ESO Live - Ask Us Anything!

Geemarc

Why are Sigils of a Imperial Retreat trophies?

Why can't we transfer them between characters?

Mojmir

The title say ask us anything,when will you answer something?

Tomato

You can only nerf wrecking blow when you fix the DK class!

newtinmpls

The title of this thread is "ask anything"

So....

to all the folks who work at ZoS:

How many hours have you played ESO in the past week?

Forestd16b14_ESO

When are you guys gonna fix crafting? This whole story about making the best gear in the game take time to get is silly cause players are able to get dropped and TVS VR16 gear left and right in no time at all but takes hours to days to weeks of farming for materials to CRAFT 1 piece of VR16 gear.

They answer during episodes of ESO Live. That's why the title says "ESO Live".

There seems to be a glitch where the dragon Knights talons skill isn't working. The animation for it doesn't work and nearly 70%of the time the effect of the spell doesn't work either. I have great internet and all other skills work fine but this one skills almost never works. Please explain ?

Lokryn

Are there any plans to add new Vampire abilities?

Arkadius

Are you ever going to readd guild store access to Cyrodiil bankers? And why was it removed at all?

With the release of the Imperial City. you used the Imperial Dragon Banner as map pins on the map of Cyrodiil to indicate the entrances to the Imperial City Sewers. I have been wondering for a while why we don't see the banner anywhere else in the game. It seems the Empire only uses the shape of the red diamond as their symbol. Is there a specific reason for this?
The Dragon Banner is probably the most iconic symbol of The Elder Scrolls, and I'd like to see it much more often in the game if possible.

I can provide insight on this before ESO live will feel the need!

The Empire of Alessia, the First Empire (Long before this time period), was marked by the Covenant between Saint Alessia and Akatosh by the Amulet of Kings. This amulet, the symbol of her authority soon became the shining symbol of Imperial rule all across the Empire and continuing even into the Empire of Reman, and to the present (2E 586).Lore on the Amulet of Kings.
This is the current symbol of the Empire, and of Imperials, the 'Red Diamond'.

Fast forward a couple hundred years and something else happens. Tiber Septim unites Tamriel under his rule, and claims his right of Divine rule with the Amulet of Kings and the Dragonfires. Chief along his conquests, he had employed under him a Dragon named Nafaalilargus, a strikingly blood red Dragon that imposed quite an image. This dragon merged culturally with the Imperial Diamond as a symbol of power becoming the Imperial Dragon Diamond you see on that picture. It is a symbol of Tiber Septim's Empire, not one of our Era.
Lore on Nafaalilargus, the Dragon.
Lore of the Empires Across Time.




... As to why they chose it for the Imperial Sewers Picture, I suppose they just hoped nobody would notice that it's misplaced in this time period....

1. When are you guys going to make crown store items account wide instead of server wide? I mean why do the crowns share and ESO plus share but not the actual item's? Because I know a couple people like me who have swapped from Eu server to Na server and had to re buy there items off the crown store and now with dlc more important then ever! And especially with the limited time only mounts that you can't get but have on opposite server...

2. When will the guild traders be fi xed to show listing prices BEFORE you actually click to buy and get the warning message stating the prices, because of this glitch we were unable to retain our guild trader this week!

Oooh busted! L-L-L-L-Lorebreaker. Sort them out Lawrence!

Some more questions:

1. Any plans to make Ancient Nordic a style?
2. Can we ever hope to expect a way to keep trees from blocking our view? An option to fade the leaves at least whenever they are between the player and the camera would be nice...
3. Any plans to add a 4th Skill Line to each class? I'm sure this would make many people happy!
4. Is there anything in this game that can be permanently missed by a single character if not obtained at a specific point in the character's game and/or level progression?
5. Any chance we can see some achievements for collecting the various stolen treasures we find and fence/launder?

Once the japanese version is released, will we be able to play with the japanese audio while keeping the english/french/german interface and texts ? The japanese voice actors are awesome, it would be great !

dudenamedchris

Adding another skill line to each class would be awesome. Sorcerers are supposed to be able to control fire ice and lightning not not just one element. Summoning is fine but I feel like the other skill lines are mandatory for a sorcerer. Night blades in my opinion should be able to constantly stay stealthed. Dragon Knights should have a berserker class and more control over the thuum in my opinion.

Now that Fall is upon us, a few questions...

What are the four seasons called in Tamriel? What are Fall celebrations?

Does ZOS have something special planned for 'Halloween'?

gurneyhalleck00

Why is the lag and disconnection increased since IC released.

dunk-420b16_ESO

Are there any plans to add new classes to eso in the future?

Ghrimn

@randolphbenoit

What are the four seasons called in Tamriel?

The Four Seasons are Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn.

What are Fall celebrations?

These are the Autumn Events:

Hearth Fire (September)

• Tales and Tallows, Day 3: Men and women do not speak all day long for fear that the evil spirits of the dead will enter their bodies.
• Nocturnal's Summoning Day, Day 8.
• Children's Day, Day 19: A celebration of youth.

Frost Fall (October)

• Malacath's Summoning Day, Day 8.
• Witches Festival, Day 13: When the forces of sorcery and religion clash. Wizards meet in the wilderness outside, and the creatures created or summoned there may plague Tamriel for eons. Most wise men choose not to wander during this day. It's also Mephala's Summoning Day.

Sun's Dusk (November)

• Boethiah's Summoning Day, Day 2.
• Moon Festival, Day 8: A joyous holiday in honor of Masser & Secunda.
• Warriors Festival, Day 20: Great social event featuring competitive contests of martial skill. All weapons are half price. It's also Mehrunes Dagon's Summoning Day.

Does ZOS have something special planned for 'Halloween'?

Unfortunately Yes:

dudenamedchris

Why aren't talons skill working ?

Greath

Can you add a "Trophy" tap under the other category in the guild trader?

Cazzy

Are there an plans to release a Pony Guar pet on consoles?

Akrasjel

Will you be developing guild functionality ?

terrordactyl1971

When will ZOS cave in to all of the requests for text chat on console?

Kungfu

Is there any chance of removing "Bind on Pickup" in the future to increase in-game market activity & "gold sinks"?

Honestly market activity is 1 of the highest things in the game. At least on PS4 NA Aldmeri it is.

Keepercraft

#1 When will be shield dye option?
#2 Cyrodil PvP dying, do you working at that?

This is no doubt a really tired subject asked before, but here goes one more time. Maybe some day some one there will provide an answer:

There is a thread under Developer Discussion titled "Templar Update." It was originally posted in June of 2014.

Since then? 44k views, 479 replies.

There are a grand total of four staff comments in the thread, all from June 2014.

There are umpteen other threads like it in the section.

WHY are these threads kept under "Developer Discussion" when there is NEVER any developer discussion IN them?

Even down and out, cheap-skate Turbine STILL manages to have GAME DEVELOPERS (not forum mods) chime in on the LoTRO Official Forums Class sections (another subject some of us have repeatedly asked for --- class sections --- and yet been told in no uncertain terms we will NOT ever get them here...).

Could we please for the love of Tamriel at least get some kind of acknowledgment at minimum - if we cannot get an actual update -- to the known issues our various classes are reporting in these threads as still problematic?

That particular post was intended inform people of and then to reflect upon an update on PC back in the middle of last year and was slowly kept alive by people posting what they think needs to be done. People are always posting their thoughts on how good or bad classes are and demanding buffs or nerfs. If Zenimax spent all their time responding to and then buffing or nerfing based on class feedback they'd never get anything done period because people are always wanting class buffs and/or nerfs. No one will ever settle until their class is better than the others which will prompt others to do the same so it's just an endless cycle.

You have missed the point entirely.
