Scalding Rune, Channeled Acceleration and Minor Force

after years i have picked up this game again and having alot of fun. Since im starting to get into more serious content (veteran trials for example) one thing really seems to be off on my magicka damage dealer: Nowadays the Minor Force buff is a must have in every raid and there are only two practical ways for this buff. One is the Trap Beast ability and its morphs from the Fighers Guild. This stamina ability feels really bad on magicka classes but are very common to see. The second option is Channeled Acceleration from the Psijic Order skill line. And let's be honest with this ability, the 1.3 second cast time feels horrible for what it does.

Then we have the Mages Guild skill line opposing the Fighters Guild. There is this ability called Scalding Rune (Fire Rune morph) that works very similar to Trap Beast but is a magicka ability and actually offers some useful passives for magicka classes. On top of that: this ability is currently very underperforming in PvE, because it lacks damage in comparison to almost every other damage over time ability in the game. So why not add Minor Force to the damage over time duration of the Scalding Rune morph? I think this a huge missed opportunity by ZoS and would make this ability actually worthwhile.

Im not exactly sure what to do about Channeled Acceleration but it should not be that hard to come up with something better than two buffs that do not even synergize behind a 1.3 second cast time which feels alot in endgame content. But since Minor Force is such an important buff for endgame players, it should not be gated for half of the community (magicka) while being freely availabe for the other half (stamina).

Best Regards,

PvE tanks use it. June 2020 Yes, Minor Force on Scalding Rune would be great. June 2020

If you're worried about the cast time on Channeled Acceleration go with the other morph, Race Against Time. It has a shorter duration but is instant-cast.

I did some testing with that a while back. It’s surprisingly not too far off from Channeled Accel for DPS. This is because for a 36 second duration, Channeled requires skipping 2 GCD’s (typically spammables) and 1 Light Attack to cast, while RAT requires 3 GCD’s but doesn’t skip any Light Attacks. The main thing Channeled has going for it is the ability to pre-cast before combat and use 0 GCD’s for the first 36s (or 50s with Jorvulds on a buff loadout). And the main downside I found with RAT is that you spend 3X the Magicka to keep the same uptimes as Channeled.

Barbed Trap is almost always the answer, instant, free for your mag pool, longer duration than RAT, and deals a little damage itself. However using it on a mag build just feels bad, despite it being more effective than both Channeled and RAT, which is why Minor Force on Scalding Rune would be an excellent solution.

At this point i completely dropped Scalding Rune from my rotation. Its damage is just awful even on my Magicka Dragonknight and its cast animation screws with my light-weaving. Im currently using Eruption, Wall of Elements and Barbed Trap as my damage over time abilites on my backbar until ZoS acknowledges that Scalding Rune does too little and definitely needs a buff like adding minor force to it.

On trash fights im pre-buffing myself with Channeled Acceleration and Molten Armaments because most fights do not take longer than 36 seconds. So even in trash fights Scalding Rune seems to be useless because of the long time to activate combined with its really small radius making it unusable on larger groups.

Then there's still the Necrotic Orb that adds utility for the whole group and does decent damage. Another reason not to pick up Scalding Rune and at this point there is not room left on my skill bar to slot it at all.

Race Against Time has to be buffed too often to be viable and always eats a whole GCD. Barbed Trap at least adds some damage over time. RAT is probably nice to have in PvP but i see not use in PvE for it.

It's really telling that Mag dps have to use a stamina ability to acquire a sought after buff.

Not only is it a stam ability, it also goes makes ranged dps move into melee dps range. Yeah it might not be a huge deal but it's silly to see.

Inb4 ZoS takes away minor force from trap beast for "balance".

My main issues with Barbed Trap are the range and that it thematically does not fit magicka playstyles at all except maybe Warden. Since its a buff that every damage dealer needs it should probably be more available to them.

Scalding Rune actually deals a pretty decent amount of damage with an elf bane set up. But I agree that adding minor force to it would make it a go-to and vastly accessable on much more set ups and builds. This is a suggestion that pops up almost every other month it seems, and I really hope zos considers it. Channeled acceleration would be better if it gave you some other buff.

Right! We've all been conditioned with very low expectations. ANY other game would of fixed this years ago, ESO has been around for 6 years and only added a magicka version of minor force on its 4th year through a paid guild skill line. It's not even a great alternative because it does 0 damage from a utility skill. One option is low duration, but instant and the other is high duration, but a lengthy cast time. It's a no brainer to just use barbed trap for the best of both worlds and then some.

I mean c'mon, Mages Guild and Fighters Guild are practically mirrors of each other with one being Magicka and the other Stamina. Look at some of the skills, Fire Rune and Trap Beast.. Magelight and Expert Hunter. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to notice that these skill lines must of been designed with each other in mind, which should highlight how obvious it is to add Minor Force to the "trap" skill of the Mages Guild. Why an esential buff like that wasn't duplicated to the other skill line is beyond my level of understanding and shows ZOS is so disconnected with how their pve functions, that they actually though RAT/Channeled Acceleration was the answer to Mag DPS prayers.

It's just dissapointing, it teaches the playerbase to have very low expectations because ZOS is so slow with meaningful quality of life changes to the core of their game. It only took them 5 years to make base class skills for Major Brutality/Sorcery provide both in the base skill instead of requiring a specific morph, which again, should be obvious. I wonder how long we will need to wait for this change to go through.. Maybe by 2023?

Reviews for "Good Witch's Catherine Bell: A Source of Inspiration for Viewers"

1. Samantha - 2 stars - I was really excited to watch "Catherine Bell Good Witch" after hearing so many positive reviews, but I was thoroughly disappointed. The acting felt forced and the storyline was predictable and cliché. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and found myself bored throughout most of the show. I was expecting something more captivating and magical, but instead, I was left feeling underwhelmed.
2. Mark - 1 star - "Catherine Bell Good Witch" is one of the worst shows I've ever seen. The dialogue is cheesy and the plot is incredibly dull. I found myself rolling my eyes at the overused tropes and lack of originality. The acting was subpar, and it felt like the actors were just going through the motions. I couldn't stand watching more than a few episodes before I had to give up on it altogether. Save yourself the time and find something better to watch.
3. Emily - 3 stars - While "Catherine Bell Good Witch" had its moments, overall, I found it to be a lackluster show. The characters lacked depth and the writing was mediocre at best. The supposed magical elements felt forced and out of place, making it difficult to suspend disbelief. There were a few episodes that had potential, but the majority of the show fell flat. It's definitely not a series I would recommend to anyone looking for an engaging and well-developed storyline.
