you lose all ur tel var stones if ur killed by someone? wth? why would they even think to put that in game . that is beyond annoying .

Because it is a fun way to create more PVP combat in a PVP zone, while also creating incentive, and risk/reward.

@ZOS_GinaBruno is there a post anywhere with the changes made with the EU PTS update today? There was supposed to be a lot more fixes and tweaks right?

Any possibility of a free skill point respec for WW/Vamps who want to get cured considering the major change to their skill lines?

It looks like they will be refunding all skill points because of all the changes. At least that was my finding when I went to test on PTS. I have no interest in the way they have set up pvp so am not currently testing.

Someone else posted this already, but it worked for me so I could travel without getting booted.

1. Log in like you would normally do, with the character select and everything.
2. Join your pvp campaign.
3. Use wayshrine in the pvp area, not the map but the actual wayshrine.
4. Travel to where you want to go.

I've been able to travel since I've done the above, Without having to go back to pvp. I haven't had any issues since ivendone this for the past two hours (fingers crossed).

Would have liked to see that they added text chat to the console versions but guess Ill need to see if they add it in those patch notes if they have a different set for consoles.

Well, so be it

It's been said "middle of the week", apparently (PTS doesn't follow the same schedule as live). Possibly tomorrow.

It's nice to know that ZOS is once again taking away my speed (this time with the bow passive hasty retreat). And it will suck that NB's can no longer use Spectre's Eye with their skill Double take to get a 40% dodge chance ...... iverall it seems to be a great patch. GJ guys!

Previous:
HASTY RETREAT II
WITH BOW EQUIPPED
Increases your Movement Speed by 30% for 2 seconds after you execute a dodge roll.

New change:
Hasty Retreat (passive): This passive now grants the Major Expedition buff for 1 second/2 seconds instead of a 30% movement speed bonus.

Major Expedition - Increases Movement Speed (40%)

Sounds like a buff to me...Did I miss something else?

And that's what they've intended from the beginning. You *had* to have known this was coming...

A Quakecon video I watched very briefly mentioned prismatic enchantments where they boost all stats (health, stamina, magicka) but I can not find a mention of them in the notes. Can anyone confirm they will actually be added?

I heard they were supposed to help with new builds.

There is already topic about them in PTS forum section. They do exist on PTS.

Psst hi.. uhm, can we please have the proper visuals on Berserker WW now? You know.. black, red eyes, kinda like the picture describes and it in no way looks like at the moment? Thanks

I hope they will update the Patch Notes here to indicate any changes they've made or decided against. I'm still trying to figure out if they are going ahead with the planned racial passive changes to Altmer and Bosmer or if they'd decided against them as I've read other comments stating that they have.

They're unlikely to change these patch notes, as 2.1.0 will always be what it is now, but anything that has been changed will be mentioned in future PTS patch notes, and the release of 2.1 to Live will have its own patch notes anyway which you could compare to these.

I wasn't sure how they handle PTS patch notes when changes occur... so this means there should be NEW patch notes today with the v2.1.1 being implemented?

I guess my original post was meant to question whether or not anyone knows for sure what is going on with Altmer/Bosmer racial passives and if ZOS will address this in their newest patch notes or leave it to the final 'surprise' Live update notes. DCUO was notorious for that... they would go through the entire PTS process, and then when things went Live, you'd discover they had made changes that they never mentioned during PTS testing... and usually these 'surprise' changes weren't received very well.

Yeah there will be 2.1.1 PTS Patch Notes some time during the maintenance. I guess the Altmer/Bosmer thing will be based on whether they reverted the change in time for the 2.1.1 build or not. There will be a few things that only end up going straight to Live, but hopefully not many.

it is pretty rad... but doesn't this make defensive rune kinda pointless compared to the other morph? Defensive was good because you could cast it before hand then not worry about the cast time in combat. Now there is not cast time, I don't see a reason for defensive rune

You don't have to target it, and you can cast it and rude around on your horse and to give a nasty surprise to anyone who wants to sneak attack you!

You folks were looking for pts-patch-notes-v2-1-1, right? 7 pages already... (including several updates that were omitted from the original 2.1.1 patch notes).

@ZOS_GinaBruno

"The cost of each roll dodge will increase by 33% after your first roll dodge."
Okay so can you please clarify how long this will continue to stack for? Is There a 4 second time period you must wait to reset this?
