Wishlist for Quality of Life (next) Update

priforce

I posted the new blog post about New Life Festival to my guild group and they responded by asking questions about the current state of the game, especially pvp. I informed them that there is a quality of life update coming but haven't been able to communicate what is to be expected.

I think the quality of life update is critical because it's a culmination of a year that Zenimax received a surge of funds due to crown crates and housing additions. Here is my wishlist of what I'd like to see go into this quality of life update and please feel free to add anything I have missed:

In no specific order of importance:

• Weapon Dying (no more red items)
  
• Transmogrification (make motifs great again)
  
• Guild Management Improvements (improve engagement between guild masters, officers, and members)
  
• "Guild House" setup, increase of personal/bank storage and # of items placed in homes
  
• Reworking Abandoned Sets (keep the sets that work, rework the ones that don't)
  
• Improving performance across PVP (make server sizes small and spread out, ways to incentivize alliance population imbalances, nerfing zergs)

And along the lines of Guild House setup, allowing people with specific decorator permissions to *place* items from their own inventory, instead of having to wait until the home's individual owner is online and has the time to dump all their stuff in there so they can move it around. That will make it a lot more tempting for couples playing as well. I know more married couples playing this game together than in any other I have ever seen. They want to decorate houses together and not have to mail everything to one of them.

Yup, this was already suggested many times, and has had examples from other MMO's cited where this was achieved successfully.
Unfortunately, we do not know what Z0$ priorities are, other than profit of course.

Housing storage please.

NyassaV

Grim focus to recast on use... Most recently played character at the top on character select

Storage wardrobe for houses

Yolokin_Swagonborn

• Fix terrible invisible walls in some of the medium and small houses. (twin arches roof)
• Cyrodiil banker needs guild store access
• Port directly to your house from cyrodiil wayshrines.
• All disguises acquired to game are also added in achievements as costumes
• Guild traders in the safe zones in cyrodiil
• PvP consumables (wall repair kits) stack to 200 instead of 100
• Crafting mats stack to 1000 since ZOS arbitrarily decided to require so many to make CP160 gear

Reply to received mail. I once got 3 potatoes in mail, why not 64 gold tempers

Obviously filters for banks, inventory and guild shops think awesome guild stores but server side.

Increased house furniture limit, note that this would be an crown store item for large increases at least.
Increased character cap on account, this will also give crowns.
For they who says ZoS is only interested in profit, it don't look like that, see character limit who is just to change an setting, they sell perhaps 2 megabyte storage for 3K crowns.
Housing slots require some more work, use an consumable item who increase furniture cap with 300 in current house.
Or better an item with negative item count so you can move it.

A complex one: The ability to post purchase orders in your guild store. In other words, allow guild merchants to buy things as well as sell.

The ability to set up custom battle ground matches (start with a group of 12, use the pre-existing tank/healer/dps selection to select the teams, when entering split the group into 3 groups, etc.).

A working wayshrine for housing.

A guild store merchant/banker for housing.

When a player takes a morph (which reads 'No longer ....' ) which radically changes the properties of the ability, the player should retain the option to use the base ability as well. Example: taking Empowering Chains would result in the player also being able to use the unmorphed 'Fiery Grip'.

I want to sell the houses I no longer use.

I don't pvp but I wouldn't be upset if they gave this quality of life update to them. Those guys need and deserve it. Just don't nerf more essential pve gear and abilities please.

ScardyFox

... a werewolf toggle.

Yeah... I said it.

The biggest quality of life ZOS could give PvP is disabling champion points in all PvP activities and restoring the 5k magicka, stamina and health stolen from the us when the champion system was implemented.

Champion points are what causes the power creep that makes skills hit ridiculously hard in PvP and then people cry for nerfs.

Iccotak

Yes more house storage. Like the mount training give us another avenue to upgrade our bags

I would like to see more Guild focused content. Something to encourage guild activities.

eso_nya

Not another genocide grind for motifs.
Not another AP grind for motifs.
Put dungeon motif in dungeon when released and not 3 month later.

Why no motifs from craftingrelated activities?

Housing slot "pool". Distribute slots from owned houses freely.

Slick_007

could you not read the existing thread which is still on the first page?

Eatmyface

Holy crap.

Reading a lot of this and imagining how good the game would be if most of it was implemented!!

Gilvoth

please increase sneak speeds for all classes.

Gamerscape2007

Oh please, like they're going to honor said wishlist. The only way they'll ever honor half of those, especially for pvp, if the community goes the star wars 2 battlefront route and just give Zos biggest backlash they could possibly get, ever. (Funny how thier "Please be respectful." is completely overshowed thanks to the battlefront 2 disaster Ea created.) And lets be honest here, the only way people are ever gonna go that route is when Zos decides to *** the core gameplay for that extra cash. Like paying money for an AP booster or something.

SpAEkus

Character face/body creation save for future characters.

Show previous earned morph levels when using base skill popup, really hate having to respec because x of xx characters already have Level IV of the Stamina or Magicka morph when I am trying to level the opposite one and choose wrongly

dodgehopper_ESO

One thing I've been wanting is for them to give us a page that lists our recipes, diagrams, in one easy to view page. As it stands recipes aren't even listed in achievements and neither are diagrams. It would be nice for diagrams, motifs, and recipes to be on a character sheet page that we can flip through and sort for the sake of convenience.

Mettaricana

Triple player housing population for guildmeets and tournements.

Transmog to bot be a grind and just a casual open menu and change to something known for the cost of its style mat.

Reduce or remove horse feeding cooldown.

Alchemy hireling

Dual enchanting(allow one main enchant on any peice of gear and the second enchant will be half the strength.)

New weapon types to spice up our builds

Buff bows until they can be mained and acceptable in dps

Houses to be more useful banking storage increases

Max inventory increase by another 100

Guild trader item search by keywords

Redo all motifs to show their actual rarity.(mercenary and assassin should be blue or green) also do this to all items gold housing crap thats worth 500g shouldnt be gold rarity.

More body slider options

Seperate eye makeup from lip makeup l

Seprate horns from eye lashes

Hair color pack in crown store including colors from other races.

Glowy eyes crown cosemetics

Make guilds not suck give us guild bonuses we can unlock bonus bag size exp bonus when questing with guildies.

Using battlegrounds for set fights is an good idea, it would not give xp or ap but would be a both an fun guild activity and nice for training. Yes you can do this in cyrodil but require players in two factions.

Edd1eV3DD3R

I just want them to stop ******* PVE players because something in AvA needs patching or rebalance. This is coming from someone who actually plays in Cyrodiil also.

Well I think most companies would go duck, cover and silent running about future monetisation.
The star signs are kind of against it.

Vanthras79

ZOS has a habit of making systems that sound like they could be fun, and tying it into a monetized system with emphasis on micro-transactions (assuming you don't want to grind.) This game could be really, really, fun if ZOS was not so darn greedy.

Banana

Server upgrade and/or one in the lower portion of the planet

Ohtimbar

Fix the mail system. Complete the gamepad ui. Increase guild roster limit. Take stronger action against abusive players. Make it easier to report bots. More crystals for pledges.
