It was always false hope to think it honestly might be added, but it would really have been nice for magicka characters to have real access to non-stave weapons. This whole "play ESO how you want" is just not true when weapon lines don't scale "how you want" and the having Rich claim as such on stream is just not fair to potential new players or those of us that have been here a bit longer.

    Hey we get a revamped skill line!

    Not a brand new class, not an entirely new skill line, this time we get just a revamped skill line.

    Blackreach looks amazing but the feature-laziness continues.

    I predicted the bare minimum to sell a expansion and that seems to be what we are getting. Let’s hope for some last minute surprises.

    this.
    Shortly after the formation of the Ebonheart Pact, a Nord woman was given a tour of the Tribunal Temple. When later asked about the experience, she seemed upset. Suffice to say, the Dunmer were not pleased to hear this, and thus they inquired further.
    "Well," the Nord frowned, "the priests were very angry and unwelcoming. They kept shouting things at me like "you can't drink that mead in here!" and "somebody stop her, she's running naked!" and "we can't catch her; she's covered in grease!""

    If it wasn't for the sales pages being up to get us to spend our money, I'd agree... But they would advertise anything like a new skill line. :neutral:

    Antiquities sounds like a rebranding of psijiic portals and mage books almost, but this time with mini games instead of just going to a location, heh. edit: and even more reason to need to do it to get the gear items from it. but I am looking forward to the new build opportunities all the same.

    I’m sure NPCs will get some fancy new moves like in previous DLC while my character is stuck hitting people in the ankle with Low Slash.

    They did say Antiquities has two skill lines, and there's the Vampire rework. No Spellcrafting, no new weapons. Can't say I'm surprised. But Antiquities seems intriguing.

    Nah, my dunmer ashlander uses “stamina” weapons. Works fine, and it’s a very different play style.

    Not skill lines, mini games. It's like lockpicking advanced.

    Kinda disappointed this still isn't a thing yeah. But this expansion has no new class or skill line, just revamped stuff. For most people the combat gameplay won't change at all.

    Welp, no 1-hand + Rune. I'm disappointed honestly. I guess they focused on the Vampire skill line instead. Not complaining about the Vampire skill line but I figured we'd get a brand new one too. Hopefully they will really come through with the Vampire skill line.

    As long as light attacks scale with stamina for "stam" weapons (and this is a minimum), stamina weapons will have niche usage for magicka characters at best.

    Treasure hunting saved the expansion lol. Assuming its fun. Otherwise a big meh chapter. Even the collectors edition items are kinda yikes lol. Standard for me boys. Hoping for more originality next year.

    Its probably similar to Thieves guild/Leger skill lines.

    I was hoping for new weapon lines... figured no new class, but I was really hoping for something.

    Antiquities is supposedly going to have 2 skill lines, but I'm assuming they will be more like profession lines, less like Guild or Weapon lines...

    i think the likelihood for a q4 new skill line is probably pretty low? They'd probably announce such a big new feature now... but who knows

    Very, very low. I think only Transmutation was added as a feature in a Q4 DLC but I am not sure about this.
