Re: Calamatous Dunegorger
You have to get swallowed up and wind up in a bad place with a lot of poison stuff to engage this boss in a fight. It’s hard to explain but that’s the deal

Re: Does Night Market Have Too Many Instances Up?
I suspect they will increase the cap. Even with 2 groups of people converging on a boss, it doesn’t topple over like a world boss during an event. There’s room to increase the cap. I understand why it’s all one zone now though… you can see if a skirmish is up on another map, you can see the bosses on other maps, you can move between them without dealing with people having long load screens…
You wouldn't have a lot of these problems if ZOS managed to find a way to get bosses challenge to scale to the number of players... you know.... like just about every other MMO out there.
Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
Nightmarket is an event zone for everyone... err... NO! Advertising of Nightmarket is misleading in my opinion.
Dear ESO-Team,
you want to create a world for everyone and every play style and this is absolutely o.k. BUT you WON'T change people's minds on content they don't like in general. You'll never get me to enjoy PVP or things I need to group up for. I like quests, I like stories, I like to explore.
Many people won't participate Nightmarket. Not because they are too stupid to group up, but due to their preferred play-style and/or mindset. I'm an introvert, I'm old and I have a life outside of ESO. After work, I simply don't want to talk to people or group up or match with other players in pvp and I especially don't have time to wait half an hour for groups to build or else. I just want to play.
Since years you try to force-push paying people into content they don't enjoy with exciting time-limited rewards, foliant points (former event tickets) they can only achieve by playing this specific content they dislike. If people running away from ESO this might be one of the main reasons. Just stop it.
-> Looks like these could be the first "Golden Pursuits" I'm not gonna finish. I'd love to have that skin and I'd also love to access the additional features of the new home, but I'm not willing to waste my time, waiting half an hour for a random group I can join or follow.
My ideas to fix this nightmarket:
1.) Make two versions of Nightmarket. One with open dungeon difficulty, so people can enter the areas, do a few dailies and usually they form small random groups for the bosses (like overland bosses).
Additional a version with harder difficulty for large groups (like it is) with every reward in gold or whatever.
2.) If you strictly want it to be group only content and lock out solo players - Put a huge button "nightmarket" in group activity search menu, where you can join and wait until a party of required people is full. Like for dungeons. Yes I've noticed the small menu button "event area". Not sure if a lot of people will use it this way.

Re: Night Market: Getting started and basics
Necrotech_Master wrote: »one thing im really confused about is where do you get windglass to get through the sand walls in the parch district
there is 0 explanation, hints, or anything on what to do about those
Windglass is one of the three relics. Being able to bypass those sand walls is the reward for completing the relic for that district.
that would have been helpful to know earlier on, but there was no indication thats where it was from
when interacting with the sandwall it just gives an error message saying "you need windglass to get through this" without any context
none of the quest dialog up to this point indicated that would be needed either, and there are no friendly npcs or lorebooks nearby to give any hints on this
i found the parch to be the most annoying zone because of the sandwalls, there were several bosses that it was unclear how to even reach them because of the sandwalls, which makes needing to kill them first to get the windglass in the first place makes it more frustrating
the other 2 districts i found fine, they had side areas for the relics but not actively blocking any of the boss encounters
Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
Why can't we enter the vault room in the house? It's just visual with a popup if you interact. It feels like a cheaply made free mobile game.

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
Hey hitting a single button to swap bars is REALLY HARD you guys!
This argument is so tired and beat to death. On live I have always found the utility of a second bar significantly easier than not having one. That's a whole 5+1 extra skills full of utility and survivability plus a second 5-piece or Arena weapon set to proc and sit on while swapping back to front bar. Never have I EVER thought "man, I wish I could use LESS skills." It's always been "I wish I had ONE MORE SLOT."
These folks are arguing like they're forced to fight with a hand tied behind their back, when in reality they are fighting with both hands while a second set of hands is holding a bazooka for when they need it.

I've seen a lot of talk about why or why not werewolf should be as strong as a two-bar setup. I think with these reworks it should be as strong as Dragonknight, but werewolf NEEDS drawbacks for being one-bar and currently it does have those which I will list. Dragonknights on the live server right now are capable of pressing 3 buttons and nuking multiple players back-to-back, while having almost infinite sustain, cross heals, chain pull, ranged aoe damage, major expedition, snare removal, good defense, and more. I have no issue with this and have never asked for nerfs since the new class refresh.
Playing werewolf, you have a LOT of drawbacks such as increased poison damage taken, no weapon passives, forced to deal with a transformation timer system, no cross healing, no purge or snare removals, limited healing while kiting and not actively on top of a player, no range damage, no burst damage, no shields, lack of group utility or support ultimates, cannot place siege, cannot restore magicka via heavy attacks for the only on-demand heal in the toolkit, no access to scribing, most class passives do not work in form, no proper crouch/sneak, cannot use skill scrolls, can't mount in form, meaning you can't keep up with others going between keeps in Cyrodiil, several mythics don't work for us, like Rakkhat's Voidmantle.
@ZOS_Gilliam @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_BrianWheeler
Werewolf is designed as a melee brawler with strengths and drawbacks. Simply put, melee range is Werewolf's domain. If you are in melee range fighting a Werewolf, you are not fighting it correctly.
Werewolf cannot attack you from range, only gap close into melee range. Werewolf cannot purge negative effects like snares and damage over time, and has a limited Magicka pool to burn on self healing when there is no target in their melee range to gain health from.
Certain Class kits are built around being in melee range (like Templar and Dragonknight), but the human form always has the flexibility to build differently. There are ranged alternatives to those playstyles, and you can even swap between melee and ranged with the loadout of your two skill bars. Werewolf is permanently stuck as this melee brawler archetype.
Since we cannot test Update 50's Werewolf in Cyrodiil on the PTS, we aren't seeing the full picture. You're expected to be in melee range in a duel, so Werewolf is going to shine in that environment. Once we see Update 50's Werewolf in Cyrodiil, you'll find how easy it is to counter them.
Re: Necro class mastery passives are disappointing
Necromancer needs a class mastery that removes the whole "use corpse to empower skill a/b/c". Then I would consider playing Necromancer again. The corpse mechanic is just clunky to the max. Same with tethers. They're too weak and clunky as well.
Something like:
"Every [10/5] seconds you get Corpse Mastery, allowing you to empower one of your skills like you would consume a corpse. Can be stacked two times"
"You become a master of tethers. Each of your tethers spreads to [1/2] additional allies or enemies within a 20m range, applying all the effects as if they were your original target."

Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
I’ve got no problem with the difficulty level. I enjoy group play. With my raid group, the enemies were down in no time. But the grinding is a nightmare. Why on earth does it have to be such an endless grind before you can do this trial? Everyone has to collect some shards, splinters, keys - I don't know what– over and over again. Who comes up with this b... sh?
And the quests are a punishment. Completely confusing and chaotic.
The quest markers are very hard to see. The design is disastrous. 
Without group members on voice chat, I wouldn’t have had a chance of seeing anything. What on earth is that about??
I can’t see the new house in my list. I can see it on the map but can’t teleport there. I could only teleport in via the collection... apparently buggy too...
Well, at least this content is free. I wouldn’t buy it anyway. And I’m not going to spend another cent on this game. Not least because of the upcoming changes and nerfs with update 50.
You could just say, ‘Don’t do it if you don’t like it.’ And normally, I wouldn’t. But my raid group wants to do the raid – and, of course, quite often. So I’m stuck grinding this rubbish non-stop for days. It’s almost a violation of the Geneva Conventions
Please excuse my language, but my frustration has reached breaking point and there’s nowhere to vent it. I am utterly disappointed with ESO :'(
