Are you looking forward to 1.6? Or does it give you nightmares?

Actually when testing today, Inferno gave 20% crit as opposed to the 10% from Magelight. They don't stack though, always the highest applies.
Isn't reflected in the tooltip so I wrote a /bug, but maybe it's intended who knows (wouldn't be nice having guild skills do better than redundant class skills).
Might have to morph to Inner Light IV to see the 20% bonus.
There were so many things I was looking forward to in 1.6 like Burning Spellweave, staves scaling with spell power, no hardcaps. Now spellweave is nerfed, spell power and weapon power are equal now but weapon power can be stacked higher, most set bonuses got nerfed into what they gave when they were overcharged, number inflation...Edited by wrathofrraath on February 25, 2015 6:05AMVokul Lovaas - V16 Magicka Dragonknight

WarrioroftheWind_ESO✭✭✭✭Hurry up and release 1.6! I'm sick of 100% healing debuffs & WoE/ purge bug.ezareth_ESO wrote: »I'll say this, at 70cp I had so much fun pvping.. Even more fun than live.
at 3600cp.. I'm very worried.
I'm just going to stay the hell out of Cyrodiil come 1.6 and carebear it up grinding CP until I want to blow my brains out and then grind some more. Maybe by the time I get a fair number of CP they'll fix some of the more troubling issues I saw in PTS and I can come play again. Who knows, maybe by then Imperial City will be released. At this rate I'm expecting it to be the freaking PvP *expansion* content.
I didn't spend nearly as much time on PTS as alot of people I know, but what I did work with was enough to show me that it would add more fun layers to the game. The specific spec I play isn't at all geared to high dps, but I doubt I'd want to. Anything else would be less fun or boring. I've read up on alot of nerfs, and I honestly don't like alot of them, but they're not a game-breaker for me. I'd look for ways to work around them or work with them. Similar to my job, if I decided to quit every time something came up I didn't like, I wouldn't be there for 10+ years.
There's only one mmo I've played that irrevocably alienated me to the point that I refused to buy any additional content and have barely even logged on over the past year. ESO has absorbed that much of my time. 1.6 is very much a buggy broken mess, but honestly what isn't? People will either have fun with it or do something else, or just learn to shrug it off.
I really do think the champ point system needs to be adjusted similar to Skyrim's leveling system. For leveling your earlier levels started out at 5 skillups=level. Once you hit a certain point you needed 10 skillups. Then when you got even higher it took 20. A staggered tier system of leveling would probably more friendly all around to players and less punishing or grindcentric.
I still don't like the numbers bloat. It leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Maybe a slight increase I could understand but this is just bloat pure and simple and as far as I've seen has done nothing but open up industrial-sized oil drums full of worms. IMO scrap it entirely, but ZOS seems to be far too invested dto back out now. They'd have to drop release alltogether and an entire months worth of testing. It'd be sink or swim from then on.
The little bit of time I DID do on PTS and pvped some I noticed I got a reasonable amount of champ xp from just pvping. I would say instead of avoiding pvp, embrace it and make it work. Struggle beats stagnation any day and personally it would make for a more challenging style of play than grindtastic grinds.
As much crap as I give you/have given you, I would say keep on trucking. Keep finding new ways to royally *** off your enemy, and your enemy will find more ways to kill you, or make fun of you either way.2 -
ghengis_dhan✭✭✭There is no option for "Other" or "Mixed feelings". I'm in the latter.
While I see the benefits of 1.6, some aspects and outstanding bugs bother me.
Just yesterday, I was dueling a Templar and lost all ability to generate ultimate. He must have dropped Ice Comet on me about 6-8 times, while I only had the ultimate I started with. I tried everything thinking they changed the rules: light attacks, heavy attacks, wide range of abilities including healing. Nothing was giving me ultimate.
Fortunately, it seems impossible to kill a sorcerer with all 3,600 CP, so I didn't need ultimate to survive. There were a couple of times I knocked him down, he was at low health, and I could have Soul Assaulted him, but nothing....
EDIT: Personally, I'd like to see ultimate generate like dragon shouts in Skyrim. Wait long enough, and you will get it back. I never really liked how ultimate is generated from combat.Edited by ghengis_dhan on February 26, 2015 4:49PM"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Observant✭✭✭✭The thought of 1.6 going live terrifies me.I don´t know, i´m a bit afraid, is it true that with the update all our characters, skills and everythink will be erased...?
Absolutely not true. Where did you even read such absurd comments?
Skills & Attributes get reset, and you get refunded the points to put them back into whatever you want.
This actually works in your favor because of the amount of changes they're making all in one swift patch.Edited by Observant on February 26, 2015 5:55PMVehemence0 -

They will be reset. Any experience gained will remain, you will just have to reassign your attribute and skill points.I don´t know, i´m a bit afraid, is it true that with the update all our characters, skills and everythink will be erased...?

cozmon3c_ESO✭✭✭✭✭The thought of 1.6 going live terrifies me.Zos haven't finished balancing or sorting out all of the PvP bugs from their first effort... why would I think a complete game-changing system overhaul would be any different?
I expect months of new bugs and broken mechanics...
A month?? i would say a year at least.

leeux✭✭✭✭✭The thought of 1.6 going live terrifies me.At least, the thing that saves 1.6 a bit (for me, just personal opinion) is that my VR14 still mows through hordes of enemies in the VR10 zone like nothing has changed, using the same build and skills as on live
That means that, at least, I wouldn't be dying all the time while questing and stuff!
I tested that by doing the same thing on live and then on PTS, just to get a feeling on how the game-play change.
And also, tested doing the Lost City of Na Totambu (public delve) on Live and then on PTS, and it felt easier on PTS

And had that templar used all his CP ?
The not working ultimate gain is a common and game breaking bug that seems to be connected to the passives of the warrior tree...DAGON - ALTADOON - CHIM - GHARTOK
