Also, one reason I like resto staff back bar is you will have that ultimate up for the burn phase, which can provide the critical difference if your DPS isn't on point.. Don't forget the Haste glyph, My favorite trick for magicka characters: you can go all out damage if you use the Lich set as a "back bar" with Lich weapons, ideally sword and shield though Destruction and Restoration Staffs work too. I would also say it *felt* like my resource management was worse, but it wasn't. When you are getting mobbed, you're not going to want to cast this, do so anyway. If you miss more than 1 webspinner/horver, you will lose and there is nothing you can do about it. A crematorium guard spawns at the beginning of wave 3 - use your spectral explosion then. There are enough HoTs here that even newer players might not need two shields (instead use Double Take to prevent incoming damage). So YOU control the pace of the fight. North American Trial of the Week; Begins on Monday at 8:00am EDT (Monday at 12pm GMT) Immediately grab defensive sigal and just LAUGH at how you can ignore this otherwise very difficult tasks of killing the adds, healing yourself, and DPSing the boss before she breaks the third platform. Before Morrowind, I would have said have at it in vMA with your heavy armor blockcasting PvP build. Your back bar should be bow and you NEED Poison Injection, Caltrops, Endless Hail, and Dark Deal. Looks like you're using new Reddit on an old browser. I also think the Restoration Staff is a strong option for healers and PvP players who use the Regeneration skill. Not a big deal. I heard Maelstrom is for players who mix-max, have max CPs with end-game gear, and beyond the capability of average playersI understand vMA has a reputation of being elitist, but I believe that is a false impression. I'd love to say ignore the summoner, but if some of your wipes are because of a bone colossus, you CANT. For us as tanks, heavy armor is the most important one. Through all this don't forget the webspinners!. With the above two in mind, I like Inferno / Resto staff. Immediately head toward the Defensive Sigil. Aren't you oversimplifying? They enter the round with an ultimate charged up and burn the boss to 70%. A clannfear will spawn. Don't waste your soul gems. Couple this with options like Blood Craze, Rally, Rapid Strikes, Blade Cloak, and Vigor (not optional I'd argue) and you have a strong toolkit to beat vMA. ... A Reddit community dedicated to The Elder Scrolls Online, an MMO developed by Zenimax Online. While fighting to survive, you can get an edge by taking advantage of four different types of Sigils that appear in each arena. Rend, Ballista, Dawnbreaker (Smiting preferred) are all legit ultimates. It's a stun, snare, and it's not easy to CC break and dodge the skull the boss throws at you. Puncturing Sweeps can keep you alive in sticky situations for a while so don't be afraid to be aggressive. You don't need Hardened + Harness if you're running Healing Ward. I am not a very good NB player, yet I found it had a very strong toolkit, almost as if ZoS designed the class specifically for this sort of content. She will use it while you are standing in the only safe spot when the spider swarm appears, so you might want to ensure no children under 13 are bear you when trying to do this fight. Prevent summoners from spawning Bone Colossus, Not die to boss's two special attacks: skulls and channeled necrotic waves. Shield because it reflects all the spits (so you take zero damage!). That leaves 1 flex spot. Two: Noticeable difficulty spike because the last two waves have difficult pulls: A Crematorium Guard + adds and then an Ogrim + NB stunner + DK taloner. The PvPish build relies on great single target burst and a restoration back-bar for heals. It's hard to describe what I do to kill them, but if you look at my video below, you can see that even with just 300 CP and meh gear, I don;t have a problem killing them. This helped me clear it after...a few attempts :-D. Why in the world does Maelstrom Arena need a walkthrough? When I was first learning this, when it got so bad, I found it necessary to restart my client (back then no save feature, so I would Task Manager force shut-down rather than log out). One is a lightning spit that snares you for 90% (fun times, a plant will spawn under you for sure) and is also a high damage DoT. He will throw a skull at you (it's a lot like the Crypt of Heart boss) - dodge or block this - and he will then teleport and then begin to channel a necrotic wave - if you don't interrupt this, you die in like 3 to 4 seconds. So run it for that challenge. They are scary but it is totally manageable if you have allow your passive DoTs to do their thing. If so, a transcription or screenshot would be appreciated. But don't go overboard here. Each stam class has a strong magicka skill that helps keep them alive: Igneous Shield, Leeching Vines, Restoring Focus, Power Surge (couple with Hurricane is ridiculous self healing), Leeching Strikes (get those weaves in!). That's the whole key to the fight. vMA (and for me all Instanced areas) begins to lag noticeably the longer I am in it. I'm telling you right now even though the Ash Titan is big and ugly, the last wave of adds is actually the most dangerous since the soul tethering NB will stun you and usually you have no stamina by this point in the fight. If the spider stops a third time and more adds spawn, you either need to improve your DPS rotation or grab the Power Sigil. Annoying, but 90% avoidable. 2. Note: I recommend tri-stat food because this stage requires a lot of stamina. In retrospect, I think a lot of my failings were L2P issues. Kill summoner. The final Boss of the Dragonstar Arena drops a random Master Weapon Set (e.g. These are of course stats we are looking for as a tank. Be sure to hold block when you hear the standard drop. Just rez at wayshrine. If you are dying because the soul churn damage is too high, JUMP OFF. Resto offer Mutagen, which makes you even more tanky. Once you go back upstairs, the Soul Churn damage is minimal and walls are slow-moving (they reset). Back in the day, the first time we got to him we had hundreds and hundreds of lives. I shouldn't have to write this, but I will. I have one of the Craglorn reward messages saved, and it has a short exchange with Mighty Mordra ribbing you about how her group would have beaten yours. Lot of damage in both pulls so you're probably going to need help from the sigils with both until you gain experience.Don;t get frustrated if you die a lot here, I still find those two pulls not easy. Join. and don't fret too much because it really doesn't matter. My advice: Inferno for stages 1 and 9, Mutagen for stage 2, Dragonfire Scales for stages 3-8. Preventatively to ensure 5 seconds of survival. Get your Dragonstar arena weapons without much sweat, our professional boosters will complete as many runs as you want 100% handmade. That extra 5% you're going to get from min-maxing isn't going to be the difference between you beating the final boss. You will be humbled. Sometimes it’s fun when it’s hard tests you to get better and not just be a 1 trick pony, Erased all the stupid references. At this point your resources are low, you no longer have the defensive sigil, and the bosses gains a chain-pull attack that will kill you if you do not CC break super fast. Even if the boss get's low on health, I still always kill webspinner/horvors to ensure the maximum amount of safe zone when a spider swarm spawns. I believe it is more efficient to DoT up and DPS whichever crystal you happen to be around rather than one at a time. Round 4: Begins with a lurcher + two adds and then another pattern of a high damaging mini-boss and two archers that spawn afterward. You need to interrupt this one way or another. Learning this will make you cry and want to quit ESO. Faster times net increased point gains. If that last crystal is low, it might be a better idea just to burn it down. Rather fight in within multiple ground DoTs while having more direct damage DoTs ticking on it. And Flame Lash is only going to pay off if you can consistently get targets off balance which isn't easy to setup when you have to tank and heal yourself. (I'd grab it after the Boss's first skull attack). Do *not* underestimate him. The speed sigil is right there. another *****in thing in the game that caters to the elite gamers! The easiest way to go about that is to use damage oriented sets, have some extra regen, and add a few utility/defensive oriented skills on your bars. Zos did make the veteran version accessible to the ESO masses by including the Power Sigils. Pet are strong DPS contributors, can sometimes draw aggro, and the Twilight offers a strong native class health. But I will have the Light's Champion ultimate up for the Crematorium Guard. Once the original two hand boss is dead, kill that Ogrim quickly, you don;t want it alive when the next wave spawns: a Crematorium Guard + a soul tethering NB. If you want to complete the content, get the achievement, get that Destruction staff or bow, use the sigils when first learning! If you want to circle strafe it like the cool kids did back in 2001 when when playing Quake 2, go ahead, but it's not necessary. Lizard Boss CC with bite attack in combo with lightning attack. Kiting is hard. But it's one that just about everyone hates because if a poison plant explodes under your feet, you are going to take very high poison damage every tick and you have to go to one of the green pools at the top or bottom of the map to cleanse it. And because I was taking more damage, that manifested in draining my resources faster. Siphoning Strikes is probably better than Elemental Drain. Wait until he uses his negate so he doesn't use it to erase your 250 cost ultimate! Before the third add wave spawns, grab the sigil (there are going to be two archers). You will doubt your ESO competence. Once a time when even the questing zones occasionally required players to use their abilities and do things like block.

A lot of people begin to have problems on the ice stage 5, stage 6 with the spider and especially the last boss in stage 9 with Voriak Solkyn always proves to be difficult.

You can transmute weapons and armor. If you stay in one spot, you'll never move in the same direction as the blades, (they go in different directions, so this is hard not to do), which is what kills you. Just takes practice wouldn’t be any fun if it was easy and they just gave you the items. As to why it felt worse, it's simply because of the main problem you will face: it is very resource intensive to heal, tank, and mitigate a lot of incoming damage. If you don't have enough stam for deadly cloak to be active, that's okay. Try to still DPS the crystals even during the wall phase. This is very stamina intensive. Seriously, Pulsar is a suboptimal skill that only works in easy as pie overland PvE content. It's prefect for folks while learning vMA. Bow is your back bar because Endless Hail is your best skill. Regular Rounds: Not much to say here because these are pretty easy. Once you know the mechanics, then use your double destro target dummy build if you are so inclined. The more conservative approach is to stay out and rely on your Ground Dots, single targets dots, and ranged heavy attacks (for resources).

Two ranged adds will spawn the third wave at about 30%. Crystal Frags is still efficient and good DPS when it procs (only ever use this skill when it does proc), but the loss of the stun dropped the skill's usefulness down a notch or two. You can you your DoTs because boss teleported, Gold Ghost (if boss gets one, this changes to Shield Sigil). The archer adds are high damage, but since you have access to the defensive sigil, you can neutralize them every round. Interrupt boss.
