On the fb I doubt there is a high chance for overpenetrating so sharpened looks better on paper to me, but does anyone here have enough experience with that? Cookie Notice I'd claim that if it's giving a 10% crit damage boost, it'll out perform Mage or Apprentice with a good amount of crit. The most commonly used Mundus Stones at end-game are the Thief and Shadow Mundus Stones. Nirnhoned vs Reinforced ( Armour ) / Sharpened ( Weapons ) ESO - Best Weapon Traits for PvP Ranked | Deadlands DLC The Real Godzilla 22.5K subscribers Join Subscribe 213 Share Save 6K views 1 year ago What is going on guys! Single Target damage is any damage that only has the potential to hit one target. Damage abilities are combinations of the damage types listed above. Any penetration over the enemys armor amount will be wasted and not increase damage further. Critical Damage in ESO is a 50% boost to damage done at its base level. Once you have an enchantment on your weapon, you can trigger it with any light or heavy attack. I recorded what Funnel Health gave. Sharpened vs Precise I'm currently do 39k DPS self buffed with just Ele Drain on my MagSorc, I use a Precise Moondancer Lightning staff and a Nirnhoned vMA staff. If you have penetration from light armor, spinner, and lover (about 11k total), no CP, adding sharpened might give you nothing against a light player or overworld enemy due to overpenetration, but 4-5% against a medium or heavy player. (PVE) wont having sharpened on my staff also increase the penetration of my normal sorceror abilities as well? This is simply the ratio of light attacks per second over the course of a certain period. The difference in these types comes from the Twin Blade and Blunt passive. You can craft the Sharpened trait by using the Fire Opal material. AoE (Area of Effect) damage is any damage dealt that hits multiple targets or covers an area that would have the potential to hit multiple targets. However, if we had 18200 penetration in our build, they would not resist any of our attack and we would get our full attack value. An example of this is Flurry. Finally a reason not to play League of Legends. Sturdy and Reinforced can also have value for specific builds. I know it is a lot of information to take in and that the systems in ESO are fairly deep and complicated, but eventually, if you keep at it, they will start to make sense! Just make sure you arent letting your DoT abilities fall off for too long, you are landing your light attacks between each ability, and you are operating as closely to the 1s GCD as possible. As many abilities are on different timer lengths, some rotations can be trickier than others to keep everything active. Spell Damage increases the damage that your Magicka based attacks hit for and Spell Critical increases the chance for each of those hits to be a critical strike.
