Re: The writhing wall event has ended?
There was also a timer ingame on the writhing wall info page in the group menu.

Re: The writhing wall event has ended?
Yes, it was always going to end 7 days from the first clear of the Writhing Fortress on each server.
It seems that the original plan was to have the Pursuit end around the same time as the wall event, but the fact that they sped up Phase 2 meant we hit the Fortress sooner than anticipated, which means it is now over.

Re: Love It Or Hate It - Oakensoul Is A Huge Boon To Our Game/Community (Guide Video As Well)
I am not disabled but I do get pain in my hands sometimes after playing. And I find the Oakensoul builds are easier on my hands. So I like to use my Oakensorc for stuff that is more intensive in gameplay because it's less painful.
A disabled family member of mine used to also play this game and that ring really opened the game up more for him.
Oakensoul is a wonderful accessibility option.

"See, it's easy without Oakensoul to solo a VHMDLC boss doing super high DPS" - proceeds to smash 8.000 buttons per second.
Before subclassing my build was already easy, IMO easier than the famous "Lazy Sorc" - As a Warden I just activated Deep Fissure for debuff, kept Heavy Attack button down, pressed Polar Wind if needed a heal and applied Wall if felt fancy. Nothing else. Cleared VHM base game and NDLC. (5 Heavy pieces and 35-40k health btw)
Can no-Oakensoul clear the same? Yes!
Can no-Oakensoul do better? Yes!
BUT CAN I ACHIEVE THAT WITHOUT OAKENSOUL? NO.
It's not a matter of objectivity, it's subjective. Stop saying we are misleading the community - there are people who fall in love with this item and who couldn't perform the same without. We are NOT saying this is true for everyone; this is true for US. We are impaired, not dumb; we know if we can perform better in a different way - we can't.
I am thankful for the videos put out on the subject, because I'm happy to learn, but each oakensoul user's reasons are different - I can't imagine what another one is living, their condition. They know better than anyone. Please don't make them feel worse than what they already feel. Thanks.
(Keep in mind: what looks like boring, slow game-play to you can feel like a Speedrun to someone else)
Can I thank you, I genuinely appreciate you and the few others who are helping shed light and perspective on this.
I know I shouldn't be shocked, but the sub Reddit thread I posted about this one has been BOMBED. And some of them clearly aren't even watching the video, but just being negative. Some guy loosely accused me or others of using "the disabled" as he put it, simply for mentioning how it can help with accessibility. Which I literally did for my mother who is elderly and disabled as stated. Like we aren't allowed to help spread the message and fight the stigma or else we are "using" them? He's essentially saying we can't mention them, like anyone who isn't able bodied is taboo to reference or something gross.
It's absolutely wild how full of hate and bad assertions so many are about this kind of stuff. And btw, I noticed that was one of the few moderators of the ESO subreddit O.o.... Absolutely crazy.
(I already know, I shouldn't be shocked. It's reddit, which can be cesspool.)
But thanks again.

I see your video and raise you one by Hyper instead:

TL:DR Oakensoul is bad even on 1 bar builds and even on solo builds because the buffs it provides are all either useless or easily sourced. Even if you never switch bars and keep your back bar completely empty you're better off using something like Velothi/a monster set (for group content), Rakkhat (for HA builds), or Pale Order (for solo builds).
Not to mention that playing a werewolf will give you way more dps than any oakensoul build you can come up with while still keeping it a 1 bar. You don't even need to track ultimate in this case.

Re: Hoping they at lead abandon the term "content pass"
If I buy something I want the entire content.
I played another game that went to this type of setup and it came across as if they were "coding on the fly" as the game progressed.
So I dropped my ESO+ sub and have not purchased this new season content.
There's plenty to do in the game without it for me.

Bethesda Softworks’ - “Words of the Fallen” mini-cinematic
https://youtu.be/VKqIB2J3hvE?si=wQySBjYnU-cgAL7H- the video features a reading of Darien Gautier’s “Words of the Fallen”
https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Words_of_the_Fallen
First off, I liked the simple presentation. One may compare this unfavourably against previous (big budget) cinematics, but the narrated letter is IMO interesting and prompts a connection of his Summerset story to the Worm Cult Part 2.
I do wish to mention that the narration speed feels improved if slowed to 0.85x instead of the current (original). Slowed down slightly, the delivery feels heavier, more thoughtful, and melancholic.
What were your thoughts on the video ?

Re: New Event
I wish we got 2 tickets for doing any 1 daily.
I think stuff like this is part of event fatigue. Having to take time to do 2 different dailies a day means less time/energy for our normal play routines.

I get the offical name is season of the worm cult but on storefront it is content pass 2025 and it just poorly resonates with potential consumer.
I think this is a really underestimated point and that you are completely right. This terminology is off-putting pseudo gamer-lingo. The fact that several successful modern games have "passes" must have lead people to conclude passes make games successful - whereas I have not met a single person that likes what such a pass implies: temporary content or temporary access.
People are becoming numb to the barrage of FOMO-based attention grabs and I think passes are a failing system.
Even if the content stays the same, this is a poor way of marketing it.
