only complaint is that the text is a little small and without having the icon next to the damage, its very hard to know what you used to cause that damage.

I will agree with this. Without a little icon giving information about what the number is about, I was just looking at floating numbers. It was not easy to attribute action with result, and as such, I am dubious about the ultimate utility of this.

Also, if we had a setting option to change the colors, we could find out what the colors actually mean without having to guess at the purpose.

For those interested.

Orange = DoTs

White = Normal

Gold = Crit (Non-DoT)

Green = Heal

That's what I figured out so far.

Only saw a DK trying it but are we sure orange isn't just a fire damage DoT with other elements having a different colour?

Unless I am missing it some where, I was hoping for more of a combat log, I like to be able to scroll back and see who hit me with what, I would prefer to do this with something official and not a third party addon.

Seeing the damage number are ok I guess but really does nothing over all. The numbers are easy to read and do flow across the screen ok, it seems to work fine for me.

They are not creating a combat log....I know a lot of ppl assumed that is what they were getting but SCT is very different from a combat log.

The two together may offer what some want but I've not seen any discussions around adding any logs.

Did they also add DPS charts/summaries? There's an add-on on PC that shows your actual damage per second after a boss fight and it also shows what percentage of that damage was inflicted by what skill..

Was this added too, or will we only see the hit points for individual skills and no summary?

No summary, just real-time damage and healing numbers appearing on screen.

This is a feature I did not need or what, but tried it out anyway. I guess if I were to use it, I'd prefer to customize my colors , font size, and placement , and/or an option to add a symbol rather than a color to indicate heal, damage etc. I would rather have the txt out of the way of combat, and to the side or up top. I don't feel I got any vital info from it that I couldn't intuit from the animation cues, but I can see turning it on once in a while to see how different abilities compare damage-wise on a tough boss for instance, or to see that I'm interpreting the animation cues correctly.

I'm a bit underwhelmed really. A combat log might have been useful, but just seeing a load of numbers on the screen when I am trying to concentrate on the fight and therefore cannot really stop to look at them is not really much use tbh.

Way better than nothing for us console users - only thing I'd ask for (which has already been mentioned) is a recap function.

Perhaps hit LT+RT+LB+RB to start a parse, same thing to end one, resulting in a display of damage and abilities that caused them. Oh and an option to save it to view later.

Dare to dream - really happy to see damage text on console though!

Can anyone take some screenshots oder videos of SCT? im on ps4 and there is no PTS to check this stuff out. Thanks

Just used it for a bit.

Good things:
-not invasive at all, I like to see info but not have it obscure combat
-the way it's placed above the enemy is nice
-easy to tell when crits happen

Things to work on:
-for scrolling text, it sure doesn't scroll very much. Would be cool to have an actual scrolling text option instead of just pop-up info as it happens
-I would like to see an option to output the info to chat as a combat log. Either in the default chat channel or have that option create it's own tab.
-the text goes away very very fast, making it difficult to catch the info in realtime

Another short video in roughly the same place with the Gampad UI enabled to get an idea of what it would look like on console.

Can you link me to that add on?
I'm a console player but am going to go on the PTS and need to feel as at home as possible while I play. That would really help.

I like it a lot better than the "scrolling" style text of the add-ons.

That said, I would like to see this kind of feedback expanded to include an actual combat log ( for review after the fight), damage meter and buff/defuff tracking.

Is it different with the gamepad mode off?
So far i've played only with the gamepad and i found it really good, now the question is : douring big trash pull or even boss fights with AC weaving (i'm a DK) the general performance will drop down?
I was used to Combat Cloud and i found that this version is similar.

the only difference I see is that maybe the font size may be a little diffrent for the SCT. To me it looks slightly different but I cant quite put my finger on it. It may just be in my head

This is the official feedback thread for SCT. Specific feedback that the team is looking for includes:

• Did you turn SCT on and use it during combat?
• Do you have any feedback on the visual style or accuracy of the tool?
• Do you have any other general feedback?

1. Yes
2. SCT seems better than the ones of addons, I liked especially the position of it for both character and targets.
   It's immediate and pleasant but it lacks the accuracy of what addons provide.
   Numbers infact are scrolling but, thinking to console players especially, it is not user's friendly to understand which skill does damage, heals, etc. A players can just presume which is the source of damage/heal: for some skills it's easily understandable, while for DoT and HoT it's rather vague.
   I don't really like the font used for characters (numbers and letters): it seems extraneous to TES in general but especially texts like "Stun".
   These texts could have a different visual clue or a rettangle (or another shape) around.
3. Since the font is something that can be liked or not according to personal preferences, an option with more fonts can be a solution, so the player can select the fonts he/she prefers amongst these.

It seems good that we finally have some numbers on console.. Though the only thing I'd like to add is a combat summary or a battle log - something which shows what skill did how much damage in the previous fight. And also, possibly our overall DPS (an actual number)..

This would be really helpful for PvE (Dungeons and Trials)
