The Justice System and New Toons

I do enjoy the justice system, I think it adds a lot to the game.
There are a few issues.
It is far to easy to "harm" civilians and guards. A miss-click (light/heavy attack), a toggled AoE ability - do this in the wrong place and you'll land yourself in a world of pain.
The system needs to be made a little more lenient to new toons/1st time offenders (likely to be new players as well) - to properly explain what the justice system is and how it works. I felt on the PTS that the Justice system lacks any sort of intro/good explanation and that's a bad thing.
How will a new player know where to sell fenced goods?
How will a new player know where and how to remove the bounty?

Perhaps designing a quest within the tutorial in coldharbour to unlock the system would be a great way to introduce the system to players and make them aware that once in Tamriel their actions matter!

    It is my understanding they are changing the Coldharbor tutorial on release, not sure if its been done in the PTS, but maybe they will include it.

    I'd prefer a button you could toggle on/off that protects you from accidentally harming the guards (especially since I like to spam boundless storm on my sorc for the speed boost through town)

    You can turn off possibility to harm innocent, check Gameplay settings.

    But I agree, this system definitely need a tutorial.

    Oh, sweet!
    I wish it could be hotkeyed, but that will satisfy me for now.

    Thanks

    What does that turn off exactly? Does that mean the spell spammers can still spam and not actually hurt innocents? We've all had issues hitting wrong keys, especially looting and get some lag and your ultimate fires off. Just wondering what you can't do if that is turned on. I've been a bit worried about hitting a key at the wrong time as well. Glad to know this is there, depending on what it does. I'm not on PTS. Just don't have the time to test. Reading the PTS forums as much as possible to stay up to date for when they release it. :(

    I know ZOS have said there'll be a tutorial about pickling locked chests in an expanded intro .. or maybe the original one they had in beta till they hacked it in half right before release due to people QQing it took too long to get to the 'real' game .. I haven't seen a comment that implied there'd be a Justice tutorial as well.

    Exactly! You can't even attack town folks, but still can steal items from their pockets.
