Nerf Volcanic Rune - Enough Already ( ZOS tested this and found it to be working as intended)
-
Zenzu✭✭not an overpowered skilll, just a popular one.
Its used for escapes and engages, not dps.
Some solo players just interpret some weird things when they have no idea what is going on. Organized groups use it for holding positions, etc. Hence why you see a bunch go out at once. If you don't like it slot immovable Mr. stamina build, you should be able to constantly keep it up and uncc'able. The dps isn't good on volcanic rune, just the area of effect cc.0 -

That's reassuring I guess. This skill has been absolutely required for me to complete much of the high Vet solo areas as a NB. Without this it would have been very difficult for me to tackle many of the 3 mob packs (especially casters) without an ultimate up.0 -
Ysne58✭✭✭✭✭I typically use it once in a battle at the very beginning as a surprise attack. After that I would only hit one, maybe two of the mobs. It doesn't do all that much damage either it does help. I use resto staff, but I have on a mix of armor, depending on what I find as I level up. I am a nightblade.
This is not an over powered skill in any way shape or form.0 -

Somewhere the ESO board resident nerf herder is stamping his feet and throwing a tantrum6 -
kasain✭✭✭As a sor, I never use it. It is a skill anyone can use. Thus no nerf.
Stop nerfing yourself and something every player has access to.
If you don't like it don't play. Wow would like your sub $$
No nerfs for anything until console comes out only buffs.1 -
TwoClips✭✭So they test it out and find it working properly.
Thats some serious BS.
Now explain to me that they tested out DK's obsidian shield and found out that it needed to have increased heal instead of shield increase on caster? Im a tank not a F****** healer.1 -
kasain✭✭✭Well the player deserved shield bash nerf. Anyone who calls for anytype of nerf should expect any trait for their job or passive fair game to nerf. Regardless how good or bad it is.
That's what many people fail to understand. 05% of people will say nerf shield bash, nerf bolt, nerf xyz and so many other things. But they won't give suggestions or new active trait its or passives on their current job traits. To make them effective.
That in turn makes this game failure. people can't love their job if they ask to nerf others, but not say how they would buff theirs.
A classic example of this right now I slight armor and rest staff. or to a lessor extent destroy staff. 90% of people are getting on a nerf bandwagon, and give no insight or advice how to buff heavy med armor. How to build weapon builds or stamina better.
They just cry NERF NERF NERF, like an angry mob.
The people using this skill are getting exp for whole party. Armor for party and keeping the party going. Who cares how it is done. It is working so it does not need to be fixed.
In the end every job should be balanced like sorcerer. It is truly the only job done 90% right out of box.
A player should want to show off this game compared to other MMOS. How cool their job play is. Not say nerf everything so no one would sub or say wow so boring. Look at my MMO and its job and all it can do.
So please stop with ANY NERF. Offer suggestions

I understand that "you" play as a tank, but why think Dragonknight is designed to be a tank? As I recall, no class is designed to be used solely for any one of the "trinity roles".0 -
Phantorang✭✭✭✭Please, let this thread die already. Everything has been said, and we all agree Volcanic Rune is nice as it is, except 1%, but as they are trolls, they will keep on going until we die of old age.Fimbulwinter Recruiting true Vikings | Campaigns score | EU PC0 -

I'm pretty sure he'll just abandon the thread. His entire argument was that he felt it was an exploit and expected ZOS to take look at it and agree with him.
Now that they've officially responded and said it's working as intended, I'm sure he'll move on to whatever his next nerf crusade may be.3 -

Lol assumptions are dangerous.
Thank you ZOS for the testing and the response . It is a pleasure to see a company allow their customers to raise a concern - test it and find the concern is unwarranted and the customer was wrong
We should all be happy . As an MMO consumer of over 10 years this approach is novel and awesome. Other companies simply delete threads and don't bother. You have restored my faith.
I was wrong , thank you for checking .

It is enough for me0 -

If they were on the ball there would be melee dps templar builds."Now I stand, the lion before the lambs and they do not fear. They can not fear." --Arthas Menethil (aka, The Lich King)2 -
Stratti✭✭✭✭✭I don't know about that but this thread is only two days old and it has been tested and deemed working as intended .
I know in the road ahead they said they are looking at NB. Have some faith they will fix it. Give them a few months to balance everything - WoW was the same in early vanilla0 -

Exactly. They didn't even mention templars other than to apologize for the puncturing strikes nerf they forgot to test or even put in the patch notes. I hope you are right, but after reading the road ahead post I had a sinking feeling that almost makes me want to unsub. Because there was no indication they are even aware of how bad it is for melee dps templars. That tells me it is probably going to be a long time before we become viable."Now I stand, the lion before the lambs and they do not fear.

It is obvious they are keeping an eye on the forums . I would say keep the faith the game is still new and if you enjoy it then it's worth sticking around to see them fix it. Hopefully it isn't too long but I feel for you and other NB0 -

Well I think that says it all but more importantly id say its safe to assume that other similar skills are also working as intended. I would like to thank the OP for providing us irrefutable proof that supports the majority of this communities view on the development of this game and hopefully this thread can be used as a source to refute any further claims of imbalance issues.
Can we pin this?
No kidding.0 -

Lol no - I have responded to it. I was wrong and thanked them for testing . It's a good thing that customers can question something and they test it and it is then working as intended
No need for that sort of thing

lasma799✭This is one of the FEW skills that allow subpar classes to make stamina builds even usable. Please do not nerf, especially since it's available to EVERYONE. Plus it's so easy to get Mage level 6. OP is obviously trolling or doesn't know how to play the game - especially since he said it isn't available to all. LOL. This is one of the skills that allow us poor NB's to stay alive in vet content.Edited by lasma799 on June 6, 2014 10:56PM0
