I hated alot of things about the new patch....but I'm pretty sure everyone on this forum, Reddit, Tamriel Foundry and ZOS headquarters knows who I am and what I hated. So I figured I would post about the two things I enjoyed testing in 1.6 :

The new Flames of Oblivion is actually my new favorite ability. The animations are awesome.
being able to weapon swap on my horse and cast Rapid without dismounting is cool.

I'm not forgeting how angry I am with what 1.6 did to alot of things. I'm just tired of being negative. What else did you guys like about 1.6. No I didn't drink any koolaid either.

    - The new animations are freaking AMAZING

    - I love the Champion System, great progressive system. Of course if you don't grind it (which you shouldn't - who grinds in a horizontal progression anyway?)

    - I love absolutely everything about the Justice System. It's simply put perfect, I can't think of 1 MMO with a decent one. However ESO's JS is on very HIGH quality. I didn't expect it to be that good, I'm very impressed. Also I'm generally never a "thief" or "murderer" in games, can't resist this time :wink: JS is giving me 100s of hours of "content", getting all those achievements will take heck of a lot of time.

    - Class balance on 1.6 looks the best it has ever been. That is always welcome.

    - Provisioning Overhaul was as well done very well. I'm not a big fan of this profession, this time around I might decide to level it to max though. Looks in a way better state and much more interesting + rewarding.


    I can say so far that this is by far the best Update I've had the pleasure to test on the PTS. Zones like Craglorn are nice (mostly if it was a solo zone), but the systems are what really make a game. You can't just keep putting content on top of each other with outdated / subpar systems (like what world of warcraft is doing). So I'll go ahead and say that the systems are much more important than content, especially when the replayabilty of the justice system is much higher than the one of Craglorn. What I'm saying most people will get much more out of it this way, great systems make great games.
