The Justice System is SO much better than I was expecting it to be

I was expecting the Justice System to be small and out of the way. Thinking you could only kill a few NPCs.

But I'm so glad I was wrong.

You can kill A LOT of NPCs. You can pickpocket A LOT of NPCs. You can break into A LOT of houses.



I've never had so much fun in ESO. Thank you ZOE for this amazing patch.

    Yeah, and they also added ALOT of items for you to steal. I think over 1,000. It's a lot of fun, and I love seeing people flee from the guards lol.

    When I took a peek on PTS that's one of the first things I noticed: someone sneaking around trying to pickpocket, NPC notices, starts screaming at them, mayhem ensues. Great fun!

    I'm pretty sure everyone is going to do it, at least at first for the achievements and leveling the legerdemain lines.

    its fun to watch someone trying to steal something and get caught and kill that NPC out of frustration and guards chasing them, oh cant wait for all of this.
    In case if you wonder whether i will be doing crimes (i have stolen enough items to put me in jail until Dragonborn comes after 1000 years >:) )

    How do provisioning items work? Just steal them without getting caught and you can go cook them? Or do you have to launder them via a fence first and can only launder a few a day? Are the items to steal first come, first serve? So if player X steals a valuable provisioning ingredient, it disappears and no one else can steal it? Does it ever reset/respawn?

    not sure about stolen ingredients yet but you can still easly get non stolen ingrients outside of towns or from enemy hideouts

    I dont want to steal but current system actually gives you little option.

    Which reflects the real world. Which may not be a fair thing to say about a game. But a game where there are merchants and ways (now) to obtain stuff without stealing. Just... don't steal. It's not a hard concept.

    When I was foolering around on PTS, I was really impressed by the text for each of the stolen items I found! Sometimes the summary was extremely specific, and other times it was kind of a vague surface level descriptor, like something that a medium level antiques appraiser would be able to tell you from eyeballing an unfamiliar (and not especially valuable) piece. I love little details like that!

    If it makes you feel any better ... the dungeons I tried have unowned loot in containers. I found unowned crates and bags on the balconies of some of the buildings.

    Damn! I really thought I remember reading a mod post that said they were going to fix that before release. Must have been wishful thinking.

    The justice system is basically the only thing I did on the PTS at all... I intended to do other stuff, but I didn't really spend that much time on PTS, and the entire time it just seemed like going around stealing and running away from guards was the best idea.

    I think an event should be organised amongst ourselves where we band into Zergs and run rampant killing everything in the major citys.
    If real life had a block function i would go out more.

    Maybe this is a reason to stop spamming heals in Banks, etc.?

    You know that you don't get ultimate from this anymore, right?
