Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
Another bit of feedback on oddities after last night's pug.
- They take too long to reset
-
- They need to have an immunity zone when active or have a wider aggro range. Twice we were almost done with the spider race and a trash mob got kited onto us, likely by accident due to the location being in a "hallway" from one place to another. You have to stop and fight them, but even if you kill the trash its game over and a long tedious wait to reset that includes multiple mob respawns.
-
- Most of them are kind of opaque as far as what to do, which is fine, but due to the mob density and respawn, you really dont have the luxury to stand there figuring it out for long. I guess that's part of a the challenge (?) but given the slow reset, still annoying.
Also, thank you for the Imperial statue. My Imperial gal was stoked when the lead for this beauty dropped.

That's not correct. The statement was that it would be hard to solo, so one would probably prefer to follow some other players along. That's not the same as saying "group content". So people had different expectations, obviously.
There was also a statement that it was an attempt at a "soft grouping zone" - which is understood at just tagging along with others who randomly show up - basically like it had been with the Writhing Fortress last year, where you absolutely neither needed a pre-organized group nor use some grouping tool, you could just run with the masses. So also that led to different expectations.
technically speaking vet dungeons are "hard to solo", and for some people even the vet solo arenas are hard to solo
i would slot the night market in with soloing vet dlc dungeons, its absolutely possible to solo (i was doing so for awhile on thursday on a full tank build, obviously i had low dmg so it took forever to kill anything, but i was soloing with a dps companion)
what would you expect from them saying that it would be difficult to solo? im trying to gauge what the expectation was from the announcement of what you thought "hard to solo" meant
i would say that soft grouping would work better if the zone instance had a higher population cap, with a 36 person pop cap for the entire night market, that seems exceptionally low and soft grouping would be a lot better if it allowed more people per instance

Even if you are good, the lag all over the game is so bad right now that this area is unplayable.
Re: ZOS, Massive Spike in Ping/LAG in Recent Days - What Gives?
I’ve been gone 6 ish months now (whole lotta family health problems) and only came back a couple days ago.
I see not much has improved performance wise. In a five minute time span, in GH Cyrodiil, fights just came to a standstill, only to “fast forward” suddenly, twice. Twice in five minutes. This isn’t prime time, and there are barely 3 bars between all factions.
PvE is not much better. Time stood still just running around Khenarthi’s Roost for a treasure map, then the rapid rubber banding. Checked our internet connection (Arizona has dog water internet) but amazingly it’s actually doing just fine.

Re: WOW - you get NOTHING while reviving during a skirmish
why the hell do people have to respawn so far away from the fight?? it makes absolutely no sense. instead of jumping back in and actually helping, you’re stuck wasting time running back like it’s some kind of punishment. it completely kills the flow and just drags everything out for no reason.
honestly, this whole design feels so damn bad… it’s frustrating, clunky, and just makes an already annoying fight even worse. who thought this was a good idea??

Maybe you misread/misinterpreted that?
No, I understood what you meant. What I wanted to say is that you are using the word "competent" and "perfect" interchangably, which is not true. Just because they are competent players doesn't mean they won't eventually make mistakes. I've had a fair share of stalemate duels vs competent players and the only reason those stalemates even happened was because both of us built tanky enough to survive each other's one shot combo. When a 1 shot combo is powerful enough to 100-0 someone, it is only a matter of time before one person finally dies from a mistake or like you said, lag rngjesus.
True. And thats my point CoE should stay as it is. Ys made very clear how potent Ardent is. The pureclass masteries have at least be feasible to compete.
Core of flame shouldnt enter into a discussion about balance other than how it should be nerfed because of how obviously busted it is. Rest of the kit for ardent flame and dk in general is imo fine, strong but not problematic. Saying something should be on that level imo immediately discredits anything you can ever say about balance

Re: WOW - you get NOTHING while reviving during a skirmish
this has now happened THE SECOND time within 2 hours - got eaten by the calamity right at the end of the Skirmish im sorry but this is COMPLETELY killing any desire to even start the game let alone enter the nightmare market - this is grossly offensively wasting my time im so mad i could punch through the wall im not gonna lie - ive never been SO annoyed by this game in 10 years
To call this horrible abysmal design would be a compliment - why is this a thing??????

Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
This content for group only players sucks for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I also have limited time so do not group.
Will not pay to play this!
I want solo content or I give up on ESO!

Re: Why Werewolf should be as strong as Dragonknight while having drawbacks
Yeah I don't WANT to lose class masteries, but I also rather not get nerfed so far into the dirt that I HAVE to run a puresorc or a pureDk to get decent numbers with WW either. It's very much a give or take situation.
And currently consider me in the bargaining stage of grief lol.
