BEST WAY TO TELL YOUR COMMUNITY TO SHUT UP

Killer_Instinct

Ok.. I've seen a lot of comments about not raising theVR cap. I guess my question is, if they do eliminate VR then what will the leveling look like? I mean there are probably a lot of creative solutions... What would it be though?

1. Levels by content achievements?
2. Additional levels past 50?
3. Leveling my guild? I.e. Thieves, DB, etc. I guess this would be similar to #1

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

No post has ever been more deserving of an awesome. Ever.

ESO history tells us ZOS say one thing and do the opposite on a repeated basis, so this denial entirely discardable I'm afraid.

They also said vet ranks will NOT be raised with Orsinium. They followed through with that. So either stick being skeptical or actually be open that maybe, just maybe they are changing. Another poster said it best, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink".

Please raise the level cap on console. People on PC clearly cannot play games due to failing the arena for so long. Some of us like a new challenge / grind / farm. Let the so called pvp'ers spend all their evenings trying to get the last hit on someone and give the proper gamers something else to aim for, fix the Cyro lag and they'll stfu. Orsinium has been sweated out already. Serious Kudos on the zone bosses though. Got my arse handed to me trying to solo them. Makes the roaming horrors of IC seem like a mud crab.

SantieClaws

Santie is most very glad of this. Having finished much of her journey through toothy green big elf land and only just having hit VR13 this one is most appreciative of a little extra chance to catch up.

After a little nap of course ...

I'd have been really surprised by VR17/18 levels -- they keep saying that they want to remove Vet levels, so adding two more doesn't make too much sense.

Adding VR15 / VR16, on the other hand, *did* make sense IF the long term plan is to make VR levels regular levels, and adjust the level range to 1-65. Without VR15/16, it would have been 1-63, and with 17/18, it becomes 1-67, so having VR16 as a cap makes a lot more sense.

If they do add more VR levels in some DLC before getting rid of them, I'd suspect going to VR21 instead of just VR18…

Zos: we are not raising the vet cap to 18! We do listen to our community.

Next dlc: lvl cap increased to vr20

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...

Exactly. It all blurs together at this point, but IIRC it's been over a year (and two or three max level increases) since ZOS first announced that they intended to completely remove the VR system. I pretty much assume they don't really know what they are doing with post Level 50 advancement.

Having pondered it some more, I don't think they will up the vet rank again. They didn't do it with orsinium because of the overwhelming negativity surrounding it.

That said, I really don't see the point in wasting tons of resources removing vet ranks. Just reduce the amount of xp it takes for each vet rank to like 100k per level.

Ive been saying this since v12 was a thing

@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?

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)

Not really, hundings is and has been one of the best Stamina sets around, I've used it since console release and it's still recommended for instance. Julianos will be the same for magicks users.

As in not raising the VR cap ever?

Any other meaning would validate the concern. Just sayin'. :-)

So, @ZOS_RichLambert confirmed on the ESO AUA (see his reply to my question here) that the VR cap will not be increased at all now until Veteran Ranks are removed.

Result!

But reading way too much into everything is a popular forum game. There was even a thread made about it last year.
