Maintenance for the week of April 15:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 15
• ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – April 16, 8:00AM EDT (12:00 UTC) - 12:00PM EDT (16:00 UTC)
The issue is resolved, and the North American PC/Mac megaserver is now available. Thank you for your patience!

If they can't even deliver a pet on time, how will they keep up with their own (future) gear grind?

As Zenimax has stated previously, with the Champion System will come Champion Points, and the transition into a monthly(?) gear grind, which would mean they have to program new gear sets every month, in order to keep up. They had an entire month to deliver this Ice Wraith which, need I remind, already has a model and animations, and they've fallen flat. What are we to expect when the Champion System takes effect? New gear just every whenever?

...Okay, rant over. Seriously, though, I'm unable to think of a good excuse as to why this pet hasn't reached my mailbox.

    Not trying to be negative at all...but.
    I don't get peoples infatuation with vanity pets. I will be deleting mine on arrival, but hey that's just me. To each his own.

    I'd rather have zos release stuff hen it's done "right" rather than when they promised it.

    Might be a midnight suprise. Or possibly part of Update 5.

    Where did they say that each month is a new gear set? I dont remember seeing anywhere that every month is a new "season" of gear?
    Force weapon swap to have priority over EVERYTHING. Close enough.
    Make stamina builds even with magicka builds.
    Disable abilities while holding block.
    Give us a REASON to do dungeons more than once.
    Remove PVP AoE CAP. It is ruining Cyrodiil.
    Fix/Remove Forward Camps. They are ruining Cyrodiil.
    Impenetrability needs to REDUCE CRIT DAMAGE. Not negate entire builds.
    Werewolf is not equal to Vamps/Bats.

    It may not be each month, but they did mention that there would be new gear added incrementally. I wasn't sure if it was every month or not, hence the little (?) by my first mention of it, and if anyone would be willing to find the source for the information, that would be helpful.

    They are incompetent and slow , so sure they wont manage to deliver anything on an actually reasonable time frame , but eventually it will get done.
