One Tamriel - Monster Collectables

Turelus

So if everyone is scaled to the zone they're in and in theory higher levels get scaled down.

Does this mean ZOS just fixed monster collectables for all alliances? I'm a little scared here...

Food for thought. If the 5 level drop rule stays in effect, I don't see how scaling will help. Take nix-hounds: there are very few of them in game other than Stonefalls. If you start your character there, you're still likely to be more than 5 levels above nix-hounds without getting a drop, because you level so fast at low levels. That's been the problem for EP characters, and often the hardest collectibles to get are the one you missed at low levels. I'm willing to bet the only ones with all the collectibles (me, me, me, ) got all or most of them when we were still able to move them through the bank. The bank change made this achievement one of the hardest in the game. I don't think scaling will help, but it would be nice if it did.

With all zones scaled, all monsters, at all times, will be max level, thus you will get XP and loot from every enemy in the game. (Just like all of the DLC zones) EP characters can farm all of the mobs they out-leveled in vanilla ESO and have the ability to farm them in the scaled zones.

I really hope this is so. Farming vDSA for collectables is dumb.
