ESO Live - Ask Us Anything!

Hiker

Hello. Could one of you fine learned folks settle an argument please? Can I purchase (with AP) a Marksman Great Sword from the Hew's Bane Random Box Vendor in Cyrodiil?

MrFish024

Can we get an update on the fixes to console (Xbox) trials?

Terror

Can we please talk about adding attributes, this 3 attribute system causes far too much in favor of imbalance and cookie-cutter play styles. Plus it limits customization drastically compared to a larger attribute system.

What do we, as players, need to do to get you to make fixing console trials a priority? I would REALLY like an answer to this.

t3hdubzy

For long term players should we expect more sweeping changes every so often to basic combat fundamentals?

we report the bugs in as much detail as possible. Ultimately they're responsible for fixing it. Honestly I think tht see bugs for vmol and put it on super low priority.

As a follow up to the chat today, it was nice to hear that the devs all do play the game. I'd like you to extend an invitation to you all to join a raid with either of my raid guilds Epic Synergy, or What Mechanics. Either on PTS or on Live. Would be great to complete some HM trials with you guys in the group.

Just saw ESO live episode, Rich is not contributing much to the show but simply saying here and there!

I feels bit of disappointing on @Wrobel comments that classes should do similar to each other instead they should offer unique play style and bring uniqueness to the group!

Just listened to @Wrobel for first time, seems like he knows things around combat..

Players just troll him across forum!

Thats the biggest problem with this update.

FoulSnowpaw

Where would we submit ideas? I mean productive ones like story lines, weapons , armor, architecture, etc.
Forums is usually nonproductive + I don't want random people stealing my ideas.
Directory please? I love TESO and would like to contribute some good suggestions. It could have gone anywhere else...

Thank You! Hope to hear from you soon.

ravenbirgil

Will you bring the morag tong as a playable guild.........please

Bristol_Lad

Question (Marrowind)

1) would this be free as part of the ESO plus membership?

2) would I be able to purchase the content using my crowns?

3) would I need ESO to play Marrowind or is this completely a new game?

Thank you and I look forward to your reply.

Kind regards,

Wir2ality

is it not like that, that you receive 1 key for normal or vet and 2 keys if you read the scroll in the room of the last boss and activate "hard" mode with it?

Previous dungeons (pre one tamriel) like Wayrest Sewers 2, Fungla Grotto 2 etc. have their own mechsnism. There is no scroll available.

@ZOS_GinaBruno what are some of your favorite lines from "the guys"? Wrobel has to have some good lines, and Weathers too.

Breaking news it is getting unplayable due huge lag in recent days just in case you don't bother to play your own product. *sarcasm*

Even PVE is lagging on console!

Here's a question your dlc clearly says PvP and pve in the crown store for imperial city . It is not both in fact it's very misleading and frankly it's false .There is no pve game play at all.Another thing there's a lot of ganking past several months there's constantly blues and yellows hanging in front of ebonheart pact base in the sewers not allowing others to enter or leave there base .I even went as far as contacting Microsoft spoke to a customer service rep they told me to report them so I have . It's very annoying and very rude there doing this to.not only upset the other players but to bullying them to leave the server I know this I Decided to make a dc character just to ease drop listen so I heard a great many things from there mouths quite frankly it's to much to even post here it's that bad .Its a day to day basis they come to the base constantly harassing the other players then there posting it on the Xbox YouTube page .So I even had a few swear and insult me by voice and by message I had to report players and block them too.So what am asking is your company responsibility to follow-up on these things .There has to be some changes as I said your dlc does not have a pve area aromatic PvP.

I can answer that, if you get one key instead of two, then you know that someone in your group had done something to fail the secondary objective for the entire team.

such examples include the following

• being instructed to defeat vila theran in fungal grotto II on veteran without entering the aura of the obsidian husk, you get two keys, someone walks into it to protect themselves, the group fails & you get one key.
• leaving four wraiths alive in crypt of hearts II until nerien'eth draws the ebony blade will net you two keys, if there is less than four, the group fails & gets one key.
• Leave three daedroth alive while killing High kinlord rilis to get 2 keys, less than three, you fail & you know the rest, only one key.

Always read the bonus challenge in each vet dungeon & tell the team accordingly that you are doing a , they will do what they can to complete the bonus challenge & everybody (In the group) wins, if they don't, then they are simply not fit to do group dungeons.

Make sure you do not have too many quests built up in your journal as the game has to read them & too many quests can ultimately slow your game down to a near stand still. (Something about the random access memory.)

I am not much of a PvP person, but I can say this: It is probably best to just change your campaign the next time to further avoid that particular campaign & do something else, it helps to remain silent than to be caught in a verbal crossfire between honest gamers & people who try to upset others through any means necessary. also, the PvE part of Imperial city is mostly the Daedric incursion & the craft stations as well as some other things that I do not quite know, as I said, I am not much of a PVP'er.

1. Why are you destroying that game? You're introducing very poor content quality to the game, for example dlcs like thieves guild, shadow of the hist. Morrowind propably will be a paywall, beacause you're forcing players to pay extra 40$ (same price like for the basic game) for content, which was already created in 2014 (battlegrounds, warden class). In my opinion you should introduce battlegrounds as free content, and allow people to buy Morrowind DLC for crowns (also it should be included in ESO PLUS) and propably allow people to unlock Warden class also with paying with CROWNS for that. Your're making patches with "fixes", which are bringing even more and more bugs. Streak bug for example was well-know on pts, before previous patch, but you didn't do anything with that before live release. You introduced new patch with that and you didn't see any problem with that at all. Same with hundreds of the other bugs.

2. What about your banhammer politics? You've banned people for cheat engine, then few days later unban them.... WHY? Now you're banning people without good reason, based only on what someone said. I reported many people for much worse reasons, and they didn't get banned.

Example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTJKcqFHhsg
I really liked that guy, and you banned him, because he was running with white robe and torch. Pathetic.

3. When will you introduce player friendly content? Give players chance to create a content, allow them to have influence on the world, how it changes etc. If you want to be best, you have to farm special items for hundreds of times doing the same dungeons or other things over and over. It's boring and it's not a good content. To be honest there is no good content for the end game. Quests are not that bad, but people can do them 2-3 times, after that they're boring, because you know them.

4. What about pvp? Will you introduce new points of interest? To many players are in the same places and it's causing a huge lag. By introducing new points like resources with a tower and flag nearby you will allow players to split more on the map.

5. You didn't reply to my previous post. LINK HERE: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/3792648#Comment_3792648

The entire Imperial City storyline is PvE content. And if there was actually no PvE gameplay at all, then nobody would ever have any Tel Var stones.

You have to be kidding me. Acts like this needed to be immediately stopped. Maybe a permaban is not the right response but acts of political extremism, racism and emulation of facist behaviours need to be addressed even when done on a joking manner, because the line between a bunch of teenagers fooling around and the promotion of hate is very thin.

Skipperowski

In my opinion, the permaban punishment for being dressed in white robe and for holding a torch is pathetic. Most of people in that game are dressed in robes, because they are mages, and yes, they can roleplay with a torch. Whatever. I do not understand that everywhere you see racism.

If there is no word violence, references to aggression or other pathologies, then there is nothing wrong with that.

Anyway, if i will stand afk with a torch in my hand in a pve zone, and if someone will kill npc (doesn't matter what race, because it's a stupid npc!!!!!!!) next to me, will zenimax permaban me? Because i'm wearing allways the robes (i'm mage OFC) and i will have a torch? It's pathetic, i can't belive that how people can be so blind and dumb. That is only a game and you can't compare it to real life, because nothing here is real!!! We can kill or assassinate a npc, without thinking about it even. We have a dark brotherhood sect and people can roleplay with a Dark Brotherhood costume and make some kind of rituals. Race of target doesn't matter because like i said, it's a game... Will i be racist if i will kill breton or aragonian? OFC NO!

Stop this *** with racism.

Djeriko

Still waiting on someone to say that "we are aware that this game gives you pink weapons and are working on being able to change your weapons to something else".... Aka weapon dyeing.

This is how you sound to me:
"They are only a bunch of jolly shaved head guys with their right arm up, I don't see any problem, people have arms. They don't have to be facist just because they behave like facists".

If you watch the video, you can judge by yourself. They were not roleplaying with robes. They were emulating a ritual, of course for the fun of it, but if you are so childish to make fun of the *** rituals, then face the consequences or a permaban. If this was to happen in person and I would witness it, don't doubt for a second I would interviene.

Skipperowski

I don't see anything wrong with that video. I'm watching it. They made a kowtow emote then they killed a NPC next to them. It could be a aragonian or breton, doesn't matter, because it's only a ingame race. You cannot compare it to real life. Drama is only because that npc had a black color of skin.... and i don't know why people in USA are freaking out, without reason. So maybe i shouldn't fight against redguards now, i shouldn't duel with them, because i will be a racist? LIKE I SAID IT"S A INGAME RACE AND YOU CANNOT COMPARE IT TO REAL LIFE.

altemriel

ZOS, could you please stop nerfing sets, which people spent hours of farming????!!!


Could you please buff the other sets instead?????



recent patch notes:

Burning Spellweave: Decreased the proc chance to 15% from 20%, and decreased the Spell Damage bonus to 525 from 600.

Developer Comments:

Burning Spellweave is currently one of the most dominant Magicka DPS sets in the game, which limits diversity in set gearing. We’ve slightly reduced the proc chance and Spell Damage it grants so it is more in-line with other Item Set options, and is only a more attractive option when you are using many Flame Damage attacks.

Yell in caps all you want but they were a bunch of people holding torches and in white robes emulating a *** rally. The issue is not the roleplay, is what they are emulating.
