Update 6 first impressions

Casdha

My first impressions of Update 6,,,,,, I hate it.

Enchanting got completely nerfed and ruined, no more fancy potion glyphs for me, they only add time to duration of a potion and a Gold level 9 (Monumental VR 10 to14)is only 3.3 seconds, no more boosting effect with jewelery. The same level gold jewelry glyph for weapon damage is only about 48 points when my weapon does a little over 1k,,,, Not even worth mastering this skill.

Craglorn wilderness has been beefed up to where there is hardly anything i can survive solo. They increased the mob count per run in.

Guards can one shot you, I did not win any fight with a guard (I'm not talking about Craglorn here either) although Pickpocketing and breaking into houses is rather easy considering.

For the price of a soul gem you are instantly a good guy again. I can see this used in place of high bounties.

Regardless how I respec my VR12 toon I can't get to where I feel I'm half as strong as I use to be.

The new constellation thing takes 20 points to increase any one thing about 8%.

Last for now but not least

ZOS stole my Sweet Role,,,,,, yep no more sweet rolls in the game :P

Will play and report more later.

Not to rain on your first impression as every one is allowed their own opinion, I am happy you tried the new system. I just wanted to point out that they said guards are unkillable thats something they want to happen.

Yea that's my fault, I didn't have a half a day to read all of the notes lol . I only have about 3 hours a day, at most, to play during the week, last night was my first chance to try it.

That said, It does feel to me they should have refunded Attribute points as well, as it looks like the way they calculate their extended effects has changed (that number is used in other calculations) then again I could be wrong on that as well.

And they still Stole my Sweet Roll

sounds to me that they forgot to "upgrade" glyphs to the new mechanics/system. thats a big oversight.
