AoE+Buggy restoration staff (wins any veteran dungeon)

Post » Fri Mar 14, 2014 10:34 am

Watched a video with a veteran content: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuR8DAU9EWE&feature=youtu.be

Notice how much they use the AoE spam? It's like 80% of the time.

They also said restoration staff is buggy that restores magicka, yet there was a nerf just recently for the templars.

About the veteran dungeon's final boss, there is a mechanic that you needed to dodge, yet Nybling is taking the damage on its face. I'm feeling that this game will have an easy end game content.

Buggy how? There's a couple of ways to restore magicka utilizing a resto staff. The heavy attack procs a magicka restoration on the third tic. Healing Springs, a morph of Grand Healing, returns magicka. And Siphon Spirit, a morph of Force Siphon, causes damage to the target to restore magicka.

Also, if I recall, Nybling can loadout for tank sorc which is the tankiest build I know of. It hits not just soft caps, but hard caps.

Keep in mind, we haven't seen Adventure Zones yet. I have no doubts ZOS will find ways of challenging us in PvE.

If you read the comments of the video, 2 of the PTS testers admitted of the restoration staff bug. After reading that, it's like every time they use resto staff, I'm thinking they are cheating.

EDIT: and if you look at his stats at 19:18, he invested all on health per level and he hasn't even reached soft cap for that stat.

One dude died during an earlier fight, and several times they dropped below 10% on the last fight. The comments section is telling me these guys have been farming content for a while, meaning most groups doing this would have died a number of times.

I don't really have an opinion, because I have no frame of reference not having played the game myself.

I don't know what you mean (and others in the comments) mean by AoE spam = easy? Do you mean a higher need for crowd control... or what?

Yes for higher need of CC. Still, they have 3 sorc as far as I know. I thought this game would have a trinity of some sort. Again, look at Nybling's health when he showed his stat on 19:18, NO SOFT CAP at maximum point allocation.
