    What recent hot topics can we expect?

    Hot topic: can we expect removal of unresistable gap-closers' snare in Morrowind?
    P.S.: Show us at least one rewarding battleground set?

    Will this involve Rich and Brian fighting one another? Because if it does I made an advertisement poster for it.

    I hoping they go I to some details about battlegrounds I have 2 concerns
    1. will there be some balence between premade groups and solo players I really hope they don't let premade groups and solo players queue up together
    2. I hope that they limit the number of certain classes because every game will end up being 4v4v4 blazing shields Templars that can't be killed just sitting on the flag or objectives or 4v4v4 mag Nightblades with destro ults just chessing it in team deathmatch

    hopefully battlegrounds follow the 1 tank, 1 healer 2 dps set up pve group finder has and this is the most important part that will make or break battlegrounds absolutely no duplicate classes everyone in the group must be a different class so what I mentioned above doesn't happen.

    Im pretty sure ZOS will screw up battlegrounds so I really don't care for it.

    In regards to 1, Zenimax has already said previously on either the forums or an eso live (or both) that the queue will take into account premade groups and try to match them up against each other.
    May the moons watch over you all.

    I seem to recall they specifically said this will NOT happen. What good would it do anyway? People already cheat the system by claiming to be a role they're not.

    Aye let's have some details about the cp changes and how these changes will affect game play. And are their any plans to make two handed weapons count as two set pieces?

    Echoing the CP changes information. The Khajiit's out the bag so let's catch it and clean it up before things get messy.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Be sure to get Rich and Brian to talk about nearly unkillable tank builds and their impact on Battlegrounds. That seems to be the biggest concern that I hear from anyone.

    I, like everyone else, is SO hyped for "Morrowind" and look forward to revisiting my first TES experience, but......
    Can we get some news or insights on things such as:

    Housing editor improvements? Making books work on shelves, disappearing items, etc?
    Are "Guild Halls" on the future horizon? ( Pretty Please with Moon Sugar on top?)
    Increasing item caps to housing? Is storage even on the table?
    Results of "Cyrodiil No-CP Lag Test Week"?
    Videos and such from PaxEast?
    Why is the "Jester's Festival" not during the traditional date, i.e. 28th Rain's Hand( 28th April)?
    And of course, last but not least, return of "Lore Segments" and Loremaster Lawrence Shicks return?

    But all in all, So happy ESO Live is back and Thank You for a awesome job!!
    Huzzah!!

    Your assumption is correct. :)

    Not today. We're going to be focusing on Battlegrounds for this show, but we'll be featuring the Warden for the next show in 2 weeks.
