Re: Nerf to Ansuul’s, Tide-born, and Velothi is gutting my Arcanist build
Those are literally my 3 main set items I run all together on my Arcanist. Who else is in the same boat? Any thoughts and suggestions? Discuss
Any nerf to beam builds is welcome and deserved, what's bad about it?

I wanted to chime in and agree. I've been soloing in MMOs for decades and I always solo. I have no problem with providing various kinds of content that caters to grouping, raiding, guilds, etc. Just please don't make ESO solo-unfriendly as that would make me abandon this game entirely, and I've been playing on and off since inception.
Then why aren't you just playing Skyrim on you own single player computer?
Based on some of your replies, I can see where the problem truly lies, and it's not with the other players of ESO.

The tome quest, weekly as well as seasonal, are boring as hell. Therefore, I just canceled my subscription. No content, no money!

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
I'm pulling 45k on the 6m dummy to try on my end to translate proof (or lack there of) for overbearing damage running full damage sets slated for PvP (i.e. not a dueling set like rele) with the standard tri-glyphs and mag recovery for werewolf heal (PTS is dead rn I cannot find anyone to duel)
~build~
I have on fully golded monomyth, Yandir's might (just heavy attack once every 15 seconds for 680 BUFFABLE wep/spell), Aerie's cry (literally a damage proc set that gives me more damage than essence thief; 'free' minor toughness from skill line), 1 pc magma, 1 pc monomyth (it's bugged if you die in wolf so this was from a fresh transformation) , flame/poison glyphs with nirnhoned + sharpened, and Orzorga's for food.
Disclaimer: I know there is still more of a focus on having stam recovery on this build which I could certainly reduce to have more straight stats with sustain changes (this would NOT net me MORE than 3k additional on this parse I consider this inconsequential for the message I am trying to relay.
~parse method (skills roto)
focused on keeping any and every skill and buff up only when needed (refresh at last second) while making sure to use spammable ANY opportunity I have the chance outside of those parameters.
///
For reference, I believe a meta PvE DPS is 60-70k+... which means a build like that would do MORE sustained damage in PvP than wolf since the claim is 'this is the highest you've ever seen'.
So the only complaint you must have here is that this 45k is being done on one bar... and I don't know what you're really wanting here as this is the dev's choice and it desperately needed this rework (and I'm going to be real in saying that... it took 5-10 years to get this). If they nerf numbers into oblivion for PTS alone, especially based on testimony, it will most likely never compete with subclassing and the ilk, and never be viable again).
*another disclaimer, 'burden of proof' is not on me (i.e. video to demonstrate my claim) since 100k parse with meta sets exists in same form (100k being good but only being up to 75% of top-end dps with beam, etc.) : )
Respectfully, this setup is awful. You're on the wrong class, you're using sustain when you can legitimately build zero regen and use double armor potions with 35k+ HP and stamina on the correct class, and you're hitting a PVE dummy to try and prove that the PVP parses I shared are somehow irrelevant.
I'm not trying to see WW nerfed in PVE in any case. It definitely did need a rework as it was sort of "dead content" in both areas of the game, outside of roleplay/fantasy for people who enjoy that sort of thing. I don't mind seeing the damage, mechanical, and utility buffs it received.
I do have an issue when a build with half the mechanical complexity of a meta PVP build is outputting double the damage, though. Especially when that damage has nearly no counterplay other than "run maras/cleansing revival/wyrd tree".
My original question was just that; a question. Are class mastery passives supposed to be working in WW form? If this is intended, then there might need to be some adjustments based on the numbers we're seeing on the PTS. Things like adding "against monsters" stipulations to certain skills, much like they did with the reworked DK.

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
I can sympathize with the PvE WW defenders in this thread. As they don't want their class to get pre-emptively dumpstered. We've all been there.
But they also don't know what these numbers mean in context or how ridonkulous they are in comparison to... basically anything that's ever existed. This is like the PvP equivalent of casually pulling 300k DPS at a time when others are still struggling to crack 200k.
I am not a sweaty duelist but I have a great deal of respect for the judgement as well as the findings of those few that are. Folk like React and Alchemiste have domain mastery that anyone in this thread really should pay attention to. Especially if you do not actually PvP yourself. The above screen-caps speak for themselves. That isn't "a little overperforming". It is in a completely different "stratosphere".

Re: What is the deadest (player count) overland zone hub IYO?
Lilmoth, Murkmire.
It has guild traders. I loved the Murkmire story. Enjoyed the zone. I can think of no reason to ever return to it once you've finished it.

Re: From Balance Issues to Overpriced Bundles: What Happened to ESO?
I won't even acquire it via gifting for gold in game because I don't wish to contribute to that kind of pricing. That's just crazy. Absurd crazy IMO.
Re: I'm tired of soloing all the time.
That will kill trading, which is one of the last things left in this game that I enjoy.
Re: Please don't shut down Blackreach
They should leave Grey Host as alliance locked, and keep Blackreach as non-alliance locked
Vengeance can be the 3rd option
That will make sure all bases are covered for players who prefer standard PVP vs the toned down Vengeance campaign
It’s clear this change was made to force people in Vengeance, because they know it will be a dead campaign most of the time

Re: Please don't shut down Blackreach
As a more casual pvp'r, who still likes to delve into the diversity of sets and skills, I agree that Blackreach occupies an important space that has been overlooked and it should remain open as a third choice.
