Vitrified soul drops must still be bugged. If I kill 20 enemies and none of them drop any souls and only 2 drop gold, which is much worse than overland drops normally are, something can't be correct. It's like the soul drops are just missing.

Another rather funny bug is that the Meridian Lens - the thing that we're supposed to improve by collecting souls - doesn't get progressed with finishing quests, but the stages are inverted. For every soul quest we finish, the whole things get more and more deconstructed

it was always garbage. Thats why eso has always been the least popular of all the big mmo's for a decade. Considering the franchise's potential they may have made some money but they havent really done well with it all things considered.

Is the event going to effect Ossien Cage at all?

Only the event specific content for Writhing Wall will be affected once the wall is breached. That includes the dailies and the lens, etc. None of the Western Solstice content will be affected and that includes Ossein Cage.

As a matter of fact, Ossein Cage is a good place to get Vitrified Souls for the event too.

@ZOS_Finn The previous years' chapter celebration events included double drops for the trial as something to reward the group-PvE crowd. The omission of trial double drops makes this event feel much worse than previous years' chapter events for this segment of the player base.

I'm not taking that two-hour test. At this point, class identity is nonexistent. While you can roleplay during quests, in PvE and PvP. I'd like to see one of you stream using only one class skills. I'm curious if you can find any identity and enjoyment there by dying 20 times per battlegrounds.

I wish the flying pets would land when you stop moving. I got the raven pet with a chapter pre-order (Gold Road possibly?) and if never occurred to me if wouldn't move like bird pets in other games which fly beside you then land when you stop.

I like it but rarely use it because the constant flapping is annoying and it's immersion breaking to have it hovering beside me when a real bird wouldn't do that.

That hides other players' pets when you are near craft tables or banks. That came with... High Isle, I believe?

Its very, very limited though. It hides them when the owner is using, or standing right beside a crafting table or bank, but if they're standing 1 step away their minions will show and those can be right on top of the bank or crafting station. It's better than nothing, but not by much.

Hi all. After investigating some user reports, we have confirmed that there are some instances where completing a Writhing Wall event crafting activity will result in you spending more materials than you receive in your rewards. This was not our intent and unfortunately this issue is not something we are able to hotfix. We have a bug in for the team to investigate and looking to see if there is an opportunity to fix this during U48 launch. We have added this update to our dev tracker.

I would actually advocate leaving them as they are. This way they act as a "mat sink" of sort. On the other hand, we are getting huge EXP from these quests. Things shouldn't just come for free, and I believe we're on the receiving end with these quests.

Many apologies, but that's absurd. It is right and good that folks playing an adventure game should expect to be rewarded for their successful adventures with prolific and delightfully sleek rewards, especially if those rewards are imaginary and effectively free. A "once-in-a-lifetime" event should, by default, reward once-in-a-lifetime rewards.

This. There are some wonderful bird non-combat pets in the game, but I just can’t use them because they don’t land. When I’m not moving they just stay there slapping their wings pathetically and unnaturally hovering in place and it’s so immersion breaking. It keeps me from buying more bird pets when they come out and it’s very disappointing. 😟

Many times when you see players trying to advocate for less rewards, you can trace it directly back to them wanting players to pull themselves up by their boot straps all the way to their guild trader so you can purchase the things they do happen to be selling. Not all. Many.

I have flying pets, so I obviously like them - that said, I do like the idea of having them land when you're idle or using benches/banks/merchants etc.
