When will scribed skills be saveable and swappable using the armoury system within Cyro?

@ZOS_Gilliam (@ZOS_Kevin) You mentioned on the Reddit AUA that the team was currently discussing these systems.

There are currently multiple frustrations with the scribing system mainly linked around being able to setup builds for multiple roles.

For example as a healer I might wish to take a shielding morph of "Ulfsild's Contingency' but as a dd I would prefer to take a damaging morph with different affixes.
Even when I save my builds with these different setups using the armoury (meaning that I have already spent the luminous ink to make them) they will not restore.

I wouldn't mind if you 'unlock' each affix/script with luminous ink once you have collected it to allow you to 'freely' swap them as a simple fix, or allowing players to 'store' a certain amount of scribed skill variants in a similar way to the armoury.

However that would still leave the issue that there is no way to swap these setup whilst in Cyrodiil and it is not possible to easily leave and rejoin the campaign due to the queues.

You might consider adding a portal to 'The Scholarium' from the alliance home base similar to Cheesemonger's Hollow however this would bring the issue that players often get 'locked in' to Cheesemonger's and other Delves within Cyrodiil due to the queue system no longer counting that player within the Cyrodiil population and 'filling their spot' meaning that they cannot get out until a spot reopens for them. Due to this it would be much preferred if a simple scribing station could be added instead.

I'm much more interested in @zos making it easier to self target warding and healing soul and potentially increasing their buff durations to the standard 20.

I think 120 degree frontal cone targeting would be juuuuust riiiiight

Please add Major Sav/Proph to more Scribing skills! Bar slots that do stuff are more fun than dead slots. It's only on 3 and they're all pretty niche, with Knife being the best, but expensive targeted DD skills are kinda rough to build for.

Agreed, it's beyond frustrating that the armory slots I paid for are now effectively worthless as I must leave cyrodiil and go to the scholarium to change the effects of my scribing skills anyways.

I thought scribing might be a way to get buffs for some of my downtrodden classes such as Necro.

Wrong.

You can only get them on a few worthless grimoires. Some of them only last 10 seconds.

Why should NB get free major prophecy, on BOTH bars, just for equipping what is arguably the most powerful skill in the game (cloak)? I have never heard a good explanation for this. Why is this the case (buff on both bars just for equipping) for only a couple classes?

They should make some of these scribing skills have the buffs we need just for equipping.

Finally, they should let you change the "morph" of a scribed skill for 2k gold (like normal spells) rather than make you use Ink to switch one of the scribed skills. I have killed thousands of mobs doing the stupid quests to get scribing skills and never looted an ink .

@ZOS_Kevin any update from the team on this would be great. (also the NoCP gear set update question that @ZOS_BrianWheeler responded to perhaps too).

Very weird that scribing have "archive" function out of the box but it has cost. Why do you even need archive then lol.

It would be nice if the devs would allow all classes to have one buff that is active on both bars when the skill is equipped on either bar. For instance the Templar biting jabs skill should give major sorcery / brutality on either power. IMO power of light should actually be the skill to give that buff given the skill name.

Also everything class should have access to these basic skills major buffs: resolve, sorcery / brutality, savagery / prophecy.

From there each class should have its own unique 1 major, 2 minor debuffs, an additional major buff but as a group buff and 2 minor buffs with one being a group one.

And no skill should offer a nameless buff….. warden, NB, Templar etc….these should not be allowed
