Harder overland used to exist before tamerial 1 update and people whined so they dumbed it down.

wait, you mean now if you are high elf and have all your points on magic and used a stamina weapon the magicka damage will translate to weapon damage on the stamina weapon?

There’s been like 1 or 2 decent armor set released in the last several years lol. It’s embarrassing, as if they don’t know what their own buffs do and what stacks and doesn’t stack. Blows my mind how out of touch they are with their own combat system.

Not sure how much you PVP but I think the idea behind Lamp knight's Art is for it to make you a PVP tank buster when you have it on. There are lots of people who manage to stack resistances to completely absurd amounts and can just stand there with multiple people pounding away at them. Not sure how effective this will be vs other methods of dealing with them but I believe it's the situation they're introducing it with in mind.

Super late to the game. You clarify that NPCs can't crit you but can you crit them? Is crit chance/damage applicable in pve? My apologies for the blueberry question 😅

12:00 PST and they are still down

trash game

You look bored, dude. Head over to Ashes..

So with Null and Rele nerfed whats looking like the proc dps set? Pillar? Whorl? Aegis?

Ive had rele and nirn, with Zaan and maelstron staff for 2 years.....always average 105k. Never chaging

I don’t know. I will wait to see if it is hurt bad when it happens. I have been watching on my bars when its procing and it seems consistent with the rules.

A week ago or so my raid lead was hyping tf up runecarver null arca for being op single target, got a full set made did some content with it annd its nerfed. I swear theres a meme for it somewhere lmao

For once my procrastination saved me gold. Kept meaning to make a set of this for cavot in vlc, guess not now.

Well, I'm glad I didn't spend the time to farm Null Arca lol

Everything in the game that is fun to play with they nerf! They don't want you to have fun.

Quick question, what about the passives? wich ones we get?

Flame blossom was paired with elf bane on dragon knight or nightblade gankers and it would proc twice because it counted as a dot because it was a moving line.

flame blossom use to proc multiple times when used with the heavy set that extends fire dots(can't remember it's name) .

I had build null arca, but also didn't decon my usual set, happy that it didn't got into nerf hammer, and also convinced ill never share my setup cause this is what happens later.

Buff-Nerf-Buff-Nerf-Buff-Nerf I'm just glad I finally got off this endless carousel of crap.

Zosov's log is simply idiotic... for a year we don't pay attention to the bugged set, we fix it so that it becomes worse than it was before.

In regard to Null Arca I would say someone reported the extra damage, that got added to a log, it was checked and verified, fix was applied, log complete. Unfortunately, this is a very one dimensional way of working but I suspect its the easiest path to take during development as everything out prior to the future patches are just not as important because old versions dont make more money. Always need to move forward.

Really they cut off flame blossom? I expected old set come to shine again, but not for long it seems. Null Arca too, for only lower options of different sets for same meta over and over again.

Genuinely so sick of this combat team. Every update is just "how can we nerf this so it's not fun anymore" - the fact they've turned away people like Skinny from joining the team and helping to fix all the problems they've created for themselves, is just infuriating. It feels like they want the game to suck, and over the years they've really succeeded in that at times.

* ha-ha-ha classic* nerfing everything that performs well is typical ZoS way

Why do we even play this game still?

There are so many bugs in the game, some of them for years, but their focus are bugs that make some sets better so they come closer to the top dps sets (stormfist, now Null-Arca) or at least to be useful in some situations, other sets that come closer to the top they nerf asap (like pyrebrand)... and every year the tooltip on new sets become longer while the dps gets lower, adding stacks and minigames where i wish just more dps in procs or in stats and having a choice between competetive sets.. there are hundreds of sets in the game and most of them are underperforming or complete useless. The philosophy of the Balancing team in eso is horrible, maybe they should retire.

Im out of the loop. I've never farmed for any trials set ever so what was the scenario with null arca that ppl were abusing the bug on, PvE or PvP?

I've just lost my raid group and it made me reconsider playing ESO...I mean it's pretty money hungry, has a very exploitative In-game Store and every other update something gets ruined I love ESO, been playing it for thousands of hours, but as a Stamsorc Main who had been waiting for the pet change that was finally made last year for many years (to be able to play without them and still keep up...kinda funny that it's still worse despite being harder to play) this game and its devs just seem so distant from its community. There are SO MANY great suggestions that get ignored. They might as well just see you as a walking wallet with Stockholm syndrome.. Skinny, come play Warframe, it's wildly different to this type of MMO but the Devs don't suck and almost every new reveal is a rush...pretty much everything is earnable through trading and it's not always...this... I've gotten back into it recently and have been having a blast, such a fun game

Oh godammit I just gold out my entire nul arca armor

And Relequen remains unchanged at the top for years. Dunno why they always nerf the alternatives. When it comes to DPS Sets ESO has stopped a few years ago...

Another set falls in ZOS's mission to gut every class's parse other than Arcanist

im so glad i didnt waste transmutes building a set. dodged a big ole bullet

Wow we almost had a fun and very niche set be competitive! Thankfully it got nerfed, that was close!

Haven't played regularly in a couple years now, but keep up to date on stuff. Gotta love that they're at least consistent when it comes to releasing a ton of useless sets every year. Oh this new set is somewhat good? Can't have that! Stay in your box where you play with two of 8 sets and nothing else. Honestly, their set balancing really kills this game for me. You can't have fun with builds anymore, they're all the same.

Haven't you people learned zos loves changing sets they just wait for you to grain them and fold them out to get that hammer lol gg

They finally patched the flame blossom and elf bane combo i was using on my templar for the past 2 years. Basically if you used those 2 sets combined flame blossom changes from direct damage into a dot and it would tick 3 times instead increasing its damage 3x. Good times.

Another set ruined even though they had the answer in front of their faces to make it relevant they still decided to ruin it.

Gladly I stopped wasting my time playing the game...

Obviously, with the Rele nerf and the Null Arca nerf, there is a new powerful dps set coming in the next trial that you will have to pay for.

lol null arca was never good even before the nerf, it was a mid tier set at best and thats being generous

I would’ve classified bugged Null Arca as “situationally useful”

Nice.

I've tried parsing on PTS and live with Null Arca, and that's my results: Live: 43 procs during 185 s, so 4.3 s to proc (because of multiple procs) PTS: 28 procs during 196 s, so 7 s to proc With the same setup (the only difference is purple VS golden gear), Null-Arca DPS dropped from 10k to 6.5k, so it's -35% DPS (as expected since I got ~35% less procs)

Elf bane gave more Flameblossom ticks

Zos want so bad to ppl use relequen and coral -_-

thank you sir. these help alot

No one should be building a load out until after a patch. We have had 4 months. Farm yes gold out gear no. ZOS will always nerf what is good.

So on stamblade whats going to be the new go to for trials?

so glad i ignored null arca on my builds and only farmed it for the stickers
