If Dark Convergence is any indication (another set with many many requests to not add it to the game because it was too broken before it officially arrived) we'll have to sit through this set for a whole year before it ends up in a reasonable state.
Sets targeting specific players or groups just don't work typically because this is sandbox pvp where everyone can run the same gear and good players will be able to run stuff better. New sets like these don't work out the way you think they will. Targeting the broken mechanics in pvp would be better imo.
I don't understand how this happens so much. How can ZOS not understand how overtuned or just plain broken these set items are. I have even gone to CP imperial city or Cyrodril because I don't want to deal with the sets that already exist. I sure won't be going to those campaigns ever again if this goes live.
*sees week 3 PTS and no re-work for Nocturnal's Ploy* So, umm... who else is going to play no cp / no proc ? I know it is without CP and there are only handful of good sets, but... at least it is more fair, since everyone can only use "meh" sets & does not have CP... Seems like a way better option than having to deal with…
People do yell about broken sets on the PTS. It's not a 'fake narrative' when 3-4 months later, Zos goes, opps, we didn't know, let us nerf that into the ground, for every one of those sets, mhm? The community just dreams of a day when content is sold that is not already destined for the nerf train because it is balanced.…
"1 v 1 the set isn't good" this is not true at all. not allowing your opponent to ever have major resolve is the equivalent of having a set better than 5 pc stuhn with almost 100% uptime. they try to buff? eliminate it. this is the best dmg 5 pc in the game for that reason alone. it also eliminates potion buffs, which is a…
you can have these benefits by having dmg and high hitting combinations. you dont have to remove buffs to make outnumbered fights difficult. they're already difficult. there's already debuffs that exist in the game that counteract buffs. major and minor fracture for resolve, cost increase poisons and other sets for…
Tbh. It is actually more broken than original Oakensoul on PTS could ever hope to be... and Oaken got adjusted... twice. On the last update PTS and on this update PTS. It is actually not even sad at this point but rather kinda baffling & even funny that a set that provides a buff to your stats can't be OP, but sets that do…
