The pts changes are locked in and not only did it not get stronger, some things have actually been nerfed. Its not going to be the default top dps anymore. As of right now with u50 its actually being seen as more of a support option than anything. I'd hardly call that overpowered.

and why the fuck did they make shields scale off max health. who is running this ship these days because they are even fucking dumber than before

you get major protection and major berserk when using your ulti. that's absolutely nuts. it has that passive that buffs landslide by 100% damage plus gives you healing increase which is just short of major vitality that stacks with major vitality. it's fucking obscene you won't even need to build damage sets or sustain on dk

and if magsorc even gets a fraction of the buffs dk has gotten the bitch tears will never end. WHY THE FUCK DID THEY NERF MY MAGE'S WRATH YOU FUCKING NIGGERS. HOW IS IT ANY DIFFERENT THAN TEMPLAR BEAM AND NIGHTBLADE EXECUTE? FUCK YOU, YOU RUINED MY CLASS

you're not a magsorc player. it was useful because the entirety of magsorc was to set up combos. you drop haunting curse, whittle them down, geta frags proc, throw on wrath, streak in, curse goes off on second tick, hit with frags and another cast of your spammable, wrath finishes the job

but honestly i think i'm done with this game. subtrashing ruined the game, but what's worse is the light attack nerf. you don't even need to weave anymore to dps and one bar heavy attack builds are viable because 90% of eso's players are disabled subhumans. the game simply isn't fun anymore, all the skill, all the stuff that made it interesting is gone. what a joke

i remember this webbum from many years ago on /vg/. this game has gotten so bad, the dumbest diversity hire morons are now working on it. it's impressive how stupid these people are. i just recently came back a month ago and am just about to stop again, probably for good. the game is such a mess you wouldn't believe the details if i told you

I made it when this general was very active on /vg/ and I bought the Amaya Lake Lodge and was showing off my Guar collection to everyone. It was fun then, the hype for future content was fun and the game still felt fresh. Last I checked it's just on the most pathetic form of life support now

capped the damage on light attacks so you no longer need to weave to do good dps yet somehow dps has inflated to an insane 170k at the high end. you have this beam attack on the new arcanist class that does 250k damage per cast and it's a beam, no weaving, you just sit there and drool over your keyboard. then they added the ability to combine skill lines from other classes at the expense of one of your skill lines and this has completely ruined pve and pvp. it's not hyperbole when i say that every class plays the exact same in optimal pve now and it's even worse in pvp. in pve every "class" is this aesthetically disgusting build of beam spam, laying down traps and using a two handed sword for the charge ability. it's so gross.

they added a fucking card game no one cares about, they added a roguelite game mode no one cares about with the most obscene grind in the game, we're talking literally over 100 hours of grind here. then they got rid of daily logins and instead added a battlepass. they reworked dragon knight as the first in a plan to rework all classes to fix a problem they created with sub classing being overpowered and now dks are ruining pvp. this is the old tanky dps meta x100, no exaggeration here. you would have to look up how insane dk's abilities and skills are yourself, it's too much to go over here

The difficulty curve in this game is absurd. Any normal monster group poses no challenge when you're even decently well geared. But when you try to fight a world boss you get oneshot by convoluted mechanics, thus recquiring you to use completely different and expensive builds instead.

No, I won't group up. I can't stand the subhuman playerbase.
>>
>>2524285
World bosses are just basic gear checks, if you have a mildly good build you'll be able to solo them, also, most "oneshots" are blockable or dodgeable so at that point it's a skill issue.
If you don't wanna group up in a fucking MMO then that's a you problem.
t. autist.
>>
>>2513758
>>2522585
whatever this dumbass complains about is what makes the game even tolerable. go boast about your dps to your homosexuals guild mates. solo play is all that matters to me.

>>2524340
no, don't want to group up just because the developers decided that a you're not allowed to clear content without a party. besides, i was talking about the difficulty curve, not whining about bosses being too hard. i just did the queen's consort in morrowind and upon fighting wuyuvus i couldn't do anything. this had nothing to do with my skill as a player or coming in ill-prepared. being faced with an impossible task (bashing the enemy while you're stunned and and losing hp) during an ordinary fight is poor game design. it wasn't like the screen flashed before fighting it or like in other mmos where it's clear what enemy type you can tackle alone.

I decided to download Elder Scrolls Online & give it another chance tonight, took like 6 hours to download and patch. Made it through rooster island after doing all the objectives,
it was okay i didn't skip the dialogue that was the best part! combat was sort of boring. Random high level escorting his friend ran up & gave me 100,000 Gold very useful.
hopefully don't have to get too high a level for Night Market season 1 activity

I'm guessing animals will get the higher apm kit while frost gets the channel. Maybe they'll give the other trees some tank morphs to make up for frost being split, give plants a self-healing spriggan or strangler pull or something. What I'm really curious about is the skill styles, if they follow DK's example we'll just get Lego neon orange but I'm hoping for more animal swaps. Worst thing about wardens has always been the schizo thematics and styles could easily fix that.

Daggerfall Covenant.
Unlike other alliances zones, Rivenspire is required for you to understand the lore behind Western Skyrim and Markarth DLCs, and the latter is literally ties to Rivenspire. High Isles DLC also share a link with your Stros M'kai and Betnik zone pirate crew. Alik'r has Prince Azah who will be key to the Solstice DLC story. Not to mention that Darien,the alliance's flagship, will be key to the very Main Story in Coldharbour, Summerset and Solstice.
Ebonheart Pact only has the likes of Naryu who appears in several DLCs, having the Dark Brotherhood - Morrowind - Summerset sequence. Aswell as the separate side quests of Rigurt the Brash being an ambassador almost in every DLC.
Aldmeri Dominion only has Raz doing Ayrenn's job at the likes of Summerset while only doing side stuff at Elsweyr.
Basically, Daggerfall Covenant gets most of the cake lorewise.

How old was Ayrenn when she disappeared to Tamriel? I want to know if Razum-Dar is a pedophile or an ephebophile.

>"...In 2E 573, amid many signs and portents, she disappeared..."

She was 18, and I'm sure 18 for elves is not the same as 18 for humans
>>
>>2547814
>...In 2E 573, amid many signs and portents, she disappeared...
Source? the Valenheart loading screen says 2E 563
>>
>>2547814
Not culturally, but its more or less the same biologically. According to Real Barenziah they can take longer to become fertile, and that part probably isn't even true because it was all humans talking out their asses that still got surprised by an "early" pregnancy.

and
https://youtu.be/Tt0OSPYKIjs?t=210
That book says 563. Only UESP says 573.
>>
>>2550867
Just checked older versions of the UESP page and the text was changed from 563 to 573 from february 2014 to april 2015

If you check the lorebook in the game right now it says 573
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dYZrdbfTr8
the devs changed it at one point
>>
>>2549026
The book linked does not contain the phrase "amid many signs and portents"
>>
>>2550907
In game books are written by characters in the world, and not necessarily true. That sounds even more like she disappeared in 263 and they (the AD) are trying to cover that up.
>>
>>2550918
my nigga, a 8 y/o elf is not going to leave her home to explore tamriel
>>
>>2550934
Who says it was her choice?
>>
>>2550918
>>2550934
and no, not even Barenziah did that
>>
>>2550934
>Children never run away from home
>>
>>2551031
An 8 year old runaway would be (un)lucky to make it out of their town into the woods. Her backstory is stupid enough at 18, ZOS simply botched a date.
>>
>>2551308
Alternate theory: she died, they covered it up, and the Ayrenn in the game is an impostor.
>>
>>2551414
Why would an impostor risk such an insane cover story? Adventuring in what would mostly be her 20s is plausible enough even with the more outlandish parts like running with Maormer pirates, but starting from 8? Everyone would instantly call bullshit and investigate.
>>
>>2551508
The cover story is "I am Ayrenn, the woman you say disappeared. And here are the Eyes of the Queen, the substantial military/spy force under my command, fresh from the massacre at Cormount." The Aldmeri can't publicly denounce her because they don't want to reveal the real Ayrenn is already dead. People did call bullshit and investigate, they're called the Veiled Heritance.
>>
>>2551579
Admitting 8yo real Ayrenn electrocuted herself in the bath or something would be an embarrassment, but not to the point they'd roll over and let a blatant fraud steal the throne out from under the other heir they were just about to crown. And the heritance denied her policy, not her identity.
>Our leaders now bend knee to a wastrel child. A Queen of cats and midgets. An adventurer given the throne by an accident of blood. A wench more fit for a cup house than a throne room.
If there was any room to call her a straight up imposter they absolutely would've.
>>
>>2551632
More likely died of the Knahaten Flu, it was quite ferocious that year. And the embarrassment would be about lying for years about what happened, more than that she had died.
>>
>>2551673
Still nowhere near bad enough to boot the legitimate heir for a known fake. Hell, coming clean and stopping the coup would probably get them pardoned by Naemon, if only for his own optics.
>>
>>2551723
Maybe. Altmer are kind of weird about saving face and adhering to protocol.
>>
>>2551815
True, but the whole theory is way too convoluted. Ayrenn's death was covered up, then an impostor shows up with a story that makes no sense for her age, which no one exposes for fear of the first lie being uncovered, and this is all to explain one mismatched date in a loading screen.

Ayrenn being a Camoranbot or KINMUNE would be hilarious but this ain't the smoking gun, just a typo.
>>
>>2551865
There are other reasons the 273 date makes no sense. The same text states that they are expected to study Altmeri Regal Praxis and Ceremoniarchy for 3,555 days (ie, nearly 10 years) before ascending to the throne. But Naemon starts in 275 and is done by 280. Not enough time.

Realistically ZOS realized sending an 8 year old on adventures through Tamriel was suspicious and kludged the dates along, but they did a poor job of making it all match up.

TL;DR - Raz is a pedo.

So, with the upcoming overland difficulties tiers, would it be better to wear heavy armor with some dps stats (Order's Wrath) OR medium sets with defensive stats (Hexos)
>>
>>2552259
Most solo builds don't resort to heavy or tank sets. Pale order, mitigation skills and self heals should cover most things, then you can use health enchants or start splitting attributes if you really need it.

I have a feeling that the Ayrenn that came out of the Orrery ain't the real one anymore. Unlike her brother that came out an Ogrim, the Daedra who took her form has succesfuly copied her appearance.

I saw the soul magic stuff is unlocked with story preogression, is there anything else important behind it that I should rush to do? I've been just queuing for dungeons and barely doing any of that, first time playing.

No, nothing important or useful in the soul magic skill line
>>
>>2554315
you get a bunch of skill points
>>
>>2554315
Just few passives and its scribing skills.
>>
>>2554315
If you do PVP, Shatter Soul is important against Invisibility players like Nightblade, as its final detonation is also triggered if they go stealth.

Makes sense, ZOS wavebanned all the XBOX bot accounts right after getting created, before even starting to bot.

oblivion could be fixed with mods, the shitty stealth, enemy scaling that put everyone in daedric armor. fundamentally there wasn't much wrong with oblivion, you could even disable the quest markers since quests were descriptive enough. faction quests were actually meaty and like games within games, totally unlike skyrimjob where you became guild master after five quests, all of which involved going into a duergar tomb

>>2563188
the first time i played skyrim i thought my game was bugged. i joined the companions and after literally three quests, one of which involved beating up a drink guy with my fists, they invite me into the super secret werewolf inner circle. i was convinced my game got broken somehow it was so jarring. i didn't know then, but that was basically the entire summary of skyrim and how much of a shallow game it really was

where's glarthir, where's gaenor? i rest my case. zero soul
>>
Do you guys think we'll ever get new cgi cinematic trailers?
>>
>>2563226
I used to think like you and label Skyrim as being bare bones but then I took the truth pill. No amount of carefully scripted and longwinded quests will ever compare to the freedom of merely adventuring on your own, interacting with the world and forging your character's 'story' through mere gameplay.
And truly, if you've consumed plenty of books/movies/games no story presented by hired writers will ever feel new or exciting. I satisfy my cravings for good stories by reading books instead.
>>
>>2564266
but skyrim is worse than morrowind in that regard and worse than oblivion. just admit skyrim was babby's first bethesda game. the game objectively sucks

skyrim and oblivion are perfectly playable games from the get go while morrowind is such a turd that no amount of mods can save it.
>>

Bro literally put points in the weapon you're using and make some restore potions.
There's also a modlist that basically turns it into oblivion lite in terms of mechanics and makes the game look gorgeous if you're into that.

you have to learn how to manage your buffs, not blocking or doing anything to prevent resource gain when the game ticks, use line of sight to evade. no matter what my class is except stamsorc i like putting x3 swift on my jewelry. movement speed is such a great stat in this game and will keep you alive more than any amount of armor will. right now oakfather's is a strong set and can be front barred, i would run that with a defensive back bar in heavy armor 5-1-1, probably as a dk. i know corrosive armor is a thing, but good players are running corrosive detection mod and will block through or it or steak away, i do. i'd run death dealer's fete as a mythic or maybe malacath's for more damage if you want to opt out of running running major savagery which would free up a bar slot and a potion slot. freeing up a potion slot is is recommended since you want to be chugging armor pots which are totally overpowered, they restore health and give untyped 5280 armor and spell resistance that stacks with everything. run bloodspawn or marselok for your monster helm set

How easy is it to get a group going for the raids? How prepared do I need to be? Is it true older ones can be done solo?

Either they're wearing s&b for passive skill gain while running damage skills, or they're just new. A lot of new players doing dumb shit aren't necessarily retarded, the game is terrible at teaching and expects everyone to use third party guides from day 1.

What's actually next for this game?

It seems like nothing is reversing the downward trend of the population. The old type of content updates (like new dungeons and what not) isn't really having an impact. The new experimental stuff (difficulty options, class reworks, vengeance, or subclass) didn't have a lasting effect. There's a real chance of the peak population dropping below 10k players on steam in 2027. Maybe even 2026 depending what else gets released in the next 6 months. The three big things coming up is the whole puzzle room sages vault content, "naval" content (not sure what that will look like), world events, new story, and new trial. If season one doesn't pull in better numbers than 2025, I'm going to be very worried for this game. Especially with these layoffs incoming at Microsoft Xbox/gaming.
>>
>>2601880
The new leadership has a good vision, but MS probably doomed them by firing the entire Blackbird staff instead of shoving at least some back into ESO. It should not take two years to update six classes, and while its nice that they're trying to be more creative with smaller content, the fact that they NEED to asset flip their old shit is extremely bad. The lack of manpower is keeping existing players stuck in an unpleasant meta and stopping them from making anything interesting or bombastic enough to bring new people in.

A potential silver lining is that Asha supposedly wants to push the ES brand more, so *maybe* ZOS will get some much needed support. That or she'll toss a meteor at this outdated dinosaur and put someone to work on ESO2.

Pardon me, /tesog/. Is this game worth playing solo? I'm not really a fan of MMOs in the traditional sense, but an RPG might be up my alley. I doubt it'd be SW:TOR tier, but still.
>>
>>2602215
Yeah, its possible and probably more likely that ZOS gets more layoffs with the delusional expectation that AI will make up for it. Its also not impossible that she aborts some games and tells their studios to do elder scrolls instead, whether that means mobile trash, asset work for ESO, or actual new games. Restructuring will be a euphemism for mass layoffs in many cases (rip south of midnight devs lmao) but it can legitimately mean reassigning people from DOA bullshit to more profitable projects.

If they do get layoffs its actually over, fuckers won't even be able to produce crownslop at that point.
>>
>>2602571
Its one of the most solo friendly mmos, none of the story quests require groups and even most dungeons and world bosses are soloable once you know what you're doing. Whether its worth it depends on how desperate you are for a TES fix.
>>
>>2602977
>how desperate you are for a TES fix
Are you saying it's not a good TES game? Confused on that.
>>
>>2603014
ESO is a mmorpg game first and an Elder scrolls game second
>>
>>2602571
It is still MMORPGish in mechanics. But its soloable.
>>
>>2603014
I mean it loses a lot of appeal if you don't particularly care about Tamriel as a setting. As a TES game it should be good enough to tide you over til VI, but if you just want "an rpg" there are better options.
>>
>>2602571
Yeah, but most of the endgame stuff is group content outside of PvP, you can PUG the former if you're not completely averse to playing with others.
>>
Hot take: Weapon skill lines should be removed and spun into their own classes. 2H/S&B into a warrior, dw/bow into a ranger, staves into a mage with no daedra baggage.
>but I want to use X skills with my Y!
You could subclass and have an effective kit for it, instead of a bunch of underpowered and soon to be redundant gap fillers.
>but arena sets
Could be changed to proc off other conditions.

>>2604839
Yes, the drops are for the class you're playing with. After you acquired everything for said class, it starts dropping random stuff from other classes

Its already confirmed for at least 3 runs. First thing they need to fix is drops, base game gear from an event tuned for vet players was retarded. After that

U51 preview stream tomorrow, and a challenge difficulty GP. 23rd will be a dev stream about the stuff in S1 (might see the warden rework?), and the zeal event starts on the 24th.

i wish the difficulty settings didn't reduce your damage so much, im playing on the second highest, feels like enemies have too much hp because of how little damage you do, while also not really doing enough damage to you (the highest difficulty setting just seems overkill and annoying)

i had to use champion points to increase my damage just so i wasnt spending over 30 seconds on every single mob just rolling around in some retarded battle of attrition (im still low level atm)
>>
>>2614993
There wasn't much thought put into it, just damage sponging it with no actual reward.
Maybe if you could get increased quest rewards if you kept it higher from start to finish or something.
>>
>>2614993
Try running a dps companion, they're actually useful now since it doesn't affect them.

I imagine that is not the real reason. The people at zenimax are afraid of what is happening to xbox right now
>>
>>2619803
If you feed them to dragons, sure. Haven't had any issues with trash mobs so far.
>>2619933
I'm sure they're scared shitless but I don't see why that would delay one minor stream for only a few days, unless the "illness" was an anxiety attack because Sharma sharted at them over a zoom call. If they suddenly cancel the 23rd too it'll be panic time, but until then it probably was just someone eating a bad lunch and not having a replacement ready on short notice.
>>
>>2620039
Now that I think about it, there's an even funnier explanation. The steam time was given in BST instead of the usual NA time zones, so the dev(s) were probably in Europe. Now that MS is taking a microscope to its financials they might've noticed ZOS using brief streams as an excuse to vacation and ordered their asses back on a plane.
>>
these developers are worthless dick heads and don't deserve a single time. there's the most insane bug going on for months with under 50 battlegrounds where players under 40 have all their resources reduced by 2/3, susain down to 200 on all stats, resistances down to 1000 each, weapon damage down to 500 with 0 penetration. you literally get one shot and can't do any damage. fuck these stupid fucking people

>>2622128

Pve and pvp are both fucked up because ZOS catered to niche audiences that built up around major flaws any other game would've patched out ages ago. Most people don't want to master a goofy looking animation bug or spend hours upon hours learning how to deal with seemingly unkillable players.
>>
>>2622772
you can't whine about animation canceling, which looks fine anyway and not complain about how jarring it is that your weapons disappear every time you use class skills. that shit is the mos aesthetically offensive thing they have ever done and it's intentional
>>
>>2622834
>which looks fine anyway
lol
>and not complain about how jarring it is that your weapons disappear
I mean, now that you bring it up I will. That does look bad and they should've spent some of that crate money hiring better animators, but it doesn't impact gameplay like weaving does.
>>
are you guys liking the werewolf changes? i think it looks nice
>>
>>2626260
They're so bullshit overpowered its giving me Bloodmoon flashbacks. I love it. Seriously though, its encouraging to see something the old team neglected for so long get the same treatment as DKs, shows that it wasn't just class favoritism and we can expect similar from the reworks to come.

Also something to do other than deep fissure shalks

It'd be great if we could use any animal like WoW hunters, but unless the bear doesn't count toward the player animation limit they're limited to bear reskins or swapping it for a more versatile option like a wolf.
>>
>>2594048
The default UI is bloated and confined to a small box where you have to make multiple clicks. It's not make for computers. The addon fixes that nonsense.
>>
>>2506658
It comes to combat satisfaction. As the default content was just so pitifully easy that it just wasn't satisfying to do anything. The bad players won't care because things are already difficult for them. But for those what are looking for a bit more of a challenge, they can adjust as needed. But I agree, right now the problem is rewards. Its hard to really reward players because they don't want to split players into different instances. Which I think is the right call to keep the world feeling alive. But you can't be like "oh defeat this world boss on top tier difficulty and get a reward" because lower difficulty players can just carry you. All that being said, I think they should split delves into different instances dependent on difficulty. And then use that to reward players with titles or unique cosmetics. Along those same lines, unique titles/cosmetics for doing story in the higher tier difficulties, while disallowing different difficulty tier players from sharing story instances.

>>2578014
It was put to appeal to the "singleplayer" or "parallel play" focused players. Which make up a majority of this games revenue (compared to "endgame" players) as they're the ones buying the loot crates, housing, etc. ESO is in a very similar position that SWTOR is. I would not be surprised that when TES6 releases in 2028, we'll see like a 50% drop in players in ESO on release week. That plus Gw3 launching is going to be a HUGE strain on ESO.

I wish they'd add a way to swap your class completely, subclassing is alright I guess but with class mastery it feels like most are great single class still.

Swapped my templar healer back to one class to get the single class buff. I'm glad they did this, I would even do more choices in the future.

Haven't played much recently. I enjoyed trials and group dungeons and the like, any new ones? Can we marry companions or Naryu yet?
>>
>>2638045
I would prefer they keep ESO companions from trying to finger your ass like SWTOR ones do.
>>
Did they announce anything?
>>
>>2638045
>any new ones?
We're getting a Hunting Grounds trial later this year. No new dungeons announced yet.
>Can we marry companions or Naryu yet?
Only Darien's romance is implemented so far. Also a lot of flirt options with various npcs that don't go anywhere. Naryu is probably next.
>>2638160
Just a few qol things and elaborating on things they announced earlier. PTS got pushed back to the end of the month so the warden rework apparently wasn't ready to show off.
>>
>>2638160
Not really much.
Companions will be able to wear helmets on update 52
They showed all the new 4 alchemy reagents, pretty cringe ways to get them, one is from imperial city sewers, one of from treasure maps, one is from chopping wood in cold areas or killing undead in cold areas and the last one is from solo dungeons
Speaking of solo dungeons they'll have unique monster sets and also drop gold companion gear
There's was also fully customizable and moveable UI
Then they spent the rest of the stream talking about the Nowhere Vault (formerly Sage's Vault) and it'll be a no-combat purely puzzle/jump/stealth content, it's semi-roguelike and the rewards are not very clear yet but they did mention skyshards, cosmetics and a new mythic item with a lot of hidden secrets for extra rewards
>>
Since when are items inside the Daggerfall Docks ships (The Lydia and The Hotspur) not marked as stolen?
>>
>>2638682
>the warden rework apparently wasn't ready to show off
can't even imagine how they will go by fixing that class
>>
>>2640212
Safe bet their numbers will get crazy like DK and WW, after that its just a matter of cleaning up their jumbled thematics in the visual refresh. The latter could be part of why they wanted extra time, they may want to ship it with more skill styles instead of repeating the backlash they saw with DK.

I hope it's good. I like the idea of warden but it feels pretty weak outside of shulks

>>2642200
I see myself using tank companions more than anything else
they don't instantly die and can keep enemies from damaging you
Zerith and Isobel do really well in this role
>>
>>2642200
I use Isobel/Zerith as tanks, Sharp as a healer, and Ember/Mirri as dps (only for vestige, they hit like pool noodles normally). The rest are benched, Bastian is good for HA builds but I'm not using any, Azandar is annoying so he only got leveled for his passive, and Tanlorin is easily the worst character in the franchise.
