Scalecaller Peak HM is totally BROKEN!

gatekeeper13

I did vSCP HM on my magsorc a few months ago and had zero crashes. Now that I made a new magcro, I wanted to get him the "Plague of Peryite" title too but didnt know it was literally IMPOSSIBLE.

Me and my group have been trying for the last 2 hours to complete the HM and in total we had more than 30 crashes. 2/3 attempts could not be completed because of crash, be it the tank or the DDs. And when we did everything perfect, we couldnt get the boss lower than 50% health because someone was 100% about to crash. 2 members left, 2 others arrived, crashes still there. We had to quit when two of us crashed simultaneously.

Seriously ZOS, when are you going to fix your product?

Yup, been trying to complete for 4 weeks, it’s terrible , we’ve given up until it gets fixed. Funnily enough non hm I never crash

Tremuto

Thanks for the notice, I'll be telling my pugs to please not do HM for SCP today.

Just did Scalecaller HM last night. My group did not crash as much as you did but still had alot of crashes. Almost gave up but got it finally.

Probably don't want to hear this, but SCP has improved since Markath. It used to bluescreen at least 2 people on normal, veteran, and hardmode on Zaan. I've cleared it a couple times since then, but when it gets a little laggy, the group tends to pucker up.

For me and everyone I spoke to or attempted HM with, SCP is way worse than it was before.

Who knows what causes all these crashes. Thing is I am afraid to update my Nvidia drivers cause I read that the latest drivers caused even more problems in ESO... For some players at least...

Totally agree. And not saying its fixed. Zaan will still DC you, but not automatically on every pull as it did last month.

Can't speak for last month. Last time I visited and completed HM was like 5 months ago.

It has been broken since Markarth. I hope they decide to fix it. But not optimistic.

Yeah he's right this is actually the improved version. She used to disconnect at least 2-3 people every single time she went for her shield without fail.

Played it on normal an hour ago. Two of us were offline for a short period because the game crashed. I was playing it on my MacBook Pro and the game crashed in the middle of a big fight, just before the 3rd boss (Concotor Mortieu).

starshine123b16_ESO

Final Boss - SCP (Zaan) HM
Tank 4 DC
DDs 5 DC
Healer 1 DC
In about 1 hour.
Unplayable at the moment!

starshine123b16_ESO

All crashes to Desktop.

PaddyVu

Crash will happen every 10 mins, if u want to do it, better shut down the game and reopen every 3 wipes

ccfeeling

I could confirmed on PS4 NA, boss fight DC too much.

Araneae6537

I hope a complete fix is in the works! I want to work on getting the vSCP achievements!

siddique

Hardmode is broken. We reached Zaan with zero crashes, read the scroll. And by the first ice statue phase, three people crashed at the same time.

Next pull, two people crashed together.
Next pull, one guy crashed.
Next pull, two people crashed together, yet again.
Next pull, one guy crashed. By this time we were seeing a pattern almost.
Four more pulls, numerous blue screens. Until we gave up.

sjean73

this should have been posted in the bug reports
if its like the werewolf skills line it should be fix with next expansion

AyaDark

Joke:
Zaan was fixed. A lot of players report, that it crash gamers with blue screen.
We fixed this problem.
Now it crash gamers with orange screen

looks like "Crashcaller Peak" suits better

MajThorax

Crashed 2 times yesterday. Decided to not queue again for scallecaller peak till the next incremental patch on January. I wish the zos staff Happy Holidays.

It was reported more than a month ago, when Markarth went live.

gatekeeper13

Looks like a lot of people have faced serious issues with vSCP HM. It wasn't only us who tried to do it the last two days.

ZOS do sth asap. You are an AAA company, not some low-funds indie developer. This bug shouldn't be up for so long for no reason.

Jesus Christ! Glad I didnt experience the "broken" version.

Grandchamp1989

Many are broken.

White Gold Tower have ghost on the final boss that doesn't die so she literally can't be killed and team has to kill itself to reset the fight.

Fang Lair still crash

I literally crashed in Bloodroot Forge 3 times.
1 time I crashed standing still out of combat about to check my bag... That's kinda amazing.

Crashed in march of sacrifice

3 crashes yesterday trying to complete maelstrom

Mr_Arce88

What a good time to be trying no death achievements and have crashes all around. Indeed merry x-mas with zos.

PS4 NA

Ran it again last night after long break .

OMG , HM blue screen , crash are not yet fix .

This company is amazing !

emilyhyoyeon

I ran it a few days ago when it was the pledge. Attempted about 10 HM pulls; 5 crashes from one DD, 2 crashes from me, 1 crash from tank. Half the group was too demoralized to just do non HM for the completion and didn't bother logging back in.

All crashes were crash to desktop with no crash report. No blue screen crashes or anything

themachine250

I made a previous post detailing it was impossible for me to make it pass 1st boss on Ps5 as I kept “grey screening”. Everyone else on PS4 were unaffected..., at least w the 1st boss anyways. Extremely frustrating indeed

Everest_Lionheart

My XB1 prog group is having the same issue. Crashes, desynchs and lag. Spent way too many hours in there thinking, maybe this time nobody will crash. All 4 of us are affected occasionally 2 at a time but usually just 1. About to open a ticket and see if I can get a free skin for all the potions, soul gems and time wasted.

PaddyVu

Crash still happen. But i found a way to prevent it from crash but only 50% chance. Borrow a friend account and use both account go to the last boss. Now when u solo zaan hard mode, crash may happen to u or your friend account, if it's friend, u are fine to kill her, if it's u, reset and pray RNG crash. That's the only way to prevent crash when solo

EsoGoing

Scalecaller is still bugged. One crash during the first boss and then a few crashes during last boss on hardmode. Tank and healer got DC at the same time. We gave up then. (Playstation)
