    I don't think they usually give an ETA. Sometimes it only takes a few hours, sometimes it takes literally all day (if you're EU). Best off not worrying about it and doing something else today, or you'll be checking back here again and again and again.

    2-4 hours is an pretty good answer, patches tend to take closer to 6.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Average, over the years, I would say 4-5 hours, can be shorter, can be much longer.

    There is no "usual" amount of time - a short maintenance will be 2 hours, a long one 12 hours, and there's never any ETA given - just go find something else to do for a while.

    Looking at ZOS maintenance history, this is 2 hours earlier than normal maintenance and all systems are down at the same time. This tells me that it is downtime for building, infrastructure or power maintenance that prevents any servers being left running.

    I would suggest that downtime is likely to be be at least 3 hours, possibly up to 7-8 hours, but all going well, maybe 4-6 hours. Unfortunately it is not what I want on the first day of 3 weeks holidays, but it is what it is.

    Right about now, the fence in Daggerfall is starting to prepare my thief's coffee and pastry, and its going to go to waste now because of maintenance!!

    Was this maintenance planned? I thought NA servers did maintenance on Mondays. I looked on Sunday and it said no NA maintenance on Monday. I didn't read any further. Did it say it was moved to Wednesday and if so, why?

    I was away from this game for a few years but it seems to need maintenance every single week - is this right or am I exaggerating? Would be great to be able to skip a week here and there especially around the holidays.

    It was planned...and noted. I have no idea why they've been moving to Weds. the past couple times. Weekly maint. isn't unusual for MMOs. No idea if skipping maint. is a good idea or not. Don't know enough about the code and systems to say.

    Thanks for the info. I just assumed when it said NA no maintenance on Monday that there was none for the week. Ya know.. NA maint moved to Wednesday. Next time I'll read it all. Hope they don't have it next Monday. I like to play on Christmas morning before the family time later in the day.

    Sure. :) I made that same mistake the first time they didn't have it on a Monday, too busy being happy about no maint. to read further. :o

    Kind of doubt they'll do it on Christmas day if for no other reason, the maint. folks might like to be off to celebrate the day as well.
