Re: Solstice: Rampart Camp Wayshrine?
Same goes for the siege camps. You can discover them but map shows nothing.

Re: Suggestion: give us a "treasure" vault similar to furnishing vault
A document folio that works like the craftbag for surveys, maps, etc.. has been requested many times. The stackable unknown writs/surveys envelopes is what we got instead.
Suggestion: give us a "treasure" vault similar to furnishing vault
The introduction of a furnishing vault has done wonders to my inventory management (still need more bank and inventory space though), but the new solution to the master writs is lacklustre.
My suggestion is this: introduce more Vaults with different capabilities, such as storing surveys, treasure maps and master writs in them. You managed to solve the issue with furnishings, and it would be great if you gave us a similar solution to furnishing vaults. You can keep them as part of ESO+; just give us the ability to access the vault through a vault assistant (like a banker).
I really hope you at ZOS consider implementing more vaults that have different objectives. It's a perfect solution if you insist in not increasing bank and inventory space.

Re: Total invisibility in PVE zones?
I've wondered if nodes are shared across different instances of a zone.
With the being at different stages of a quest thing that used to play heck with our hide and seek events. Also made fishing events interesting. Half your group could disappear but you could see their bobbers in the water.

Re: Daedric War quest order screwed?
Got it, thanks for the replies! I’m really excited to start Daedric War. Heard it’s one of the best Elder Scrolls stories!
Re: cyrodil needs an instance with just overland sets and crafted gear only
We already use lots of crafted gear in all campaigns.
What we should have is the old Ravenwatch with no proc sets.
The way Ravenwatch is now, its dead.

One thing they could do is move their anti-cheat detection from server to client-side. It's one of the causes of the performance problems in PvP - the server is constantly validating and comparing data to detect cheating.
I'm old so my memory might be questionable, but didn't it start off that way and zos changed it due to rampant cheating?

Re: Releasing old hackers back into the game.
Should ZOS remove their hands so they can never cheat on a video game again? Getting permanently banned and having to start over on a new account seems like a pretty reasonable price to pay.

Two amazing parts of the lore you hate? Lol
Re: On a scale of 1-10, what would you give the story of Solstice & why?
meh
The main quest wasn't bad, but it definitely wasn't anything to write home about. It was very standard fare - at least there wasn't an insulting NPC following you the whole time treating you like you had two and a half brain cells, but there were still enough mandatory dialogue options that still implied that your character was a blithering idiot.
As for the "big twist" we got... ugh. ESO has hit that point for me of "all emotional weight is gone since we can just bring people back from the dead if the plot (and the fanbase's fantasies) demand it." Seriously, we got one character to die in the quest and the only thing I thought was "oh that's slightly unexpected. I wonder what contrived reason they'll come up with to bring that character back in part 2." It was like the character's death did not affect me in the slightest.
I'm also over Raz being in literally everything. Please let him go back to his family in Merivale and give him a rest. After all, he did die in the basegame and keeps popping back up over and over again... because death is evidently nothing more than a minor inconvenience in Tamriel.
As for the side quests... also meh. Corelanya Manor's was good enough, but I could have done without the Shor's Stand one. At least that version of a Rigurt story didn't make all Nords look like drunken buffoons, but I really didn't see the point of just gender swapping Rigurt because reasons. Rigurt (and Laurent/Stibbons) are definitely on my list of "if they never show up ever again, it'll still be too soon."
But definitely one of the things I've noticed is that I'm always feeling like I'm rushed to do the stories. Before, I could do them at my leisure (and I normally waited until the crowds died down so I wouldn't see 50+ other people in the "tomb that hasn't been opened in 1000 years." I wanted to make sure I had time to really sit down and take the story slow. But lately, I'm feeling super rushed to get it done - Necrom's major spoiler was literally revealed in the Gold Road reveal event before Necrom even went to DLC, ZOS put out a spoilery Loremaster's Archive pretty soon after Solstice released that expected all of us to do the story within a few weeks, etc.
I always look at that like when we were told to read in school: if you read for fun, you enjoy it. If a teacher hands you a book and tells you to read it, then it's work and it feels like a chore, and you don't enjoy it. So this whole feeling like I need to shove "do the quest" into my schedule means that I just naturally am not going to enjoy it as much as if I just could do it on my own terms.
Regarding the "oh, too many world-ending threats" debate: that doesn't really bother me much... but we should get a mix of some smaller-scale things as well. Orsinium is still the best story this game has done hands down, and that was a story that had effects on the zone of Wrothgar and some ripple effects through the Covenant... and that was it. I'm not one of those people who gets all bent out of shape about timelines (in my headcanon, I've got several characters who are heroes of their own story, so it's not like it's all one character), and these stories are all definitely not happening at the same time.
I don't think the story needs to say that any given story happens on a specific date since the lore in general is pretty well a black box between 2E 580 and around 800, when there are secessions in Elsweyr and we're getting the 2nd AD formed. I actually prefer the old Loremaster's idea of "time in-game is personal to you. Given that multiple players can play content in any order" since that gives us the ability to fill in those gaps in the way that makes the most sense to us - for the one-character-wonder players, it makes sense that the world should be in like the 2E 600s by now, but for others who spread out their heroes, it could still be within a year or two. Trying to pin everything down restricts freedom.
