REAL PvP Fixes inbound???

FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS Alliance War General



A problem was fixed that could crash through your client during fighting in Cyrodiil.
A problem was fixed, the status of castles and the scrolls of the ancients did not save properly in a crash through the Cyrodiil.
A problem was fixed that by which the doors of castles could not be used.



Could it be? Did they really? Fix it????


Now discuss you minions!

Arkath

Eh, well. It's nice that they've made the attempt. But like so many "Hey guys, we fixed this broken stuff" before, I'll believe it when I see it. Because more often than not, it doesn't happen.

bitaken

Fingers crossed - expecting mild improvements if any.

Braidas

someone inform BRAIDAS if the crashing has been stopped or at least mitigated

SeltzerDuke

At the same time, the resto staff passive which increased damage scaled by your health has been changed to magicka restore. Life has been made tougher for those resto-wielding sorcs. If I squint my eyes really hard I can force a tear or two over this.

(Although another thread about this suggests that testing shows the nerf hasn't actually taken place in-game, and the tooltip hasn't even been updated, yet another instance of patch notes being filed in the fiction section. I haven't logged in yet to confirm this for myself.

Edited to add:
Yeah, damage still ups by 10% w/ resto equipped. Interestingly, the tooltip wording says "also causes complete heavy attacks to restore 30% magicka", which, WHAT. The "also" certainly suggests both effects are intended, not one in place of the other. The buff that claimed to be a nerf.)

Nidwin

Probably multiple reasons for the crashes as I experienced three different types of them.

If they're linked to the same issue it should be much better after the patch, otherwise another list of insulting and completely useless threads incoming soon.

Fingers crossed.

Glantris

finally, the implementation of doorknobs is upon us.

Can you try a repair/check of your code and let us know?
This often resolves issues after a patch

fix = break

nerf = buff

buff = nerf

hope = disappointment

eso = rage

Won't come to EU until tomorrow apparently, for those of us playing there.

Well you have to take the three strike policy when it comes to ZoS fixes.

They will tell you it's being fixed three times. The first two are about 1-2 months apart and NEVER work. Usually they are actually worsening the problem through a hotfix of failed coding and lack of testing.

Finally on the third try someone prolly gets threatened to get fired and it works.

So considering this is strike 3 on most of those I'd say it's safe to say it will be mitigated at the worst case.


Until 1.5 of course where this viscous cycle is repeated.

I can see it now --

1.5.3

"Resolved a bug that causes user's motherboards to short out when Cyrodiil is entered."

you sure it will take them until 1.5.3 to mess up that good? i figured it would happen far before then.

Forestd16b14_ESO

I be happy if they fix armor abuse and block casting. But if they do fix a lot to all the bugs I be able to die happily in alliance war knowing there playing the right way instead of spamming broken skills and bugs.

Asgari

shield stacking with harness magicka is the least of my concerns. I'd much rather be able to play for more than 10min at a time with someone in the group crashing.

Columba

I am happy they have fixed the crashing. Now please do something about the perma invulnerability exploit.

Cody

No. I encountered a bugged postern door last night while defending Sejanus from the AD.

I myself would rather see the "block casting" issue fixed first. at least the damage shield/harnass magicka users actually fight you.

As a sorc i wasnt aware recently that harness magicka returned the magicka from hits on other shields you have up. Being able to hide it behind hardened ward which is 757 and healing ward gives you like full magicka for a long time.

Well not dying often without that cheese makes me feel pretty damn good about my build with 0 impen as well.

we need some dispel spells........ would be interesting... though im sure they would make things like damage shields utterly unusable in PvP, as players would spam them like crazy.
