Issue with Jewelry Research time

I am currently an ESO plus subscriber and started researching on another toon just for the heck of it. I am on my last trait and it is over 57 days?! That is not right. Has anyone else had this issue? Has ZOS mentioned anything about researching bugs? It has been a long time since i completed jewelry researching on my main crafter so I don't really remember the precise times but should it be about 26 days? 57days?! WTF is this sorcery?

    Without any points in the passives that reduce research times, this is how long the 9th trait takes. It is the same as Gear Traits in that regard.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Looks like you don't have the passive on that character that cuts down research times. 57 days is the correct time without the passive.

    I had full skill points into lapidary research by the time I was down to my last trait. I do think you a bug, though. With eso+ you should not have more than 54 days for your last trait as it reduces times by 10% in addition to your passive. You might want to start a ticket for this.

    I put my points back into the research time passive and it changed to 26 days. No ticket needed. yay!

    Well I was wrong about the number of days anyway.

    We have all been there. I spent 30 minutes last week beating on a target dummy with just horrendous results. Apparently, I forgot my Racial and the last DW passive. haha.

    I was just about to suggest putting the points in, it will reduce the time remaining.

    Also, we sometimes get a research time reducer as a daily reward. This is a good time to use one. I have a few laying around cuz i am i am done with the trait slog....

    LOL I forget to put the racial passive points back in everytime they make changes to the races and refund them back to us. I once tanked vet pledges without them and didn't even notice.

    Last week, I took my Stamblade out in PvP after a long break ... discovered I was running the wrong cloak morph after about an hour of gameplay. B)

    Research still takes way too long IMO. And Jewelry research is the worst since they only give you one queue. The Research process is also illogical. Why should random trait take 27 days vs. another that takes 1 day, just because you did them in succession. All just to keep you logging in and maybe spend money in the Crown Store.

    I've never really agreed specifically with the time gate aspect of the research system, but logical or not there definitely needs to be some sort of increasing requirement for further trait research to keep it feeling rewarding.

    Gameplay will always trump realism in a fantasy rpg.
