When will new vampire skill line be revealed

Cameron991

Im am a huge sucker for vampires no pun intended lol, but I have been looking so forward to a vampire chapter for the longest time. Anyways I am an Xbox player so I don’t get pts or anything so I was curious if any of you pc players have any idea when they will start showing the vampire skill line rework. My guess would be when they show Greymoor pts but when would that usually be. if there was a pattern in the past chapter when would the new pts come out around.

Haha I'm right there with you (On PC though)


WHEEEEEEEN??!

If iremember correctly Chapter PTS is 5 Weeks in duration.
So it should be 2nd or 3rd week of april when it hits pts.
Since they often do a announcement stream and show of all the new stuff, that should happen also 1st or 2nd week of april.

Just a guess.

Probably would have been revealed at E3 but with that canceled probably have a special stream in the next few weeks showcasing Greymoor and the new vamp stuff.

I think I found this on reddit.

I suspect there'll also be a change to mist form. My money's on it becoming a functional invisibility, like current nightblade stealth. Mist already visually makes vamps invisible, and it's long past time that nightblades lost that unique advantage.

I've not seen any details about the elite transform though.

Invisibility is the only thing Nightblades really have, take that away and there would be no point playing one if vampires also gained it.

I really hope they don't do that... What would be the point in nightblade after that? Some people have also suggested it could behave like streak. This again I think would be a bad idea. If it got faster the more you fed and you could feed on players(maybe operating similar to meditate major protection during feed etc...) that would be fun, enjoyable and unique to play.

Lies.

Nightblades have 15 abilities just like every other class.

Unlike every class, nightblades have a huge advantage for thieving and assassination. Which are really well designed systems but a lot of players probably ignore them because they don't want to play nightblades. I know I don't. I hate them.

Guess what? Devs aren't going to make any more thief or assassination content if only the nightblade mains are playing them.

I'm expecting Greymoor PTS to start Monday 13 April 2020. This is based on announced release date for PC, what happened last year with Elsweyr, and the fact that USA doesn't have a Federal holiday on Easter Monday.

I'll wait to read the v6.0.0 patch notes, see what we're going to get and roll with that. I've no time for uninformed/misinformed speculation or fake news.

Yes.

Thieving and assassination content are well designed and something I might enjoy if I could play them properly, with a stealth like nightblades have.

It's majorly crazy balls that ZO released two DLCs with this substantial extra gameplay, which can only be properly played by one class.

Not that ESO should have classes anyway but that's a whole different argument.

And while we're at it, in all of the single player games, invisibility is an illusion magic spell. So if any class should have it as an exclusive ability, it would be warden and / or necromancer.
