RoA needs to be removed. Deleted.
Warden charm needs a 20s cooldown or be removed.
Imo, all CC skills need to be single target, single effect skills.

Re: Could ZOS please make their position on boosting for Cyrodill emperor unambiguous?
Not to mention the sexually aggressive stalkers trying to harass people out of the game. At best those are getting temporary bans which they sidestep by playing one another account for a few days.
No one will accept this as true. This has gotten to the point where my husband doesn't want me playing this game any more.
ZOS needs to stop letting players log on the game from VPN's. Just yesterday, this creepy player admitted to having a toon parked on EP while main on AD.
As for hammer, they should REMOVE it from game.
Sucks that this is an issue (it shouldn't be, and it's up to ZOS to do more to address this), but I wouldn't go blaming VPNs for this (toxic people will always find ways to be toxic, even if VPNs never existed), especially since players already can and do play on multiple accounts from the same computer very easily with zero VPN required.
VPNs (gaming ones) are very useful for players who live far from the servers to stabilize their ping/latency such that they aren't forced to play a game that constantly fluctuates from 300 ping to 30k ping every other second (making combat essentially impossible), keeping it at a more stable 300-350 ping that, while still delayed at least is consistent and playable.
Re: How close are you to finishing the Subclassing grind?
It's a thing I might look into at some point, but so far, I'm not that interested.

Re: How close are you to finishing the Subclassing grind?
I refuse to touch subclassing.
I said to a dozen people that I will never engage in it and am NOT going to go back on my word.

Re: General crafting issue
Not only are the Daily Crafting Writs profitable but when you have maxed your all your crafting skills and done all researchable traits, you then have the ability to create any type of gear or weapon or jewelry or provision or potion or poison or enchantment that you desire. And that is a very great ability in the game.
Then, by doing Master Writs, which are earned from doing Daily Writs, will earn you Writ Vouchers which can be exchanged for valuable items. (You will also earn "Surveys" from which you will acquire large quantities of the raw materials that you need!)
But, the truth is, it takes time to acquire those skills and to do the trait research and, therefore, it's a bit like eating your vegetables and doing your homework. Not always pleasant but usually very good for you.
When I first started playing this game six years ago last June, I felt that I didn't need to do the crafting. Very soon I changed my mind and realized it was an integral part of the game with great benefits.
When you log on each day, if the first thing that you do is go straight to the crafting boards and pick up your seven daily Writs and complete them and also start or continue any research that you are doing, I believe that you will agree, after a while, that it's a mere 10 or 15 minutes work for very substantial rewards.

Re: ZOS, Massive Spike in Ping/LAG in Recent Days - What Gives?
Just checked to see if the same ping and desync issues were occurring in PC EU servers, NOPE! I'm in central US, but my ping and desync are both better playing on the EU server than NA server. There's no light attack/abilities failing to cast on the EU server, and the ping does not spike randomly to 999+ms.
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin what's happening to PC NA servers??

Re: ZOS, Massive Spike in Ping/LAG in Recent Days - What Gives?
I have raised the Akami issue for over a year. My connection is an average 2-3 ms to the server EXCEPT for Akami. I have nothing but 50-60% packet loss and insane route numbers around the TWO Akami hops I have. I've shown over and over my routes without Akami and with Akami causing problems in the game.
I've been told what I am seeing is not an issue and plays no part of the problem. Got tired of arguing and just gave up.

BG: MMR problem
Hello.
Ok i'm doing a lot of Battleground with random 4vs4 groups
It was cool and when the level of the players is rather decent, it's really nice
But for some time now, it seems the way MMR is calculated has been changed and I find myself much more regularly with players of a very low level and in particular their PvP level.
What I mean is, for example:
- During a deathmatch, I'm the only player on my team who jumps into the arena to fight, while the other three stay on the ledge (from the start of the game), spamming arrows and staff attacks. Needless to say, 1v4 is a bit difficult to survive.
- I know the maps the devs designed are beautiful, but many players spend most of their time during capture the flag games visiting the maps, like tourists in an arena, outside the flag zones (which makes the game a losing one).
- Many players give up easily and stay at the base.
I play BG with several of my characters but the problem is that to increase MMR, you have to win games, either get kills in deathmatch, or heal in team games and score points in capture the flags etc.. Needless to say, winning games with such comrades is quite hard.
Would it be possible to change the way MMR is calculated and thus allow players to play with people of their own skill level?
It's very annoying when the skill gap is too large (in every sense).
