Why is Caltrops Locked Behind a PVP Wall?

$
0
0
Caltrops is one of the better stamina aoe abilities but in order to get it I have to grind pvp. I have absolutely no interest in pvp. I just finished running around in Cyrodil with a group trying to do stuff and it was honestly the worst experience I've had to-date in ESO. If I wanted to pvp I'd be playing Call of Duty or one of those MOBAs. Up to now I've been really enjoying ESO. I'm cp320 and have a few level 50 characters and master crafters. Now I'm working on my dps DK and it seems I'm going to be forced to pvp if I want this powerful pve ability.

I'm sure someone will point out the fact that one of the morphs is for use against mounted characters, but it's still largely a pve ability. There really needs to be some other way to obtain Caltrops (or AP) for those of us who have no desire to pvp.

It's really bad design whenever a developer locks pve abilities behind pvp. I'm guessing it's been this way for a while so I doubt they'll change it anytime soon, but it's really dumb design.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Isn't it about time somebody takes a look at this?! Every day.. multiple times a day... people have to face infinite loading screens / crashes in Cyrodiil (EU/TF). Has ZOS given up on the PvP player base or what?

List of dungeon etiquette

I just posted this but I thought I'd make a thread:

My personal list of dungeon etiquette.
  • Say Hi
  • Ask if anyone needs quest
  • Wait for people that are doing a quest
  • Yell "At'avar, WHERE ARE YOU!!" or otherwise joke around to get people talking. Surprisingly, I often end up being the only one talking, but I keep talking until the very end :)
  • Stop and ask if people understand the mechanics of tougher bosses, and provide instructions if necessary
  • Que for the role I am competent in
  • Vote to kick fake tanks or those otherwise being an [snip]

Please help me download and install the game. Infinite loading screen

When I try to download the game, I get the loading stuck problem. I've looked through a LOT of old threads concerning this problem. Not all of them, I'm sure. But a LOT of them.

So far some of the highlights of my attempted fixes have been:

Buying a new $185 GPU (and the $18 hdmi cable needed to attach it to my monitor)
Wiping my C drive 3 times with a fresh install
Spending days and days cherry picking windows updates

I think this is a lot of work. I even just ordered a new version of windows along with a new hard drive, which is set to be delivered Friday Nov 4th

All just to keep playing this game, which I've been a plus subscriber to for over a year. I'd just like a little help and guidance.

Anyone else having game crashing issues?

After the Clockwork City update, I keep getting these random crashes. I swear they never happened to me before but now they are common enough to affect gameplay and enjoyment playing ESO.

Mainly curious that how many is having the same issue.

Please change what procs Tava's Favor!

$

I don't normally come on the official forums much other than to read patch notes and check if the server is down, but the changes made to evasion--while I know was intended to attempt balancing something not related to the ulti-gen tank build---comes at the death of the Tava's Favor set which is a beloved option for DragonKnight ulti-generation Tank builds.

If there's any way we can change what procs tava to save it as an option for tanks, it would be appreciated by at least this tank.

For my bit of soap box time....I don't care what it gets changed to, but to change what procs tava...maybe like when you block a heavy amount of damage? take a lot of direct physical damage? Or I....I dunno, anything, change it to anything tank-specific. Anything at all, just please don't kill Tava's forever. And while I know some players might want to say "use bloodspawn" that's not a replacement for tava's, IMO neither is dragonguard. For the record, my build uses all three of those sets as a hybrid build, Dragonguard, Tava's Favor, and Bloodspawn. It's well balanced and has pros and cons to usage. It's high resource spend, but high resource gain and takes training on the player's part to master the resource management while also not moving the bosses and mobs around like crazy. It allows me to use chains and talons for grouping at will on top of the resource spending for buffing and taunting, but I have to mind the timing between ultimate drops, potions, and use of heavy attacks to keep up with the high resource spending. Because I can drop a lot of DK standards I can spend my standard during mob fights and my team can coordinate with me--they wait for me to chain pull in mobs, then use the synergy to lock them down, that saves me the cost of using talons for that fight so I can spend more on chains. The build has cons in that I use champion points to make up for not getting to resistance caps, the build doesn't really do much damage, doesn't provide shields for the group beyond what igneous shield gives, it won't hold up in PVP and it's not cut for veteran trial tanking (holds up well in normal trials where most builds hold up okay). What it does do is maximize the damage my DPSers can do. With morrowind's release the build had to be moved over to a hybrid build from stamina (which IMO made it even stronger though caltrops had to be given up.) I can't describe how much fun I've had doing vet HM ruins of mazz on this build and being able to group things together as they spawn. Tanking vHM Selene is on a whole new level when I can chain pull in ALL of the spawns and my team locks them down in my standard, and keep Selene taunted and as still as possible AND dodge roll her heavy attacks. It makes a LOT of work for me but it's so much fun. The death of Tava's wipes out a major source of the ulti-gen needed to breathe life into the build. It has it's limitations but I find it to be well balanced because of those procs and cons. Again it's incredible fun as a tank and makes things fun for my DPSers. With Tava's out, even while still using Dragonguard and Bloodspawn how much I spend my resources to do the things that I do, it won't keep up and there's no other sources of major evasion to adapt the build to for Dragonknights. : (

Please save Tava's favor for tanks. Whatever the proc is changed to I'm sure tanks could adapt to some how. Please don't leave this set dead.

To other players reading this, I'm not saying I couldn't use another build and go on with my life. More that I'm trying to say Tava's Favor doesn't have to die like this. If there's anyway ZoS could adjust what procs Tava's to save it as Tank build option....I'm here to say I'd really, really appreciate it.

yes, a very naive melody :)

initially I had tried to kick off the conversation with questions on a bunch of random topics...

love to fight, carry scrolls, gank, defend, attack, pour oil on folks, repair keep walls til your fingers bleed - this is your thread...

love hearing big and little battle stories, as well as observations concerning the interaction between the alliances in this campaign - who doesn't love a good bridge fight...

big IC fan...at this point i wanna apologize right now for anything weird or crazy i may have done in IC (or for any future stuff)...I'm pretty laid back in cyro - IC has a way of getting me fired up on occasion...

hmmmmm, is it really true cyro reveals whom you want to be, and, IC reveals who you truly are...

if you want - say what's up, and if you like - let us all know what's up...

anyhow - enjoy, and, happy gaming trails...

bonus question: if any one knows where the reference "loose tales" (spelt differently) comes from - you'll win...ummmm, my undying admiration?

Do you ever get food cravings triggered by things you see in game?

With me it's pizza -

The oven is not too bad, but whenever I see one of those mushrooms my brain just goes all peperoni pizza on me. It's pretty tough to fight that craving off.

I'm glad there's really no chocolate in the game.

Sharing some street selling rules with U noob sellers! Rule 1 : Never COD!

$
0
0
I have 3 trading guild in main towns, but I still like street selling CUZ higher profit and more fun.
Let me share some street selling rules with U noob sellers.

1, Never COD, always meet trade.
If PPL really want to buy your items, they won't mind taking 1 or 2 mins run to U. Some ppl say "Com'on, I am in dungeon/Cyrodiil, COD me." Don't trust, must be Nigerian prince.

2, GOLD only
Don't trade, unless you really want PPL's item. Many poor/cunning guys like using cheap stuff to trade your rare items.

e.g. 10 hollowjack motifs to trade your hollowjack mask, 1 wrothgar golden recipe to trade your mazzatun motif, 1 golden imperial motif book to trade your Buoyant motif, 6 wax + 1 temp + 10K to trade your 2 mazzatun motifs.

If U R not familiar with market price, always go GOLD only.

3, No bundle sale, no whole sale!
Always sell your item one by one, never go bundle sale.

4, If ppl ask u "HM", always reply "offer?"
Don't give them your price, let them offer. Those ppl are NOT real buyers, they just want to analyze the market price, or just harass U.

5, No mercy to noobs/kids
You must hear this "Com'on, I am new in the game. I only have 5k. Plz..." No mercy! Trust me, if you believe, then U R the new in the game. :D

Refund for Erroneous Crown Store Purchase of the Clockwork City Collector's Edition

$

After a player purchases the Clockwork City DLC, the Crown Store should not offer the Clockwork City Collector's Edition. Also, perchance the player buys the Clockwork City Collector's Edition, then the Crown Store should not continue to offer the Clockwork City DLC.

There is nothing gained that is worth the cost to buy both. For whatever reason, I overlooked that I had already purchased the Clockwork City DLC, and bought the Clockwork City Collector's Edition because it was the only one that was available. At the time, I assumed that the initial release of the Clockwork City DLC was no longer available, because I did not recognize its darkened panel among all of the other DLCs which I have bought previously with Crowns.

Afterward, I realized what had happened, namely, an expenditure of 4000 Crowns for 5 Crown Experience Scrolls which I don't need, a Mount that I will never use, and a Pet that I will not include in playing the game (nor will I display either the mount or the pet at a homestead).

So I want a refund at least of the Crowns that I spent first for the Clockwork City DLC. ZOS can have the other items back if they will refund the 4000 Crowns for the Collector's Edition instead. However, I cannot find a way to contact anyone at ZOS about this matter.

The Log-in for the Support feature of the ZOS website fails, without any explanation, although I correctly enter the user ID and password for the "Account" and for logging-in to play the game. As far as I know, the user ID and password to log-in to "Support" are the same as for the "Account". (The user ID and password are different for the ESO Forum, however.) In fact, when I use the "Sign Up" feature on the page displayed by https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/app/utils/login the result is a display of the log-in dialog for the "Account".

Evidently the ZOS website Support feature recognizes that I already have an "Account" at least while I am, in fact, logged-in to play the game. But there is no access to anyone who can do anything about the Account and/or transactions at the Crown Store. This situation is no way for anyone who is serious about providing ESO as a service to run their business, because it will eventually ruin their business.


Crown Store Item Wish List

Hello everyone!

As part of Update 6, we are introducing the Crown Store: an in-game store where you can purchase customization and convenience items. The store offers consumables you can use to save time on in-game activities (like experience and crafting boosters, for example) along with new customization options including costumes, exotic pets, and mounts. When the Crown Store launches, we’ll have a number of items available immediately, but what about the future? Tell us what sorts of goods and services you would like to see offered in the Crown Store – you can be as general or specific as you’d like.

You can view some of the planned Crown Store items at the following link, beginning at 23:59

We look forward to reading your ideas and feedback!

http://theconversation.com/the-business-of-addiction-how-the-video-gaming-industry-is-evolving-to-be-like-the-casino-industry-83361

Quote from article:

"The use of casino techniques by games companies
Video game companies today use the same techniques as casinos to ensure customers become addicted to their games.
Commonly, they use fake currency. By using poker chips, cards or “gems,” companies can create a disassociation effect in the buyer, who does not realise how much real money they are spending. In a recent study, it was shown that people tend to spend more money when using debit cards than with cash due to this same “disassociation” effect."

Enlightenment Bonus Bug

$
0
0
Apparently because my character was made before the enlightenment system (back in 2014) was put into place, when I hit 50 my character was not properly flagged for the enlightenment bonus. I only received the daily enlightenment bonus of 400,000 instead of the maximum enlightenment that everyone receives upon hitting level 50 on a new character. One of my other friends who also made their account back in 2014 did not receive this enlightenment bonus. But all of my other friends who made their characters this year received the 4.8 million enlightenment boost as soon as they hit level 50.

I have never reached level 50 until about a couple weeks ago (even though my account was made back in 2014). I believe because my character was made before the enlightenment system was put in, he was not properly "flagged" to receive the 4.8 million enlightenment bonus upon reaching level 50.

I have tried to explain this to customer support but I do not believe they are fully understanding what I am talking about. Hopefully an in-game admin can help me with this situation because it's pretty crappy when all of my buddies received basically 5,000,000 enlightenment points and I only received 400,000.

Thank you.

I want to be able to craft cookies. why you might ask? well 1st off we will have cookies in game 2nd we would be able to send them to people who helped us with minor stuff like answering question helpfully the questions asked by people in zone chat, you just mail them a cookie for a small ty, they wouldn't do much maybe gain a short very small xp buff, or maybe grant like 5% rested xp towards your next CP.

you yourself, the crafter would not be able to eat them, they would have to be crafted and sent to you by someone else.
