Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
Where is the "Awoooo"... that was one of my favorite parts on the WW. Overall, it seems to be heading in the right direction but the Awoooo call is a linchpin for me, heal or no heal. Doesnt matter... Return the Awooooo

Female werewolves have missing/bugged audio, especially anything related to howling, growls, grunts, and other organic noises. Magic noises remain.

Tone policing is not a valid/logical argument. What he's saying is objectively true-beam builds are easier to play.

Re: Official Discussion Thread for "Tamriel Tomes Season Zero Developer Update"
Begging for Pitchforks is my new Rage Against the Machine cover band.just begging for pitchforks.
While I think the TP to gold conversion is the best short term solution, and thank you for that, I think all of Code's post on page Two is excellent. There is a ton of confusion around Tome Points, re-rolling, and the whole system. I see it in guild chat, in zone chat, and on discord.
Also, there are a significant number of people who play ESO who have never encountered a battle pass in a different game. That's neither good nor bad, but I think there's a fair bit of assumption about what players will Just Understand, and that is a big source of a lot of the confusion. Not all of it, but some.
Please run the written articles, plus the planned changes, past someone who has not used a battle pass before.
Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Housing Furnishing
Quick thing about the exterior of Star-Gazer's Vigil:
There's a hole in the rocks just off the path that is easy to fall in and short characters can't jump out, so you have to port out. Not a big deal, but maybe throw another boulder in that hole.

Re: Three-Sided Deathmatch
There also wasn't an MMR reset in the old format before 2020ish except maybe once a patch or so, seems to me like it never did one single time until 2020ish.
Those first years were by far the most competitive for me, but it came at the expense of queue times and having to hit accept 10 times per match.

Re: U50 Bug Reports for Combat Refresh: Werewolf
My friend noticed that the Feral Cruelty passive does not appear to be granting the increase to weapon and spell damage properly.
I tested and saw the same thing, brief clip below showing that my weapon and spell damage remained the same in werewolf form when I did not have any points in the passive as when I had two points in the passive. It does grant the increased weapon and spell damage when only 1 point is invested into the passive, interestingly enough. Also, two points in the passive is being tracked correctly in some way because the armor buff is still granted.

Re: U50 Feedback Thread for Class Mastery
I haven't experimented with all of the different classes yet but I already have some feedback about the interface itself. First off, not being able to even click on the class mastery skill line just because I'm subclassing is a huge handicap. If I want to check and compare stats I have to start writing things down and respecing my character just to look at it. Why can't it be like the subclassing UI where I can see all of it even if I'm not specced into it? Just have the skills greyed out.
Second point for the UI, for the passives that upgrade a specific other passive I think it would be nice to include that passive's tooltip information in the class mastery tooltip so I don't have to keep flipping back and forth to see what each one is just by the name.

Re: How is the new achievement sorting?
If you're talking about the summary page, then no you can't see 100% there for a dungeon or collection. Each dungeon now has its own page, though so you can see 100% for a specific dungeon on its own.spartaxoxo wrote: »The new achievement sorting looks exactly like the set collection menu! Alphabetical list, each dungeon is its own sub section. No more specific DLC categorization for dungeons (i.e. Wolfhunter/Scions of Ithelia/etc).
So, for argument's sake, let's pretend that I have completed 70% of all the dungeon achievements in the game. But I have 100%ed Wolf Hunter. Now I would just see 70% dungeons, and I can't 100% a specific dungeon collection anymore?

It's a nerf, but still powerful.
For PVE, every build has at minimum 32k resources or so, sometimes higher, especially with a group, so you just get a free, no nonsense, +20% w/s damage.
In PVP, if you built for Max Mag stacking for Hardened Ward like before subclassing, you're sitting at 22~28% w/s damage.
An average w/s damage/crit/proc build with 30k HP has around 22~25k resources, so 12~14% w/s damage. They should effectively have more raw w/s damage to scale in comparison to the Max Mag stacker, so it could be quite close in the end.
If you compare to the other class Masteries:
- Warden = 15% - great baseline, simple, no hoops, matches normal non Max Mag stacking Sorc multiplier
- Templar = 600 w/s damage - Sorc with +15% would need 4000 raw w/s damage to achieve the same result
- NB = 1~1250 w/s damage - x2 of Templar, but based on 1~100% HP
- Necro = 2-20% - Slightly higher than Warden, but requires build up
- Arcanist = 666 (based on ult) or 300 w/s damage (perma) - Weaker than Templar, same Sorc logic
So all things considered, Sorc's Mastery is equal, if not better to what I'm seeing on other classes, but it has no secondary effect like Max HP or crux, etc. I have no doubt the passive is still strong, I just wonder if it's enough in conjunction with Implosion to compete with some of the other 2x DPS Masteries available out there.
I spoke only on Sorcerer here since this thread is for Sorcerer. All of these passives mentioned are underpowered compared to the stats you get from subclassing.
Warden's 1650 spell damage for 6 status effects is powerful. (You did not mention it) This I consider truly potent and competitive, but like you said; this is not a no non-sense passive like Font of Power.
IMO, it isn't even about equalizing the stats acquired from subclassing but about the abilities. As there is basically no way to out-stat a class simply having bad abilities. And Sorcerer has mostly bad abilities.
No realistic amount of stats will ever overcome that, and, even if they could, would we really want Crystal Frags providing 10k Weapon Damage because that's what it takes to compete with subclassed DKs?
The roll-out of these passives drives home the point that classes without a decent backbone of abilities will never be competitive until their respective refresh fixes that issue with complete skill reworks a la the DK refresh.
