Quitting due to new Patch

As a DK whom was sword and board, the only way I was managing through the game was with bash. Now that it has been practically eliminated on top of the other debuffs we took WITH the INSANE increase to VR content the game is unplayable. Unless the game is fixed by next week I'll be canceling my subscription. Please fix the game. I'm going to have to go back to WoW.

    New patch has some issues, but dw s/b builds were stupid unbalanced. As a Templar who rand s/b for lvling and support bar weapon, I'm fine with the change.

    Why does everyone, especially a tank, think that they should be able to SOLO every fkn thing in the game, group up for fks sake, get a fracking healer, this is a MMO, not a single player 3rd person shooter. Damn today's kids. WTF.

    It's a single-player game with delusions of grandeur. I've never seen an MMO discourage grouping as much as ESO does.

    Go quest in VR zones and tell me something is not broken there.

    Its a combination of that and the VR mobs. You obviously have not done any PVE since the patch.

    O.k., I've been complaining about a lot of stuff. But this thread's complaint is complete ass-hat fest. You're horribad if you relied on bash as a s/b dk.

    The V1-V10 zones are stuffed. The V11-V12 zones are ok. It would be nice for a single word from the devs to say is the V1-V10 zones are working as they want them too, or if its a bug.

    The game was fine before no need to put the mobs on steroids. If bash was op, just get rid of the bash jewelry & glyphs, no need to totally destroy the skill. And why should we not have the option to group or solo, especially a pack of 3 mobs? Not everyone wants to group up with a bunch of as*holes like Zxaxz!

    Incorrect, people just have rolled through content solo and they think that's how it should be, but YOU decide not to group. People are near you all the time, all you have to do is invite them or shout in area and people come a runnin' I know I do it every single day...You make the choice not to group, not ESO - there are many tools to group up in this game, you choose not to use them is all.

    I can't effectively group with the people I choose to group with due to phasing. We can't group at all on a significant portion of the various quest lines. There's more to grouping than joining up with some randos talking smack in /zone.

    You should take a look at all the threads about how the phasing "feature" makes grouping really difficult. I'm all for grouping, but if I have to struggle to do so, then I wanna be able to solo at least.

    The FEW times I got phased all we had to do was go outside reform and we were all set. Really, it's that hard of a work around? I am not belittling the fact that there are issues, but come on......If one person picks up quests and shares, there are VERY FEW quest you can not do together beside the story line. Then everyone in your group are doing the same quests always. There is even an addon for it, so you dont have to do shiat.

    My issue with phasing is that if I log off and my friend keeps questing, that's the end of our grouping for awhile as I have to do all the quests they did while I was offline solo.

    Guys, quit being stupid. Most all mmos you can solo the story and the extra content. In SWTOR you can. The only new game you need groups in is FFXIV. A player "should" be able to solo all his story content and VR1-10 extra story content. The only thing we should have to group up for is group dungeons and trials. The world bosses and other silly stuff like that. But not the damn solo quest dungeons. Some of the VR ones are way too powerful now. Mzuleft for one. The damn spiders do their lightning procs without even stopping their regular damage. It's like you're fighting double, yet only awarded half the damage for aoe.

    At VR10 the game should be just hard enough to where you have to at least be in all blue gear to beat it. Purple and Gold should have an easier time. THEN the group content, etc.

    It's not that hard to balance a god damn game. And if you're going to NERF something? At least have the common courtesy to offer a free respec. EverQuest did. Other MMOs do.
