Re: [House Guests] Jorn and/or Biro-Dar -- are you buying?
I like the Khajiit houseguest but it would cost me crowns so I won’t get it.
It seems like in order to keep up with the Joneses in ESO housing that you have to be willing to sink a lot of real life money into your house or take a chance with a crown seller. I wish it didn’t have to be this way.

No. Neither of them seem fit for purpose.
The guard is not a commanding presence. A bit of a dozy, milk-drinker in fact. And who employs one guard anyway, who's going to watch his back? I'd want him in better armour than that as well, and wearing my personal livery.
The cat is a sleaze. I would feel uncomfortable with him living on the same continent, let alone in my home. He'd probably sell all my precious possessions and then turn it into a brothel.

Re: 1vX - How? (PvP)
1vX are using very specific builds, designed to buff their defense and survivability. There are sets which drastically increase offensive capabilities, after taking damage for a period, and that is one of the ways they can also deal damage.
The skill use within the build is also vital, these folks are using specific skills, in specific situations, that keep them alive or offer huge burst damage in combination with the sets I eluded to earlier.
Also, speed buffs with line of sight mechanic exploitation. You may think 6 people are doing damage to them the reality is its probably less cos they are line of sighting, dodging, blocking etc.
Frankly I find the 1vX playstyle deeply boring for anything more than a short spell. I also find it quite immersion breaking, cos 1 player running around a stone for 10 mins chassed by 6 or more people who cant kill them, is just silly. But each to their own.
I like to break those up
A nice bow gank followed by bow ulti, executed in quick succession, at a point when the 1vXer drops lower on health, as they do periodically before regaining quickly... but you time it right, its good bye 1vXer and its incredibly satisfying

Re: 1vX - How? (PvP)
Simple: Heavy Armor + Proc Sets + Malacath Band of Cheese + extra sauce necro or warden overtuned classes.
Yes, this is pvp nowadays.

Agreed. Give it pants like the other costume, or even a skirt. What even is this flap?Dark Passion Regalia looks great that crotch flap is a no for me total ruins that outfit.
Re: What NPC do you like?
Rigurt the Brash.
I can't help it, everytime I see him appear in another chapter/dlc I just have to chuckle at the mishaps we've gone through and I go ahead and help him through his next poorly planned (but well intentioned) scheme. Seeing him pop up every so often as I go world traveling always brings a smile to my face.
Otherwise I'd say Naryu Virian. (I know I know, everyone seems to like her...) But she was the first npc I met (my first character started with the morrowind training scenario) so we had a special connection from the start, and helping her (and vice versa) throughout the quests has been very fun. That and I love her attitude towards life in general.

Yes, winning a 5v1 is definetly boring cause its super easy and not a challange at all.
But sniping and dropping a bow ult on someone that is already fighting outnumbered is clearly a satisfying tactic.
..... The attitude of some ppl.
@Artorias24 Indeed, the attitude of some people...
You do you.
I passed no comment on skill requirements for either play style. I merely commented that running around and around a rock with a ton of health, resistances and self buffing/healing, until your ulti is ready and your stacks are up so you can burst one of the X down, that just doesnt appeal to me. Its boring and looks like a Benny Hill skit.
I find killing a 1vX player, particularly via bow gank playstyle, incredibly satisfying, thanks
Guild Store Search Improvements for Consumables
1. Move "Recipe already known" to the top of the details so it is easier to tell which ones are known without having to scroll down to the bottom of each one - this would be consistent with Motifs
2. Allow a filter to search for only unknown consumables

Re: ZOS: URGENT PLEA ABOUT ABUSIVE COMMENTS on ZONE CHAT ...extremely upsetting.
I've already said too much in this thread, I'm afraid, but that seems important: with all said above we should most definitely still strive to create environment that is comfortable and enjoyable for caring and respectful people like you instead of forcing them to "grow thicker skin".wishlist14 wrote: »Im not going to change myself because im an empathic and caring and respectful person.
Re: Well if nothing else works for lag, Test 0 remove grouping from Cyrodiil could fix a lot of it.
Thevampirenight wrote: »As technically it already did, sometime back people couldn't group in Cyrodiil at all and hence why I'm calling it Test 0. During this time frame people lost the ability to group up with their groupies and friends in Cyrodiil. But it also had an actual impact too as it improved performance in the pvp zone significantly as I remember seeing the forum threads about this. Though this isn't something I personally want to see them do except as a last resort.
I do think the current grouping system as it is isn't the greatest. I noticed one time when in a group compared to not of just like 3 or four people. My game started lagging bad and one could hardly move because of it. This was a while back, we know for sure that certain group dynamics can and will have an impact on performance. Question is how impactful is grouping in general on performance.
Cyrodiil is generally composed of two types of groups. Very well put together groups where people have certain roles and they are more like a trained team of people that are organized and well put together. Also known as Ballgroups have the biggest impact. Then you have large groups of people what people call a zerg where people just come together and just follow the leader or others in the group as you seige castles and take down doors. Cyrodiil has been for the most part all about group fights, and would possibly be the most painful then any of the tests they are currently doing and would likely make people more upset then anything if they were to do this. If they were to add in no grouping in Cyrodiil.
If grouping is a factor in the bad performance, what do you guys want to see done about it? How would you want them to fix it? Because grouping should remain in some form that is my take, I feel as its a big massive pvp zone and its great to play with your friends there. If it is the root cause of the issue then how do you want to see them address it to reduce the impact? Or fix the performance issues and share your ideas of how it could be fixed?
Getting rid of groups in Cyrodil would definitely be a case of the cure being worse than the disease. That's assuming it did anything, which I doubt.
So long as the zone is crowded it's going to lag whether they are officially grouped together or not.
There is only way to fix this - and that's to upgrade their servers. That or maybe reduce the population cap dramatically and make more campaigns.
