Eso needs bound weapons

Hamztein

If i want to be an effective archer with magicka build, i cant... Eso needs bound weapons. Elder scrolls are about freedom, right?

Bows use stamina...funnily enough...

And there is plenty of BoP wpns and armour.

E.G Masters bow on VDSA, and others...

ESO about freedom?

You are joking right....?:P

Magical builds were viable back in the harry potter light armour wearing super warriors, not now.

You have to choose between, hybrid builds don`t work now and new meta is stamina.

Have fun however:}

By "Bound Weapons" he is referring to Skyrim and the Conjuration magic that summoned weapons. You could summon a bow that was as strong as a daedric bow early on in the game and not even worry about arrows. It was ridiculously strong.

While I agree with OP that it would be nice to have actual "freedom" in this game, to do that they need to get rid of the class system, weapon system, and the way skills work and completely overhaul the game. This is not going to happen ever. Moreover the console launch is their last big hope out of the downward spiral the PC version is still plummeting in.

Wish in one hand, turd in the other.

they would also have to forgo it EVER being a succesful game if they wanted a full, open, skill system. It has enough balance problems already.

Having a full, open skill system = CAN'T be balanced, Simple fact is, everyone would just use the best skills at endgame, and there is no possible way to make every skill workable for every possible role, or for that matter, anything similar to it at all.

MMO = NEEDS at least some balance to be successful or no one plays, ESPECIALLY for a game that has tried to put so much emphasis on PVP

That is probably the greatest falsehood ever told in regards to class vs no class based gaming.
Not one single MMO in the history of MMORPGs has achieved balance with a class based system. World of Warcraft, the most successful MMO of all time in 11 years has yet to achieve to balance. Asherons Call, EQ, EQ2, DAoC, Age of Conan, etc ad nauseum, not one, none, have done it.

Yet saying a classless system would not be balanced is just untrue. Take a look at Ultima Online. During it's "golden years" it never had an issue with imbalance and people had the freedom and use said freedom to create templates they were comfortable with. The same can be said of Shadowbane and Darkfall. So no, this rhetoric about balance is 100% false and tiresome. All you are doing is parroting and perpetuating the same lie that's been told for years.

Lastly, it's safe to say ESO already did forgo being a successful game so this argument is moot. This game is on life support, console being their last shot at redemption. Most pc players are long gone and not coming back, hell even some of those that came back at 1.6 already left again never to return. This thread is not about a classless system so please cease from trying to pick apart my response(s).

Agree with xael... More freedom, more effective options, and more fun... I would like to be a millionaire and create a game with all i have learned in the past 20 years of gaming.

I am a son of blizzard/bethesda/bioware games, but even there thers a lot to improve.

This is super stretching it, but I think nightblade summons daggers for some of their attacks and aedric spear summons... well... a spear.
