ESO's server issues are better than all the MMOs I've played in my life, and I've played at least 10 or more. Still it doesn't change the fact that the down time sucks, I really wanted to play ):
Really? I've probably had just as bad issues with WoW, but in Guild Wars 2 i barely had server issues AND they do maintenance without taking the servers offline!

Re: Subclassing Quest Bugged?
As @girlpoison claims, that is indeed the fix here, however it's a tad less obvious on Console,
You have to pay attention to the button action prompts at the bottom of the screen. 'A' will switch between "Equip" and "Subclass" depending on the Skill Line. Only the ones that say Subclass will progress the Quest, but then as far as I can tell once you make the choice, the Subclassed selection is locked in. I have no desire to Subclass Warden on my Sorcerer, I just needed the Quest completed and I chose the first one I found that worked.

Re: What changed with June 25 maintenance that cause worse performance?
For anyone experiencing issues with huge FPS losses in PVE and PVP, this is what fixed it for me.
My particular issue was with CPU use.
You can confirm if you are having the same issue by opening the task manager (<Ctrl><Alt><Delete> Task Manager) then clicking on the header for the CPU column so that the highest usage app is at the top, then run eso.
My particular issue resulted in ESO running at 95%+ CPU usage which resulted in frame rate drops causing FPS in game of single figures.
The fix for this is to edit the UserSettings.txt file located in \Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live, double clicking this should open it in notepad.
Run a search (<CTRL>F) for "CORE" this should highlight the line
SET MaxCoresToUse.4 "-1"
The "-1" value represents 'automatically set the number of cores', which in my case buggered fps up.
Change the "-1" to "4" to force ESO to use that number of cores, i chose 4 as its two thirds the number of cores for my processor.
Save the file, close notepad, then launch the game as normal.
This was an instant fix for me running an I7 8700K.
It looks like they may have addressed some of this with today’s PTS patch. It specifies fixes for CPUs up to 6 cores.

Anyone remember this?

Re: It's time to reshuffle the other three base game classes

Unlike the popular opinion that skill lines should be strictly separated, one line for one role, certainly a much easier way, but hardly a good one. Of course, some kind of separation should exist as it always has, like generally each base class line is a mix of two roles.
This would reduce the potential power of subclassing as each line wouldn’t be focused solely on a single role which would lower the ceiling of minmaxed specialization. And at the same time would present more creative opportunities as you would mix lines dedicated to several roles at the same time instead of only stacking damage lines for instance.
This would've been the more ideal way, but given that NB and all 3 DLC classes are fully segmented and DK is pretty much there as well, we can't really roll back to that design.
I don't see why not
I mean afaik they've moved 1 skill between lines in the existence of the game and that's just because of NB bias from combat team. There's 0 chance they're reworking every class to be a disaster like Sorc is.
Re: Extreme FPS drops
Freshly plucked from today's PTS patch notes. I don't know if there's a connection but it looks like they are looking into multiple reports on performance issues.
