Which playerbase has the past few updates damaged the most?

I'd say much of the above. I don't PVP but I see a LOT of PVP complaints, on the forums, on steam, in zone chat...anywhere you go.
---So PVP customers appear to be hurting pretty bad.

I do overland content and vanilla vets. I have had a TON of issues with crashes, bosses being buggy, I mean the amount of broken stuff is all over the board. Others have said the same (outside of the fact there are random people in the groups I am in seeing the same thing I am).
---So PVE customers appear to be hurting pretty bad.

I also play solo. Do a fair amount of house decorating. My house initially had invisible walls added in the Markarth update (those thankfully have been fixed). I currently have chairs I cant sit it, I see others saying the same.
---So Solo customers appear to be hurting as well.

I also play daily and see much of this stuff happening daily regardless of content. Because some of this is in groups, they are also seeing this stuff. Whether they play daily or not, I dont know.
---So Daily customers appear to be experiencing issues as well, and daily.

Why do you think a lot of PvP players either quit, took a brake or are in PvE at the moment.

Edit: past few updates can be changed to past few years of neglectance over the past few years for PvP.

I don't think I've managed one trial since Markarth without someone dcing or crashing. IR, GH progs have been put on hold and getting a good score is a matter of luck on whether its a support or dd who dcs.
It's the worst patch yet. I've seen long time players leave due to it. It's affecting everybody and will continue to do so if more of the player base leave.

PvP, and PvE solo/group end-game, or basically anything that a freeze, lag spike, crash, might cause you a wipe, and cost you the score/achievement/run progression.

Healers, specifically. It's not even close.

PVPers especially, but Raideen is right in that the state of the game is pretty bad for a lot of people.

I did however fix the issue with the chairs but it forced me to pull them farther out from all the tables than I would have liked

And I want to PVP but due to all the issues I have slowly been losing the drive. Just the difference between Cyrodiil and a normal zone in terms of performance is a night and day difference before you even get into a fight.

Everyone. We've received some very nice content but the game is riddled with problems in both pve and pvp.

Endgame PvE and endgame PvP are both in a very bad place right now.

I picked other, because I play all of it (PvP, group PvE and solo PvE) and I see crashes everywhere.

None...it's a video game, nobody was damaged.

I would say end game content, be it PVP or PVE raiding. This is where you are going to feel the performance issues the most. You dont need your skills to fire if all you do is ERP under a bridge in Riften...

Every player. I’ve crashed doing dungeons, overland, in PvP and just standing in Stormhaven. Not to mention that light attack bug effected everyone universally.

Everything bar roleplayers I guess. Everything about this game has become recycled copy and paste laziness. The quality of the games end game content has pretty much taken a nose dive off a cliff. Bugs, crashes, unbalanced and to be quite frank extremely dull. Myself and a lot of people are sadly addicted to this sinking ship at this rate we're probably going down with it. This game needs not only an upgrade within the game but I think the team behind it also need to hard look at themselves. It's getting really embarrassing for Zenimax.

PvP for sure. Freezes every 5-10 minutes in Cyrodiil on any campaign with fighting and more than 10 players.

PvE has some crashes but there is no comparison.

I would also have selected “Solo Players” for the same reason, I don’t get heals anymore from other players in Cyrodiil since I play solo there.

I am going to go with this.

PVP players are damaged the most:
Skills do not press in pvp, target do not work correct, some bad changes.

Tanks - toxic community with low skilles that force tanks to play stupid gear for "META", with 200 k dps in sum in trials.

Healers: Because they play that bad and it is to much of healers like that, that trully good healers can not find party, because people think, that healers are useless, and it is part true, because 1 button mutagen spamers are not needed, 95% of healers i see do only this. Some people even did not see good healers and what they can do for all there play. So it is understandable, that they do not understand why healers are good.
And again toxic community.

PVE: Some dunguans crashes. People who try to make hard content -> crash on 3 in 1 and etc.

Others: Crashes, some lags, but no heawy problems.

PvE Players

"PVE" is a pretty broad term.

Doubt roleplayers feel a lot of problems with the new patch.

People who play a lot of group content such as dungeons and trials most likely experience problems.
80-90% of my group content has experienced crashes. A lot of waiting to get people back in once they crash to desktop..

This, lots of crashes in trials and dungeons something who was rare before.
Has been more crashes in Cyrodil too but less and I have not crashed there so less affected.

Obviously the changes to 12 man groups and no cross healing has hurt lots of players but mine PvP group has adjusted.

The changes in PVP to healers and the 12 player groups are horrible changes, its pushing the more casual PVP player out the game.

While I can do dungeon on later day or simply go fish, PvPers have to play in unresposible environment. That amplified by amount of people due to situation in the world and patches that should fix things made it worse.

My guess is it's probably about the same percentage across the board, but with certain groups having a lower population percentage, it'll be felt more in those (such as PvP).

I used to be a daily player (PvE), but it's sad to say I haven't logged in for over a week now.

The "Competitive Playerbase" is affected most, PvE or PvP doesn't matter.
