Re: Massive meta shifts every 1.5 months is horrendous for the game and player base
Remember back in the day the game would be at a point where we had a huge variety of playstyles all viable and now its just oh DK build or Storm/animal/assassin or acuity+rally+mono build
Stamsorc - dizzy burst setup, or dw dot aoe setup
Magsorc - shieldsorc, overload burst, pets
stamplar - rollplar, dotplar, or potl burst
magplar - darkflare, block and burn, dotplar
stamblade - rollerblade, bowblade, 2h oneshot, bashblade
magblade - sap tank, invis speed burst, sustained range dots, vampdive
Magdk - Vamp brawler, double s&b, CCking, dotdk, defiledk
stamdk - dotdk, 2h brawler
stamden - 2h burst, reverb turn and burn, bleedden
Magden - offhealer, debuffer, frostden
I mean there was a time when all of these existed at once and were different playstyles being played. Now the game and combat is so homogenized into only one playstyle. IMO it really started going downhill after the elsweyr weapon skills reworks. S&B lost its damage playstyles entirely, dizzy became a generic spammable, dual wield fell out of favor, etc
EDIT: To add at the same time youd have like 10+ viable WD or max stat sets which built and played differently with skills and could be stronger or weaker on any given class.

What places do you think could use improvement with Class Mastery?
The masteries seem potent already. 20% weapon damage from Font of Power is already better than minor brutality/sorcery from sub-classing and probably worth about 6% out of the 12% critical damage you could get from a passive. Add another 8% to 10% raw damage that Static Reverberation has been adding to my parses, and that's gotta be close to what you get from 2 sub classes.
+20% weapon damage on a character with +30% weapon damage from M/m Brutality/Sorcery => +15% damage increase
+20% crit damage on a character with 60% crit chance and 105% crit damage => +7.36% damage increase
Font of Power is waaaaaaaay more worth than you think !

Yeah this is just werewolf getting their own beam skill, that's it.

Re: Please don't shut down Blackreach
PvE main here, why not just replace no-proc no-cp with Vengeance instead of proc/cp/no lock? I mean, Vengence feels like an evolution of no-proc/no-cp…
From what they have said, the plan is basically to remove every current Cyrodiil alternative besides Gray Host, including cp, no-cp and low level, and leave Vengeance as the only real replacement. That is why people are worried.
That is very likely to backfire. Gray Host queues will get even worse, more people will sit AFK at the gate waiting on friends, and the overall experience will suffer. If anything, the current primetime queues show that people are coming back and actively want to play Gray Host, so removing more options and expecting Vengeance alone to absorb that demand seems like a bad idea.

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
Do the updated skills accurately reflect the skill mechanics?
Yes
What changes to the Werewolf mode are you satisfied with?
Lowering the early-game cost of becoming a werewolf, optimizing the werewolf skill rotation.
What changes to the Werewolf mode are you dissatisfied with?
1.Maintaining the werewolf transformation is difficult in a solo situation. Currently, the only feasible solution I can think of is wearing Eye of the Grasp to maintain sufficient ultimate points.
2.The skill timer is faulty, making it difficult to monitor the duration of the ability.
Is there anything else you'd like to share regarding the changes to the Werewolf mode?
1. The Werewolf skill descriptions are too complex, and many skill texts are translated incorrectly.
2. The interaction between skills is still poor. For example, you need to deliberately use Roar/Ferocious Roar to obtain Blood Hunger, but Roar is still cumbersome to use and doesn't deal damage itself. This means the best way to use Claw Fury is to either forgo using Roar/Ferocious Roar altogether, or only use Roar/Ferocious Roar before the start of combat to obtain Blood Hunger.
3. In group PvE, if you choose to use Claw Fury, you will almost never use Gnash's two morphs in the rotation, which is equivalent to wasting a skill. As mentioned above, although the Werewolf skills have been optimized, the interaction between skills still feels poor.

The glowing markings depend on the morph:
The unmorphed version has no markings
Berserker is the red eyes and claw marks
and Pack Leader has a green Hircine logo on the chest
There are also the three base colors (black, white, and ashen) which currently work as they do normally where the morph dictates the fur color. However, the Stonefalls Dynamic encounter drops fragments (1, 5, 10 for black, ashen, white) that you can consume to unlock the colors as skill styles and then you get whichever color you choose.
The pics above are all with the Ashen style. Here are the other two:
