Are you guys going to add a feature to bind armors together? I carry around three sets of armor on my travels, and when I'm changing it can be a pain in the neck.

There's a few add-on's that allow you to put sets together and equip/unequip them with the click of a button.

I am looking to buy the game for PC and I understand that there was only a select window of time to allow players to transfer characters from PC to Console but do you have any plans to make it a purchasable service or are you going to require players to simply restart from scratch upon it's release for next gen consoles? IF that's the case then I think I might postpone my purchase.

I saw something about that at the very bottom of the ESO : unlimited FAQ

https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/

It said nothing about a time window. Just that they would inform you via email if you are eligible... not sure if they will do it when it launches on console.

hope that helped.

Is there any attack speed buff plans in the near future for champion system or otherwise. Since haste was taken away in 1.6 there are 0 attack speed buffs for anyone. Haste kinda of a made the rouge a rouge being able to attack fast, it's sad to see it go.

2.)Will ZoS Ban international IP's and VPN's? Usually when a game goes b2p or f2p the international community (South America/Russia/China) with their insane population and high latency flood the servers creating massive lag and ruining the experience. I've seen a lack of policing of international IP's ruin many many F2p MMO's. Is ZoS considering this?

I hope they add them soon! But it might be a bit hard since they're in Skyrim, and I don't remember hearing anything about them being located anywhere else in Tamriel... So players would be able to access it long before other players.

Here are the questions that we answered during the January 30th episode of ESO Live! If we didn't get to your question, keep posting in this thread for a chance to be featured in a future AUA segment!


If I buy ESO today in a box, or from a certain digital game distributor, will their codes still work? Even passed the date of ESO: Unlimited launch?

Yes. If you purchase a physical or digital copy of The Elder Scrolls Online today, your game code will still work. This will also be the case if you do so after March 17th. Our account system will automatically update your game to Tamriel Unlimited when you patch and log in to play.

Is Spellcrafting still being worked on? Will it be in the game before console release?

Spellcrafting is not being worked on at the moment, but it is still planned. We’ve worked on it quite a bit, but other work such as the Justice and Champion Systems were prioritized over it. That’s the nature of development and live development especially. We’ll get back to it when we can.

With the Justice System, when attacking someone for their bounty, is it a 1 on 1 initiated fight or will everyone be able to attack a player with a bounty on his/her head?

This is getting into the specifics of the PvP portion of the Justice System, which is not in Update 6. The idea is you would have to be an Enforcer to dish out Justice. So long as you were flagged an Enforcer, you would be able to freely attack any criminal—or Outlaw. However, criminals would also be able to freely attack you.

I would like to hear more on how Enlightenment works. Do we have to be offline to gain it? Or does everyone (regardless of time played) receive the same amount of Enlightenment every 24/hours?

Everyone receives the same amount of Enlightenment for a 24 hour period. Think of it as a clock; when it strikes 12:00PM, everyone has Enlightenment added.

Will there be an update with another Daedric Prince who will try to threaten us all?

Maybe! Anything is possible in MMO game development. If this is something we end up doing, you can be sure we’ll make a big announcement about it.

Do you do motion capture with optical systems for animations or are you just animating by looking at video references? What was the deciding factor in choosing this route?

Currently we don’t use motion capture animation. All our animation is hand-keyed by our animators, often using video reference. We chose to use the more traditional methods based on the stylized nature of our game design as it was evolving. As we look to the future, using motion capture with optical systems for certain situations is something that we may consider.

When talking about being able to stealth in NPC's notice area, does this include the Cyrodiil flag NPCs? And how about the changes to the stealth "hidden" eye, does this include NPCs that are currently able to instantly spot you (e.g. Cyrodiil flag NPCs)?

Cyrodiil remains untouched by the Justice System changes for stealth detection. Everything in Cyrodiil, including guard behavior at keeps and resources, functions just as it did prior to Update 6.

Will we ever see places in the game that are familiar to all fans, like Balmora, Seyda Neen and others? If we compare the map of the world in ESO and the world map of Tamriel in general, we see a lot of missed locations.

We certainly hope so!

Why is caltrops proc'ing as a melee attack? This causes Red Diamond passive (heal) to proc without cooldown which is kind of silly.

This is a bug, and will be fixed before Update 6 goes live.

Will you move some of the Wayshrines and guild traders to be more in line with those in Rawl'kha where the Wayshrine, 5 guild vendors, Bank, daily crafting quest turn-ins, and crafting stations are all right on top of each other?

This is an interesting suggestion, but we don’t have any current plans to move them.

Will PvP players see new set items like Arch Mage Rings for better set combinations in the future?

We will be releasing new item sets in the future. Stay tuned for details!

Would it be possible to make the skeletons from the gemstone of skeletal visage race and gender specific? At the moment you are turned into a generic male human skeleton.

That is a great suggestion, and we’ll look into the possibility of doing so in future update.

Will players who purchased the game on PC and are eligible to transfer to PS4 or Xbox1 be able to do so by the console release date?

Yes! We plan to make the transfer option available to those who are eligible well before June. We will contact all who are eligible via email wen the transfer option is available on our site.

What, if any, assurance can be offered to your current subscribers that the crown store won't be pushed and pointed to at every opportunity as box sales plateau and the store becomes a larger portion of income - for those of us who associate cash shops with increasingly negative experiences within MMOs?

We believe much of the negative connotation with cash shops stems from the fact that often, when a game undergoes such a change, the game is manipulated and affected in ways that make it less fun unless you spend money in the store. That is not the approach we want to take. We might offer things that relieve some in-game friction, but we won’t be adding friction to the game. We will continue to develop items for the Crown Store that sell convenience and customization.

We operate under the philosophy that the more people participating in longer play-sessions with friends and just enjoying themselves in the game, the more opportunities there will be for our community to find something they may want to purchase in the Crown Store.

Our plan is to stock the store with offerings that make our players excited to invest further in their experience. We understand that many will simply buy and play the base game, and that’s great too!

Why can't we build campfires with all the wood we cut?

While we have no specific plans for this, we love to hear player ideas on new ways to use existing items in the game. Please keep the suggestions coming!

If new zones are going to scale to your level, does that mean they will be instanced, and that we therefore won't be able to see any other players if we're not grouped?

No, it doesn’t mean new zones will be instanced. We’ll release details when we’re a little closer to releasing new zones.

If we are allowed to copy our characters to Xbox One, can we then go back to PC and continue to play that account? Do I pay two different subs for Xbox and PC?

If you are eligible to transfer your characters from PC/Mac to PS4 or Xbox One, your characters will be copied. So, you’ll have your characters on PC/Mac, and a copy of them on either PS4 or Xbox One. You will need a PC/Mac account and a PS4 or Xbox One account. They are, for all intents and purposes, separate. So, if you choose to purchase an ESO Plus membership, you would need one for your PC/Mac account, and one for your PS4 or Xbox One account.

Will you offer new Motifs in the new Crown Store?

New motifs are being discussed for future DLC that will be offered in the Crown Store. So in that way: Definitely. As to whether or not we’ll offer Motifs a la carte, that isn’t decided.

Will bounties from one faction areas carry over to another? I play Ebonheart Pact and would not like to be known as a criminal in that faction and still want people to speak to me in that faction. If I got to a DC area and rack up a bounty will I only be seen as a criminal there, and will I only have a bounty when in that factions areas?

Bounties are universal (account-wide) in the ESO. We went back and forth on this quite a bit. In the end, we felt it was too easy to game the system without consequence if bounties were not universal.

Is Wrothgar still going to be a solo zone? Is Murkmire still going to be a group zone?

Wrothgar will be a zone very much like Auridon, Rivenspire, etc. However, it won’t have level requirements.
