Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Thieves Guild Questline
Didn't start the quest yet but travelled around in the refreshed Glenumbra.
There isn't a thread for that so I will post it here.
The refresh is very subtle, but I love this. The water, the lighting, swamps and vegetation is much improved in places. Also beaches seem to have more clutter and look more modern. I also like that you took the feedback about the rock textures from the reworked starter zones and resculpted and retextured them now in Glenumbra. I hope the revamped starter zones get this treatment as well
I do hope we don't have to wait for 22 seasons if we only get 1 refresh per season. That's very slow
Some examples for people who don't have the PTS installed. (Crap phone quality, but it's about the contents, not the image quality)

Re: Class Masteries, Sorcerer perspective
Lets chill on the discussion about how good sorcerer is for a moment. I play a Magicka Sorcerer in Cyrodiil as well and did through whole Subclass patches. They dont have much better mobility than medium armor subclass builds with high sustain that slot Streak. They definitely dont have better damage. And the difference is i would say at least around 20 - 30%. They definitely dont have better sustain. And they most definitely dont have any kind of survivability. To understand if a class or build is doing good in PvP all you have to do is go in Cyrodiil and count the amount of players that use it. I have seen maybe less than 5 pure magicka sorcerers after Subclassing hit. And yes PvP builds will only use Font of Power and Conservation of Energy. With the proposed changes sorcerers will be quite strong but they still wont be any stronger than subclass builds.
Re: Class Masteries, Sorcerer perspective
I think it's too early to be optimistic about Sorc's class masteries. Firstly, Sorc still lacks penetration and critical damage, and is currently the only class without passive abilities providing these stats. This means that in organized PvE, Sorc players need to find their own solutions to the insufficient penetration and critical damage, relying primarily on specific sets and critical damage synergies. Furthermore, Sorc's skills still lack effective area-of-effect damage, and many skills haven't had their range adjusted to 7 meters, further reducing the versatility of Sorc builds.
In PvP, while Sorc is a good pure class, it struggles to compete with subclass builds, and curses can be cleansed, especially given the current prevalence of Betty Netch. Dragonknight's Wildfire Embers have a great design concept; they can still deal damage even when cleansed. This is almost exactly the same as what I suggested in this post (https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/8445124#Comment_8445124). I just regret that the developers decided to give this feature to Dragonknight instead of Sorc.

Re: Sorc pet hate has to stop
I don't want pets and welcome any changes that strengthen the no-pet Sorc.
However, I don't want the pet gameplay and unique features to be removed from ESO, as summoning has always been part of the TES universe.
The current balance between pets and no-pets is too crude and could potentially incite conflict between pet/no-pet players.
I think perhaps a class mastery specifically designed to buff pets should be chosen for Sorc. I think Sphere of Influence would be the most suitable choice, as Sorc currently lacks any ability to provide shields to teammates.
Perhaps Sphere of Influence should be changed to: When you use a permanent pet's active ability, increase the damage of all your summoned creatures by 20%, with an additional 10% increase for each additional permanent pet. It also grants you and nearby teammates a shield that absorbs 30% of the target's maximum health.

Re: A social issue people are reluctant to bring up
I am about 99.9% sure that the toxicity OP is talking about has nothing to do with dps measuring addons and everything to do with people rightfully getting banned after making openly racist/bigoted remarks up to and including open death threats.
These things aren't common, but they do happen, people get reported, banned, and sometimes they vanish forever and sometimes show up with a new name on an account they purchased and start gloating about their nonsense.

A social issue people are reluctant to bring up
Most of us do our best to tolerate and understand toxic players and because of that we're really reluctant to 'out' people or report them -we know this game is an escape outlet for people and they need it. However, there are some communities where it is horrible to be due to perma banned players coming back on known new accounts and Zos turning a blind eye. And we're talking about seriously awful things behind those bans.
What this is resulting in is the victims of these people giving up on ESO and giving up on their friend communities.
I'd like to ask that Zos consider move to blocking the player, not the account. It's been asked before by many people but perhaps under new leadership, it's time to raise it again.

Re: The critter massacre in the challenge zones
I couldn't disagree more. They didn't go far enough. Only critter kills should count towards the 1000.
[Housing Request] more Desk furnishings please.
Greetings.
There are many desk furnishings, but recent Furnishing Styles never got desks. Whilst they do have desk assets we can find in zones.
Those Furnishing Styles being:
High isle, rough and ornate.
Necrom.
Colovian, rustic and noble.
Dawnwood.
here are screenshots of the desks and their locations:
High isle
Gonfalon Bay in High isle.
Rough desk found in Furnishings of Finesse, the furniture store.
Ornate desk found in Cautious Coffer, the bank.
Necrom
Necrom in Telvanni Peninsula.
found in Final Rest Furnisings, the furniture store.
Colovian, rustic and noble
West Weald.
Rustic and Noble desks found in Rustwall Estate’s Barracks building.
Dawnwood
found in Vashabar in West Weald.
this could be a Clothing Station, if not a desk.
i first had those Dawnwood pictures in this old post:

Re: 2026 Anniversary Event
For me the event was fine. If the drops were better then people would complain about killing the market.
Only thing that I dislike is the way those new fragments drop. If you get them (and its RNG) then you re fine, but If you don't you feel unlucky and have some disadvantage to other players (you can buy the fragment on next event, but you are still 1k trade bars behind due to this, and there is a lot of cool stuff to spend them on now). I don't believe it is a good/healthy design.
My solution - don't limit the fragment drop to golden boxes.
