Re: U50 Bug Reports for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
On the trial dummy I accidentally hit the ultimate too early (since it's always flashing like it's ready now, which is a separate QoL issue) and "dropped form", except it didn't actually drop form; instead it put me into a sort of limbo where I was still transformed, still had my werewolf skill bar, but was unable to cast any abilities until I hit the ultimate again and "transformed" back. Unfortunately I'm not 100% on what happened prior to that as my focus was on the dummy and not the bewildering loss of control.

Re: Playing the Story Chronological order?
I prefer to play them in release order because that's how the devs 'developed' the game. However, with my new character, I'm going to do things a bit out of order... I honestly love to finish the MSQ but at the same time I hate it... because then it makes the aspect of Dark Anchors in the world seem stupid. Once we finish the MSQ, then 'to us' the Dark Anchors should no longer appear. But even then, it also changes the Molag Bal's voiceover and it just sounds stupid IMO. I mean, we beat him, his mechanism for the Dark Anchors have been destroyed, AND we closed his access to Nirn. YET... here we are... still fighting Dark Anchors all across Tamriel.
Re: Mevei Andros's voice actor?
Hello! Jess Nahikian is the voice of Mevei. Incredibly gifted indeed! I also really enjoyed their performance as Dacia Caro in Tel Dreloth.

Industrial-Scale Farming & Market Impact in IC
Hi @ZOS_Kevin and the Security Team,
I am writing to raise an alarm regarding a massive farming operation in the Imperial City that is currently destabilizing the alchemy economy on [Platform/Server].
This is not a case of "hardcore players" or standard multiboxing. This is a coordinated 2-person team (operating from a single physical location) that is cycling through a network of more than 10 separate accounts.
Observations of the Operation:
Continuous 24/7 Presence: By cycling through 10+ accounts, this group maintains a permanent presence in IC, farming Tel Var for hours before switching to "clean" accounts to run daily writs across their entire roster.
Economic Sabotage: The sheer volume of Alchemy parcels being opened and dumped is causing a total crash in reagent prices. Legitimate players who farm for their own gold can no longer compete with this level of industrial output.
Hardware/Detection Avoidance: They appear to be using a dedicated multi-console setup to bypass standard software-based bot detection, yet their rotations and behavior are as mechanical and predictable as any script.
I have already submitted a detailed ticket (260314-000634]) that lists the primary accounts involved and the specific times they transition between their "farming" and "writ" phases.
We need the security team to look into the common IP/hardware IDs and the massive gold transfers occurring between this specific web of accounts. This level of coordinated exploitation is harmful to the game's health and the integrity of the player market.

This whole discussion thread appears to be troll bait.
If we look closely, following your reasoning based exclusively on cold logic, it's also absurd that someone would spend real money to buy goods made of mere pixels, such as a hairstyle for a virtual doll, which is precisely what our characters are.
This type of game is completely based on appearance, on the pretense that these virtual pixels are real.
Of course, each of us knows what they really are, but we play with a sort of auto-suggestion, pretending they're real.
That's the fun; otherwise, if we always applied cold logic that only sees pixels, no one would have fun anymore.
Even children, when they play with toy cars or dolls, pretend that's reality... and that's how they have fun.
These are games for adults, but the principle is the same: you play by pretending it's reality, immersing yourself in the situation.
That's why the reasoning of those who want to apply cold logic is flawed.
We cannot apply logic only when it is convenient to justify an action, but we cannot apply it when we get excited about having purchased or obtained a virtual mount or a nice outfit for our characters.

If you consider carefully, I never blamed those who go killing critters in those areas. Everyone is free to play as they see fit. However, I strongly advised ZOS NOT to ENCOURAGE mass killings of innocent critters with events, quests, or challenges like these.
This was the purpose of my post.
Just to clarify.

Re: The critter massacre in the challenge zones
I think the point is that they're both reductive statements.
Re: The critter massacre in the challenge zones
I'm just skipping this one. It's made for an unpleasant experience IMO.
I'm also a bit hypersensitive to animal cruelty, even fictional depictions against pixils. I actively avoid killing non-aggressive animals and usually try to escape from aggressive wildlife unless I have no option due to a quest.
The level of sensitivity is on people like me and OP, so I'm just avoiding the area.
On top of that, I don't find killing 1000 overland mobs fun or a good use of life, so *shrug* No big loss.
