Please, ZOS... Make Tesusah's Dream Come True!
Do you know how long she's been looking for this? (Spoiler alert: since 2019!) Look at how sad she is. Please make her dream (and coincidentally, mine) come true and give us a most beautiful and wonderous Moonlight Senche-Tiger to ride!

No, it's not, because if I re-roll and don't get what I want, I'll just do what I've been doing since they introduced endeavors. I'll skip whatever I don't want to do. But at least now, with limited free re-rolls, if there's an item or two that I really don't want to do, I have a chance to change it. We didn't have that before.
Nobody is forcing anyone to spend money.
I mean, hey, I can be pretty hard on ZOS at times, so if I thought the tomes were bad, I'd say so. But I don't.

Re: PvP etiquette in Open World (watching or helping)
Respect the 1v1.
It is interesting that the people who advocate for this are most likely the ones who are in favor of killing PvE players at the Cyrodiil town quest turn-ins during Whitestrake's Mayhem because everyone in PvP is a valid target. It can’t work both ways.
Re: Should sublcasses have damage/healing scaled down
This was one path they could have chosen but the mastery passives is a much better idea. Another opportunity of adding class identity! Quite exciting!

If you are with me, simply leave a reply saying "I am with you" to show ZoS we are not going to stand for this.
BS. You really ask to remove the protection ? Without protection we dont get any ping at all. And Akamai is the industry leader. Sad state of gaming but thats it. Or do you want ZOS pay bitcoin every week for "data protection services" ?
1:You really ask to remove the protection
That's not what I'm asking
2:Without protection we dont get any ping at all
You should probably do some research on how the internet works
3:And Akamai is the industry leader
Definition of industry leader: A company that is important in a particular industry because it has the highest level of sales, the best products etc a person who is very important in an industry or in business.
4:Or do you want ZOS pay bitcoin every week for "data protection services" ?
ZOS does not use bitcoin
You have been terribly mislead in information, mague
Op its silly that you believe your sub means anything to them, i have 3 friends all PVP players that have bought 200-300+ of these new crates to get the opal steed they sit on 3k to 6k crown gems at the moment, people that can will still spend a ton of money on this u dont change anything im sorry to break it to you
It's silly that you believe staying silent is the best way to handle things. That's how people get nowhere, very quickly too. You don't need to be sorry to break anything to me, you're not the bearer of bad news here, nor do you have a voice to make judgement.

They got rid of it, it should have been left that way. They know how many times we've already complained about it yet after a good run and good feedback of a lag free game without Akamai, they decide to bring it back. It makes no sense.
Maybe its just me being an Aussie but that ping looks good to me, on a good day even before the latest update, normally sitting at double the ping value you have shown in your screenshot, on a bad day 999+
People are playing the game with much worse ping then you are, not saying it's right, just adding my 2 cents but reserving my sympathy for when your connection starts to come close to what I and many others have to deal with.
The servers are in a sad state that when your showing what is a crap ping for you, that still looks good to many others playing this game.
I live in Australia too and with a VPN I sit on 220-250 ping which is playable, not the best but still playable. A jump in double the ping is completely unplayable. Rubber-banding, dying well and truly outside of AoE's after dodging out of them (even BEFORE you know an AoE is coming), skills not being cast, missing half my light attacks... It's unacceptable

I am saying I wont play a game that does not work.
I dont care about people who spend 150$ + on crates... I had friends who do hard drugs and gamble, I just removed myself from their lives. And learn from their mistakes.
I just know what is good for me and my Self Respect when paying for a product. The second I am displeased with it I stop and move on, its that simple.
Each dollar makes a difference, the worst the performance is in game the less people will spend on it.. its that simple.
You keep mistaking not subbing with expecting something to change. It's simply not paying for something that's defective. If it becomes the new normal I can't even play this for free.you all think your month worth of sub means something to this company, there are dozens of people who buy 200+ crates each time a new batch come out, its sad y'all are so naive
Well said
Re: Merciless Resolve annoying sound...
It's a very useful skill—I'm not able to see a yellow glow on my skill bar with a lot happening in combat, and we should be looking at the battle, not our skills, with how fast-paced ESO is. It may not be your preference, but I wish they would add this to reaching 3 Crux (without using an addon).
Re: Argonian Race need a urgent revamp of passive skills
Historically Argonians were always the best at using spears, but since we don't have a spear weapon type, Alchemy is the only thing we really have to work with here. I do think the potion passive deserves a second line that buffs alchemical poisons because it's a bit upsetting poisons aren't relevant outside of some niche applications in PvP. Especially with those new skill scrolls coming up that share a cooldown with potions, it's kind of a nerf to Argonians if you think about it.
That said, I am at least happy Argonians are actually good for healing now ever since ZOS raised the base stats on all characters. Before that Altmer had a greater bonus to healing and damage than Argonians even though Argonians get their bonus only towards healing.

Re: Sorcerer rework, new class, new systems, house building, and various improvements for ESO
I agree, you’re 100% right on a lot of this here.
I think part of the reason you’re seeing so much Mag Sorc input is that if we’re talking about the fundamental class identity, Sorc falls more into a Magicka lore than a Stam one. This could be one of the bigger reasons why Sorc never got proper Stam attention or allocation.
I’m not opposed to an expansion of Stam focused skills for Sorc, but, I will say that this opens the door to much bigger problem when it comes to any class where range DPS is a core part of the class identity, and that is Stam has become a FAR too over prioritized resource, especially in PvP, to a much lesser degree in PvE but PvP is a big part of end game ESO content and Sorc has to be viable in both PvE & PvP.
The problem with Stam is that it gravitates around melee skills which have a much lower accuracy threshold and therefore a higher reliability of strike than ranged DPS where reticle & hit detection in both PvP & PvE is atrocious.
Further, Stam based builds see their damage scaling tied to the same resource that’s used as primary counter play for evasion, damage mitigation, and break free. Mag based builds can’t break free from CC using Magicka, nor can they dodge with Magicka. A Stam player that can allocate resource into the Stam pool gets both the extra ability to block, dodge, & break free sustain all while having their damage scale off that resource, that’s a 2 for 1 benefit that Mag doesn’t get. And currently it’s not though Mag scaling is higher than Stam scaling to account for this.
So if we’re going to talk about expanding resources for Stam based Sorcs we need to really talk about and make sure we’re including some sort of utility passive or Skill that enables Mag based Sorcs to keep pace in light of the growing priority Stam has in combat; otherwise we risk Sorc pivoting to Stam based a baseline in order to be competitive which greatly affects the class.
We want to be inclusive of play styles but not to the point that they ever undermine the fundamental of the class, unless, we’re going to redefine the class.
One idea might be that Sorc skills work similar to how some of the Arc skills work whereby the scaling is based off of your max resource (either Mag or Stam). In this way a player can select a skill and utilize its function and have it run off of their main resource, and, the game can scale so that Stam isn’t continuously over prioritized.
Agreed. I'd also like to add that most Stamina skills are melee, thus they have a 10% damage bonus, resulting in higher damage than magic skills. Stamina also has a faster regeneration rate than magic .
And many magic skills are forcibly tied to healing and resource effects. Therefore, for the sake of balance (at least to appear balanced in the spreadsheet), these magic skills are often weaker than Stamina skills. This isn't limited to Sorc; it includes other classes like Punctuating Sweep, Endless Fury, Burning Embers, etc. This further widens the damage gap between Stamina and magic skills, which is why Stamina builds are the mainstream in PvE.
If each class's spam skills and at least one burst skill were based on the Highest/Lowest Max Resource, like Arc, I think it would help increase build diversity and optimize some niche playstyles.
Yeah the 10% has always been a bit of a head scratcher for me.
I understand the idea of a melee player incurring a certain risk to approach a target but ZoS essentially gave melee players a gracious allowance of a 7m melee range, which is nearly 29% MORE than what, IMO, a reasonable melee range would be at 5m.
Most melee skills don’t require precise reticle targeting and can strike multiple opponents where’s most magic skill that are AoE based are more often ground AoE oriented with only a small minority being player based AoE.
Further, a good amount of self-targeted opponent approach counterplay & CC skills do observe a 5m range which gives melee players basically a free 2m grace to deal damage without risking some counterplay.
The extra damage scaling for melee never really made sense and it makes even less sense after subclassing.

Please, no! I'm already abandoning the nightblade because of this, I hope they don't make the arcanist noisier than it already is. I also don't like the visual aesthetics of arcanist, but at least there's no noise for the 3 crux. Now that you mentioned it, I've even come to like arcanist more and appreciate it as it is.
What this game needs is to be more refined, reducing the excessive sound and visual noise. In the case of Relentless Focus, I'm even surprised, because I like everything about the starting classes, except for that noise in the Nightblade skill and the Sorcerer's pets (but I don't use those). Because in general, I even find the effects of Necro, Warden, and Arcanist much worse than those of the original classes.
