132k gold for a skill point respec?

OrphanHelgen

Did this happened after today's patch?
I sometimes like to do mag dps and sometimes stam dps. Then I go pvp and I need one hand and shield, heavy armor etc.
The argument everyone says that there is enough skill points, is not true I confirm 100% and I have every skill point in the game except from cyro ranks above prefect.
This can't be serious.

Patch notes state this is an UI issue only and the cost is 1 gold despite. It's acknowledged in "Known Issues".

simple question to u. if skillpoints reset appears that high but is only 1 in fact, do u need to have the gold in ur inventory to click it, or does it work for u, when u click it without having the gold. i mean, its nice, thats its only a visual bug, but the option is grey and might give a negative response, if u click it, even though its only 1g. someone on german board jsut told me, that he couldnt click it and gets an info, that he hasnt got the gold to do it. what about people not having 130k or more?

Gythral

It is not charging 1g, it removed the figures I gave earlier,
but the 550k amount was the amount that that character was carrying at that time

Known Issue: The respec cost will appear to multiply for every skill point instead of being 1 gold. This is strictly a visual issue, and you can rest assured the cost is indeed just 1 gold.

ah as i read it, its not the gold u have in ur inventory, its some kind of maths mistake, multiplying for each skillpoint instead of adding?

i am just wondering, because even tho its only a visual error, it might mean, that people, not having 100k, 200k or 500k to put into their ivnentory, depending on situation, arent able to reset their complete skillpoints for a while, since the dialogue blocks the option to reset then.

Yeah that's the real issue and right between annoyingly embarrassing and unbelievably hilarious.

wasnt there a statistic about what player own in gold? i mean, just interested, how many people are blocked from skill resetting now.

gj, zos.

No it is not a math problem
I checked my gold before and after and the figures I quoted where what was deducted from the characters balances

What is worse is the displayed totals are not multiples of any obvious figure, as I changed 14 skills, 1 morph and zero

sry, its german screenshot, but here another pic - the amount of gold is greyed out, cant be the inventory gold then:



and i asked him to try to click it, he gets error message, he hasnt got enough gold. so however its doing the maths for the visual bug, at some point some people wont be able to click it and reset.

Gythral

So it appears it is not just bugged & not charging 1g it is bugged and stopping you respec unless you have the bugged amount displayed

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RobGarrett

DanteYoda

Man i'm not going to be able to respec now..

Jamdarius

Oh boy glad I came to forum, this surely gave me heart attack...




EDIT: Confirmed it's just displaying wrong ammount of gold. RESPEC TIME LADS

Dont_do_drugs

@Gythral u sure, u had 550k shown? the maths is skillpoints², @astridV hat 357 skillpoints resetted as example. so max will be 160k aroundish, thats not as bad as thought in the beginning, when i read ur 550k.

Svenja

I did several tests with my chars.
On my NA-Char I have 110 skill points, shown cost was 12100 gold. Actual amount I had to pay was 110 gold.
110x110=12100

EU Main had 365 skillpoints spent, I paid 365 gold, cost shown was 133225 gold.
365x365=133225

When I spend every extra skillpoint on my main, I have 385 skill points and when I then want to respec, cost shown is 148225.
385x385=148225

It really "multiplies for every skill point", like they wrote in the patch notes.
I really wonder why some people state it showed 550k for them.

Sweetare

What the hell ZoS.
Now I cant even respec some of my characters cause I just DONT HAVE the crazy amount of gold this "visual" bug requires to open the freaking respec window.

Wish there would be a single patch where they didnt break something.

And this coming after the frustrating weekend were I just couldnt do BGs or dungeons cause the freaking finder is broken.

Tasear

Passing this issue along.

LordWenzel

I've tried the respec with one of my toons. The respec cost was 44.944 gold, but spent only for about 150 gold.
Now i will try that with my main, but that need to be fixed asap. If you haven't that amount of gold you can't respec, even if the effective cost is too low.

This is becoming like a steadily repeated mantra for poor @Tasear. I bet if we woke her at 3 in the morning she’d mumble „passing this issue along...“

^This I just tried it the same thing. Happened to me. I am saving my gold for a giant barrel of "Git Gud energy drink".

While I realize no everyone reads the patch notes this highlights why doing so is beneficial.

Finviuswe

Na thers enough skill pts.

There enough skill points to max all crafting disciplines, class skills, guild skill lines, and armor skills with some skill points still left over. So there's enough skill points

AdriRaven

So, yep. Noooooot working as intended.



Tried to use the shrine and pick the option with 3k gold in my pocket, and nothing. So it's not merely a visual bug.

It really doesn't, because the patch notes are wrong.
The patch notes say that it's just a visual bug. It's not just a visual bug, because you can't respec at all unless you have as much gold on you as the "visual bug" says it's going to charge.

Indeed. Whatever the final cost you have to have the displayed gold in your inventory or you can't even start.

jbjondeaueb17_ESO

Even if it doesn't cost you as much you still need to have the full amount of gold on your character. That's unfortunate.

goldenarcher1

Need a hotfix for this.

Just make it free and be done with it.

SydneyGrey

I just tried it. I had to have 75,000 gold on my character to re-spec her, but once I did it, it only charged me a couple hundred gold, not the 75,000. It works, it just doesn't LOOK like it's going to work. I was terrified I was going to lose 75,000g, but I didn't.

So, it's safe. Unfortunately, it means that new players who don't have a lot of gold won't be able to re-spec at all, because they'll have to have a huge amount of gold on them at the time in order to do it, even though the gold won't actually be spent. It's a really weird bug.
