Direct access to IC

Have to ride all the way in both of my campaigns, today. ZOS, when will you get it through your thick skulls that some of us have no interest in Cyro, and you are just p*ss*ng off your player base. Please give us direct access to IC! I am raising this as a bug, because it might as well be. There are a variety of reasons:

(1) Characters no longer remain in Cyro / IC, when you log out and log back in again, even if campaigns are not full. This is an acknowledged bug, still not fixed.

(2) With your server infrastructure as it is, many people report performance issues, at peak times, in Cyro, thus some of us seek refuge in IC. Fengrush isn't ranting for no reason. I can only agree.

(3) Some of us have no interest in large scale, full stop.

(4) Some of us don't like to ride, if/when we die. This is one of the things stopping me from playing in places like Bruma, aside from a lack of action. IC can be deserted too, but then there's lucrative boss farming to do.

(5) Some of us have PCs, or Internet access from different countries, that can't cope with large battles in Cyrodiil.

As an aside, in case you're thinking, "Well, maybe Battlegrounds is for this guy?", it is not. Any success I've had, there, has come in pre-composed groups with voice chat. I rarely play that way. It's just not me. I am primarily a solo player and I like playing in PUGs, in IC, with whoever happens to be around. I feel PUGs aren't really viable or enjoyable for BG. I am also strictly a CP player.

2 Questions: 1. does light staf hA goes through block; 2. How is argonian race for stamblade

hello everyone and a frontloaded thanks for clarifieing my questions :)

1. i heard from a friend i should slot a lightning staff on my sorc to fight vs permablocking mag dks or templars. so why? does it go through block?? didnt know that 4 real

2. im playing a tanky stamblade in heavy armour and 2h/bow spec. well im usually play her like a normal medium nightblade just enjoy the overall tankines of ha and the heal %+ When it comes to the race, she is current argonier because it gives further health, the potion passive is also nice for magica (cloak fear) and it gets also a healing buff. Now everyone says BIS race for stamblade is bosmer and i can see why: 21% stam reg paired with a small stam increase buff and a slightely dmg buff out from stealt looks really apealing

should i change to bosmer?

TIME TO RETHINK CHAMPION POINTS

As a day 1 player, I think PvP has never been worse than right now.
A couple points.
1) People Should Die
2) People Should Have to Work to Maintain Resources
3) Most Damage Should Come From Your Base Attacks (Ult's should be a bonus, not your only way to get a kill)
4) When you have a combat game and 1 v 1's are taking 20 minutes, and players can tank an entire zerg... you have gone too far in that direction.

Use the population of the game to determine what directions it needs to go, not the most whining. Most of the people in here complaining are already playing the Meta, and are just whining because their Meta isn't Meta enough. I actually think this is a major problem with games, about 75% of your PvP population is a sheild stacking Sorc, and the forums are full of complaining sheild stacking Sorcs... where are your Magic Templars? your Stam Templars, your Magic Nightblades? get it...... those are the classes that need something, the ones no one is playing.

That said, I think the No CP mechanic is pretty good. I get it, that most people won't play it, but that is the nature of an MMO more than anything else. MMO populations want to feel like they are achieving something, like they are building something, people plays these characters for months, the customization that comes from even a small amount of change is the attraction-

I hear people say, "I don't play CP because I don't have sustain" --- yeah, you need to kill someone, not fight them for 20 minutes with no chance of you ever dying..... People will argue with me, but the game population speaks for itself. It is low right now, and it's because CP isn't fun. You have to zerg to kill most of the time, and then so much of the population is some sort of 3 shield stacking, 2 skill spamming, destro Ult bomb combo.
I remember when people used to complain about Wrecking Blow Spam, sure.. but you had to hit them 3 or 4x, and they could block, dodge roll etc.. it was actual combat- and the game population reflected it. It was more fun.

FYI- I have 775 CP, I consider myself a decent player. This isn't a whine post, this is me looking at a game I have invested in, watching the population dwindle, and trying to help keep it alive.
and PVE, you don't have to change it at all ( I don't care) -- they never had to be the same, when you go into Cyrodil is what I am concerned about it.

Load Screen Issue

Recently I've encountered a weird load screen issue about 3 times now. Seems to happen randomly.

Issue is upon entering a delve, outlaw refuge or the like, the load screen does not go away after completing loading. I am stuck on the loading screen but instead of it "still loading", I can hear sound and ambience (even the pet is making noises). I have to kill the ESO process and restart the game altogether.

Eye of the Storm

From the new patch notes:

Elemental Storm: Reduced the damage of this ability and the Eye of the Storm morph by approximately 12%.

This is quite a big nerf to this ability. The thing is a lot of organized groups (12-16 players) use it to tackle big mindless zergs. At least sotha sil on eu/pc has been overwhelmed with huge zergs lately. To nerf that one ability that counters them is to make these zergs even more powerfull and dominant. Not that I'm gonna give up on trying but please zos reconsider this.

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.

Are you Happy to See a DPS Posing as a Tank in Dungeon Finder?

October 5, 2017, 11:49 am

I confess I'm not neutral on this, but I want to know the general consensus here. I think it's cheating for a DPS to queue as a tank in the vet dungeon finder. Sure, there are some who say "We don't need a tank for this dungeon". But my main issue is that these people are faking a tank in order to beat the queue. The other DPS guys queued honestly, and waited their turn (however long it was). The fake tank thought "I can cheat the system by queuing as a tank".

So question. Would you rather have a true tank in the Veteran dungeon finder who does the following:

1. Taunts
2. Holds boss still
3. Chains adds
4. Provides shields
5. Debuffs boss
6. Give extra health (optional) via Ebon

But does NO dps whatsoever?

Or would you rather have a random DPS queuing as a tank in the dungeon finder as Vet?

Why do people want EotS nerfed?

Now, I know what you're thinking. This is a troll post. Honestly, it's not.

1v1 this ultimate is hardly BiS, in fact, I'd argue that no duelist will opt to use it and only a small amount of solo players will use it. Small scale differs slightly as this is intended to be a zerg buster. So assuming that the discontent for this ability stems from its extensive zerg use, how does nerfing EotS nerf these large ball groups?

Arguably, this is in fact a buff to these large co-ordinated groups. 12% damage lost means that stacking on crown is even more affective than before, opening up the possibility for these groups to drop a healer and bring in another bomber. Time for some napkin math:

Lets assume the average group runs 5 bombers.
That's 60% dps loss if all 5 bomb at once, 48% for a 4 man bomb->36%->24%->12%

Now lets factor in the extra bomber due to less need for a healer.
Again, (napkin math) we can equate this to 88% more damage to bombs.
So a what was previously a 5 man bomb now does 28% more damage, 4' man does 40% more damage->52%->64%->72%

The best way to kill a zerg is to bomb it, and now this method is less effective. This is just my thought process, and I'm curious as to what the rest of you think.

*Disclaimer*-The above math is simply to illustrate the concept. The numbers will be significantly higher than reality but the fundamental concept still holds true.

TL;DR
ELI5 as to how nerfing destro ultimates is a good thing

Just why zos this will ruin gank builds and weaken stamina nightblades clever alchemist is one of the few sets left that a stamina nightblade can use to gank with still the reason you stated in the patch notes you stated it's cause you didn't want people to be able to change gear sets this is BS the real reason you are nerfing it is to nerf the stamina nightblades yet sorcerers frags change is not going to happen now why do you continue to nerf stamina players yet not nerf Magicka players @ZOS_Wrobel

ZOS should make crown-purchased motifs account-wide

I am sure the motif sales in crown store is not bad, however, I am 99% sure that no one ever buy same motif with crowns on two characters.

So why don't you make crown-purchased motifs account-wide, making them more compelling than collecting all those pages in a single character without spending crown?

This also provides greater chance for ppl to get master writ in alts, if what I remember is correct

I know most of us are very happy when another player visits the homes we put so much work into, so I don't see why a guest book couldn't be implemented to let us know who's visited while we were away.

Here's one example: A very generous player has used his home to place ALL the set crafting stations needed to complete writs. I would love a way to leave a note showing my appreciation when I visit.

What do you say, ZOS? Any hope of this happening? :)

Sorcs talking.

Magic. That's how they do it.

Here's an awesome for you cause u r funny.

Now.. after reading all posts until this quote, ima go all "nerf sorc" on you.

You do realize that this game has given you a spell that almost completely absorbs a standard attack, helps you recover/ maintain, and gets buffed from CP
The game has given you access to a weapon that draws from your magika and SD and helps you heal
This game is designed to give you boosted damage from max magika POOL- which also reinforces your spammable shields size that almost completely absorbs a standard incoming atk, releaving you from the need to invest in SPELL DAMAGE- while also becoming so large that you can almost endlesly cast abilities (buffs[and boy you have access to some SOLID buffs with magika costs] cc, dmg, timed curse, executioning curse, escape, ward, shield damagingCCingGroundAoEProtection-mines, in other words you have every tool available to you at Magika Cost, to engage, disengage, create distance and or close in a fight at will). You can also use a dodge and a breakFree, to help maintain your wards/shields, and while Zos rightfully did punish perma dodgers ....whose only defence was dodging, you benefit from those defences just enough without risking a penalty, but enough to help you tank 5 attackers and beat them.
This games bad combat design allows you to deal great additional damage EASILY by weaving normal RANGED attacks even though you are on defence mode.

In a fight you can heal effectively with tools available to you.
You can absord damaga. Tank enemies.
You can escape.
You can close in.
You can burst down.
You can defend your position. Ground aoe.
And you can perform all these actions more than good enough.

Why do you oppose nerfs to your class that help bring balance?
Why do you oppose changes to the games systems that help bring balance?

I respectfully read the guys that answered to their fellow sorc seeking advice.
I'd regret to return and read troll comments


PS.
Zos cannot improve the systems, nor will reverse the whole CP circus.
ZOS, maybe shouldn't nerf sorcs.
ZOS should stop buffing them.
ZOS should FIX the other classes' broken skills
