Dragonstar Arena (DSA) VR16

Swarog · August 2015

Dragonstar Arena is my favorite dungeon. I've spent a lot of time in it and I want more. But it will be boring and obsolete to play VR16 at VR14 DSA.
Scale up Dragonstar Arena to VR16 please.

Dracane · August 2015

Yes, just do it please

and also scale all trials up to VR16

There is no reason, why these popular PvE areas should stay VR14.

Eventually they will do it, but in the last ESO Live they said they did not have time to scale Trials/Arena up to v16 yet. They were focusing on the Undaunted dungeons.

If they didn't have time to scale the content up to v16, why raise the cap? Interesting question.

They raise the cap because they want to remove them. xD Makes sense right? >.>

The reason they raised the cap is due to the fact that they want to keep people busy with new gear etc

My theory is to make VR14 gear obsolete. We came up with some gear combinations that were more powerful than intended, so if they didn't make new gear VR16 we would have no reason to go after it.

Well, all the sets will be aviable in v16. Just harder to get now. And ye, now we have to get loads of gold again to buy mats and tempers etc, its all just to keep us busy.

It's because they want you to think you need to buy the DLC in order to get mats and gear for vr15/16. Which isn't the case. Leaderboards, rewards for the worthy and hirelings will still drop mats and gear needed until the influx of gear from the people who bought IC.

Dracane · August 2015

But seriously, why would anyone run trials now ? For outdated vr12 gear ?
The only reason to run dsa now is for v14 healer gear, because there is nothing better for healers than that and probably master weapons.

But trials are no reward anymore in my opinion.
Tell me if I missed something, but we're not going to be able to get trial gear for v16. It's even a bit outdated right now, because it's 2 levels too low. Then it's even 4 levels, which means no v16 enchants for vr12 trial gear which makes them much less interesting than now.

Let's not even discuss how USELESS the trials sets are anyways... =+=

A shame you can not access VR16 Master Weapons in my opinion, one less thing to do in-game.

B-B-But you can grind IC weapons because they're better!

Real talk: Not having DSA or Trials scale to VR 16 is a pretty dumb design decision, IMO. What was so hard about simply scaling it up like the rest of the Veteran Group Content in-game?

Faulgor · August 2015

They will add a new arena with Orsinium, so there's that.

Ding Ding Ding. V16 was a blatant gear grab. And a materials grab. That's it. The only reason. They could have just added new content and new exciting sets, but no.

They have to make your existing sets trash so you are forced to get the new sets, whether the new sets are exciting or not.

It's not a good look.

Out with the old (content that's been out for over a year now) and in with the new as they say. I for one am glad they are doing it this way.

I did not say that Trial/Arena gear vill be v16. I meant the existing sets from PvP will be aviable in v16. Still, there might be a small chance to get arena gear IF the weekly scales up to your v16 level. Not sure tho. Would mean you could only get 16 from weekly arena reward. (but as I said, I have no confirmation)

Ah. I thought you mean, there is still a way to get vr16 trial gear, just very hard

Would be so nice

Sadly no, but the trial gear is 100% useless now anyway due to its 23039029x nerfs xD

And the fact, that they can't hold max level enchants.
I don't understand, why ZoS would ignore trials entirely. They MUST raise them to vr16.

My guild is definately not going to run trials anymore. What's the point in doing so ? Nobody wants oudated gear, that is 4 levels too low and is only capable of holding glyphs of minor quality.

-Lower set stats
-Lower armor stats
-Lower enchants

The only reason to run trials in the next patch is for the leaderboards. Apart from that there is no incentive...

Well ZOS said on ESO Live, they had no time to scale them up yet, will do later

I usually can live with 'Soon' but not in this case. At least they shall give us another way to aquire Trial gear for vr16
Please do it 'Soon stage I' which means in the next 2 weeks

and not 'Soon stage II' Which means in 1 year.

Make it possible to upgrade item levels with crafting. Gear problem solved, crafting made more viable. Solved.

This means they'll release it in 6-8 weeks as stop-gap content between DLCs, and also redo sets so people will grind anew after they've invested in IC gear. It's all part of the new gear-grind end-game.

My group ran VDSA on PTS when it was the weekly and we all got VR14 Gold loot for the weekly reward. :'(
