Why You Should NEVER Parse PvP Builds in ESO

  • Lately I've been receiving a surprisingly high number of questions about parsing PvP Builds in ESO Elder Scrolls Online like you would a PvE build, so it gave me the idea to make this video to show why you should NEVER do that.

    Just something to add: There was a difference in attacks blocked in the PvP parses, but if you look total damage does still favor engulfing, and in a separate test I ran prior to recording for the video I got the same results with no block difference. Just wanted to clarify in case anyone thought that's why the results were the way they were.

    • @dottzgaming

      Simply how much damage you deal to a target dummy over a period of time. Think of it as a "DPS test"

    Hi Dottz, can you maybe explain the difference between Impen and reinforced. On the stats Reinforced looks good and its also viable to use the build in PVE content. I would actually think the difference is small but maybe you can give some more insight on this topic =)

    • @dottzgaming
      @dottzgaming  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Impen has a greater reduction to burst dmg since it reduces the critical damage spikes you receive, which is more valuable than a small amount of armor that can be penetrated through

      There are not really a stam and mag tank since tank use both resources pool. But in general u will want more stamina pool than magic pool bec some skill provide a thing called synergy which upon active it u get resources back. And the common one healer provide, give rources of your higher resources pool.

    Agreed - but you can still work out combo parses that do not rely on Crit as a major factor (like Inner Light). Another point to support your video is a boss or dummy certainly doesn’t move like a player does. I learned the hard way working on a DW, Briarheart build for my Stam sorc - bottom line, Flurry is no Jabs when it comes to pvp! Lol Back to the drawing board!

    problem with this showcase is your character isn't a crit class/race if you play magplar khajiit you benefit a lot from crit dmg ,but if you are not have a enough crit dmg to push you should dremove crit dmg and chance complete from your set/skill IMO
    ps.:crit dmg only hits hard on templar and NB what I tested so far with my friend, my dk not even has crit instead I focused on armor pen. raw dmg.

      It's still worth it to have Crit yes, it helps with getting Crit heals and for nice dmg spikes, but it's definitely a less important stat compared to other things like dmg, resources, etc.

    • @boofmcgoof1534
      @boofmcgoof1534 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends on your build. If you're a kahjit Night blade or Templar run'n all divines with the shadow mundus & the Senches Bite set,you'll notice your crits.
      If you're an orc stam sorc run'n n
      New Moons set,focus on getting your wep damage & penetration HIGH as Woody Harrison in quarantine & just try to keep your crit rate above 30%.
      Min max means min max'n some things over others.
      Some sorc builds have high crit not for the damage,but for the heals.
      Some Necro's have absalutely abysmal crit rate,but make up for it with their passives.
      Ideally,your weapon(or spell) dmg , your penatration ,your cit dmg & crit rate are all high as Fawk,but you can't have it all,so it becomes a question of which will help your build the most.
      Nightblades (& all archers) have an easy & cheap source of major fracture,but even major & minor fracture stacked ontop of eachother won't get through all nuts.
      Same goes for crit dmg in an inpen meta.

      The phrase comes from “log parsing”. In other words you can get addons that record everything that happens in a combat (typically with a target dummy), then that data is analyzed. People who do trials especially live by these. They use it to tune their gear/skills. The point of this video was to say that PvP can’t be tuned the same way.

It's not a pvp term cause as you said, we don't do it. I still kinda sorta am not sure what you're even talking about cause I've never used a dummy and haven't touched pve in years (got what I needed for pvp and never touched it again). I hope it's helpful for I guess pve players looking to pvp but it's a wash for me.

      It does not matter because his opponent is running full impenetrable and his critical hits would do about the same damage as non-critical hits. That's why 10% flat damage increase is so much better than additional critical strike chance plus maximum magicka.

      I ran this test multiple times and found the same results each time. I'm fully aware Crit is RNG which is why I ran this multiple times, I guess I should have shown all of my tests in case I got a comment like this . In addition, fights in PvP also do it last as long as a 6m dummy parse most of the time, so short burst tests are a good indicator of what a PvP scenario will be like. Also, I never said Crit is bad here, show me where I said that. Crit is, like u said, great for burst healing AND I even say that in a comment response to someone, it also does help increase your chances to have higher burst spikes, but it doesn't have the same value that it does in pve. This test/video was to indicate how and why what makes a build good for PvP does NOT translate into pve.
