    Hey guys, thanks for your patience. We're obviously still in maintenance for PTS, and should have an ETA for you within the hour.

    wow. very long day for y'all. Patch days must be kind of hard ones too. Thanks for hanging in there with us.

    Due to technical issues, the Homestead PTS deployment will be rescheduled for tomorrow. We're sorry for the delay, and will keep everyone posted starting tomorrow morning as to when it will be available.

    No offence but this happens every pts launch date...

    Every launch. Gina it's not your fault, but the Developers are amateurs.

    Kilandros - Dragonknight / Grand Overlord
    Deimos - Templar / Grand Warlord
    Sias - Sorcerer / Prefect
    Short answer is DKs likely won't be seeing a ton of changes before we go live; this class is still quite powerful (as it should be being a tank), even after some of the adjustments we've made to other classes and abilities.

    DK IS NOT JUST A TANK CLASS. #PLAYTHEWAYYOUWANT

    Okay then, thank you :/

    I'll go to sleep and tomorrow I'll try some new ice builds I guess.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Have you read it closely? You won't be able to heal until you are pretty much out of magicka... Which makes it pointless to be a DK tank, you suck at dps and now you'll suck at self heals...

    Green Dragonblood is a morph for stam DK's. Since you can't regenerate stamina while blocking stam regen is useless. So this: "Grants Major Fortitude and Minor Vitality, increasing Health Regeneration by 20% and healing received by 8% for 20 seconds." Is way better than this: "Grants Major Fortitude and Major Endurance, increasing Health and Stamina Regeneration by 20% for 20 seconds. " for magDK.

    I know what both of them do, but the healing received isn't too useful when soloing, which is one of the things you were complaining about. Just saying it's not the end of the world.

    Most people found coagulating blood useful because it buffs all the other sources of healing like inhale, burning emebers, and power lash. Coagulating blood is a pretty poor heal by itself. They could have honestly done a decent job of fixing the class by just exempting dragons blood and morphs from battle spirit.

    This is beyond frustrating.

    Fair points. I guess we'll have to see just how powerful it is when they get their patch figured out.

    Well in the known issues section of the patch notes it says

    Certain furnishings, such as ferns and bushes, may have larger-than-intended collision when placed in homes

    So apparently there's ferns and bushes, if that approaches an answer.

    Please ZoS, MagBlade needs some loving! Especially looking at PvE content, they are very underpowered compared to the other classes out there. This patch increase the magic cost for one of their skills (which I'll admit was low, so fair enough), but they need at least one of their abilities buffed or reworked to provide better dps in keeping with the other classes.

    Dev's aren't amateurs @Kilandros , they're just having to undertake a herculean task. It's the Public Test Server a platform where it first goes live outside the office. This is not a game you have paid for, by participating in the PTS you are agreeing to do some acceptance testing for them. Being a test server things like this not only will happen but you can expect them to.

    In the meantime, to all those waiting and those labouring away to make it happen. Have a picture of a happy goat. \:D/
