Hello ZOS Combat Team, @ZOS_BrianWheeler

Given the increasing number of complaints regarding the new version of the DragonKnight, I think it's time for a nerf.

Why can't we wait until you update our other classes?
Well, because it would take too long.
We want to play, right?

You can keep the beautiful animations, but reduce its power, however you can, find a way.

Thank you.

OH BROTHER. Here we go with this. The game is being balanced, one class at a time. Classes without the rework will seem underpowered in some aspects. Get over it. This is for the longevity of the game.

If it seems overpowered after ALL class reworks are done, then come back here and post again.

This was complained about way back when Murkmire dropped, and was barely addressed. Given how absurdly tanky recent WB fights have become, I doubt they're going to change it at all.

It has not been a quiet topic, they bring it up almost every livestream.

They are still working on it. It will not be this year.

I'm not interested in damage sponges.

I don't go through the effort to make my character stronger just to then flip a switch and make them nerfed.

Probably nothing. If it was a separate instance, I would try it. As proposed, I most likely won't bother.

He’s been my favorite companion by far in every respect, his skills, storyline, and his personality. My favorite quote, “My moon claw draws me to you.”

The idea of Season Passes in any game, not just ESO, is that they want players to be incentivized to interact with the game frequently. If it were set up in a way where someone could just grind one season and then log off for three whole months because they have enough currency, that’s three whole months of that player not interacting with the game… and not spending money on it.

Sure, everyone can argue “but I would spend more money if I wasn’t feeling forced to!” but… that’s one person. Pretty well every Live-service game is trying to add FOMO passes of this sort because they work and there’s a lot of research showing that they do.

I agree - they want to bring in revenue, obviously, but they also want players to be in-game as much as possible.

I like the tomes overall, but I don't like having to earn a certain number of tome points to unlock pages. It goes against the "no FOMO" and "we don't want you to feel like ESO is a job and you're on a hamster wheel" philosophy the leadership says it's going for. Earning points to unlock pages is obviously there to force people to spend a certain amount of time in-game. Maybe more than they can or really want to.

Sure, it's been calculated that we can earn more than enough tome points from the challenges to unlock everything. But that's assuming you're able to spend enough time in-game to earn those points. If you're going on vacation, or you have a prolonged illness, or a family, or a demanding job, or whatever, and you can't play for X amount of time every day, it's possible you won't earn enough points to unlock the pages.

Okay, so maybe you upgrade to premium so you have more time. But if I'm understanding correctly, the tome stays around for you to buy stuff, but the number of challenges you can do will always remain the same. You get 5 weekly challenges, and you can carry some over to a maximum of 12. So if you can only ever play 30 or 60 minutes a day (not everyone can sit around and game for hours every day), it's possible that if you upgraded to premium every time, there will still be pages that remain locked so you can't buy the stuff anyway.

I'd like to see the locked pages go away. It should at least be a feature of the premium tome. All the pages should be unlocked when you buy a tome, so if you're unable to complete every weekly challenge and every seasonal challenge, you won't be locked out of getting something you really want on page 10.

I say this because I feel more pressure to spend time in-game now than I did with endeavors and golden pursuits, and I'm not liking it. And it's all due to having to unlock pages. Otherwise, I could figure out what I want from a tome, calculate how many tome points I'd need to get the items, and play in a more relaxed manner. I wouldn't have to earn thousands of tome points before I could buy something for 1000 tome points on page 10. I'd just have to earn 1000 tome points.

Their lack of creativity for the endeavor/challenges is astounding.

Someone might ask you, what makes a hero? One who can admirably vanquish 1000 tiny creatures that can't defend themselves, of course. Now, go forth and make Alduin (insert any other ruthless being you wish here) proud. Do try and stay awake though.

"Keep killing people, animals, insect, and monsters, until up to 1000 count in the specific overland zone...without any reason."

What kind of nonsense is this? Even It's not MMO or ElderScrolls theme at all.

I will never use it.
