Tomes turned out to be great
Tomes turned out to be great. There is enough content in them to replace what we were getting with the Daily Endeavors. The re-roll option means I don't have to do things I would otherwise avoid. A bit more time to grind them lets me skip a day and we even get credit for partial completion. The 15 tome points per day are a decent replacement for daily logons. The rewards are better and I get actual choices.
Great work on this one ZOS, a definite improvement.

Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
I love it in a group! 
ZOS put a lot of work into the NPCS, zone design, lots of cool stuff to see!
But
It definitely falls outside of the marketing mantra "play how you want" for many solo players.
I know there is already other content in game that also limits solo players, trials, some newer or progress-locked dungeons, etc.
But this being a limited time "event" it's odd to me that they did not make it so all players can participate equally.
I'm fortunate to have awesome guildies I can run it with but for those that can't, they kind get left out which is sad.
Solo, you can put together a good stealth build with sets and do the dailies that don't involve killing things.
But most of the boss fights you will need a solid coordinated group, trial-level group recommended.
They could do well to space the groups of trash further apart also.
Soloing ONE group of trash can be doable, but in many places they are spaced so closely to other mobs you end up pulling way more than is manageable running solo.
Other minor concern is the the rewards from the non-gold boxes being very underwhelming.
However the lead drop rate has been great and the gold box rewards are decent.
Solid content overall, I just think it could benefit from a little optimization and a more solo-friendly touch.

Re: So where is the actual market in the Night Market
The faction merchants do sell 3 Trial sets. Infallible Mage, Eternal Warrior, and Vicious Serpent. Not that they're BiS by any means, but being able to buy them is somewhat notable. So at least there's that.

Agree with Tenthirty2 om this, "But this being a limited time "event" it's odd to me that they did not make it so all players can participate equally."
Re: Crazy Market daily locations
I check that site and page often - before and after the Night Market got released. The information on the district and precinct quests are basic stuff known from simply reading the quest text in Journal. OP is asking for detailed maps that provide exact specific locations that are not (yet) available on ESO-hub. This is the same for all other sites, including Alcast, fextralife, reddit, gamemaps dot com. I do not understand what is your issue with their question.
As such, I did my own DIY and mapped out the markers myself.

I came to share. Enjoy.
Re: Nerfing WW further in Next Update for PvE?!
Font of Power essentially forces players to stack a less important stat (Maximum Resources) and convert it into another relatively minor stat (Weapon Damage). This passive essentially deprives Sorc of the opportunity to stack other important stats (critical, critical resistance, and penetration), and even completely fails to leverage Sorc's strengths.
This applies to virtually all of Sorc's masteries. Because Sorc's attack frequency is actually very low, even changing Static Reverberation to 0.3 seconds wouldn't have a significant impact. Sorc's spellcasting abilities are all much longer than 0.5 seconds, so Calculated Defense is almost useless in protecting a Sorc casting a spell, and the 6% extra weapon damage is far less important than the team support capabilities of other classes. Sphere of Influence is the most absurd; Sorc has no ability to shield teammates, not to mention that the shield only lasts 3 seconds.
Look, i can get to 44k max mag with 3 stat enchants while running rele + draugrkin. I wasnt even using stuff like mage light to push it even further or stuff like crafty/ancient grace. Ofc i wouldnt run rele now but you get the point, no you dont need to sacrifice much to get to 40k+ range, you really dont
You already sacrifice enough, and even then, other classes have better and/or less conditional perks.
Less conditional? The condition for this perk is that you make a build, thats it. Conditional would be like wardens. Obviously you have to build into the passive in order to make use of it. Again, this passive cant be balanced for low resource pool while also not being broken at higher pools, this is the passive we get and this is the passive around which we build.
And honestly its hard to make a sorc build below 6-6.5k weapon damage range no matter what you do atm in pts. Thats not weak, at all.
The condition is that you sacrifice a bunch of far more powerful stats as opposed to either having no condition at all, or a condition that is basically none, like having 5 status effects on an enemy. Warden can do this with a single ability flick.
The passive has to be balanced for low ressource pools, because that is where the vast majority of players sit in pve and pvp. Look at the most popular and successful builds. Most pvp builds barely even exceed 20k magicka. That is your balancing point. Maybe 30k. Afterwards, you already ruin start ruining your build in favor of magicka. (The worst offensive stat in the game)
You dont sacrifice stuff for it, you get your resources from stat points, race bonus and tri stat enchants, and a good tri stat food like sugar skulls. You literally cant get anything else with those stuff. You either get stamina, health or magicka. You arent using a skill slot or set for it. The only thing you are sacrificing is health and even that can be mitigated by building around it ie gallant chain or just allocating more stat points to health. You literally, physically cannot use those for anything else so no you arent sacrificing anything.
Lets stop with this narrative that you are sacrificing crit chance or penetration or what have you for it, you cant. All you can sacrifice to get to this easily reachable range is some hp. Thats it. And no you arent running around in 18k hp for it, you are running around in 28-29k
Yea, everyone in the entire world already uses tri stat enchants, racial bonuses (obviously) and stat points and Sugar Skulls are widely used as well. What's your point? Everyone uses this and still lingers around that aforementioned range.
You could of course go 64 into magicka, which leads us again to sacrificing more important things, such as having enough health to not get killed in one global cooldown. You can wind it as you wish: building into too much magicka sabotages your build very quickly.

Could have had a dozen lux vendors selling all the past years stuff.
Re: Crazy Market daily locations
I just wish someone would make an addon that would track which ones I've done...pretty sure I miss out on at least 5 Dailies spread across all the Districts because my squirrel brain forgets which District was finished 'that day'.
