Yes my first impression was wrong - that is basically what I wanted to say with it. I was misled by the few samples I had in the morning, but after further testing it seems to be much better than I thought at first. I am one of those, who admit if they were wrong and that is why I stated that as well.

Well, I saw a Camper last night on a Trove. While approaching the Camper did jump up and down as to draw attention to the location. I went over there and they camper clearly indicated that I should take the trove. However after that, they stayed there. I watched for a while and the Trove respawned in about a minute. I went on and did what I needed to do in the area, but went back and the camper was still there and pulled two more while I watched.

There were no other Players around in this cell.

So, the respawn timers on these do need to be adjusted, at least some of them.

Was the camper you @Miszou ? The reason I ask is this was right next to a fishing hole.

lol, no. I didn't see anyone else the whole time I was there.

The bigger problem is the respawn rate. I've seen people camping spawn spots because those things were respawning in under a minute.

Yeah I can run back and forth between 2 troves and once I grab one and run back the other respawns so I never have to wait. Fill my inventory pretty quickly because I get about 2 - 3 troves a minute. Ill agree its a problem but I am not going to stop doing it :P

They do seem a bit excessive.

Like the first release of the justice system, the amount of gold a dedicated looter can obtain from it can be exceedingly high. High enough for it to actually pose a problem to the game's health (mainly inflation).

Something needs to be done. If not on the amount of items, then the respawn rates, or spreading out thier locations. I have no idea on how much they should decrease the rates though.

There is plenty of gold in the game, but I would not suggest anything being changed right now. Take advantage of the troves as you can, because if it is giving more than it should it will be changed.

Honestly... the op is right.
The respawn rate is insane and i walk 10 meters from one thieves trove to another one in the less visited silver and gold zones.

These Troves are in other zones?

Sorry, only been in Hews Bane and Orsinium since the update dropped.

They are everywhere.
Many people complain about lack of story quest or world bosses or delves, but the thieves main content are actually the daily quests all over tamriel with thieves troves on top of it.
Also the new trial ofr course.

Daily quests that are all the exact same and repetitive as crap.

For the time being, quick and easy way to get the gold for my respects.

Don't see what the fuss is personally, I get nothing but pots and white fence trash!

And it's threads like these is why we don't get nice things in this game I really hope this is a joke thread but at least I know where to send the hate mail when they nerf this.

I'm guessing that was the intent, an in-game way to cover the price of respeccing instead of assuming everyone has thousands on hand to spend on repecs. If you have 8 v16s (I only have one, but four vet toons) it would be extremely expensive to respec them all. Let's say 300 skill points plus cp, that's 33k right there, not counting attributes or gear. If you have just three or four alts at the same level, or even all eight it could be over 250k.

They've usually given us a way to get the same thing in-game as is available more easily in the store. I'm not saying every mount and costume here, but this may be another example of that. That being said, I've hardly been able to grab a single one what with people camping spawns.

Maybe it is a lot on a good day, but nothing drastic overall.

Why do so many people want respect all of a sudden?

You have to earn your respect by stealing things?

I found plenty untouched in just the second zone of each alliance. There was even one under the bridge that leads into Rawl with no one around it. You can't bank or trade stolen items, and there is a fence/launder limit, unlike resource nodes. By the time I get on, US west coast, no one's hanging around the troves anymore.

One, it wasn't sudden, I have 8 characters and was holding off because I was hoping for a skill reset at the update. Two, they change many skills and CP, so I have builds to rework.

I am fine with the loot from troves please don't nerf them =(

Greetings!

So far, I've found 4 troves out in the open world. 2 of them provided a box which contained some items. 1 gave me 450g worth of items, and just now I got 10 dices, thats 1000g. I don't mind a nice find, especially gold wise, but doesn't this seem a bit too excessive? It could break the economy I think.

Edit: Also, I think its a shame the troves glow by default, instead of giving us a passive to work towards, that gives us that ability like with the crafting materials in open world.

What does everyone else think? Are the troves too good?

The real question is:
Does gold really matter in The Elder Scrolls: Online? The answer is no and that answers your topic.
