Re: Having an inventory issue... transmutes! (undaunted event)
If you consider the amount of armor sets has at least doubled since the introduction of the sticker book, i think we are well over due an extension to the amount of storable tranmutes from a functionality perspective.
However like anything inventory wise, there will always be people that have issues irrespective of where they set a limit.
When i hit 1000 i tend to farm a bit of nirncrux or other materials from them.

Re: Warden Charm: we all know.
i want it to be good in pve. if it dropped a frost damage field, or even a magic damage field instead of an annoying charm, that'd be better for everyone.
Re: Tone-deaf AUA on Reddit
Whilst I dislike many of the decisions made by the combat team and think some of those decisions have genuinely made the game worse this is a recurring problem of playerbase vs combat lead.
We've gone through cycles of hate with basically all the combat leads / devs the game has had. I kind of feel at this point it's more of a communication issue than anything else.
ZOS seems to run on the principle of give the players what they need not what they want.
I.E The Dev's know best and will implement what they want rather than what players suggest.
I think in a lot of cases there is merit to this, a lot of player requests are truly terrible and would make the game even worse. However to be managed well there needs to be a lot of communication with the players as to why changes are being made and what 'the plan' is. This is what is mainly lacking when changes like class sets, then scribing then subclassing which all seem to contradict each others vision and remain 1/2 done.
Also as a note from personal experience of a brief chat with @ZOS_BrianWheeler he seemed like a nice guy who cared a lot about PVP and so has a positive vote from me, just wish there was a bit more communication and consultation before changes were considered/worked on.

Re: Only Old Style Pages Dropping for Undaunted Event
I just got one of the new Opal Scourge Harvester pages from a purple event coffer, after having gotten an older Opal Swarm Mother pages in the golden event coffer, so you should be able to grind for the new pages by farming purple event coffers.
Re: Monster arms pack
I am so mad that we don't have the complete sets yet.
We've got some arms packs (and their associated mask/shoudler style pages) that have never been available, and it's been up to 5 years now!
Another thing: based on the list of releases, the most recent brand new offerrings were:
PLEASE ask the team to start bringing these out at a more regular schedule. It's ridiculous that some have been completely unavailable for as long as they have been.]
I've been wanting to get Devy's mask/shoulder pages for ages now, and still nothing. I'm also really interested to see how they do the Stone Husk set - the effects from the boss definitely make me think lasers would be involved, and I'd absolutely love if the 1H of the Stone Husk just ended up essentially being a lightsaber - just a hilt when sheathed, and a laser sword when readied.
- Stone Husk, from Stone Garden (2020)
- Magma Incarnate, from Dread Cellar (2021)
- Archdruid Devyric, from Earthen Root Enclave (2022)
- Ozezan the Inferno, from Scrivener's Hall (2023)
- Anthelmir's Construct, from Oathsworn Pit (2024)

Re: Having an inventory issue... transmutes! (undaunted event)
Two options, make monster sets you have all 6 copies and store for future use and store or transmute weapons for stones you then keep or sell

Re: PTS Participation & Experience Survey
Hi @ZOS_Kevin ,
I shared this idea in the survey, but I also wanted to bring it up here.
Has the development team ever considered running a Closed Beta Test (CBT) before launching the PTS for a new update? As we all know, by the time the PTS goes live, many of the changes are already finalized for the live release, which means there’s usually little room to make meaningful adjustments during the PTS cycle. Because of this, a lot of feedback from the PTS may end up being overlooked simply due to time constraints.
What if, before opening the PTS, there was a CBT with invited players—experienced and respected members of the ESO community—who could provide more objective feedback and suggestions on the new content? That way, the dev team would have more time to react and make adjustments before the PTS phase.
What do you think about this idea?

Re: Tone-deaf AUA on Reddit
The recent AUA on Reddit was just terrible. I can't put it any other way. How you can be so blind and defensive to reasonable feedback regarding consumables and sets is just baffling. I want to be constructive and leave it at that.
Just listen to Skinny Cheeks. He is making valid points and is a longtime standing community member and content creator, so he knows what the community is worried about.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=w0BbaObAw_k&t=401s
I am totally against making any adjustments to consumables. Wheeler is right to push back on this and to make a strong case for having this approached in a slower, more constructive manner. If the balance for classes is messed up already and we all know it to be true, then why rush making changes to consumables? It's a bad idea right now and Wheeler has the right of it on this one. The way players are dealing out damage in PvP, a health pot barely covers it. Just barely worth even having tbh. I can only imagine nerfring pots or food any further at this time. *Cringe*
I think you misunderstood the point, Skinny didn't directly ask to adjust consumables on his comment, Wheeler only assumed so since Skinnycheeks mentioned how hybridization wasn't really finished, as he fears the same will happen with subclassing.
When people say hybridization isn't finished, it's mainly due to how weapon/spell damage have pretty much no reason to be separated stats anymore, we've been expecting them to fuse those two and named buffs related into a single damage stat, hence why Wheeler assumed Skinny was talking about consumables, since they're related to this change, though the fact he only specified consumables makes me assume he doesn't really know the logic behind it.
Overall, this change wouldn't really nerf or buff consumables, we'd just fuse Prophecy and Savagery into one, and same for Major Brutality and Sorcery, since every source that provides those buffs will always provide BOTH as if they were one, except consumables for... some reason?
And also, we're not just asking for this right now, we know they have their hands full with subclassing (though they don't seem to know it sometimes), we've been asking for this since hybridization, it's been 3 years.
Skinny's not the only one to discuss the consumables changes, as I've heard different ideas from other places. I think it's important for anyone who has stake in this game to provide their opinion, and I'll refer to what they said as my policy is to never speak for anyone else.
That said, I brought my own points into this ring based on my experiences with this game. I'll refer any interests back to my original post and no further explanation should be necessary for my part. I think we all contribute important points to this conversation and now is a perhaps a better time for ZOS to listen while they get things in order and plan on how to move forward.
I know he wasn't the only one, but the discussion on this topic started after Wheeler answered his comment, and you mentioned it being a bad idea since balance is crazy right now due to subclassing, and you'd be probably right judging how they seem to be struggling right now, but this is a feedback we've been giving them since before hybridization even hit live, 3 years before subclassing, so the state the game is now doesn't really serve as an excuse for them not listening to feedback back then.
It's just another little thing that they swept under the rug and we don't want the same happening again.

Re: Been playing ESO for years and this just clicked...
I am more troubled by the fact that the moons seem to be locked in orbit with respect to each other. They would be different distances away and would not be constantly the same visual distance apart.
Re: Been playing ESO for years and this just clicked...
They should be named correctly. In order from left to right in your picture:
https://developingexperts.com/file-cdn/images/get/3c5a178f-0869-44ca-a71d-8b7c740d7209
I think the confusion might lie in the order of display. If the full moon were put in the middle with the waxing on the left and the waning on the right, it would match up to the order as displayed on most images for the Earth's moon.
- Full moon
- Waning moon
- New moon
- Waxing moon
