"To answer the itemization question: We have done a lot of work to make the itemization fun and exciting in the next major update. There are lots of cool unique sets for players to chase after in multiple different areas. We're doing extensive balance work to make sure they all give competitive bonuses instead of the current paradigm where everyone just chases the few uber powerful sets. This will allow players to customize sets to their playstyle instead of just getting whatever adds the most damage.
Additionally the new content has a short term and a long term item chase as well. To go hand in hand with that the power spike on the new items is bigger, so players are more rewarded for upgrading their gear."

✭✭✭✭✭Also changes to XP and XP areas
"We are aware of balance concerns from players with more champion points. As Phil mentioned the system was designed to help keep players closer in power level with diminishing returns and enlightenment bonus XP. In the future we can implement catchup mechanics so the first 400 champion ranks require less experience, helping get new players catch up.
In terms of XP, we're actually buffing for some areas in the next major update. Specifically public dungeons and craglorn are being increased. Additionally we're increasing the XP that veteran level quests give so there's more of a parity between gains between questers and grinders. Lastly we're reducing the amount of XP required to get a veteran rank so players can get to the max level content sooner."

I read that on the Xbox console AMA as well. I'm thinking it'll be a very small percent 5 pc bonus...i.e "2% chance to increase dmg by 10% against targets with shields. Effect lasts 10 seconds and cannot occur more than once every 6 minutes" or something along those lines.

✭✭✭✭Glad I've been saving mah keys. I wonder if they have a set that does more damage against block. As a light armor Dk my bubble was my only defense, and I sacrifice offense for it rather than gain offense for it. Hopefully these changes keep such things in mind.Edited by Armitas on June 11, 2015 7:35PMRetired.

Combine this with apparent plans to make Shadow Cloak no longer be countered by Detection Potions, and Nightblade will arguably have the best mitigation in the game."If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion." -- the 14th Dalai Lama

Ofc, would be an idea. But either blocking nor shields are a problem for my stamina NB. I just can permadodge and ignore Harness. But I agree that there should ba a set countering shieldstacking and perma blocking so fights wont be endless.0 -

I have come across some really good players who can hunt me down no matter how many times I streak. I recommend using a distance closer that has a stun built in.Big'Tone-V16 DC Sorc AR31

There are ways if you have a spammable gabcloser. But just stamina builds with 2h or NBs have such a spammable gabcloser. And even with such an oportunity. In a small fight a good sorc usually can escape very easy.0 -

I have a nightblade and i personally don't agree with that change, i think its going to make Dark Cloak Overpowered

They should change their dev tracker to monitor the forums they actually show up on rather than this thing I'm typing on. Seriously, what is this thing I'm on even for?http://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/39gv5r/the_elder_scroll_online_tamriel_unlimited_team/cs3bmlh
