Or not? What do you think after Morrowind arrives?

What about Flawless Conqueror title? Will it be harder to obtain?

    Harder? Not by much, truthfully. Sustain will be harder, but with cp changes you'll actually see a slight increase in survivability I think (especially with warrior and thief constellations). It will take longer and you'll have to do mechanics, but for most it won't seem much worse.

    Just my thoughts.

    Nothing in ESO will get harder or has gotten harder for sometime.

    Give it a few weeks, the forums will be flooded with crying customers horrified at what they dont like and demanding change.

    Whatever has become harder will be addressed quickly. A happy customer is a paying customer and the later is the priority. ZOS has the -Midas- touch

    It will definitely be harder with burst and sustain taking a hit. Mag sorcs on the other hand get a free pass for whatever reason.

    I got my Flawless Conquerer title just earlier this afternoon.

    I'm happy. One less headache to worry about once the Morrowpocalypse drops.

    Isn't burst getting a buff? LA damage increase with general Direct damage increase.

    I thought the consensus was that at worst it will just take longer to complete? I guess that could be considered 'harder' in some sense if you are trying to farm a specific weapon, though not in the sense that would result in some sort of hysterical apocalypse, i think.

    It's sooooooo fun when your first death is when the last boss has 20k health when you don't have the achievement.

    Or as happened to me, fighting final boss, latency gets so bad you die to environmental damage, game crashes to desktop, server continues to cry when you connect, and then be reset to the beginning of round 1 by the time it finally re-connects.

    Lol no offence, but Normal is even more face roll easy than Vet, you could do Normal naked and with white gear and still faceroll everything

    Learning and completing Veteran is entirely different.

    Thats why i said i wont go back in. Ive done the content, and since the difficulty gap is so extroardinarily gigantic between normal and vet, i wont even bother trying vet, and since nothing good drops in normal, theres no point to Maelstrom.

    Don't care, I got it done once at least. But there's no way I'm grinding that for weapons or titles, now or after Morrowind. They'd have to nerf it into oblivion for me to do that.

    When you understood all mechanics, then vMSA will never be hard again. You just need to learn all mechanics and then you will be faster and faster automatically. Its like learn car driving... Somewhen you earsily will finish it without dead B)

    I understand the mechanics just fine, but I am very bad at learning that type of split-second multitasking. Yeah I could learn with enough time, but it's not fun. I don't even drive a car.

    i'm having one of those realisation moments...

    maybe 6 months ago i was making comments like others have been making in this thread, on this very forum; convinced i would never clear it on vet. and once i did get my 1st ever clear i swore i would never run it again.....

    now im running it for leaderboard scores on 2 dk's every week, even started running it on my 2 templars (one of them is a full healer) just to try & get that sharpened inferno, (have everything else)

    WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ME!

    I think i need an intervention!

    I was at that point once, I've seen the light and not done VMA for months.
    May RNG be with you (I got my inferno from the leaderboards).

    I no longer do "mandatory" stuff such as writs, horse etc. each to their own but I realised it's not healthy (imo of course and no disrespect to others).
