On an average, If I am loged on for a couple hours, I will get booted 3-5 times. Do you ever plan to address?

Half the quests you and your partner share drops/pickups/kills/etc.
The other half? You each have to pick up/kill/collect individually. It's nuts. We keep having to go back to finish a quest, because one of us didn't actually do the "picking up" when our partner did. Can you please make them consistent??

Lack of respect for the customer base is the biggest pain point for me by far. Second is vengeance and the apparent deception surrounding it's development and future.

Ricochet Skull is bugged in PVP. It stops counting towards the third skull which has a 50% increased damage and hits 2 other targets. You'd have to die or relog to get it to work again but it'll break every few minutes anyway.

I've found this been reported here for over 5 years but never seen a response from Zenimax. Is there'any hope this will be fixed?

I think this is my 3rd complaint:
Why do you have all these commemorative achievements that you can't even brag about?
I just spent a lot (a lot) of time (and dying, in IC) getting the Commemorative Angler achievement, without realizing that there's no reward but a warm, wet spot on my pants.
The Master Angler achievement (a pre-requisite for the Commemorative Angler) has a title, but doing something way more advanced has none?!
Can't your people even dream up titles/skins/dyes/anything for these achievements?

When the game doesn't show you where you need to be for a quest or other objective, but instead shows you the path (gate/wayshrine/boat/other) that Zenimax thinks you should take to get there.

There was a time when quests would show the final destination, even if the user's current location was inside a sub-zone. Getting there via role playing means was troublesome for some players, I guess. Apparently, not many players utilized the caravans and boats. In an effort to make things RP friendly, they changed how the markers are shown. I would have preferred that the markers would show where to go based on the map level and not just the character's current location.

So... It would be nice if when inside a gated city, and the player looks at the map, the marker points to the city gate, but if the player goes to the map zone level, the marker points to the dungeon, delve, boss location, etc..., or travel method (overland for a connected zone, caravan / boat for a distant zone). If the player goes to the Tamriel level, have a marker point to the final zone where the destination is located.

It is difficult trying to remember where a given delve or boss location is for specific daily quests. Which is why, when possible I would do the dolmen, harrowstorm, dragon, etc quests first so that I can see the actual locations of the other quests instead of just the city gate.

Pain Points:

1. NB Siphoning Line lacks flavour. The skill line doesn’t feel like it is actually healing through leeching. Malevolent Offering should have one of its morphs deal damage like it used to, but heal for a portion of the damage dealt. Cripple morphs are also a bit dated. Debilitate is fine as is in my opinion, but Crippling Grasp feels clunky. Perhaps turning it into a Disease Morph with some kind of apply Disease Status every second tick or something would help Disease Builds out a bit and give this morph much needed PvE utility.

2. Disease Builds are lacking due to no weapon skill line providing Disease options. Scribing and Subclassing has opened it up, but no Disease weapon makes it lacklustre. Perhaps a new “Corruption Staff” would work that has Disease and Bleed morphs with its light and heavy attacks dealing split Bleed and Disease Damage. Staff models already exist in game for style which removes any style modelling commitment for a new unique weapon category. It also allows for a Stamina based caster giving Stamina build another ranged option instead of forcing them into a Bow build. This would allow Necromancers use Venom Skull without it feeling weird when paired with a Bow.

3. Speaking of Necromancers. I would suggest focusing on Disease and Bleed primarily for skills on the Stamina side and ditch Physical and Poison. Plague Skull and Bleed Archer would work. It would give Stamina Necromancers a much better defined flavour without stepping on the toes of the Magicka “elemental” feel. On the Magicka side of things, it is hard to build pure Fire, Shock or Frost Necromancers. I don’t think much needs to change to make it easier. Maybe make Glacial Colossus a Shock Skill instead (Thundering Colossus), and make Bone Totem a ranged skill by default freeing up a morph to pulse for Frost or Fire Damage every 2 seconds. The mixed feel is good, but the option and freedom to focus on one specific element increases creative flexibility. Adding a damage component to Bone Totem is good, because Necromancers need a little extra in the current meta anyway.

4. Scribing Seems to have stopped. We haven’t had anything with this system in ages. I think a ground DoT or Mist base, an Aura based DoT base, a Pet base (some kind of elemental sprite for modelling ease) and finally an Ultimate. The point is that Scribing seems to have been abandoned and seems half finished. A few more core skills to allow players to double down on certain playstyles would go a long way in breathing some much needed life into the game.

5. Warden skills require some adjustments. Frozen Gate and its morphs are so niche, that you almost never see them. I think combining the two morphs into one and then having a more active alternative would help the base skill see more use and open up another option. Permafrost is still a problem. On the one hand it is virtually useless in PvE and oppressive in PvP. Maybe a risky option could be tried in a patch. Perhaps remove the snare, Major Protection and guaranteed applications completely. Instead, turn it into a passive morph that automatically triggers on Chilling an enemy without consuming any Ultimate regardless of which bar is active. Example:

“You can no longer activate this skill. Instead, summon a swirling sleet storm that deals X Frost Damage every second for 4 seconds whenever you Chill an enemy. This effect occurs while slotted on either ability bar and does not consume Ultimate.”

Its low duration and low damage would incentivise high status chance to keep it up and running. The fact it deals Frost damage itself, would mean it could trigger itself when it applies Chilled… Permafrost lives up to its name. The fact it occurs on either bar means you can use it alongside another Ultimate like Eye of The Storm for perfect synergy, without it being overpowered due to it having no snare or protection and low damage. In stark contrast to its Northern Storm counterpart, which would act as the temporary, high damage alternative that provides protection and a snare.

The reason behind this thinking is that Permafrost really only gets a duration bonus in its current form… Tanks tend to go for Northern Storm anyway in PvE or more likely Warhorn… so outside of its PvP snare (which is already too much) is its only real appeal. Stamina Warden’s don’t lose much outside of the snare either meaning they will need to go for Northern Storm for a milder snare.

In short, this suggestion acts as both a nerf, while opening up a unique option for Warden players.

1) revert this latest animation update. It causes skills to lag, input delays and is an overall disaster.
