Skillpoint from morrowind tutorial unobtainable for toons created before morrowind. Change please?

It is pretty unfair IMO that toons created prior to the launch of morrowind are handicapped and restricted to 1 less skillpoint than toons created after morrowind's launch. I am aware there are probably some people out there that could care less, and that is fine. Coming from my perspective, with my main having close to 350 skill points, it is pretty sad that one point from the morrowind tutorial is unreachable... I doubt this would take much coding to fix, hoping with enough responses that @ZOS might look into it. Leave comments to bump the thread.

    There is no reason whatsoever that I can think of to keep this one skillpoint locked away just because you've played for a long time.

    We have had this issue since morrowind beta and zos never fixed it and I doubt they will do it now sadly. as a completionist this skillpoint matters to me even though I have 340ish skillpoints.

    Also this thread is going to be attacked like the one I made before by the "its only a skillpoint get over it" crowd when they don't understand that different playstyles exist

    explaination: if you do the morrowind tutorial on a new character, you are granted a skillpoint at the end of it and after they leave vvardenfell they can do the wailing prison for another skillpoint as well. Existing characters cannot do the morrowind tutorial so are locked out of a skillpoint. So perfectionists would have to create a new character in morrowind so they are not locked out of one skillpoint. This was reported in the beta by me and many others and still it remains an issue. the goal to get every skillpoint in the game remains impossible all because you created a character before morrowind existed.

    see what I mean? as I said the idc crowd is coming and is going to flame this thread. they will say zos has more important things to do and then from there they will say one skill point wont make a difference when you have 300plus skillpoints when they don't understand that completionism is a playstyle that exists weither they care about it or not

    you obviously havnt tested it

    "if you do the morrowind tutorial on a new character, you are granted a skillpoint at the end of it and after they leave vvardenfell they can do the wailing prison for another skillpoint as well.

    I have beta morrowind players like @enodoc and others that have tested and commented on it and we have tested this on live and your claim is false, you do get both tutorial skillpoints if you own morrowind and create a morrowind character and do both skillpoints. zos neither commented on beta and on live and that is sucky as we told them about this issue before it made it to live servers

    @platonicidealgirlfriend this is a well known issue that @ZOS just ignores. It has been tested, many times.

    They should allow pre Morrowind character to do the new tutorial as a quest just as how post Morrowind characters can do the Wailing Prison.

    Damn right. I went good guy mode to save that altmer ***** and didn't realize I'd pass on those sweet points. How could I know?! It's the single quest in the game that has such choice.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure there's more than enough skill points to go around and fill in every skill and morph and passive available for a character including Vamp/WW if you go with that.

    I have a feeling they will do this exact same thing with the next 'chapter' as well... create another 'tutorial' and give new characters an extra skill point... therefore screwing over existing characters once again. The fact that they haven't commented demonstrates that it IS intended, most controversial things that they intend they rarely ever discuss.

    I think from their perspective, as a for-profit company, is that giving extra incentive to create new characters garners them more money over time compared to an existing character.

    It's not intended, and they said it wasn't intended, but they're not going to fix it now.

    Agreed. This is the obvious and relatively-easy-to-implement solution. I have a thread about how to do that over here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/discussion/358647/two-tutorials-two-skill-points-two-quests-two-solutions It had all of 6 replies :stuck_out_tongue:

    I think that's slightly different. That was a conscious choice that you made for your character. This, on the other hand, is something that you can't control.

    LOL, Yes we should get the skill point, but really, in the end does it make any difference to end game?
    As a casual player I was satisfied that at one point I had a char max level and near max crafting with almost all motifs and I pretty much lost interest. Then ESO discovered DLC's and now my main is just a wanabe and I am happily pulled back into the game.

    There is no way fathomable to unlock everything, unless you respec. When you respec with 350 skill points, its not fun either... If I were to estimate, It would take roughly 600-700 skill points to unlock every skill on one toon. I welcome anyone that has the time to add up how many points it would require to unlock everything on one toon. @aliyavana looking at you buddy.
