Maintenance for the week of October 5:
• [COMPLETE] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – October 8, 8:00AM EDT (12:00 UTC) – 12:00PM EDT (16:00 UTC)
So what did we found out concerning 1.6 and Tamriel Unlimited and +?
- New b2p system will likely bring in loads of new gamers, who did not want to support current subscription model, for whatever reason
*
- loads of combat fixes/adjustments e.g. impenetrable, sharpened, stealth,
*
- new DLC e.g. Wrothgar(group?), Orsinium(solo)
*
- Crown shop with 'convenience items' e.g. costumes, horses, vanity pets, basic potions,
*
- AOE 6 targets get secondary effect(burn, slow etc)+100% dmg, other targets reduced dmg, no secondary effect
*
- khajiits might (or not) have longer tails with ESO plus accounts

*
- player quality of life improvements e.g. inventory filtering, option to turn off notifications,
*
- DLC will be available in Crown shop for subscribers, DLC will be purchasable for Crown points
*
- Crossdressing( e.g. wedding dress on male chars) will still be possible
*
- spellcrafting(awesome)
*
- no cross platform accounts, sadly
*
- ultimate costs revalued for balance
*
- some skill tweaks towards balance( crystal shards less cast time, daedric mines and curse increased dmg, reflective scales less projectiles reflected,
*
- new mount skill in player instead of each horse
*
- centered camera view in 3rd person
*
- b2p base game will be 1.6 with champion system up to 4th stage(included)needs confirmation
*
- DLC will be independent of each other, no requirement to own previous future versions, you could even skip future DLC(not recommended) to jump to other future DLCs ;D
*
- possible character name/gender/appearance changes in near/far future
*
- focus on game stability/latency in Cyrodiil
*
- no addons for consoles but popular current addon functions added to UI
*
- +10% dropped gold & XP for ESO+ accounts
*
- ESO PC & Xbox & PS same as NA & EU will all be alternative ESO universes, character transfers will be possible(1 time) but no butterfly effect can happen, rest assured

*
- only digital items in Crown Shop
*
- longer time between updates(4 platforms instead of just 2)
*
- increased delves, reduced phasing in quests, less ppl in same dungeons
*
- possibly cyrodiil buffs will be only available in cyrodiil
*
- Imperial Edition in Crown store
*
- possible lower population caps in cyrodiil
*
- ''free'' minor updates outside DLC for bug fixes, balancing etc
*
- block casting revamp in near future
*
- bear mounts ''confirmed''
*
- new racial motifs from new areas(including jason leavey hair and beard motif, go figure)
*
- new battlegrounds/arenas e.g. kill the emperor, capture scroll
*
- guild tabards might have seperate slot from costumes
*
- horses will be stripped(no animals will be hurt in the process, maybe except khajiits) off stats, and made equal
