You'll get Guild Rank 2 after you complete Partners in Crime, which then unlocks Cleaning House.
Does this affect any of the other quests' requirements? Or are they still each tied to successive Guild ranks? Does this mean that there is no quest unlocked at Guild Rank 2 any more?ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Quests- Cleaning House:
- This quest is now available immediately after completing "Partners in Crime."
Either Rank 1 has become really short, or the amount of Rep you get for a story quest has been significantly bumped this time around.
I still think it would make more sense to not get the skill line at all until completing Partners in Crime. It's supposed to be for Thieves Guild members, not any old adventurer who wanders into Abah's Landing.UESP: The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages - A collaborative source for all knowledge on the Elder Scrolls series since 1995

Weapon- Bow
- Hawk Eye: This passive ability has been redesigned, and no longer increases the damage of your Bow abilities against off-balance enemies. It now increases the damage of your Bow abilities by 2/5% for 4 seconds after each successful Light or Heavy Attack, stacking up to 3 times.
Thank you!

Hey, Focused Charge is working a lot better on the PTS now. I am not getting any skill lockouts when bar swapping that I have noticed. The main remaining issue is the pathing problem. Is it at all possible to get any kind of update on that?Edited by timidobserver on February 23, 2016 12:21AMV16 Uriel Stormblessed EP Magicka Templar(main)

Well this is like giving the middle finger to tanks and healers so please change this not everything revolves around the dps you know.
The intent behind this achievement is to encourage a broader range of players venturing into the Dark Behind the World to earn credit. We realize that tanks and healers will find this achievement a bit more challenging with the recent change, but we want this achievement to require a fair bit of coordination, communication, and teamwork. It will be tougher, yes, but not impossible. We can definitely take a look at the achievement and how it is completed.
The issue is that unless a healer is needed in there they won't go inside you can't simply risk that,
beyond that it would mean having to slot several dps skills making us take away a few support abilities from our bars just to get that achievement.
they don't want different groups doing this. How could homogenizing the achievement to be available only to only those who get the final blow create what they are suggesting? Do you think tanks should bring an execute and stop the flow of combat just to get the last hit? How about healers do this, have to stop healing momentarily placing the entire group at risk, just to get the final blow?
ZOS, get your head out of your ass. Why do you keep pushing this dps race with every class? Taking away tanking healing, giving boosts to burst damage and then making op gear sets? You're turning the game into the worst kind of mundane skill spam fest with no skill involvement.

✭✭I want to chime in again about the achievement being locked behind killing blows. That is a very bad call. What you are telling players by doing this is that damage is all that matters, that the final hit is all that matters. You tanked 100% of the bosses damage? To bad, that one guy got the last hit in. Healed 100% of the damage the group took? To bad, you should have stopped healing and switched to spamming executes. There is enough in the game dissuading people from playing support roles, and if you are willing to take the step to do this, what next?11 -

Agreed. It's really screwing over the non-DPS play style. Tanks & healers both take risk in combat, as well as DPS. They receive experience, so why take away the achievement?
As a health based DK tank, I feel more & more marginalised as this game goes on. Everything seems to revolve around stamina or magica damage.

@ZOS_Finn ,
What do you mean ? That in order to get as a Tank / Healer this achievement... You have to coordinate as a team that the DPS guys stop with damage dealing at very low health of a Void Caller, so that Tanks / Healers can land the killing blow .
Is that what you mean ???

Or someone has a dot going on the boss, be it a weapon proc or skill, or an aoe and they don't move it soon enough. Or, well, just about anything. I can already imagine groups trying to help each other out but then unintentionally mess it up.3 -

In other words, yes, you are deliberately flipping the middle finger at tanks and healers. Again.
Setting other recent anti-support changes aside, having a DPS-only achievement would be reasonable if it were balanced by support-oriented achievements that were equally challenging for a player that was not a main healer or tank to get.9 -

Is this achievement a player achievement or a character achievement? If it is a player achievement and it is only necessary to do it once on any one of the characters on the account, then this is not an unreasonable achievement. If this is something that has to be done per character, then I can see a definite level of frustration.
Ideally, though, it should give the achievement to anyone who has enough in the pot to get XP from the kill.0 -
