Do I need a separate ESO Plus subscription for PTS?

I have ESO Plus. I play on the NA server using Windows. When I log into the PTS, my ESO Plus subscription doesn't carry over. Do I need a separate ESO Plus subscription for the PTS?

There's no reason for it in the PTS, you get or need any benefit from it there.

I'm new to the PTS. My inventory filled up awfully quickly. Is there some reason you don't need the craft bag on the PTS?

Mr_Stach

Nothing from PTS carries over to live, it's really just a testing environment to try out the new stuff and test for bugs. You can try the content out no problem but the purpose isn't really for regular adventures like in the Live Game.

In reality, it's not even for feedback or opinions, it's for bug testing. They rarely ever take any player feedback into consideration unless it has to do with bugs. I haven't been on PTS in years because it is basically pointless... this last PTS cycle saw the smallest turnout for a major update in years IMO. Other players are also getting tired of having their PTS input ignored completely so it just becomes a waste of time as whatever we're given on PTS is what we're getting Live- minus some bug fixes or nerfs if they believe something is overperforming.

Thanks! That clarifies things quite a bit for me.
