Best Of
So that's it? This is what's going live?
Was there cultural holiday in US? Are you doing anymore development on this game or was everyone let go? Is this just all the content that was already created last year and you're just in push mode? Has the new boss put everyone on ultra extra radio silence?
Re: The 10% max stam/mag proc condition on Blood Magic passive is a joke and needs to be removed
We tried, but zos only sees one thing from the pts forums each cycle. Unfortunately the bloodmagic passive thread wasn't as popular. Not everything needs to be a proc effect. I don't know how many rounds of vengeance they are going to need to understand this before they preemptively start reducing the unnecessary calcs on the server.
The ONLY reason for max stat bonus is to work with shield builds (or that extra 0.1% more damage in pve) Last I checked, and I check a lot, dark magic still doesn't have ward on it. Honestly DAEDRIC mines should be swapped with Ward. Ward makes more sense to pair with the frags traditional magsorc playstyle. Mines makes more sense pairing with the zone of control pets playstyle to give yourself a peel mechanic.
I'd also put curse on dark magic and make encase work more towards pets. Like the root on enemies does a pet damage debuff. Then the heal version does a pet heal and buff.

Re: Maintenance going late?
This is a bit annoying, especially not knowing when it will be finished.I have a trial in half an hour in my guild and would like to know if we just delay it a little bit or have to fully reschedule it.

Re: Amnesty for the players!
Sounds to me like the real issue here is that players who have been banned repeatedly can endlessly keep making new accounts.

In the real world the punishment should fit the crime.
If you show your middle finger to someone, no matter how annoying that is, you should not lose your property and your money.
Teabagging is pretty much the same in the virtual world.
You're not an owner of anything here, it's a licensing. Virtually you're renting an apartment, flipping someone off the balcony and owner decides to revoke your access based on your actions no matter how much you've spent or willing to spend, that's their right and it's there in user agreement. If it's repeated offense you're loosing it all, seems absolutely fair if someone can't learn the expected behaviour and proceeds violations.

Well, sure maybe if we leap forward to quantum computing it could handle the shear volume of calculations. The game is just too bloated after 15-20 years of the code being worked on by different employees. It probably doesn't help that zos keeps adding in bloat and putting new layers ontop of new layers every other patch.
Having no control or not putting their foot down when it comes to power creep is only going to make things worse. We already have skills and set bonuses that are multiple paragraphs long. At what point will we have short novels for tooltips? We already have to look and compare multiple out of game Wiki's to understand status effects and offbalance.
The stat and combat system is just not clear and concise to any degree.
Patently false.
The only time in the history of Cyrodiil that we had near flawless performance for months, with a pop cap of 200-300 players/faction at the time, was the three months after they replaced the server hardware.

Raising the floor and offering new ability options won’t improve anything if the abilities don’t work when we press the buttons.
Nothing else matters if performance is in the tank. That's why I'll never understand the insistence of so many players to focus on cosmetics and lore. The first priority has to be play'ability.
Re: Amnesty for the players!
If rules don’t matter, why have them at all.
What you are saying is that the best way to keep players, is by rewarding the ones who drove others away. Genius.
Maybe next time we can hand out crowns to cheaters too?

Re: Dark cloak is useless now.
Yeah, they did this skill SO DIRTY with the random nerf.
Talk about a change that was not needed and that nobody asked for and that somehow made a Z-Tier skill line even worse.

Re: Solo play is Almost Impossible Anymore
Nonsense. Level 2600 PVP Main here. I have played solo in all phases of the game since I started. I disable all communications and decline any party invite. I'm fine alone and love every second of it.
