To me it's more a question of game development goals rather than fairness. It's very clear from the development history of this game that ZoS is not interested in balancing around min-maxers. They take min-max into consideration, but they develop and balance content for "average" players who aren't doing things like…
A few thoughts from a very casual pvp BG player. 1. The queue takes too long. It should be 1 minute or less assuming there are at least 12 people in the queue. I believe it is broken or bottlenecks unnecessarily for unknown reasons. 2. Matchmaking based on MMR simply doesn't work to balance anything so making the queue…
@Cuyler pretty sure that build was a martial knowledge build until May when it was changed to Sun Set. molten arms / igneous adds a bit of damage, but i feel you get more damage from having an extra dot and you don't have to spend time resources casting it although i can flip my staff while casting it pretty quick. Until…
The change only "hurts" a very vocal minority who are worried they can no longer exploit a broken market. Your poor little friend needs gear? Good, carry him through a dungeon. It's all tradeable in group. I finished off all my Hist sets in less than a week (with good traits), doing one or two dungeons a night. Teamwork…
And I have the same counterpoint as I orginally did, people WERE complaining A LOT about speed before swift, they just didn't know what to complain about. Swift + Alchemy brought it to the forefront of conversation, gave it a name and a label to allow people to talk about it. Do a quick search on this forum for speedhacks…
I think the problem is uncontrolled bleed procs out the ass. Rending slashes is not OP in of itself. Twinblade and blunt, Pillar of Nirn, the 2h axe proc all stacking together with random chance are... well not so much OP... just broken. It fails to work most of the time, and when it does work the receiving end gets…
Been leveling my NB and been liking Soul Harvest (morphed from death stroke) ultimate. It comes super quick and reduces their healing 50% and buffing my damage by 20% for 6 seconds (new with patch 1.5) stack that with Rally and 40% damage bonus :) plus with Concealed weapon and use a 2 handed mace that is 60% armor…
Haven't played in about a month because of the terrible performance I was experiencing. The last sub-50 BG match I partook in, got stuck on a 3 man team put up against another full pug and a completely stacked pre-made that just mopped the floor with all of us. This wouldn't be a big deal if it was a rare or occasional…
3-4 days? The weapon swapping animation/idle has been present since BETA, come on. -_- How about the Alliance Vendor? Getting that is super important now that people like myself that want Impen traits on Monster Helm sets are forced into buying them, but hey, we've for Training now so, that makes up for it, 'cause a…
When you refine a raw resource, you can get any level (even yellow, just rare) resource from it. When you deconstruct an item, the resources are 'capped' at the level of the item. So breaking down a green, can give you a green resource but not a blue. This is why so many people want to buy unprocessed rare resources, as…
