Re: halve incoming damage by half??
See camera's answer below. That's basically what I had typed.
Also you should not use Deep Fissure on a bash build. You have no wd/sd. Try Reverb + Shield Throw instead.

Re: halve incoming damage by half??
You are probably barking up the wrong tree, are you sure its not just a combination of what you are doing? With random duel logs we cannot tell what happened.
There are abusive ways to use the psijic 30% mit passive all the time, pair that up with other % mit sources and youll hit 50% easily. The build would be useless though.

Re: More on the Microsoft lay offs, it's grim.
Why pay 100 people for ten years to develop a new IP when AI can do it in a year? Or six months? For a fraction of a fraction of the cost? The future of gaming is AI and what we're seeing here is the beginning of that. Heck, the future is AI period.
I don't think AI is at the point where it can replace an entire team. For example, the writing. If you want deep stories that resonate with people, forget AI. I've been using Duolingo as part of my "learn French" project, and it uses a lot of AI. At first, it was fine - it was just the voices and short lessons. But recently it's become clear that they're also using AI to write story units. My god, those units used to be funny and engaging. Now they read like a textbook and they're boring. Turned my favourite type of lesson into the worst type.
I shudder to think what a game produced mainly by AI will be like. Not just the flat, boring stories, but the entire experience. Glad I've got a large gaming library already with lots of favourites to play so I won't have to worry about all the AI dreck.
I'm all for AI when it makes sense (though due to the horrible environmental impacts, I could do without it, too). It does not make sense in creative areas like gaming except to aid with coding.
I wonder who will be buying all the stuff AI is producing when most people don't have jobs because AI replaced them?
Anyway, I don't like to be doom and gloom about the future of ESO because we're talking about real people at ZOS. I think the plans for 2026 will be an indication of whether the game will continue to get meaningful updates.
I completely agree with you, nothing can replace human creativity and imagination, human dedication to the lore, pride in their creation and dreams for the future. But apparently Microsoft thinks otherwise. I'm all for AI too (environmental impact notwithstanding) and hope the upheaval it causes will be worth it in the long run.
Re: More on the Microsoft lay offs, it's grim.
I am just wondering what the strategy is; maybe its just a move more towards ai and ai tools... but msoft seems to want to move more towards services and as such ESO as one of their most successful gaming ip's and cash cows seems to fit that bill very well and warrant rather more resources especially after the cancelation of the alternative project...
so not exactly sure what the idea is...mabe they think its at the end of its life cycle, the market is moving or its not a great game pass seller...
I can only speak for myself but I think ESO has an extremely dedicated, loyal and especially medium aged (= financially potent) player base and imo still enough stories and horse power to go another 10 years... you just need to overhaul some systems, make some tweaks, to attract more newer player (or gobble up players from other dying mmo's)...
Because honestly more and more mmo's - traditional ones - are dying and new projects are basically canceled or are not successful, so the remaining established ones i would assume will because of that see player influx from these games over the next years no?

Re: Hard Group Checks in U47 Dungeons
Sitting in voice chat with a bunch of dudes from my vet trials team while farming dragons last night. A very group play oriented bunch. The topic turned to this dungeon, and I was surprised a little that we all shared the same opinion. If you don't want people to solo it, make the dungeon have hard, decent mechanics that require group play and the trinity. Don't just gate it with a pressure pad. That's lame.

What a cutie! And the same laser focus Ember has with her eyes, too!
Re: Your Play Experience b/t Update 45 and Update 46 with Subclassing and Scribing In Base Game
You need to make core classes competitive with subclasses. Period. End of discussion. Idk make subclassers accept debuffs in exchange for the damage increase and other flexibility or just buff those who decide to keep core class skills, maybe you get a bonus for having 2 and then another bump for all 3? Something has to be done and nerfing the core classes because of your half baked ideas is NOT the solution.
