10 things you dislike in eso

charley222

hello everyone here my 10 things i dislike in eso in case someone wake up one day and fix some issue

1- spamming 1 attack make the job done , this combat ask any strategy and skill only to have a good build and spam
2- this game have a most 300 set item and let me honest big big max 50 are useful and 10 are just broken op easy 250 are just under power and are useless
3- combat have terrible balance issue still after 4 year some mechanics are just still broken
very poor job there (ganking spamming Lethal Arrow and Cloak , DOT have any effect vs Cloak spammer Oo
4-Traits player always use 80% of the time the same Traits make other useless poor selection
5- unbreakable fear https://www.google.ca/search?biw=1216&bih=503&ei=NOiZW82DHJKG5wLfqbG4BA&q=eso+unbrakeble+fear&oq=eso+unbrakeble+fear&gs_l=psy-ab.3...6056.6589.0.7292.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.Ekz6rC_qn_w
6-eso combat is the zoning paradise for some class , mean playing some class is got any consequence engaging or losing a bit of heal np you just have to run always Oo with out any consequence mean this game allow free trolling
7-cyrodiil still have very big frame drop and huge loading screen
8- stamina build still have very poor selection of stamina class skill
9-weapon skill line ultimate are 80% useless very few are use
10- Champion Skills point end 95% the same 1 build for stamina 1 build for magicka
my opinion eso dont offer hard choice to build my character the choice are very obvious because 1 skill are op broken or item are 90% useless most of the time
i love the eso world and voice acting lore character item customization but have to be honest i dislike the poor combat balance and mechanics https://www.google.ca/search?biw=1216&bih=503&ei=gueZW4PaA8-n5gLK56egCg&q=eso+poor+combat+&oq=eso+poor+combat+&gs_l=psy-ab.12...19105.19105.0.20367.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.euKrpsWiu0o this is my opinion thank you

MaxJrFTW

1- The total and complete lack of stamina morphs. Every stam class is the same, only 2-4 skills change.
2- The CP system, or rather how long the grind is. The system itself is fine, but should be 10 CP every patch, not 30. It's very demoralizing for new players, or even not so new players who are still nowhere near the cap after 8 months of playing daily(that's me)...
3- CP PvP. Nobody ever dies.
4- The pre-applied execute sorcerers have. I love taking someone down to 20% on my own, just to have the kill automatically stolen.
5- The bugs. Specifically the sprint bug, and the constant weapon swap bug.
6- Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood only have passives, pretty useless at that. Who had this grandiose idea?
7- How outdated some models look for a 2014 game. WoW came out in 2004 and they're constantly updating older models, so what's your excuse for having such a crappy Werewolf model? And that's just an example.
8- Snipe...Why is this a thing, why are players allowed to take away half your HP with one button?
9- Researching traits. 27 days for a trait, that's just unnecessary.
10- Lack of obtainable cosmetic items in game.

MaxJrFTW

Double post.

DoobZ69

1 Racial passives design. Mainly how Redguards are only built for stamina and high elves are only made for magicka. I want to play a toon because I want to RP it, not because its better at something mechanically. In my opinion every race should be capable of all playstyles.

2 All races and alliances paywall. This should either not be available or free for everyone as part of the game. A friend of mine just got the game and wanted to play a race which wasn't on my alliance so after I showed him that we wouldn't be able to pvp together he said "this is BS design" and quit .

3 Lack of tooltips and information. A lot of information lacks clarity in terms of what it is and what it does.

4 Lack of clarity from developers. A few of them have made posts on the forums about how they won't be commenting but will be reading posts. However, there are huge arguments about how things should work between players without the developers commenting on what their intentions about those statuses are. Eg. Do they want all classes to do every role equally or some be naturally better than others and thus be META. etc.

5 Search function in guild traders. I have to rely on external resources to buy items in-game or I literally get sore eyes scrolling looking for something. This is a health and safety issue to be honest.

6 RNG reliance. I've recently decided to get 1h Ebon weapons for my tank and about 40 runs later I just have 1 sword. 120 keys to get the right Bloodspawn shoulders. Another 60 to get Tremorscale. etc. I don't think this is a good system especially combined with problem (3) if someone wants to try different builds/gear options. This is one of the reasons people look up the best builds and only (focus on/grind for) them without trying something different.

7 Bugs in general. The recent disappearing wall is an example. They don't last long but the long ignored resource loss bug and non-acknowledgement of by the developers is very disheartening and there are many more like that one. At this stage this is the biggest problem I will remember about ESO long after I stop playing it.

8 Clunkiness of abilities such as Overload and taunt. I'm getting frustrated with taunt not applying after 2-3 attempts only to watch the heavy attack 1shot a dps or something. Constantly going back into Overload because of lag is a nuisance as well.

9 Uselessness of many buffs/debuffs in pve vs pvp as well as bosses. Snares and roots on bosses (and certain immune mobs) are just a waste of time and taunt is a waste of time in pvp. These need to be looked at to do something as those particular skills lose almost all usefulness in certain situations.

10 Class balance across all roles. This is a pretty major one for me. I want to see class variety for every role. Its a joy getting a healer other than a Templar every once in a while, just for a change. I would also like to tank with other classes (i main a Sorc tank) but am turned away by a lack of another set of tanking tools. Also a balance between magicka and stamina within the classes is a bit of a turn-off.

There's a lot more that I like than I dislike, but here's some stuff that has bothered me for a while now. The first one is the only thing that has legitimately angered me on multiple occasions, while the rest are just meh.

1) The lack of a global guild trader store / the need to go visit the guild traders in person to buy their wares / the inability to reliably check what's for sale, for how much and where.

2) The inability to do non cp duels with friends who are either overleveled or underleveled.

3) The battlegrounds queue being bugged every single time I attempt to enter pvp.

4) The following things not being account-wide:

-Skyshard collection / Cyrodiil's skyshards locked behind faction doors.
-Wayshrines.
-The psijic quest line.
-Main story completion / inability to skip.

5) Non-existing magicka counterpart of the Imperial race (10% magic and 12% hp).

6) Sub-50 pvp exists, it is a horrible experience compared to non cp pvp on levels 160 or higher.

7) Pve content in some pvp areas.

8) Players who queue in roles their build/equipment can not fulfill (tauntless tanks, dps queueing as healers, etc).

9) Slow process to reach cp 300 (took me over a month and a half) / catch up in level with people who have been playing for a long time.

10) The inability to buy certain homes with gold (but it's understandable why this happens, don't get me wrong, I just ran out of things to complain about).

Kram8ion

Why oh why would my dots on you take me outta stealth!
Still

Bubbastic

1- Mount training not account wide
2- Loosing Telvar when we die
3- Dungeons sets have a very bad drop rate on some pieces
4- There is no search for trials
5- XP rate is extremely low to earn CPs
6- Crowns items are too expensive
7- Researching 9 traits takes so long
8- Changing race costs way too much
9- Housing slot limits
10- the increased amount of bugs those past weeks

Turelus

1. Champion points.
2. Nightblade changes over the last year (full reliance on LA weave to DPS and no other competitive options)
3. One shot mechanics.
4. Crown Store constantly pushing the line.
5. Less meaningful choices for character development (one style of play or build vastly outperforms all others)
6. Alliance swapping (lack of reasons to stay with one faction in a campaign)
7. Game isn't alt friendly (too much grinding the same content)
8. Entire guild trader UI/System (I don't want an auction house, but we need an update in this area)
9. Development focus on new content rather than stability of old content (one less DLC a year for longer focus on fixing up issues)
10. Removal of the LOL button from the forums.

StamWhipCultist

This wont be objective since I can speak only for myself.
1. I hate lag. It ruins PvP large scale fights and drains all joy from Cyrodiil
2. I hate how some quests are outstanding and written great and some others seem like someone who want ESO to die made them.
3. I hate deserter penalty, 20 minutes is way too much and it waste time of players who were unfortunate to end in 1v4v4 bug scenarios where leaving is only option.
4. I hate maintenance. I know it is needed but whenever I have day off it seems to be maintenance day as well.
5. I dislike a lot loading screens of all kinds, but ones we get when swapping characters are killing me. I have ton of alts, collecting mail from crafting hirelings is a hellish experience and complete waste of time. I spend about 30 minutes every day I play in these screens.
6. I kinda dislike the character cap. Cant see why is there no initiative from zos to sell more character slots, since I am pretty sure lot of people would purchase them.
7. I dislike the fact expensive housing utilities purchased from crown store are mostly usable only in a single house. Crafting stations and mundus stones bought from store should be usable in more houses at once.
8. I dislike the fact that not enough items that are sold in crown store cannot be earned in game. I spend quite a lot in store anyways, but it would be great if we had more of these as rewards in game. For example, completing all the quests in Alik'r desert could have the redguard king giving us a camel mount or similar.
9. I dislike guild limit of 5. Since there is no global action house, and we are limited to 30 items to be listed for sale, one or two more guild slots would be really great.
10. I dislike that we are still unable to craft our own houses from scratch. I hope we get feature like that one in the future and I feel a lot more ppl would love that.

Amdar_Godkiller

1. Having to constantly put on and remove rapids in cyrodil. If riding training was account wide, this wouldn't be an issue.

2. Having to use a ranged weapon in PVE as a dps.

3. The fact that NBs and Sorcs never get sufficiently nerfed and every other class goes through long periods of being unplayable.

4. There are some worthless jewelry enchantments that are long overdue for some love.

5. Block cost is insanely expensive for anyone not using Ice staff or sword and board. When using ice staff or sword and board, block cost is still expensive, just not insanely so.

6. The fact that stealthed/invisible nightblades can reach the movement speed cap is a broken element of this game. conceealed weapon should not be buffing speed beyond the point of normal walking speed.

7. The lack of transparency on basic combat and gameplay mechanics. This game needs a manual at times and much of what you find online is outdated or even wrong.

8. Lack of a CP battlegrounds option.

9. No faction lock for PVP.

10. The light attack/heavy attack sustain-starved meta.

Ashamray

1. Poor and unusable skills.
2. Gringing. Mages? Grind. Psijic? Grind. Fighters? Grind. Abilities level? Grind. Champion Points? Grind. is that an Elder Grind online or what?
3. A lot of trash sets.
4. IC tied to Cyrodiil campaign.
5. Not enough skill lines in general and poor vamp choice in particular.
6. Queue bug.
7. Visual weapon bug / weapon under feet.
8. Not enough interesting things in Cyrodiil.
9. Long robes usually have bad design and animation.
10. How to loot specific gear like BSW flame stuff, eh? You can try 100 times and get 0

SilverPaws

1. Disconnects
2. Disconnects
3. Disconnects
4. Disconnects
5. Disconnects
6. Disconnects
7. Disconnects
8. Disconnects
9. Disconnects

I mean there is a lot of things i dislike in eso, but this one made me quit the game recently, because the disconnects are so frekvent that it's no longer playable. It's shame really i loved this game, but this wolf hunter update messed everything up for me.

Zodiac_

1. Servers
2. Over - Under performing class and abilities. Lack of balance if you want to call it like this
3. Toxic behaviour from tryhards
4. The bugged grouping tool for BGs and the fact you are penalized for leaving an event even if you are totally alone....
5. Existence of useless sets (for variety reasons ?)
6. The poor reward system for PvP campaigns/mails
7. Cyrodiil in peak time, simply unplayable
8. Jewellery crafting system.
9. Grinding new characters or skill lines/Farming for a set. Developers should at least try playing the game...Maybe then they can realise how much time it takes to do some of the grinding required and why people are gradually abandoning the game. I am saying this now with transmutation system already implemented o.O
10. Lack of new content in main story, quests of the game

.

ccfeeling

I agree all above points !

IZZEFlameLash

1. Having to collect Skyshards every single time when making new chars.
2. No PvP performance improvements.
3. No attempts at class balancing. For example, NBs and Wardens have all the useful buffs in their class kits (NBs more so). DKs for example? A lot of useless passives fit for outdated gameplay. But with no sustain fix in sight. Faster ultgen or better sustain passives.
4. Unneeded nerfs such as what they are about to do with shields.
5. No regards for balance in PvP when bringing in the new sets.
6. Psijic levelling with unfunny Ogur of Babbling.
7. No player feedbacks are taken that seriously. Only ones taken seriously are some minor vfx glitch or typo over major serious issues like performances or exploitable glitches.
8. Constant re-introduction of old glitches. Refer to resource guard shield bash.
9. Almost all RNG systems including PvP quests. Once it starts to roll trash, it will roll trash consecutively for eternity. If you are lucky, you will be met with new one.
10. General unrefined look and feel of the game. Is this game still in the beta or alpha stage?

WuffyCerulei

1. The fact that the last 2 trials we have are "mini" trials that have their stuff locked behind multiple bosses at once. I want another regular trial.
2. Magsorc sustain in pve
3. Crystal Frags not stunning
4. Making new trial motifs a total grind (welkynar) or not releasing them at all after the trial's been live for over a year (Refabricated)
5. Bots, but I've been seeing less of them
6. Getting certain weapons (aka the elusive BSW fire stafd) an absolute terrible grind
7. Not balancing certain aspects in pvp/pve without badly effecting the other
8. CP being too much of a grind for newer players
9. Not addressing certain issues in the game even though it's been brought up multiple times
10. Not enough Argonians

DaveMoeDee

1. Inventory management
2. Skill rebalancing
3. Busy work for leveling DLC skill lines
4. Mounts with ugly particle effects
5. Crown store advertisement at log on
6. Crown showcase email alerts

Not sure what else annoys me. Maybe crappy DDs in vet PUGs, but I don't want to blame game for that.

mocap

1 easy overland content

Sheezabeast

1) The ugly goofy looking shield icon that covers your weapon when you hold block. It needs to be turned into a status icon for blocking and not literally block/obscure your weapons.

2) Items that do not stack in your inventory.

3) Housing limitations...needs increased item limits, even if you end up selling them for Crowns.

4) Quit making us pay to dye our armor...charge for style changes but not for re-dying armor. We earned the motif, earned the dyes...not fair to us.

5) I hate how this game doesn’t prepare its players for dungeon roles. It’s time to add a brief tutorial explaining the bare basic roles of tank, heals, and dps. Just explain what taunting is, what red circles mean, what AOE damage does... no build advice, just inform newbies what is expected from them. A little knowledge goes a long way.

6) I hate how in PVP you can’t see resources flagged on the transitus map...hate having to back out of it, open map again, just to see conflicts.

7) I hate how much inventory upgrades cost...maybe reduce the cost during events or something, as someone with 15 characters it gets expensive! Maybe even add inventory increase tokens to Crown Crate prize pool. Bankable too.

8) I can’t stand the current attitude that healers aren’t needed to run dungeons...either healers need more utility buffs or something needs adjusted, it’s just sad.

9) We need an updated ticket/reporting function, more streamlined, more space to describe our issues. I hate reporting bots with the current system.

10) I hate wasting Enlightenment. Add the ability to choose whether to activate your current Enlightenment or pause it. It would help if I’m shopping or crafting and I don’t have to micro manage what I do based on if I’m Enlightened or not.

Mintaka5

1) bleed damage that is more effective than critical.

2) stamina based builds always outpacing skill execution versus magicka builds

3) Cyrodiil LAAAAAAAAAAAAG!

4) PvP stealth gankers

5) lack of effective shielding for sorcs even though it's considered the best in-game

6) Invinci-builds (basically unloading everything I have on a player, and nothing happens). Makes for really bad gameplay.

7) The cost of crown crates, and the ***-poor RNG that keeps giving me garbage items. I have stopped buying them.

8) No queue for trials! This aspect of the game is basically off limits due to elitist players with very extreme expectations placed upon DPS, and I have yet to find any documentation from ZOS that proves that players must meet these requirements.

9) DLC vet dungeons are mechanically too difficult

10) Even with all the new content that has come out, I am severly losing interest in ESO.

IZZEFlameLash

Oh yeah I guess 11. Bandaid fixes that ends up creating more imbalances. Bleeds... I mean, they say this was intended for anti tank thing but guess what? Non-tanks suffer whole lot more than tanks do. They could've gotten creative but they opted to this mess.

Cheveyo

1. No global auction house.
2. Extremely limited builds. You're either magicka, or stamina. You wear X number of each armor type. You use X weapon, with Y weapon used as a back up. If you stray too far from what's been decided, you're going to have a bad time.
3. Skyshard collections. IMO, if you've already gotten the achievement for collecting a zone's skyshards, then you should automatically get them all on all characters. Maybe create an NPC in the mage's guild that gives you all of the shards for that zone if you have the achievement.
4. Racials being so important.

aeowulf

1) Performance - ESO use to be fast, fast enough for truely epic fights in Cyrodiil. Fast enough that 4GB PC with a nvidia 570 could handle running TWO instances of Windows 7 & ESO
2) Cannot turn off/tone down spell effects enough, especially from group members.
3) Class balance - specifically in underplayed roles - DK healer, templar tank etc
4) Dreading patch days - due to the seemingly constant nerfing of every class
5) Items sets are bland these need some new bonuses like adding +x to CP skills or having set with 4/6/7/8/9/10 piece bonuses etc
6) Class/role perception - want to tank a trial on your non-DK? nope, not gonna happen.
7) PTS comments not listened to or acknowledged. For example Morrowind class sustain changes killed off Templar/NB tanks. I not sure which is worse - the fact there were large threads on the PTS forum prior to Morrowind about it which were ignored, or nearly 18 months later nothing has changed.
8) Racials are so not balanced it's hilarious. Some races have zero sustain whilst others have sustain that is better than some classes.
9) Diminishing returns does not work properly - the maths is screwy somewhere. CP works that way, but other stuff doesn't meaning you see daft numbers on target dummies which no way represent real world.
10) Before the store happened it felt like time was spent improving/fixing the game. Now it feels like time is spent improving the store instead. Maybe try fixing the game otherwise people will leave and not buy from the store anyway.


and yet I still love ESO... grrr.

Listen to this wise man, stoopid Zenimax, just remove the loading screens already, i know you implemented them just to get on our nerves.

1: Knowing that you won't address the vast majority of what I or anyone here has to say.

2: That the game is full of coding issues, bugs, PVP lag, its still on direct x 1.3... and a half.

3: Werewolves are still left in a state of perpetual half-thought in design and play-ability.

4: Aside from the PVP lag - I hate how the game is a snare-a-thon.

5: Not enough small content (aside from dungeons). I wish you guys would do Primal Fights akin to FF14.

6: Jewelry grind is obnoxious - as aforementioned (FF14) I know what grind is, this is just misplaced.

7: Racials need adjusting. NOT a nerf, other races need boosting.

8: I despise the crown store. Since it will never go away, give us more choice on what we can buy and adjust the utterly draconian rate on getting anything that doesn't smell like it turned up in lowtide on "manure" beach.

9: That I feel the same way about Vampires as reflected on number 3... just not as important to me as werewolves.

10: That too many enjoyable rewards you should be able to work for in game (so to speak) are locked away in loot chest. Instead of working towards something (in a grind) thats rewarding and fulfilling (not based on a weapon or armor), it/they/whatever will 9 times out of 10 end up in an RNG box I will never buy.

you guys are also morphed elves

also lol at the grind. this is the most grindless mmo game ive ever seen.

Merlin13KAGL

Mostly, in no particular order:

1. Inventory
2. Skills that won't fire. Skills that won't stop firing.
3. Inventory
4. Heavy attacks that turn into light attacks / Light attacks that lock into heavy attacks.
5. A targeting system that is complete crap. (Size of a building, trying to kill me, right the *** in front of me, hit the damned thing!) Fighter pilot level precision to hit the vermin behind a crate, in the dark, from 40 meters away.
   
   ...give me a second to make room...
6. Inventory
7. DPS being primarily based on rotation - not nearly as much dynamic aspect to it as there should be. If it was just to be about button presses, I'd play a typing game.
8. FoTM / BiS Racial imbalances / BiS Gear imbalances (See also: Gear grind)
9. Changes made to systems/gear or introduction of either/both with zero consideration to how it will affect the non-intended groups. (Case in point: Sloads, just one example ~ and there are methods that will actually produce the desired intended effect, but those are not the implementations they go for.)
10. Finally: Pathing and (lack of) character control: While I can fight a Daedric God and his entire army with finesse and grace, I still get hung up on a 2" rock, I can't clear a 6" fence post, and instead of jumping 18" in front of me, I'll consistently jump 3 feet in the air and land squarely in the middle of the lava I was trying to avoid.
