PTS Patch Notes v12.1.4

ZOS_Kevin

Welcome to The Elder Scrolls Online PTS v12.1.4! For this final week of PTS, the main focus is fixing bugs for Solo Dungeons and Nowhere Vault. Your testing of both of these new play environments has been helpful to creating a better play experience during U51 launch.

Between now and U51 launch, the team will be focused on more improvements and bug fixes. Additionally, we will be reviewing your combat feedback and going over the changes to combat one more time to make final adjustments.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this PTS cycle. And please share any additional feedback during this final week. This update is around 183.42MB in size. Thanks!
