I play on a one x from Australia on the xbox NA server and increasingly over the course of the last ~2 years the lag in this game has gone from bad, to worse and to now borderline unplayable this update. In not even peak time PVP I would say you get choppy framerates of 10< more often than not with that moving to at times ~1fps near the zergs and without fail getting a long loading screen at every keep change. In areas like wayrest and mournhold Im barely able to bar swap (let alone animation cancel)which can take up to 3-4 seconds depending. I can see why so many people have quit PVP entirely or are forced to run cheesy fire and forget playstyle dot builds, sword and boards, 30k+ health on everything and lingering health pots just to deal with an eventual like spike that will likelylead to death. So my question is do ZOS acknowledge how bad the state of the game is, do they plan to improve it and can they add a FPS counter so I can laugh at it as I mash the same button for the 5th time to still not have my ability cast.

Do ZOS even acknowledge how laggy the game has become?

Carve Bleed
Not sure if I'm getting this right but PTS notes said all focussed AoE damage will be reduced by ~33% on those skills.
Carve is a weird one. ZoS likely sees it as an AoE, so the mitigation now applying to bleeds will cost it ~25% damage, and the 9% extra damage reduction will bring that to ~33%.
But Carve isn't and AoE like Liquid Lightning, Hail of Arrows, Wall of Elements or Caltrops, etc. It's a melee swipe for moderate AoE damage that leaves a DoT.
I feel not only that the nerf to this skill seems to be strange given how other melee AoE skills have been left intact but on top of that the portion of this that was nerfed was a DoT.
Sure, a DoT that could apply to multiple enemies if you had them in a cone but not a ground-based one. Carve also doesn't hit as many targets as a true AoE regularly does and in PvP, can be cleansed, whereas a true AoE cannot.
I think Carve might end up a very weak and possibly dead skill is its DoT takes a hit like that. For PvE, already nobody uses Carve since DW/Bow outclasses everything. But with this hit, even in PvP, the limited use this skill saw will be greatly diminished. Asside from spamming it or Brawler with Masters Two-Handed.
And I seeing this wrong? Will you guys slot carve in PvE or PvP after this? I sure won't.

One character cannot load the imperial city.
One of my characters cannot access the imperial city districts. Everything else is working fine. But if I try to access the districts, I am caught in a infinite load screen.

A Taxonomy of Cyrodiil Player Types
This is my very biased take on the subject since I have only ever played one character.
Cyrodiil Player Types
The Noob
Hey, this pvp sounds pretty cool. I just hit level 50 and I'm feeling good. Time to try this Cyrodiil thing out. Oh, look that castle is glowing on the map. I had better ride over there. Ouch. Hey how do I get out of Cyrodiil.
The PvE Guy
This is stupid, but I really want those achievements and skyshards. I'll try and avoid the main loop and ride out in the wilderness. Towns with quests should be sanctuaries!
The Potato
This is pretty fun. I'm sure this impenetrable trait is just a bunch of nonsense. All divines will really make me powerful. Maybe I'll join a group of like-minded individuals and light attack some guys to death.
The Capable Casual
I seldom go to Cyrodiil but when I do, I've got 810 CP and some impen. I can do vet dungeons. I can break CC. This just increased my survivability by 100%
The Baller
I’ve made some friends online and I can receive and follow orders on VOI. I’ve got a negate. Proxy up.
The Tower Runner
Here they come finally. Cue the Benny Hill music because I’m going to run circles while I wait for my ultimate to charge.
The 1 v X’er
I’m really good. I know all the best trees and rocks on the map.
The Ganker
Why does everybody have so much hp? Please don’t have a detect potion. I hope this guy can’t break the stun very fast. Damn.
The Sniper
Why does everybody hate me so much?
Bunny Hopping Sorc
I was a Call of Duty legend. It works in an FPS so it’s got to work here. I’d stop if I could, but I can’t.
The Hurricane
I feel so underappreciated, but I won’t switch to a mag sorc because damn I love this visual effect and nightblades hate it. And I really hate nightblades.
The Tank
I’m all out here alone. There, yonder approacheth the Zerg. Less than 20 players and I will survive.
PvDoorers
Let’s go take KC. I’m sure that nobody is home.
Roller Blade
Hit or catch me if you can. I don’t even need cloak.
The Fossilizer
You’re stuck here. I just hope you can’t figure out how to break it.
The Duelists
This empty space in the middle of the road between BRK and Sej? looks like the perfect place for a duel.
The Siege Swiper
Hey, look a siege engine that doesn’t have anybody standing there. I don’t mind if I do.
The Siege Turner
My buddies are running that tower farming my own alliances potatoes. I will turn your siege around and then lecture you on how disrespectful this use of siege is. Oh, I’m a Legendary Idiot.
The Zone Chat General
GO HERE. GO THERE. GO EVERYWHERE.

Stay tight, keep healing up, dump those ultimates together, time to find those rocks. Get the squishy one. Man what a bunch of potatoes. Nom. Nom. Nom.
The Three Man Mag Sorc Edition
Nah. No thanks.
The Troll
One man, one siege and a whole lot of patience.
The Bridgeburners
Yep, this bridge is totally going down. And maybe I’ll get to watch the slaughterfish get a good meal.

Game is still stagnant..!
Checking back after 6 months and still no max CP increase and no flying mounts. What the hell you all been doing at ZOS land?! Game is still stagnant. So much for forward progress. You all need to put me in the director's chair at ZOS. Nice to see same glitches, bugs and crashes, though. No ESO plus or buying another chapter until max CP increase is reinstated and there are flying mounts! Oh well, will check back after another 6 months or so. You all keep enjoying the game.

Don't destroy this game, please.
I have never cared about changes to meta or whenever that you guys at ZOS keep nerfing one patch and buffing the next and nerfing it again. But this U23 needs to be addressed on a very serious note. You are taking away everything individual from a class and in the process making the game very bland.
Now, I don't care if PetSorcs are nerfed (I main one) but Sorcerers should be different in their playstyle, in their healing abilities, in their damage abilities to every other class. Similarly, you can replace the word Sorcerer with Templar, Warden, DK, NB, Necro whatever. They NEED to feel different to each other.
If everyone is going to run entropy and soul trap whether they are a templar or a sorc, whats the point of classes? Might as well make one class.
I think this is not the right direction for the game. And I am also sure that the developers will probably never read this and even if they do, they won't consider it because that's how the pattern seems to be.
But I had to say something when I see the only game I play since 2015 and love, going down the sewers. I genuinely hope sense prevails.

Moment of Reckoning | PC/NA | Trials | DISCORD
Moment of Reckoning is recruiting new and veteran players to the guild. While anyone can join the guild we do have requirements for trial teams which is listed below.
About Us:
We are a PVE guild that was formed on the goal of not having to use the dungeon finder or area chat for group content. Starting off on Xbox and moving to PC we have learned a lot and we are still learning and working toward making our guild welcoming for people with no experience to all experience.
What we offer:
- Monthly 50% raffle (often with 2nd and 3rd place rewards as well).
- Master Crafters to help with all of your crafting needs.
- Free vampire and werewolf bites as available.
- Dungeon teams based around YOUR schedule. These team complete dungeons for gear, Monster sets, achievements, skins, and just for the sake of completion.
- Trial Teams in three different categories -
Casual Trial Team (Open Night) – This team does not have a set time or day yet. This team has no requirements, it is a casual night for guildies to do coffer runs and get the gear they may need from normal trials.
Progression Trial Team – This team is constantly trying to improve by pushing for higher DPS (minimum 25k to join), improving strategy, and completing harder content. All members must be 160+ CP. Members must be able to learn from success as well as failure and be willing to improve as a team and at a personal level. Due to the nature of this team, members are expected to make every effort to attend each week. Being on this team allows you to improve and as everyone gears up and gets to 35k DPS the team or individual members will transition into a Veteran Trial Team. (Due to the nature of this team being progression, biweekly parses from dps will be required, as well as Character screenshots so that we can help with gearing and keep track of each member progress.)
Veteran Trial Team - This team is the same as a progression trial team with a few differences. Dps will be required to hit a 35k parse. All members must be 300+ CP. This team will strive to push through veteran trials and eventually hard modes. Members on this team are expected to show up every week so that the team can progress into the hardest content in the game. There will be a mechanics lead that members are expected to listen to so that the team can excel.
The current schedule for trials is:
- Progression Trial Team Sunday’s 5pm CST
- Veteran Trail Team Friday’s 8:15m CST
(Please note, once these teams are formed, we plan on forming more teams depending on guild demand. So even if this fill, we will have more openings as we get more members.)
Want to join?
Please join our discord server and follow step-1 and step-2

Mulaamnir PC NA (Kyne/BWB NA PC - Final)
Against my better judgment, I will give this one last go. I believe that, for the most part, the discussions have been fun and enjoyable. I feel that I've gotten to know some people on other factions a bit, and it is cool being killed by someone you recognize! ![:)]( ":)")
Anyway, let's stick to talks of builds, funny stories (like the time I got jumped by 8 AD as I rode across the bridge and they bashed me to death as I fell out of my chair laughing), map strategy, which in game snacks you prefer, and of course... Ice trebs.

Gradual decrease in performance (fps) while playing
Some weird stuff are going on while playing ESO. Apart from poor servers, my frame rate goes gradually down throughout the game. First I have stable 100fps but after some time I have 50 fps in the same place. No matter the video settings. My PC is definitely strong enough: GTX 1080, I7 6700k, 16 GB ram.
I don't have anything like this in other games. Does anyone have something like this? Does anyone know the solution?

I am the greatest PvP'r to ever play the game.
So check it out, here is my argument:
By and large, pretty much every single match I queue into is against a perfect premade of obvious professionals. We're talking hardcore, roll through everyone and camp both enemy spawns good.
Here's the rub: I can usually take any of these guys in a 1v1 and give as good as I get. The problem though, is the three completely USELESS potatoes I get saddled with on my team.
From people literally saying "afk for exp" or the classic "just here for caltrops/vigor", or actively helping the other team get kills, to the classic CP104 been who goes out to give it an honest shot but is completely outgunned and outclassed.
So I started reading, dug up more information on this "MMR" thing.
What I found is, supposedly, if you are in a group, your "rating" gets increased. Alright, so say on a 0-100 scale, if you are naturally a "skill rating 50", if you go into a big group, it will bump up your skill rating to compensate for you being in a premade.
Cool! Good idea, a group should be rated higher to keep things fair.
But then I started thinking. I always queue solo...I never get my MMR "inflated". And I am going up against people that would already beat me more often than not if they were solo. So I am safely assuming, they probably have a higher MMR than I do, naturally.
Yo, hold up! I have four Chads with individual MMRs already higher than mine (assuming), AND they are getting a rating boost due to being a premade!
Therefore, I can only conclude that my MMR is the highest, most amazing, such elite status on the entire server. Mathematically, my individual MMR says that I alone am glorious enough to face down an entire premade group of elite players. They should all cower before my glory, as (according to MMR) I am able to take any group of mere mortals and ascend them to glory and godhood against impossible odds.
Sounds legit.
Or.
The entire MMR system is complete trash and needs removed, and premades should only face other premades.
I dunno man, since ZOS doesn't make any mistakes, I'm leaning towards me being a God.

When scrolls get dropped
Ever wondered what happens when scroll-carriers drop into water?
Slaughterfish get to the scroll-carriers first.
Scrolls will return to the last keep they were placed in apparently, not to the respective temples automatically alas.![:smiley:]( ":smiley:")
Ahwell, that's how Cyrodiil rolls. We will get our scrolls back darned!
Backstory: Daggerfall Covenant got Volundrung and got both Ebonheart Pact scrolls from Aldmeri Dominion.
Both scrollcarriers met their fate at the base of the Allesia bridge.
PS: swimming is not an option, even if you're Argonian. Tried it once, on another scroll, in another battle, when my nose was less grey.

PvP: what does it take to kill tanks in U23?
Serious question.
SnB + Heavy Armor + Vigor + Ring of Preservation + Tank/Self-Healing Sets
How many players do you need to kill one single tank with that setup that’s trying to defend a point? It’s already hard enough on live but how will it be in U23?
