ZOS. I would love it if you gave us an updated werewolf skin and outfits. I would gladly buy them with crowns.

Zenimax could learn from other MMO's

Yes, ESO is a great game. No I'm not saying WoW, GW2 ect are better. But zenimax could make ESO a lot more fun by learning from other MMO's.



/rant


WoW let's you use all your abilities, and while alot of people disagree I think it would be nice to see PC player at least have bar switching work like GW2, where you switch weapons but keep 10 abilities. With ESO 2 ultimate would stay.

WoW pet classes are something that I see as great. right now sorc and Warden make us keep our abilities slotted which is annoying. Let us switch it out but then nerf it so it's not OP. Try lowering pet damage by %15 first on PTS. Even if it's weak at least we can consistently use it. Then give the %15 damage back on activation of the ability. This would let us keep the pet but make it so if you want the full damage you slot the ability.

Necromancer really needs at least 1 cool undead ability. No the temp ones don't count. I like how WoW handled their "necromancer' which is death knight. The ability basically works like this

Control a below lvl (insert lvl) undead for up to 5 minutes.

Obviously I think Zenimax has a different philosophy on long abilities so lower it to 1-2 minutes. If we can't have something like that let us have a permanent melee skeleton or let us keep the ranged skelly and have it work like Wardens.

But zenimax wants ALL classes to be unique. Making another pet class won't work.

I ranted before that a lot of classes share abilities, Dragon Knight and warden have armor. Neco has vampire ult as it's tank. Ect. Allowing necro's to control undead or have a permanent pet will keep it in theme with a necromancer.



Guild wars 2 has a neat feature where if your harvesting materials it keeps the animation going and lets you collect materials for a bit. It's a small thing but it feels like your actually gathering resources rather than click E on a rock then collecting it like it's some sort of chest you open.

GW2 also has better World events IMO. Some are pretty boring like defending a NPC while they walk, but some are REALLY *** COOl. For example there is a area that's similar to valenwood but has tree people. (think dryads with legs and leaf's for hair) They have a zombie problem where the zombies come in waves and it's a world event where you have to protect them. This can EASILY fit for a future expansion as ZOS is no stranger to World events.

GW2 and WoW also have unqiue looking mounts but I think it's more of a ZOS problem since they make alot of money from the crownstore and crowncrates.

WoW has mage create portals to major cities. While we have wayshrines it doesn't feel like im creating a portal as it feels like a annoyance when I'm a sorcerer and part of the mages guild. You could go to eyevea and they basially have 5 portals. NPC's constantly create portals and teleport the player. There is literally no reason sorcerer shouldn't have a passive or extra ability to create portals to capital cities.

How it would work: The ability would either work like a normal ability which u can slot, but ZOS could add a extra space for it, they have done this with potions and collectibles so it's not "impossible due to technical limitations". Or they could make it a tool like the cool like how it works with the cake that gives exp or the tool that you get in Greymoor. This would make sorcerer a very unique class and allow dungeon and raid parties to save gold. Around 500 for dungeon groups and 1,200 on Trail groups. It would also let RPers feel like they actually are a mage.
It also would make sense lore wise since Sorcerers summon daedra. So creating a portal should be easy. This shows that sorcerers are more well versed in conjuration than other classes which would make sense to allow only sorcerer to create portals.


GW2 has a great mechanic which basically let's you create a backstory for your character. Though I guess we will kind of have that with the blackwood where we can pick our starting zone according to chapters. though I still feel like GW2 has alot more choices for your character.

WoW having the story boss linked with a trial or dungeon.
While I get that ZOS wants to maintain the philosophy or keeping the quests of the Elder Scrolls Online single-player. I believe it's time to AT LEAST party move away from that. I think that 'final bosses" should have a dungeon or trial where you beat them. Like how in Craglorn there are trials for The Warrior, The mage and the Serpent. At the very least add a trial or dungeon where we beat someone related to the final boss. I believe we kinda had that for Elswheyr but I havn't done it and I doubt the dragons you fight there have any relation to the main boss.

For PvP their could be new arenas for each zone. 2 PvP arena's per year. 1 for Morrowind, 1 for Summerset, 1 for Elswheyr, 1 for southern Elswheyr, 1 for Greymor, 1 for markarth, 1 for Blackwood, 1 for the zone after it. The arena's wouldn't be huge so while it would take time at least PvP players get new content. If the dev team does not want to spend so much time on creating so many different arena's they could at least start with blackwood. I don't PvP but it sucks seeing so many PvP players wanting content and having only Cyrodil and 1 Arena.

A lot of people will say these ideas are horrible. But after playing so many different games and playing ESO for 1,000 hours. I don't suggest these ideas because I want to change how ESO works completely, I think these ideas would allow the player to be more immersed in the world, make classes feel unique for the player, and would improve the game.

Toons in PTS

I have 14 Toons on the NA Server.
When I come into the PTS, sometimes I get my NA Toons and I can explore. Other times I have to use a Brand New Toon who can't DO anything because it's just like starting a New Toon in the NA Server.
How can I get it to let me in PTS with my NA Toons? I know anything they do there has no bearing on the normal play, but at least I have Wayshrines marked and can look at new craft tables, which a new toon is useless at.

People T bagging after being told to stop no real consequences for them after reported.

So I have a group of players that change factions in the Black reach camp that are toxic abusive in the chats. They also like to t bag after being told to stop or even reported. When reported one just changes their name to either the @adress or the toons name. They been told to stop like as in sent mail to them saying stop and I as a female consider targeted t bagging me as a female sexual harassment. Its always done when I'm way out numbered and killed but they people do not seem to care. they get a notice from ZOS like i said all they do is change their name and continue the targeted abuse. The one person was so abusive to me previous In the AD he had to be reported and blocked they unblocked to send mail for them to stop t bagging me and blocked again cause they are abusive. I report these guys and nothing is really done send in screen shots showing the t bagging animated. they maybe get a notification from ZOS. No real consequences for being abusive.

Easter Egg Furnishings. Its time!

One thing myself and many others have always wanted in ESO has been Easter Egg furnishings. I've hosted many easter egg hunt events over the years, but we've always been limited to using odd furnishings like apples. Could we get some pastel colored easter egg furnishings added into the game in the future? The egg models are already in the game itself, the pet "Mara's Spring Chicken" actually has 3 eggs that it lays out (pastel colors)

Bank & Guild Bank Delay

There is a 5 second delay on trying to remove items from my bank.
Trying to access my Guild Bank results in a 30 second freeze.
Everytime I try to remove something from both banks the screen freezes.
Putting items in there is no delay.
What is going on, how do i fix this because it is incredibly frustrating and across 9 toons is taking up a lot of game time.
Is there a fix please?

Bound Furniture Issue

$
0
0
I have searched the forums and seen that this is something that has been discussed several times to some extent but I wanted to provide a possible concept to consider.

When coming back to the game I was excited to be able to utilize the housing system as well as the furnishings that go along with it, this makes the game feel very much like a TES game. I became frustrated once I realized there was no way for my wife and I to both use our bound items in the same house. This is a pretty significant oversight IMO.

My initial, knee jerk, thought was that you should be able to designate individuals from your friend list to allow them to drop furnishings in your house, or some variation of this, allowing players such as my wife and I to enjoy a house together with ALL of our furnishings. I read another post suggesting just that and saw a response along the lines of "The company should not have to deal with fallout from failed relationships" and I agree with that. That still leaves us with the issue of being able to share all (decoration) items in game if you want to. Many are available through crafting and purchasing from vendors but there are several very unique and exciting options that are strictly bound.

The main culprit, possibly only real culprit, is Scrying. I am aware this is new but I don't see the reason for every single furnishing item being bound on pickup, this feels like a method to force people to try it out. Scrying is interesting for a little while but then turns into something that feels more tedious, not to mention it is something that one part of the population would rather not do, PvPers mainly. There are plenty of items that are only attainable by going into PvP zones that allow PvPers to make some money through selling them to people that rfuse to step foot in those zones, some style pages that can go for 1mil come to mind. What is the reasoning behind making all furnishings attained through Scrying bound on pickup?

I personally believe that there should either be an option to allow gifting of bound furnishings to specified people on a friends list or to remove the bind on pickup from most, if not all, furnishins acquired through Scrying. If there were just a few unique ones that were bound I might understand but all furnishings acquired through Scrying are bind on pickup.

Ball Groups: A National Concern

$
0
0
The other thread was closed because of mean people. Let's have a constructive thread.

Ball groups aren't going anywhere. Change whatever you want, the players will adapt.

The issue for me is that they tend to exploit inherent weakness in the combat system while also overloading the server with aoe spasm that further make it hard to kill them.

Strategically, they can avoid most attacks by going into towers which also prevents the most effective counter attacks.

Most siege is useless at best because either you can't directly hit them or they simply shrug off the damage.

We need a better counter. For example what if there was a new siege weapon that exploded on impact, dealing increased damage for each additional player hit?

What if resource towers were destructible?

If groups want to ball up, I'm all for it. But there needs to be a better counter than sending 30 people to kill 12. I think ball groups might actually enjoy a better challenge but hey, easy ap is hard to turn down.

Any other (non trollish) ideas?

is it that difficult to get explanations from the combat balance team?

$

you changed buffs and sets with balance in mind, with the pretext of lowering the distance between the floor and the ceiling.
However you left many things unchanged, like they are supposed to be like this. Not even an explanation of why or a note saying that these will be adjusted in a future patch.
What are the reasons of this? who can i talk with about this? @ZOS_GinaBruno ? it's not like i am entitled to any answers, but the community as a whole (at least everyone i play with) does not understand the changes, or why other things are left untouched, or why nobody from the team is explaining about those decisions.
This just results in a frustrating experience, and it gets down to more work into building the character rather than actual fun gameplay. These things are just another brick in the wall between players and the game.

that was all i had to say, below i will just post some examples regarding to what i am talking about.
- the Malacath Band was made with 25% bonus, comparable to Major Berserk at that time. Now Major Berserk is nerfed to 10% from 25%, yet Band remains the same. Where is the SBE (Set Bonus Efficiency) at this item? it should have been brought down to 10%.
- Slimecraw no compensation but i suppose it aligns with SBE ?
- For instance Vampire Cloak has been adjusted for the loss, so i suppose Slimecraw SBE should have been modified too?
- Major Protection from 30% to 10%, but Buffer of the Swift still grants 10% all the time, unchanged.
- proc sets had 1.5k-2k dps standard with proc chances like 15-20%, so maybe a 500 dps. Now there is no proc chance, so they do indeed 1.5k-2k dps but this is too strong now?

there are many more examples, but these are just to represent the idea. Do the balance team actually play the game on a competitive level like high MMR battlegrounds or vet dlc trials? Also trial builds are mostly copy-paste and if you dare use something else you lose up to 5k dps.

EDIT: i wanted to add some insight about the nerf to buffs. Again two tons hammer nerf, instead of adjustments. From 15% to 5%, minor buffs like maim or protection are not even worth to use now, just wasted slots on the bar. Same goes for The Major buffs, 10% from 30% is too much to be worth using the sources of these buffs.
Why not first a patch with 10% minor, 20% major, and then decide if they are needed to nerf further to 5 and 10 % ?

Im kind of fed up with the current magicka DD meta (barbed ,mystic orb, siroria, mother's sorrow etc.). My question is, do you know any off-meta build (for DD) that actually preforms well, lets say 80k+ DPS?

Community Cobble Showcase #9: Seating!

$

Hey ESO Housing Community! I don't know about yall, but for me, 2020 has been the year I turn into a complete couch potato. In honor of how much time we have spent... sitting inside, it's time for:

Community Cobble Showcase #9!

The theme of this showcase is "Seating." Show me your coziest, fanciest, shabbiest, starkest, whatever it is you like to sit on! (besides toilets - they already have their own thread = P)

Also, and this is just a personal request, but if you managed to make your seating cobble **actually** sit-able, please show that feature off! Cobbling a functional seat is a serious achievement in Tamriel <3

I'll be hitting other themes in future showcase threads, but if you have any suggestions that you would like to see sooner rather than later, please feel free to PM me.

As always, I want to send a BIG thank you to everyone who has shared their cobbles in any of the community cobble threads. As I said in the first showcase post, ESO's housing community is amazing, creative, and so incredibly supportive of each other, and I hope that these threads will serve as a centralized, easily searchable method of showcasing and iterating on various cobbled designs. I also want to give a big shout-out and thanks to @StabbityDoom who takes the best notes in all of Tamriel and has really enabled the sharing of cobbles created by builders who are not typically active on the forums. <3

I can't wait to see what you guys have created!




Original Post, House-Keeping Stuffs:
(1) If you want to post a picture of someone else's cobbled design, please credit the builder in your post.
(2) No cobble is too "simple" or too "obvious" to be included. Sometimes the most brilliant, unique, and creative ideas come in the simplest package!
(3) Please continue to be the kind, creative, and supportive community you already are!

Step-by-step instructions regarding an easy way to post pictures (note there are tons of other methods if you prefer another way of doing it)
(1) Take a screenshot in game.
(2) Make a copy of the screenshot. If you used your computers basic "print screen" function to take the screenshot, you have already copied the screenshot and can proceed to step 3. If you used an in-game command to take the screenshot, use your file explorer to navigate to the following location to open and copy the picture: This PC -> Documents -> Elder Scrolls Online -> Live -> Screenshots.
(3) Post the screenshot into any Discord Channel by using the command "control+v" in the channel's message box. I typically use a personal Discord channel, which is free to create, but if you would prefer a housing-friendly discord to post into, feel free to send me a PM and I will shoot you an invite to my housing guild's discord channel (its open to anyone).
(4) In Discord, click on the picture you just posted; an expanded view of the image will open.
(5) Click "Open Original", which appears underneath and to the left of the expanded image you opened in step 4. This will open the image in your default internet browser.
(6) Select the entire URL of the webpage that opened in step 5. Copy the URL.
(7) In the ESO forum thread, "leave a reply" box, click the drop down arrow to the right of the tool that looks like a mountain and a sun in a portrait frame, labelled "attach image". Click on the "image URL" text box that opens, and paste the URL you copied in step 6.
