This is the second incremental patch for Update 49 in The Elder Scrolls Online. This incremental addresses issues in Base Game content and Season Zero. Specifically, we are addressing additional issues that emerged during the initial Update 49 Launch.

We resolve several opportunities for crashes, incorrect assets, and unintentional sound effects. For example, the Vanos Dungeon Delve Outfit Style no longer plays sound effects not connected to the outfit style. Additionally, we have resolved an issue with Searing Strike and its morphs, as they no longer appear to be unintentionally locked.

We also have some general user experience improvements related to the Tamriel Tome and Seasonal challenges. These fixes aim to address some of the feedback we saw during the launch of Season Zero and the Tamriel Tome.

The full list of patch notes is available below. If you expected a specific bugfix and it is not reflected below, we intend to have more fixes in Update 50. Thanks, everyone!
