New Overpowered Tank Set - Update 42 Patch Notes - Gold Road | Elder Scrolls Online 

Thanks - great work dude. Just recorded my U42 summary and it's VERY reassuring to hear you reach the same conclusions.

It is so odd to me that templar tanking isn't given more attention by ZOS. The paladin archetype is *right there*, but hampered by templar being, ironically, lackluster.

Nice video dude, thanks for the info! Also thank you for calling out that nonsense about templar tanking creeping into the scene. I LOLd big time when I read that dev comment lmao!

Blazing Spear getting an immobilize will only further hinder tanking. Adds that can get CC immunity that a Templar DD or even healer is attacking will now be basically permanently CC immune. Also, many Templars use trash setups that use Blazing Spear as their spammable. That will make it more of a headache tanking trash pulls and pulling and stacking adds as entire groups of adds will be CC immune to pulls.

Excellent, Hyper. Thanks.

Werewolf tanks not being tied to tormentor at the hip is honestly insane. Sure it's still a meme, but like now it's a viable meme

My first thought with the Steamguards wasn't for tanks at all. I think it's really good for groups that want to have no "tank" tank. Enabling a dps to weather things like Olms swipes or Z'maja heavy. I don't like that conceptually but that's what first came to my mind reading them

Thank you for the concise video sir!

Also xoryns is pre multiplier values... i tested and got over 3k more resources and enden up closer to 300 weapon and spell damage.. totally worth it

Thanks for the info

I don't know really but maybe the 11% crit damage on Lucent echoes is meant for the normal state of the set and the 15% is for the legendary state of the set, it can be seen like that if we take the order one by one (12% for the level after, 13% for the rare one, 14% for the epic one and 15% for the legendary)

*Great Video*👊🏻

prepare for werewolf kynes 🐺

Would it not be worth to just throw the xoryns set on a dd it would be a slight dps gain overall right? And the extra mag and stam would be nice for the tanks

Lucent echoes is nice, but as you said it just replaces EC so it will still probably be a situational set. Still will be something worth having, but not something absolutely required for meta tanking.

Hey Hyper, could you go over vampirism and which encounters would benefit a lot from them?

Time for a Vamp overhaul.

that block mythic sounds like it's trying to play off the same kind of feeling of landing a parry or perfectly timed guard like the insta-guard/adept guard with Lance in Monster Hunter (and probably souls but idk how they work there). But those typically reward you with a counter attack window, or at least an opportunity to punish an enemy action. In the case of insta-guard in Monster Hunter if we take inspiration, it allows a unique attack as a follow-up, it makes the guard action cost 0 stamina as well and completely negates any knockback effect instead of just reducing them. I think the cost reduction in itself might not be enough of an incentive on its own here. CC mitigation can be achieved in much easier ways than a timed 0.5s window guard. If I were to try and give ideas on what the payoff should be I'd imagine concepts like this: A bit of extra mitigation on activating block within 0.5s of a sticky DoT being applied,, applied to the whole DoT on successful proc which would need careful balancing being a major source of incoming damage in lots of trial content. Absolutely not a 99% figure like what's proposed. or More PvP oriented, activating block within 0.5s of an attack hitting you would bounce back any CC effect that attack would otherwise inflict to you onto the attacker. Then the cooldown might be more justified to avoid spam block clicking to proc. But at this point I'm not even sure what I would do with it overall anyways, if I wanted that kind of gameplay I would try and get it from a different game.

After Tormentor AOE Taunt takem away I remade my WW Templar Tank into a stamplar WW.

Maybe them saying that Templar tanks have been slowly creeping onto the scene means there has been more of an uptick of Templar tanks in general, I've actually seen an increase in Templar tanks the past few patches. Hell I've mained a Templar tank the entirety of the game, and I've played since before Summerset, not sure how long before but way before is all I know.

sorry hype but where did you get those two images with the precise % at minute 8.12?

yh iv only ever seen 1 templar tank my mate grizz surprised nobody really goes for it to tank

Could Steamguards be good for dots? .5 seconds of a dot being mitigated doesn't sound too bad in some cases.

is there a difference between the "critical damage taken" wording on Elemental Catalyst and the increased critical damage of Lucent Echoes? or do they both provide simple crit damage regardless of the wording?

idk but have werewolfs still some of the sword and shild passivs activ wile in werewolf form? specially block damage mitigation?

Where in the set composition do you think will be the Lucent Echoes? What will it replace?

Like the chicken helmet

Ive got my Captain America cosplay ready to go!

5:52 😂😂😂😂😂

finally a set that buff me AND the team, tired of wearing shit that do things only for others... i am not a healer i am supposed to be a tank ffs

My god thanks for fucking destroying my favourite archetype (WW tank) in one patch and then revive it in the next one. It becomes the tradition for them XD So what's your opinion for BIS WW tank gear? Turning tide + Rush of Agony+oakensoul (because now we have major protection, so it's even more tankier, so we just lack of minor resolve) or Spaulder of Ruin for group utility? RoA just because we lose aoe fear, so now this is the only one "CC" for mobs we have.

Reducing your damage taken by 90% now

Nightblade tanks not even on the list of SE tanks :/

just because people aren't using templar tanks in the hard modes dosent mean they aren't being used at all a better representation would be regular vet clears. and not that it matters but there is a blade tank clear for vse hm this patch, its just marked as a wipe the log is in the tank help section of your discord server.

Will get nerfed anyway

It is another sad day, because ZOS, gives love to many classes and skill sets like Werewolf and Vampire, whilst nerfing Necromancers out of existence. I wonder; Why create a new class only years later, to nerf it to the point of un-playable, PVE or PVP?

I'm ready to be called a trol and get kicked out of the group

Note, that Lucent buffs players' crit modifier, whereas Catalyst buff target's crit damage taken, they're not the same, and the latter helps overcome the 125% cap. And Lucent doesn't.

honestly from your synopsis on the blocking mythic, im really side eye-ing this channel now... like are you just ignoring sturdy builds? lmfao
