Zerith-var perk, Ja'kh's Bell of Bounty

allochthons · November 15

I'm leveling Zerith as fast as possible for this perk. But having said that, a toggle would be great.

Toggles for many, many of the effects is something the devs should have done ages ago. It's an accessibility^ thing, not just a performance thing.

^Accessibility as in the Disabilities Act, not as in Let New Players into Hard Content.

@NeoniKa I think the easiest way to not get this perk, but have Zerith leveled, is to never give to a begger, and thus never get the "Zerith-Var's Favor" achievement. The begger activity is the only hard one, since it's RNG.
(Well, and the ToT daily, if one is not good at ToT or doesn't have high isle)

Can you (or someone else) post a screenshot of this? I think many players just might haven't seen it yet.

From the screenshots, I don't like the colour of Tanlorin's perk, maybe would be different if the colour was something else (like pink? Idk).
Zerith-Var's perk is my favourite to date! Hint: Luminous Ink drops from Heavy sacks too now, you know, so...

Anyway, always in favor of more toggles for those who need. Just please don't remove/reduce Heavy sacks glow for everyone all together...

I find the color a little jarring. Neon green, especially combined with blue, isn't the choice I would have made.

If it was up to me, displaying the extra time and the perk name in the UI wouldn't be neccessary at all. There's no note about Embers's or Azandars's perk when pickpocketing or looting a container, after all, but it's just active in the background, and that's sufficient. Of course it's a matter of personal taste, but I personally prefer to have as little text clutter as neccessary on screen.

I'm all for toggles.

Thanks for the suggestion but I really prefer to completely abandon this companion. It's too risky. I'm pretty sure I'll end up forgetting and I really don't want that perk activated forever. Also, I play a lot of ToT.

That particular green and the particular style of the icon also makes me feel like I'm playing Fallout rather than ESO.

I'm for toggles too. Myself, I like the perk and couldn't wait to get the achievement so all of my chars would have it, but I would like to toggle off Bastian's perk, so I understand how nice it would be to have the option. And I bet HarvestMap with HarvestPins must drive some people crazy! To be honest, I only enable it when I'm in a harvesting mood....

HarvestMap kindly has toggles so you can focus on the specific nodes you’re looking for. So much nicer than having it be all or nothing.

If the game forced everyone to play with those HarvestPins things, it wouldn't be a problem for me, because I wouldn't have even started playing or I would have already given up. So yes, it better be optional.
