✭✭YesIt's raining and very windy atm, especially where I am, so it might feel like the sky is falling.
I can reassure you, the sky is in fact not falling.

pattyLtd✭✭✭✭✭NoSadly, no.
It feels way to similar to when morrowind was on PTS.
I lost all ambition to even care about getting better and make progressthat returned but now I remember why i stopped caring.
I will definetlycheck out how my sorc fairs in vma when this downgrade goes live but I already stopped spending extra money a while ago and canceled eso+ autorenewal recently so it will run out soon.
I cant justify supporting this game anymore to myself. GG wroble, the game is not fun anymore, thanks.Edited by pattyLtd on October 3, 2018 7:06AMEnglish is not my native language, no grammar police please, tyvm5 -
lucky_dutch✭✭✭✭NoNo. They've taken away numerous areas of survivability from my Magblade without giving anything back. There's basically going to be no way to shake a determined stam character now in PvP making every fight a dps race. Also the Anguish set (even after the nerf) is complete AIDs.
They need to give light armor a snare break now to balance PvP.1 -

✭✭✭YesYes, change is good.
I know i will miss my shield and have been trying to PvP without it. It's a bit more difficult, even in full HA all impen, but recently i have been back in full light armor, being the melee magblade i wanted to be but without shields.
Currently the state of PvP everybody except a few complain. About shields, speed, stamNB's and whatnot. In order to try to balance and make te game more fair, drastic changed have to be made.
This update might wreck PvP, or make it more fun. I don't know. It might take a few iterations to get it fixed.
About Murkmire itself.... i hate swamps. It's wet, dark, cold and full of Argonians. I rather stroll in the desert.٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

FlyingSwan✭✭✭✭✭NoSemi interested as it's new content, but coming back to the game after 18 months break, I can see the game has moved backwards and, under current leadership, I don't see that direction changing.2

The Place by Tony Walsh Please ReadThis is the place in the North West of England
It’s ace, it’s the best and the songs that we sing
From the stands, from our bands set the whole planet shaking
Our inventions are legends! There’s nowt we can’t make and
So we make brilliant music. We make brilliant bands
We make goals that make souls leap from seats in the stands
And we make things from steel and we make things from cotton
And we make people laugh, take the mick summat rotten
And we make you at home and we make you feel welcome
And we make summat happen, we can’t seem to help it
And if you’re looking for history then yes, we’ve a wealth
But the Manchester way is to make it yourself
And make us a record, a new number one
And make us a brew while you’re up, love. Go on!
And make us feel proud that you’re winning the league
And make us sing louder and make us believe it
that this is the place that has helped shape the world
And that this the place where a Manchester girl
Name of Emmeline Pankhurst from the streets of Moss Side
Led a Suffragette City with sisterhood pride
And this is the place with appliance of science
We’re on it, atomic, we strut with defiance
In the face of a challenge we always stand tall
Mancunians in union delivered it all
Such as housing and libraries, and health, education
And unions and co-ops, the first railway station
So we’re sorry! Bear with us! We invented commuters!
But we hope you forgive us – we invented computers!
And this is the place Henry Royce strolled with Rolls
And we’ve rocked and we’ve rolled with our own Northern Soul
And so this is the place to do business, then dance
Where go-getters and goal setters know they’ve a chance
And this is the place where we first played as kids
And me Mam lived and died here, she loved it she did
And this is the place where our folks came to work
Where they struggled in puddles, they hurt in the dirt
And they built us a city. They built us these towns
And they coughed on the cobbles to the deafening sound
Of the steaming machines and the screaming of slaves
They were scheming for greatness, they dreamed to their graves
And they left us a spirit, they left us a vibe
The Mancunian Way to survive and to thrive
And to work and to build, to connect and create and
Greater Manchester’s greatness is keeping it great
And so this is the place now we’ve kids of our own
Some are born here, some drawn here but we all call it home
And they’ve covered the cobbles, but they’ll never defeat
All the dreamers and schemers who still teem through these streets
Because this is a place that has been through some hard times
Oppressions, recessions, depressions and dark times
But we keep fighting back with Greater Manchester spirit
Northern grit, northern wit in Greater Manchester’s lyrics
And there’s hard times again in these streets of our city
But we won’t take defeat and we don’t want your pity
Because this a place where we stand strong together
With a smile on our face, Mancunians Forever
And we’ve got this* as the place where a team with a dream (*Forever Manchester)
Can get funding and something to help with their scheme
Because this is the place that understands your grand plans
We don’t do No Can Do, we just stress Yes We Can!
Forever Manchester’s a charity for people round ‘ere
You can fundraise, donate. You can be a volunteer
You can live local, give local. We can honestly say
We do charity differently, that Mancunian Way
And we fund local kids, and we fund local teams
We support local dreamers to work for their dreams
We support local groups and the great work they do
So can you …help us help… local people like you?
Because this is the place in our hearts, in our homes
Because this is the place that’s a part of our bones
‘Cos Greater Manchester gives us such strength from the fact
That this is the place. We should give something back.
Always remember. Never forget. Forever Manchester.3 -

It's a tiny hit and nothing in compared to the universal nerfing of mag classes (who by the way still have no access to snare break).
Let's compare a 2s snare immunity and 2% speed nerf to my magblades changes which include:- Big nerf to healing from swallow soul
- Complete removal of either damage or healing from refreshing path
- Huge nerf to Healing Ward
- Huge nerf to Dampen Magic
- Merciless Resolve now much easier to dodge
- Zero, not even one, compensatory buffs

maboleth✭✭✭✭✭
✭YesI tested by dueling people on the PTS and while weaker, my mag sorc is still able to deal damage and shield herself. Even though I will have to change some of the parameters. But that's ok, change is not bad.
However, I doubt I will use Overload now because there's no 3rd bar and also hope the changes will see some other benefits in next 2 PTS cycles.0 -

why or why not
lol
I like the name.
But yes, I"m looking forward to it. I play as a Templar so I'm actually getting buffs I've been told and not nerfs.
And there are some gear sets in Murkmire that look perfect for me and I'm looking forward to the upgrade. The only place I ever used shields was in PvP and that was mostly just because everything else I had sucked. So these nerfs likely won't affect me very much.Edited by Jeremy on October 3, 2018 7:58AM0 -

Oh I didn't say the mag changes were good, people just seem to think stamina is gonna be great. Truth is small scale/solo play on all sides is taking another huge hit. I play stamina DK/sorc/templar and magicka NB/sorc so Im well aware of how bad things are all around. But yes I will be fine because Im probably not coming back lol, been gone for a few months now and based on the changes in Murkemire.2 -

I would argue power creep was more of an issue before One Tamriel. I used to out-level entire zones after the first couple of quests and enemies would become so weak they could barely harm me and wouldn't even drop loot (yet still aggro annoyingly). It made questing even less fun than it is now.
But I do agree with you otherwise. The overland content needs to be more challenging. Or at least give high level characters the option to join an instance scaled to a higher difficulty. I can literally kill 99% of everything I encounter while questing in a second.... maybe two. And I don't even play as a damage-dealing class.Edited by Jeremy on October 3, 2018 9:08AM0 -

A poll on the forums is totally not representative of the entire player base.
My wife is never on the forums.... but she is really looking forward to the change.
As are some 10000 others i asked on the streets. In reality the "NO"'s are way outnumbered as happy people are playing people and not forum dwellers. I am here because i cannot play because im in a train.

tunepunk✭✭✭✭✭NoUntil they add some vet mode for overland questing it's not really exciting at all. Doing the story line quests with a max CP character you just steamroll through it. It's the same problem with every expansion/dlc.2

vienna✭✭NoI don't look to any new DLC. I'm playing this game since 3 months or so, for new or casual players are DLC dungeons mission impossible to master, way too hard, why pay money for something you can't play or is frustration to play. I have also Summerset and to lvl up Psijic Order Skill Line is just, eh...I would never buy that again. So when I read about a new DLC, no thx.Edited by vienna on October 3, 2018 9:35AM0

Those new Wolf Hunter dungeons are pretty rough, especially on Veteran. They are not new player friendly.
I wish ZOS would make that more clear. Always this problem happens after a new DLC dungeon content is released. The dungeon is flooded with newer players wanting to try out the new content only to be obliterated and all the drama that often goes along with it. I"m sure many of them would take a refund if they could.
I wasn't overly impressed with the Psijic Order skill line either. Some of the concepts were good, but they were too timid in their finalization. None of them have earned a spot on my skill bar. I have to say I've been impressed by Summerset thus far though. The quests are interesting and it looks great.
