Re: Do you think ZOS should rollback subclassing and focus on class balance instead?
I don't say this as an insult, I say this as a dude who has been there.
Your obsession isn't healthy and it's not going to make a difference. This isn't a 2005 MMO in which the forums are the center of the community. Whatever we agree or disagree on here is largely irrelevant.
We must respect the direction of the game is the prerogative of the developers. Many of us live in a representative democracy, but that doesn't mean everything can or should be democratized.
ZOS chose a path, most players have adapted to it, so they should stick with it. It WILL change again, because it always has to change, but probably not for a while.
What you're seeing in the forums isn't reflective of an unhappy community. Look at what happens when the servers go down for a couple of hours. There's instantly a 20 page thread about it.
There's a lot of unhappiness about u47 right now because MMO players never take reduced performance well, but not subclassing as a whole.

Now that the new MMO has been cancelled and the focus is now back on ESO, the way forward is going to be interesting. Do you think the future of ESO is in subclassing or returning to balancing classes with an eye to discrete new classes?
Re: Riddles of the Dragon bugged
The Arenthia riddle lockbox is in the Fighter’s Guild behind the corner of the counter.
Re: Is it a bug that I get two merciless resolve arrows?
Probably a bug, you should be able to fire 3 of them in a row now.
Wish I could follow this up with "just kidding"...

Re: Did not get House after completing "Room To Spare" quest
If you have a character you believe ought to be able to claim an inn room for free, go into Achievements on that character, go to the Housing category, select the Property category, and look for the Permanent Tenant achievement, which is described as "Obtain and enter any of the following inn rooms."
If it shows that you've earned that achievement, I don't think you'll be able to claim an inn room for free on that character, but I'm not 100% certain about that. The achievement was definitely impacted by the conversion to account-wide achievements, because when I hover the mouse over the achievement on my alt characters it says "Earned by:" my main character's name.
However, when I drop down the achievement to actually view the list of pertinent inn rooms on one of my alts (the one I just happen to be logged in on right this moment), there are three inn rooms which are grayed out, and I've definitely obtained all three of them (but not by this alt) and visited them with one character or another-- just probably not with this particular alt. So I've just ported into one of those three inn rooms, and now it's checked off on the list of inn rooms under the achievement.
So it looks like maybe the actual checklist of inn rooms which have been visited might still be character-specific even though the achievement itself is account-wide. So check that list on the character you think ought to be able to obtain a free inn room and see if any of those inn rooms have been checked off for that character, because I suspect that this might be why you're unable to claim a free inn room on that character.
Addendum: Okay, maybe I should have checked on a few more characters, because it looks like the list is not character-specific after all. All of my characters-- even my main-- are showing the same two inn rooms as being unvisited, and the third one which I just visited on an alt is now checked off for everyone. But I've definitely visited the interiors of the two "unvisited" inn rooms before, so I'm thinking that maybe the conversion to account-wide achievements affected the checklist somehow, such as clearing it entirely or maybe copying each character's checklist onto the achievement when the conversion occurred, if that makes sense. And now the checklist gets updated as any character visits inside one of the owned inn rooms. So maybe I've just never visited inside those three inn rooms following the conversion, until just visiting one of the three. That seems a little far-fetched, but I guess it's possible, since most of the time when I port to an owned property I'm porting to the outside rather than the inside.
In any case, I do think this particular achievement is the culprit here.

Re: Update 47 and Frost Damage Builds
True, it'd be better to have different Frost abilities instead of two more AoE DoTs.
A Frost Scythe could be fun, yeah. Sadly, Hungry Scythe is more of a tanking skill and its damage is abysmal at the moment (I believe Biting Jabs/ Puncturing Sweep deal 58% more DPS and cost around 22% less to boot). I do hope ZOS makes both morphs of Death Scythe better spammables some day.ESO_Nightingale wrote: »i do like tentacular dread though. the issue that arcanist skills have is they're incredibly immersion breaking for frost damage builds. the green runes might do frost damage but they don't at all look like frost.
This got me thinking - I don't see it happening, but it'd be cool if there was a skill style to make the green runes look like icicles. If that were the case, I'd probably like using the skill line for a frost build.
imagine a massive ice spike skin for tentacular dread
