    I don't care because there are plenty of skill points you can get elsewhere without relying on this one.

    Disgustingly true.

    Biased poll. Lacks the option "I don't care about a single, measly skill point".

    You so gud you no need. Meanwhile, 95% of the other people would like access to the locked skillpoint. This poll is not biased. The only thing biased is the fact that you are penalized for making a character before morrowind.

    That's cool, except for the other 95% of the people that do care. No one is "relying" on this skill point, it is a quality of life thing. Why drive when you could walk? The big issue lies within the perfectionist and completionist players. How would you feel if you had every single skill point in the game unlocked, except this one? All due to incompetence... This was reported on the PTS by several people, and ignored.

    Don't mean to sound, well... mean, but it is only a game.

    And it is only 95% of 82 (at time of writing) poll respondents that care, not 95% of 'the people'. In reality I'm sure 95% of all players actually do not care about 1 single skill point. For me, the game has bigger issues to worry about.

    that skillpoint means a lot to completionists. we gave feedback for morrowind during beta and zos ignored it which is pretty annoying... importance to game depends on the player and you need to understand that people have different playstyles, and if I could I would organize fixes by housing>pve>pvp and many might think that pvp is more important than pve or housing more important than both but all are equalliy important and this falls into it affecting a completionist playstyle

    What, housing on top of your fix list.... something that has no impact on your character and their abilities, how combat works, how easy or hard it is to progress in the game - that is just crazy.

    Now if changes made to housing made it easier to earn gold, than I'm all for them, but housing is way down the list of must fix items.

    I just believe housing needs a storage system and more slots then I'm good. its a nice break for when I am done with combat for a bit

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

    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.

    Allow us to take part in the tutorial quest. I can be annoying and say people paid for Morrowind and only have one character didn't get to experience all the content they paid for :P
    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:

    While you're at it, also ask for the 2 mage guild skill points.
    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.

    Can you quote what they said? Can't seem to find it

    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.

    There is def a need for more skill points. If you have crafting stuff etc I'm sitting with like 3 to spare (and those are floaters for skills I have available to morph based on the need) and I have all 399 skyshard too.

    If you want to look at the bigger scale, it would have been nice if they listened to the countless people that complained about it during the PTS period. People don't just give feedback because it makes them feel good, we do it so the bugs get fixed. They disregard a massive amount of things they are completely aware about every PTS... Back when orsinium came out gil reported in the PTS how carnage was broken and not working... They acknowledged it on these forums, and didn't fix it until the next patch 6 months later. You know how messed up it was having your main toon a khajiit without the only decent passive working? Back when race change was not allowed either...

    That one measly skill point could be Intimidation or Persuasion, both of which can be pretty important when you're questing. It could be an extra hireling in a crafting skill. It could be an alternate Ultimate to give you more spec options. I wouldn't sneeze at one point. They're really important when you're low level and I don't see how they are any less important at endgame unless you have a million toons and you're only minmaxing for specific functions rather than building a wholly functioning character to use in multiple places without spending thousands every time you want to do something different.

    Yes there is, all you need to do is respec.

    If you need to respec there aren't enough points, no??? Otherwise no reason to respec. I just started crafting on my main and I can use every extra skill point to raise to max level in crafting.

    There are currently 560 skill points necessary to fill all skills and passives.

    There are 93 skills a char can learn (vamp & wolf both counted, only one class skill line).

    There are 374 points necessary to complete all passives (147 points for crafting).

    What's more annoying is that they didn't ignore it. They said they would fix it by changing it so that you only got one "tutorial skill point" overall, and then.... they forgot? Didn't get around to it? We don't really know why they never fixed it.

    Polls which do have an "I don't care" option are more biased, as they encourage engagement from unengaged people, and the result is invariably skewed by that. Don't care? Don't vote!
