The new werewolf model and update is amazing! Thank you zos
I was skeptical of the model at first when it was shown with the A-pose last week, but seeing it in-game, I have no complaints anymore. Everything looks and feels so good to use. My only feedback so far is that some of the kill moves feel janky when returning to the default idle animation. The glow markings were unexpected, but I actually do like them. I've seen mixed feelings on them and perhaps an optional skill style to tone it down similar to what was just done with molten armaments.

Re: Dk questionable change
It was only added last minute during the PTS as a bandaid since pure DK wasn't performing as well as they hoped. It was purposely inflated as per their notes as a stop gap until they figured out a better solution. The implementation brought about concerns as to how exactly it improves pure DK when it only required base DK, aka, people were still subclassing which defeats the purpose of the class refresh. It also disproportionately gave Ardent Flame much more power than Earthen Heart or Draconic Power despite the design intent shifting to making all 3 lines good for all roles. Suffice it to say, everyone knew it wasn't going to stay long term.
After U49, Gilliam during the dev stream said he had been working on the Masteries for 3 weeks straight which puts it shortly after the implementation of the DK damage done whip changes.
Stands to reason if it was inflated and considered temporary, added last minute, intended to promote pure classing, and functionally has a worse implementation than that of what Class Masteries do, it was always intended to be replaced.
Whip and Lash are the strongest spammables in the game right now, they don't need the damage done multipliers to compete.
If you were subclassing, sorry, but yeah you're losing some power, that's intended long term.
If you were pure classing, you'll more than make up for it via Inexorable Descent's +10% damage done and Wildfire Embers unique stacking dot.

Re: OK. Just... why?
As usual, agree with @xencthlu 's comment xD
And really, everyone here. It is just a pain, both the mobs and the mats. I'd suppose only certain traders would disagree.
I'd only add that the mats-in-dungeon thing would highly depend on which dungeon and how many guaranteed mats, because I really don't want any rehash, ever, of Mora's glass eyeballs in Scrivener's Hall. One of the most annoying things they've ever done regarding materials, helped only by the fact that they're now also attainable by chance via IA... another dungeon, and endless at that -_- I don't really want to do either.
And yes, it would be AMAZING if they offered a significant amount of furnishing mats via Tomes!
Like 1 unlock granting several stacks would actually make me interested in getting to the latter pages, vs just XP scrolls or cosmetics I don't care about. I'd hope it'd be in the free tier, otherwise it'd lean into P2W when it comes to "competitive housing" (lol, but yes that is a thing).

Re: Werewolf Update From The Combat Refresh Team
So, ran around some on pts, and here's my feedback. The werewolf looks great, the sounds could use some tweaking, particularly the heal sometimes didn't seem to make any sound, but the new alternative to sneaking is amazing since you can sprint while it's active, making the following brutal finishers very satisfying to chain together. That had me laughing more than it should have, though I remember doing the same in Skyrim with a first person werewolf mod, so maybe that's just me. The timer seemed especially forgiving in overland, though time will tell how it handles fights in dungeons, but the fact that it is such a cheap ultimate and you can easily build into ulti regen, I think the whole 'won't drop form when someone has to do something in group' is worth the trade-off. All in all, I really liked what I saw, and I look forward to seeing this kind of stuff hit live. And the glowing, which I was worried about, still looks a little odd given the harsh edge, isn't nearly as distracting as I thought, if anything, when I used a wayshrine to teleport and the markings vanished, the werewolf looked a little bare without them.

Re: Overland Content Feedback Thread
Very quick test from PTS.
Master difficulty is ok. At 20k armor you get spike damage from trash mobs. Still can quick kill them even with PTS default gear.
Vestige difficulty: spike damage is... "spiky". Need close to resist cap, major/minor Protection etc etc. Manageable at least fighting against 3 mobs. Very good difficulty if not hurry. Reminds me of typical single-player game on very high difficulty level.

Trial Dummy Buff Change - Intentional or Not?
So I've double checked this compared to live, but thought others should know that currently the Trial Dummy, Iron Atronach is now giving Major Savagery, Major Prophecy, Major Brutality, and Major Sorcerery. This is not the case on live. It was also not mentioned in the patch notes from today.
Would be good to know if this is intentional or not.

Re: Claim 99 Daily Logins in 97 Days
The response to my ticket was that I won't be refunded for the Tome Points I lost due to this bug.
In this game (and it's the only one I know like this), if a player loses currency due to a bug they didn't cause, it's not restored. Well done!
They also told me the bug is known and will be fixed next season.
Great! Now, for three months, I'll have to be careful not to be online during the daily changeover, otherwise I won't get the login reward.

Re: Playing the Story Chronological order?
Actually that is what I am currently doing! I even have a excel spreadsheet to help organize everything lol This link I use pretty often. It has every DLC and chapter in order of release date: https://eso-hub.com/en/dlc
Alliance/ base game of course goes first, and concludes with the Cadwell's Gold quest (not sure which alliance you are so I dont know which alliance zones it will end for you). Before any DLC or chapters I always make sure to check to see if they require a prologue quest and which NPC gives it to me. I dont like grabbing them from the store.
