No Dragon blood love? Or did I miss that...

They're proving that they care nothing about DK and Templar with this patch. I'm about ready to table both of mine.

Wait, what?

I don't see a single nerf to DK abilities in that list, or am I doing it wrong?

Looks to me as though they're being buffed all around. What am I missing here?

The meteor thing. While NB's can still cloak out of one.

Extra HP is always good, but just replace amphibious with a passive regen bonus already, and you can have the 3% health buff back...thanks. Like 10% or 15% regen to each stat would be splendiferously spectaculorous. #ZOSstophatinglizards (btw, we saw the potion CP nerf...you felt guilty didn't you ZOS? that's why the 3% health buff...I see what you did there). No more consummable-related passive already...let's go!

Cinnamon_Spider · February 2016

Adjusted all abilities to only allow them to be reflected up to 1 time, previously up to 2 times.

@ZOS_GinaBruno I just noticed this. Why does this even need to be changed?

Sharakor · February 2016

So if I understand this correctly, a nightblade cannot go into stealth with cloak EVER as long as someone recasts the excessively cheap spell of magelight? Or does the negation of going into stealth have a cooldown?

BoloBoffin · February 2016

"Fixed an issue that would cause rain to stop displaying when you died."

It should START raining every time I die, Zenimax! I'm the Hero of Davon's Watch, for gosh sakes!

@ZOS_GinaBruno
Will the loyalty vanity pets be available to ESO+ members who haven't bought the dlc?

I understood it that way, once spotted 5 seconds to go back into stealth #meteormeta

I've seen that answer - yep! ESO Plus members get all loyalty pets.

James-Wayne · February 2016

@ZOS_GinaBruno I know its been said in the past due to the console crowd that we dont get skill resets anymore but due to the large amount of changes can we please get a free choice to reset skills? Or perhaps lower the cost of resets for a time on launch?

Rex-Umbra · February 2016

I was hoping this patch would have capturable PvE Cities and Imperial Districts.

JavaWho · February 2016

Definitely some fine updates, some slightly scary ones, but over all its time to jump onto the PTS and test this out. See you all on the server.

Shaggygaming · February 2016

I was hoping they would make some changes to IC

NBrookus · February 2016

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Inner Fire: The Radiate synergy from this ability and its morphs now requires the synergy user to target the enemy afflicted with Inner Fire to activate it. We also increased the damage from the Radiate synergy by 11%.

Inner Fire is typically used in dungeons with multiple targets that need taunting and multiple taunts up. (Vet pledge Crypt of Hearts for example.) How will group members know *which* taunt they are synergizing in order to target the correct enemy?

NTclaymore · February 2016

I think they made meteors unreflectable because they caused lag for some when reflected. Im not one of those. I LOVED popping scales just before impact and see it fly back in their face. Ohhh. Good times.
So. Yea. Please revert that. Meteor is a powerful Ult allready. It doesnt need a buff

potirondb16_ESO · February 2016

@dagonbeer the answer is from earlier into the patch note, where they said that sprinting and sneaking would no longer allow stamina regeneration but @Septimus_Magna believe that it will not affect drinks regeneration which is good

Btw @Septimus_Magna , did notice the nerf on cloak, but I do wonder if vigor could not get a purge option on it !

I haven't read the notes thoroughly yet, but I do think Templar win the award for the largest single class nerf in the patch notes.

From what I can see, Templars didn't get nerfed at all aside from BoL.

Aside from the change to path, Nightblades got nerfed all around (but not unreasonably.)

Then go buy lents because we also get our purifying ritual nerfed wich increased by 30% the healing we did with BoL. Along with Healing Ritual. Healing Ritual seems to have a buff on reduced cast time, but it also gets 25% reduced healing done and it's affected by the purifying ritual nerf aswel.

Can't understand how this happened. But ESO community will feel it, BoL was a core mechanic of the game wich helped deal with many hard encounters, we'll see what happens now. Healing just turned out to be extremely hard in boss fights wich require movement. Not impossible, but definetly hard. Even really hard.

Right now, Templar healer is probably worse healing class, think i'm wrong? See what happens if this goes life

Eas007 · February 2016

Loving most of the changes but as a temp I must say why limit our mobility even more? Forcing us to stay in our runes isn't exactly helping...

The magicka cost of Breath of Life is a bit too steep considering the nerf now... Could the cost be adjusted?

Say it. Now Sorcerer healer is better. Using points in bastion and "Ward ally" (Wich wards yourself and someone else) is better than BoL. They also have more magicka management passives.

thanks for nerfing templars again
we earned it

Meteor cannot be reflected????
Wow................

My bet:

They couldn't fix the bug with double reflected meteors missing the animations and weird delays between the ground efects and the actual impact.

So they didn´t like the tennis?

Are there API change notes ready for the Addons forum yet?

Yes, apologies for the delay! You can find them here: http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/245162/thieves-guild-api-patch-notes-change-log-pts#latest

oh my god, this update is going to be fan-freakin-tastic from what I've just read here.
it's a shame that heavy armor received no buff though
