Now you have it, but instead of enjoying things being the way you wanted them, you prefer to go on complaining that it should have been done earlier. Never happy, huh ? Or just happy to complain.
I think the limit made sense but in practice it seems to be difficult to form groups with people of matching levels and matching roles so system is changed for more flexibilty and that's good.

But, have you heard anything else about Vet Levels being removed other than some nebulous statement made a few months ago? I have not heard anything concrete about that, but I don't listen to all the Podcasts either.
I have worked through in my head what would need to be done to remove VR Ranks and it's not just changing titles and mob strength. The entire Crafting system would need to be overhauled, the entire itemization system would need be overhauled, the quests would need to be over hauled (if they took this opportunity to open the zones too). But, more than likely the story progression will be the same even without the ranks. Although it can be said that the zone stories are stand alone with themselves, and the direction each story takes is contained within that zone. So, zones might be able to be opened up. But, that would mean that everyone would have their own scaling instance, and how hard would that be to get groups together for that? I know people want to get rid of or overhaul the VR Rankings, but the project is a bit daunting.
I also don't see how the CP system can replace the VR Ranks completely, but maybe somebody has an idea on that. Maybe we get a rank for every 10 CPs or something, but how different is that from VR Ranks? (grind wise)
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

ESO isn't a different game you know regardless of what platform you play it on, right? The UI was worsened further for the console ports but that's about it. EDIT: Oh and the graphics but that's kind of part of the bargain when going to consoles in the first place... SNES graphics compared to a high-end PC (not literally SNES but on a relative basis
... 4k gsync 60hz at 59fps 100% of the time with zero input lag + much higher resolution textures and model details, pumped up shaders and lighting effects, etc. for the win 
). Edited by Attorneyatlawl on June 1, 2015 8:14PM-First-Wave Closed Beta Tester of the Psijic Order, aka the 0.016 percent.

Congratulations. Not everybody is so fortunate. Some people never experience a single glitch through the entire span of time they've played, some people get a new one every week. Doesn't change the fact they've patched it half a dozen times if not more.

✭Before patch 1.6 all vet levels were classed as L50, so a V1 and a V14 where both classed as really L50 and therefore within 5 levels of each other and they got exp and full loot.
After patch 1.6, they where classed as 13 levels different and stopped getting full exp and full loot (unless you did a min of 8% of the total damage to the mob)
Now its back to the way it was before, so you no longer have to do a min of 8% total damage to get the exp and loot0 -

Now its back to the way it was before, so you no longer have to do a min of 8% total damage to get the exp and loot
Wait a moment... does that mean that V1 - V14 could still group with a level 45 and still get xp?
Here's ultimately where I am going with this:
Recently a bunch of of guildies and I were discussing a dungeon crawl somewhere.
The group comprised of 2 - V1 chars, a level 45 and a level 40.
Everyone was arguing over who would and would not get experience.
I tried to explain that if the level 45 was group leader and started a dungeon, all people would be within 5 levels of the mobs that spawn in the dungeon and thus get xp and loot.
Am I correct?
Granted if I am right, the V1 players wouldn't get much xp.. but they would get credit for the dungeon completion and any associated skill points/achievements etc.
Comments please?0
