I was on the ESO website and I saw this atrocity.
None of these Argonians have resto staves.
It's completely against ESO lore which states the only viable play style for an Argonian is a healer.
Zos explain your self! You're giving an Argonian players a false sense of being able to be a competent DPS player.

TPishek✭✭✭✭✭Shouldn't your name be "Thrusts-His-Healing-Staff" or something, you give off the impression of being a competent DPS.14 -
Massacre_Wurm✭✭✭✭✭You can be "competent" dd i.e. damage dealer ( not dps because dps is DAMAGE PER SECOND and not a role ) right now.

They are fine dds just like any race in the game. 8% ( or whatever ) difference is not going to make or break your game unless you going for score runs ( less than 1% of playerbase doing it )3 -

I used to limp everywhere. Then I took a healing arrow to the knee.10 -

There's a thing called metonymy. That's what "dps" as a role label is.9 -

Argonians do so little with those weapons that they might as well be healing their opponents. Hmm. Maybe ZOS was onto something there. Admittedly, they are getting 1000 stamina, which is something I suppose; Nords have only 500 more, and no other passives to reinforce their lore as warriors hardened by the tundra, with our resistances nerfed and nothing to show for it. Even puny Elves do more damage now. Khajiit have 85 less Stamina/Magicka than Argonians next patch, but 12% Critical damage, and pretty much every other race either has 2k Stamina/Magicka, 258 Weapon/Spell damage, or both.3 -

I know but this is a bad example imo because it creates confusion. Good examples - "dagger" for rogue or "bow" for ranger. Simple and self-explanatory.
Bu dps is an old and widely used term and also can be used as a verb "to dps something ". Overloaded.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭The racial passives for basically all the races are awful. For the most part they lack flexibility, breadth of play, or even an understanding of elder scrolls lore.
They simply feel lazy.1 -

This ruins my immersion. That's a Bright-Throat body marking, on a crocodile skin body marking. You can't do that! Everyone knows that if you use a body marking on argonians (or khajiit), then they can only use the default skin look.

It's EU vs NA here. We simply use different terms. I know you could agrue it doesn't make sense but that's just how culture between servers is ... personally I think you EU people are the wierd ones 😛1 -

Yep, it is not sticking through armour. ZOS actually designed leather armour with a tail - protection... Now that is immersive stuff I guess....

✭Indeed ..Argonians are horrid DDs. Since the racials are not good, you'll do 90k DPS instead of 93k .. AW-FUL!

Yeah, that is super annoying. You equip any body tattoo and... your scales (or fur if you are khajit) are magically swapped to "factory default"... It is wierd that ZOS still did not adressed it. I mean they obviously care about crown store stuff and it is not a rocket science to figure out that people would buy & use more cosmetic items if those would actually worked as they should...NotaDaedraWorshipper wrote: »@Tommy_The_Gun I mentioned the tail in my "immersion is ruined" comment.

I honestly wish they do this legitly in the game. I remember playing Divinity 2 for the first time earlier this year and the lizards in that game actually get their tails armored up as well! It looks so good too! So many armor sets in ESO would look even better on Argonians if they have some awesome tail armor added to it!
Also, @OP. I assume this thread is a joke, yes?

No, no -- you misunderstand @preevious. The word "viable" means "absolute unquestionable best" nowadays, didn't you hear? The days where it meant "capable, or adequate" are long gone! Get with it, old timer! ;P
See? Proof!
