Re: Possibly obvious Night Market district question
It’s 36 total players maximum across all 3 districts and the plaza. That’s probably the problem.

Btw. even if it would be possible to solo this in the theory, it's actually not, cause the game keeps stopping. The delay is a catastrophy. Since the last update playing bekame really annoing. The next update should be about the server performace, just saying...
If you chose ruckus you're instanced with other ruckus players and they have the least population
Everyone can play together, regardless which faction. Instances aren't separated by faction, only by population.
I was told that too but in that case they need better instnacing
Empty and Overpowered Night Market.
Was in there for 2 hours trying to kill stuff and only seen 3 other players, the enemy is to overpowered and I'm guessing there is a lot of different instances because its so empty yet score keeps going up. On top of that if you accept the quest on one of your characters, when you accept quest on a different one the curator doesn't have the dialog to start quest, he also doesn't appear outside near the portal. I'm on Xbox NA.

Despite all the chest pounding and boasting in this thread from the Vengeance fans, it is on day two already a dead campaign.

And yes I know it resets early, even with the math incorporating this, this is really really bad, and in fact if it wasnt regularly resetting, the difference would be even greater.
This campaign is actually deader than Ravenwatch and Blackreach, impressive. And Zos decided to halt our very competitive, very active Greyhost pvp, for this. Pvers claim they want Vengeance yet not enough of them are saying this to make the campaign function, much less make it competitive.
Give it a rest Zos, and focus again on Greyhost. This is ridiculous.BardokRedSnow wrote: »I popped in rq to see how the Vengeance was Coming along:

Before Vengeance came out I was a hater. I thought it sounded as dumb as No Proc Ravenwatch. But after playing it I saw the potential. Will it live up to that? Idk, it hasn't yet.
I did on the first test, for an hour, then never bothered to again. It was a zerg fest, and judging from the pictures of the campaign score and the map being all red every time I go in to see it, it still is.
And judging from my friends list going from almost 30 every day online out of 100 to under 7, I'm not the only one. People don't need to invest hours of time to decide what they like, they will simply not play it, and the game dies.
I encourage Zos to remember this with so many game developers trying the same thing, telling customers "just try it please" instead of listening to what they want in the first place. The game dies, and thats it.
Also considering most of the vengeance enjoyers stop playing themselves after a day or two, it doesn't seem like I'm missing out much.
Dedicated Greyhost players play every single day, at least in one time block, especially primetime. Vengeance will never be that, it hasn't been since the first test once everyone realized that zerging is 99 percent of the game mode and nothing else.
Cyrodiil PVP in general is a zerg fest. It doesn't matter what mode it is.
There's zerging players, and then there's zerging empty keeps.
These 2 cherrypicket Screenshots are not really comparable.
While Grey Host score is over a duration of 20 days, Vengeance score from screenshot doesnt cover even one day but only 12 hours. Factions often hold map at different times of the day, but if you play only in the evening you will only see the score of EP taking the map at noon but not of DC taking it at night and AD in early morning because score resets at noon. EP emperors didnt last for more than a few hours before getting dethroned.
It is also nonsense to compare Vengeance score with GreyHost rather than with the campaigns it is supposed to replace. GreyHost has only a third of Vengeance capacity but majority of Cyrodiils playerbase and is therefore easy to fill. If a faction has more players they dont fit into GreyHost and have to play Cyrodiil in other campaign or not at all.
Vengeance has the players and unbalance from queue and other campaigns too.
GreyHost having faction scores so close together is extremely rare either.
Vengeance also didn’t receive low pop and low score bonus yet, otherwise for each of them DC and AD would have received 150% more score and 110% more ap which would have motivated more players on these factions to play and the score would be similar or better than in BR/RW.
The problem is not normalized stats but missing low pop/score bonus and unreachable pop cap.
Don’t see how posting screenshots of the first few days of Vengeance is cherry picking. I would say that if @BardokRedSnow was championing Vengeance and posted screenshots of the weekend when Vengeance was the only PvP open, then yea I’d agree.

Now that we can hide all armor...
Can we get 'Hide Weapons' (when sheathed) as well? It would solve the problem of weapons floating 6" from our hips, or when staves are placed too high on our backs.

Been overperforming for way too long as "free pressure" and is in dire need of a rework. As React suggested, status effects aside from maybe burning and poisoned ,should purely be debuffs without any damage attached to them.
Big agree.
Stapling a Direct Damage proc to all of the status effects has become very problematic.
However, having each class tied to a specific status effect (which in turn derives from their damage type affinity) and providing a unique damage proc for that specific status effect, IMO, would be neat design.
We see this to a degree with Warden and Chilled and DK and Burning. We will likely see more of it as additional reworks come online. Let a class receive bonus damage from their specific element but none of the rest (excepting Burning and Poisoned, I suppose). Otherwise, have a status effect be useful for its status and nothing more.

Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
If this event had been released as part of an "expansion", I don't think there would be many complaints at all. The issue is the new vision of releasing things piecemeal with very little content being added this year, and probably next year due to the class revamps, is setting them up for players to complain.

That said, I'm not upset. There is a long list of things in this game I love and a long list of things I don't. Fortunately the game is so large and diverse in content that there is plenty for all tastes. Though the Night Market is not my cup of tea, I understand there are those who will enjoy it so I guess that is good for the health of the game. Sort of like Tales of Tribute - tried it, hate it but glad others enjoy it.
I'm only upset about having wings of the house tied to it. I'm glad they let you get the main part without dealing with the mess but having wings I'll never unlock feels bad man.
That and honestly, it seems like this may be the ONLY zone we see this year. If they had given this as part of an update which had a new overland zone or something for the rest of us, most people probably wouldn't even have blinked over it being group based.
Re: The Silence On Antiquity Leads Is Defeaning!
I am not even so into housing like others here, still I can imagine the pain and frustration.
My suggestion is, after you completed a furniture for the first time, you can buy it for 100% of the given price.
With the second completion, you get a 20% discount, paying 80% of the given price.
And after the third completion, you get another 30% discount, paying 50% of the given price.
Of course, the codex entries two and three with the additional lore texts are still kind of a reward in themselves.
Perhaps different %-numbers are *better*, like 300%-200%-100% or 200%-150%-100%, but that's just speculation.
This way, furniture would be much easier to obtain and there is still some incentive to achieve a 3/3 in the codex.
