    @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom Do you guys have any future plans to update fishing? It hasn't changed much at all since release and it would be really cool if there was any type of change made to the fishing system,

    Would you please discuss Minor Magickasteal? The 1 second cool down, 400 flat gain, and non-overlapping nature between Elementail Drain and Force Siphon are all major nerfs to magicka sustain. Were these nerfs intentional to make regen more of a consideration in endgame builds and content? If not, can we expect any adjustments to bring it more in line with Live magicka regen levels?

    Suggestions: Make Force Siphon apply Major Magickasteal, so it can overlap with Elemental Drain. It ought to grant more due to its long cast time anyway. Remove the 1 second cool down, or allow seperate cool downs for each enemy effected. Barring all of this, increase the amount of magicka regen to 800-1000.

    I am so sorry for you console players, honestly....

    Would it be possible to have an option in your Friends List to add a note on yourself for your friends to see? For example, "Hey guys, away for the weekend" or similar that you yourself would add and everyone in your friends list would be able to see.

    Why don't we have the option to save our character's appearance in Character Create/Edit? Would be nice for a reroll. Quick click of the save button, roll a new character, load the character's appearance, and... done!

    Hi guys, I've just been wondering if this idea could ever come to be:

    The ability to purchase (possibly crown store) a replacement aesthetic for dodge roll. This could be a variety of things such as:

    - That dodge animation for those nimble human NPC's that jump and land behind you
    - The gargoyle like NPC (can't remember the name now) in White Gold Tower that disappears and appears elsewhere with a "portal like" animation
    - etc.

    Dear ZOS, while I totally love this game and despite of some bugs, you did an awesome job in my opinion.


    But I just can not understand, why you have not implemented trait-change and style-change ability already long time ago.
    It should be not so difficult to code that!!!


    Please allow it at least for master crafters!! Or for 8-trait crafters.


    Trait-change ability would solve all the RNG issues that people have.
    Style-change (motif-change) would make all the role-players happy, that say, they want to wear a useful dropped set, but the motif of it they do not like.



    Maybe let us do it like for changing a trait, the crafter would need half of the materials needed to craft the gear piece and 4 new trait stones, or something similar.


    But I bet most of the people would agree, that these two basic features should have been in the game from the start!
    I believe that every small utility like this will attract more people to the game!

    ZOS, this could not seriously go to live servers, you can not be serious about this.


    Please do not make the mistake, even without storage, now such totally low population caps for houses, you can not be serious about this!!!

    as I understand it, a house instance includes also the yard, not only the house interior, so seriously, 12 people should be the cap for the smallest house, not the large house!!!


    small: 12
    medium: 24
    large: 34
    manors: 45 minimum (guild meetings)

    Tbh, I don't think PC MMo's should have ever cross platformed into the consoles to begin with but that's me just causes more problems later on it seems.

    WEAPON DYES!

    So it's me again. I have a comment that's perfect since Homestead comes out soon.

    We will be able to craft furniture and even control where it's put in the home. We will be able to even put the objects in mid-air. That's awesome!

    STILL NOT ABLE TO CONTROL HOW DYES GO ON CERTAIN ARMORS THO! You also still have tons or armors with floating parts that aren't properly attached such as Heavy Outlaw armors have floating knee and elbow pads. Certain shields like Xivkin float too far away from the body so It looks like I'm holding it with telekinesis (cool idea tho but you guys can and have done better). other certain shields like Ancient Elf are positioned too high on the character models. You can control where furniture is and you tell me you can't move a shield down into a proper spot? See the above comment about telekinesis about this too.

    But back to dyes. Armor dyes and weapons dyes need to be out. red weapons are stale and plain now. EVERYONE IS BORED WITH THEM. It was cool at first but now everyone is sick of it. what's wrong with someone wanting a pink or green sword? The enchantments and poisons color them unnatural colors anyways! All I want is to have silver bladed swords. and maybe control what color the hilt and pommels are. Different color staves would be nice besides red. Onto ARMOR DYES! It took you over a year to bring shield dyes after the first armor dyes :neutral: But then you have newer sets of armor with improper colors to go with the dyes. I have posted pictures of this. Red dye on Glass/Mercenary/Thieves guild/Assassins etc heavy armor should not make PINK when it makes red on the older sets. This is just wrong.

    Also parts of certain sets have spots that can't be dyed. Why?

    So once again. WEAPON DYES!

    Can you touch on what your vision for stam going forward is as in are you happy with where they are at and perform in PvE and PvP. Or do you think there is from to change improve.

    Explain the nerf to trap damage. And the lack of buffs for StamPlar and stamBlade.

    In terms of Nightblade can we expect any type of rework it changes to the class like merciless resolve being recast on arrow shot or something of the like. It seems that you want Nightblades to be all about single target DPS. Not the best cleave AOE but the best or near the best pure single target. And that's fine but they could use a boost for that to be.

    Many of us have asked if not pleaded that Flames of Oblivion needs to go back to an AoE. We've asked for the DK abilities to all be reduced unless battle roar was updated as it's outdated due to no dynamic ultimate regen.

    In the long-awaited upgrades to the guild store interface, can you add the ability for sellers to give guildie discounts. This would encourage buying from within the guild, and possibly (depending on how you implemented it) reduce some people's tendency to try to sell in guild chat when there's a store available. Thanks.

    Great show guys. As someone who has been here since release on PC, the last few months have certainly been quieter from a communication perspective than usual. Since coming back from end of year break, I'm really loving the new energy around communicating with the community and now with ESO Live.

    I find too often in life people like to cry about what they don't like, but aren't so quick to sing praises for all the good things that they do like. Keep up with the good work!

    For the people in charge of environment design, or however their department is called officially,

    Why does Nirn appear to have incredibly calm oceans? Much of the explorable landmass borders the ocean and there's no chop, not a single wave to be found, even though the Ambiance actually has the sound of waves crashing on the shore. Is it not possible to include ocean water lapping and churning just off shore, or wave animations along the beaches?
