Can we get a conformation that Vet levels are gone for next DLC ... hell or even later and when?

If all content (past 1-50) scaled just like Orsinium does I would sub for live. As of now, not a threat ... just reality, I am gone this month when my sub runs out. Going where I want when I want keeps me in game. Tired of the hamster wheel.

Judging from your trollish comment there I suppose you would not be upset if what you worked so hard for in IC was immediately trumped due to raising the VR cap? No one QQed about anything, Zenimax merely recognizes the inconvenience of the fact.

As for raising the VR cap, perhaps they can enlighten us on the next live? They may wait a couple DLCs to let things stick around though.

I think herein lies the problem... It's a GAME There is no hard work... If someone thinks it's hard work to play a game, there are definitely other problems in their life that cannot be addressed in a GAME forum....

'There are none so trollish as those who play the 'troll' card...'--a very wise person, probably me....

I would like a conf(o/i)rmation in this thread too. There are tons of rumors, but can't find any official statement about this.

The fact of the matter is, there is nothing stopping anyone from ZOS raising level cap whether its the next DLC or the one after that. We will just have to deal with it if you really enjoy the game. It will have to be raised one day or the max level players will complain. Neither of us can win either way.

Rich Lambert posted that they are not raising the level cap.

No hidden meaning. No if or but. They are not raising the level cap.

Vet rank removal has been planned for after Orsinium. I would expect that the removal of all vet ranks will coincide with the release of the thieves guild DLC.

is there even verification to the thieves guild coming out or is this just a rumor?

It has been confirmed as the next DLC in the release thing about Orsinium on the main page.

Then after that, it's the Dark Brotherhood and the Gold Coast of Cyrodiil (including Anvil and Kvatch.) confirmed in an interview with Matt Firor.

I feel like the majority of people who are now suddenly for the veteran rank system, want to watch this game burn to the ground.

@ZOS_RichLambert ,
Good news, thanks
but the real question for many of us is: can we start making gold armor sets at Vet 16, or do we go to max purple and save our gold tempers for a next Vet level after the Thieves Guild?

Could you give us guidance on that question?

So @ZOS_RichLambert, are we to take away from your statement that ZOS currently have no plans whatsoever of increasing the VR ever again? Replying to someone saying "Maybe after?" with "We're not doing it." implies it won't be increased again before VR removal next year.

I understand nothing is concrete, but could you possibly say whether you plan to increase VR at all before removal next year? This means I will actually spend the time to craft legendary gear for my alts.

Why can't you just keep the veteran ranks, but reduce the experience needed to level them; just like what you did for champion points? Is the crown store really worth more people leaving? You can spend all these resources on developing more content, and fixing other issues rather than having to spend resources trying to find a solution to removing the veteran ranks.

First they're gonna remove the VR Ranks...

... then they get replaced/renamed by Champion Ranks...

...then the cap gets raised to Champion Rank 18

Great
Glad we have official responses

Isn't that statement a bit limiting? Shouldn't it be something more along the lines of: We will not be increasing the VR level cap further as we plan to remove VRs in the near future? Your statement makes it pretty clear that you have not decided how to handle the level cap beyond the Thieves Guild nor have any firm plans to remove VRs. That's sad considering what you had previously told this community.

NO Vet level cap raise.

And yet he never stated that it would not be increased in the future, only that it would not come with the Thieves Guild. I'm honestly not trying to read into anything but fool me twice...

Hmm.. First word "stop", has four letters, increment it by its index using the non-zero index system, which is 1, so we get 5. The fifth word of the above sentence is "hidden", which has the same amount of letters as the word "lacing". What do "hidden" and "lacing" have in common? OF COURSE, the Hidden Lacing Knot technique! OK, so words that are familiar with hidden would be silent, or secret, or.. yes.. silent. The "K" in Knot is silent, so we remove it and get the word "not".
Now once we remove it, we remove the entire word from the sentence considering there is no such thing now as "Hidden Not". Let's see what we're left with

They'll probably remove Vet ranks, make level cap 50, and convert all V16 gear and below into lvl 49 gear.

If you play eso for a while, you know you should just enjoy every new set right away because after the next patch it will be useless, that way you can at least have some months with your new gear. Sitting on the fence will mean you run around in purple gear all the time.

And another tip, go on the pts if you want to test gear and try it out, that saves a lot of gold mats. Most people probably make 2 or 3 sets before they agree on what work fot their playstyle. I know i wasted a lot of gold upgrading sets i only used for a week or two weeks. ( but this is part of the fun for a lot of people)

MrDerrikk

@Alucardo
How long did you take to make those connections? Or are you so used to ZOS's hidden meaning that you could decipher it in minutes?

They already wanted to release v18 with orsinium, but did not bc of too much QQ. It will come 100% with the next DLC.

But remember, they will remove Vet ranks eventually at some point

Anyone making a legitimate criticism is almost always met with the 'Youre QQing' accusation. Its actually pretty tiring and at this point I dont even feel the need to try and share feedback with the community or ZOS because of how toxic this forum is. ZOS will eventually push me to put down the game for good and theyll never know why since they cant be bothered to actually properly moderate this forum.
