Lol piling up? So that's what 1 maybe 2? Just bank them and wait like everyone else does everytime they do this. Your 15 vouchers will still be there

I'm currently sitting on 15 of them myself. Writs on 36 characters a day makes them add up quickly.

>_> how do you manage 36 toons a day? I thought 13 was time consuming.

Do you have a system worked out?

Running two instances at the same time. Do one account while other is in load screen. Can get them done in just over an hour.

I'm content with running 18 for now. And I even find that a chore. I think I can take a break though, I have so much stuff in my craft bag that I could probably still drive relatively solid sales on my guilds for a couple of months just from that reserve

Lol, try 28 characters doing writs. what sort of pleb only does 1 or 2?

Also, as someone else in this thread said: It’s completely reasonable to think that they shouldn’t have master writs for motifs that are literally impossible to learn at the moment and to suggest otherwise is taking white-knighting to comical levels.

I usually don't do writs on every character every day, but when the Anniversary Jubilee comes around I am absolutely going to do them every. freaking. day.

LOL the average ESO player only does 1 or 2 characters. What sort of gaming addiction do you have to need to do 26 toons worth of writs XD

It is reasonable but reasonable doesn't mean it's a valid claim or expectation as it is also reasonable that they would put motifs out early so you'd have something to do when they do come out. It's their game and to suggest I'm white knighting is you taking your temper tantrum to comical levels. The game is for people 17+, act it instead of insulting people because you can't defend your idea well

I doubt ZOS minds the money. and it's not unreasonable for a paying customer to ask for honest advertising.

reasonable [claim]: having modest or moderate expectations; not making unfair demands.
Pretty sure that's a valid claim, mate. Don't try this "lolol umadbruh" nonsense with me when you're already shoving your foot in your own mouth by defending an idiotic viewpoint.

Answer me this: is it reasonable for a game to put an objective in that is literally impossible to complete? Because that's what's happening here. Whether you're talking about the master writs or even just the achievement, we have objectives right now that are literally impossible. Not "oh this is just super challenging I need to get better", but "the means by which to complete this objective literally do not exist in the game."
So how is "hey ZOS, can you not give us impossible objectives" not a valid and reasonable request?

I can't wait to see what kind of mental gymnastics you try to pull to defend that.

I'm also very annoyed at st the appearance of impossible writs. Especially as, with the events coming up (jester's festival likely followed by anniversary event), i"m going to be at wit's end just keeping enough space to handle my job, as such, with serving as a motif repository for the guild's trade process. When you're handling the trade between people who know motifs and those who don't (which I do for the festivals every year), it is a strain on space. So, yes, it's perfectly reasonable for me to be more than upset at wasting it on writs that I can't solve right now. And writs are most of what I do anyhow.
(and yes, I do a lot, 17 characters' worth every day).

VelimOrthic

I know it's been said before, but the inclusion in the writs has everything to do with advertising.

My suggestion would be to watch Carlin's classic bit on advertising. And then after that, ask yourself how things would be in an economic system with none. Then ask, which systems have ensured there wasn't any. Then ask how much fun it sounds like to live in those systems.

Me? I think I'll deal with the advertising.

abigfishy

You have no idea how good you have it here. You know that in other games skill points are hidden behind styles and you really need to spend hours each day on the auction house or open your wallet a lot if you want to have any chance to get them?

Asardes

If the motif is not available, just put the master writs away till it becomes available. There are 70+ motifs in the game ATM, and most master writs don't require any motif since they're alchemy & enchanting. So you won't more than a dozen New Moon Priest master writs in the next couple of months even if you run writs at an industrial level.

daemonios

Levels of rationalization of an objectively bad choice to include achievements and master writs that cannot be completed:

"You don't *have* to do it, so it's OK."
"Other games have it worse, so it's OK."

I would love to see the day where these decisions could be judged on their own merits, rather than whether they impact you personally or if others are doing it worse.

What part is actually dishonest about it? It doesn't say it is available right now, it says in the achievement where you get it. The only person assuming it's out now is you because instead of looking for the information in the notes (where they release that information) you look at achievements and just assume you're right and they're out. You're wrong and you can't even admit it.

Lol "reasonable" is subjective "mate", I realize you can only work with dictionary definitions so let me explain this to you. A reasonable claim to you, doesnt mean it's reasonable to everyone. So when you demand the devs change and cater things to you because you can't bank a few motifs you're being selfish. You do know that definition right?

Answer me this: is it reasonable for a game to put an objective in that is literally impossible to complete?
Yes, it is, why wouldn't it be. It's called an advertisement. You'd know and understand their purpose if you didnt have 26 toons and spent time in the real world. Let me get the definition for you.
ad·ver·tise·ment
/ˈadvərˌtīzmənt,ədˈvərdizmənt/ noun a notice or announcement in a public medium promoting a product, service, or event or publicizing a job vacancy.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I wonder if they're trying to advertise the motifs (like they've been doing for years) before they come out. Oh jesus, did I figure it out? Does not clearing the motif impede the actual game in anyway? No???

Calm down and go get an extra hobby. It's just a motif and it'll be released soon. They've been adding in the achievements and writs in promoting like this for years now, it's not new to this.

Btw 26 toons x 205 inventory spaces =5,330 toon inventory spaces. Bank them and stop crying
