Add a synergy that enemies activate and does oblivion damage to them.

I was thinking the other day about how every synergy was something that you activate and don’t think anything of it.

I think it would be nice if we got a set that has a synergy to it and the enemy activates it. Dealing damage and de buffing themselves. Making it to where you have to actually think about what synergy you’re activating.

    Unnecessary load to the server and leaves room for the people to grief even more by becoming the VD/Occult Overload conduit for their friends in other factions by intentionally synergizing only that.

    More chaos in an ordered PvP system would be great, but I can see how a person playing DK all day and WW running in a zerg would oppose it.

    People would just create a synergy blocker for it, so you could t activate it, in the same way there are blockers for the explosion in HRC.

    And the same addon will be used to grief players by the sad people that faction hop to troll by activating only the said synergy and intentionally being a vd/occult overload conduit.

    There are trolls out there with real sad attention seeking behaviors that would, for example, RP walk with the faction scroll for the faction that they are targeting to troll (also, while on the intentionally badly built characters with very low HP so that their friends can come and bomb the scroll). ZOS already kind of does nothing until serious legal remification causing actions are done by the trolls (i.e., serious stalking/harassment of both sexual and non-sexual nature). Things like this would definitely be abused by likes of them.

    How would you prioritize the beneficial synergies over the detrimental synergies?

    Would you just be locked out of using synergies until the detrimental synergies went away, or would you just have to activate them in order to get back to using the beneficial synergies if the detrimental synergies wouldn't disappear?

    They said a "set" so it would have a set time limit, effect, or area of control by design. And it would also disappear if the wearer died. But what if a trillion people wore that set? Well then that's tactics.

    ZOS really should add trick play back into the game because the lack of it means that poor balancing has a more pronounced effect on combat than it would otherwise.

    Would also be cool if a siege existed that could reverse healing in an area. But we can only dream.
