    They need to spend less time making wild changes to... everything, and more time just making sure things actually work.

    is this still an issue after the today's update?
    Was it only in nonCP campaigns?

    it is not working in no-cp and bg. No dmg or speed buff of passive.

    I truly hate TES Orcs. They are weak, in lore, racial and personality.
    While, the Orcs in WoW are truly conquers.

    Edit: the truth is, these orcs in TES we're elves or Altmer/Dunmer elves that followed the wrong path and became what they are.. .a poor version of orcs.

    Seems kind of unfair to put up epic wow drawings and then a picture of a lame orc from eso ingame!

    Epic WOW drawings are just that - drawings. In-game chars look like Oblivion-meets-cartoon-meets-lsd.

    I hope there's a fix soon because it's true that passives don't work in BGs... Crazy that this slipped QA/QC...

    Losing 258 weapon damage is like telling a player to play without a Mundus... Then the other passives like extra stam, health and running speed is like asking them to play only with weapon, jewelry and monster set.

    Looks like it's just no-CP areas, and it's just the weapon damage passive that becomes inactive. Hope they fix it quickly. All my favorite stam chars are Orcs. I've been doing CP Cyro in the meantime but the bad performance makes me miss BG's. IC isn't populated enough to be a good alternative either. Really hoping it is addressed in the next maintenance patch.

    Ohh... I changed ALL my stam PvE toons into Orcs but PvP with pretty much all of them. It makes all those wins feel better but it makes you feel cheated AF to think you used race tokens on these and have been dealt a handicap for it.

    P.S. When I say all my PvE toons, that means at least 4....

    I remember someone did the exact same thing in another discussion not so long ago. Gave me deja vu.
    Wonder if I shall post another counter comparison to this one aswell google_thinking-face_9914_mysmiley.net.png

    If this game-breaking bug won't be fixed anytime soon can we at least get a race change token ?

    Second this. Better yet.. give us 2 tokens. One to race change now, another to change back to Orc once it's fixed.

    To be real, and to compare the things on the same level, WoW Orc are actually like this:

    You took an artistic drawing of most notable and epic WoW Orc Warchief Grommash Hellscream, yeah really good comparison.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno, is this being worked on now, will console have to deal with an absurdly long delay after PC sees the eventual fix?

    You do realize that bosmers are much stronger than you think and if they get steath back, they WILL be nerfed in some major aspect

    They removed the damage from stealth bonus that both Bosmer and Khajiit had as racial passives before the revamp. If they just restore the stealth radius detection portion of it (as Khajiit now has), it will still be an overall nerf from the previous Bosmer passive. And it might encourage more people to play wood elves again.

    100% agree. With all of the random off-topic stuff in this thread, I think some people are missing the point and this issue isn't getting as much attention as it should.
