What do you EXPECT from "Dark Brotherhood"

I hope to see a few quests as diabolical as that party in Skingrad during ESIV:Oblivion.

For a moment I was out of any idea what you meant - but then it came back - it was a nice job and I solved it Babette style and Astrid would have called it "overachieving", if she would have lived already at that time.

How do you overachieve on that one? Been a long time since I played it. By Babette style I assume you mean with deceit. The contract was to kill every last guest and for a bonus get some of them to kill each other without ever getting caught in the act. I always killed the old Breton lady by luring her in to the cellar followed by the Dunmer, after that it didn't take much to get fights going.

Remember the old man killed by his falling trophy... Good times. Skyrim contracts were a little bland in comparison.

Of course I do, that was the contract in Bruma - one of the first few.

Well, if you remember Skyrim when you first meet Astrid in that shack near Morthal. She has a riddle for you with 3 victims, where she says you have to find out, who is to be killed and do it then. I listened to all of them, all seemed to be bad people, so I killed all of them and Astrid called this "overachieving" before she invited me to the guild. That is what I was referring to.

Edit: and to Babette style - Babette has rather cynical ways to deal with targets - so what I did was reverse pickpocketing poisoned apples and tried to be seen by the others, when my targets ate their apples and dropped dead and then I watched the drama unfolding between the others as an "innocent" bystander. I think Babette would have liked this.

I remember. I was caught up on the Skyrim initiation only requiring one death so I could over-achieve by providing three and the party in Skingrad requiring all of the guests to die regardless weather I went for the bonus by turning the guests on each other.

And Applewatch...

Edit: got it. Never had the patience to mess with poisoned apples, whenever I did I spent ages waiting for their AI to tell them to eat hoping I had grabbed everything else available that they might eat instead.

I expect:

-some areas of imperial city to be broken
-new bugs introduced
-stam users might get buffed to OP again
-Magika users and vicious death users may suffer nerfs based on the amount of whiners crying for a nerf. If hardened Ward gets a cast time sourcer will not be popular in pvp
-some incremental fix that is supposed to reduce lag to be applied that doesn't actually do anything to help.
-new content and more viable sets that is going to be better then Theives guild.
-64-bit client to still be bug ridden

So there we have it. Some negativity sorry but Its based on fact and experience. I am excited about vet rank removal and look forward to the new content. But I expect them to screw up balance and introduce more bugs rather then actually fixing the big issues such as lag.

Yeah, but this delay was good at the party, because I had an alibi seen by the others when my targets finally ate the apples. then I just had to watch the drama unfolding and kill the last one standing - quite clean kills I would say.

I want to see a system implemented with dark brotherhood where you can murder real players in the name of Sithis.

You get a kill quest from an npc and the system picks up a random player within your faction. Also it should be open pvp and you can see the last position from the player the last 5 minutes ago, if you look on your map (like the quest circles). You have to find this player within the area and the system refreshs his last position every 5 minutes.

If you attempt to kill your target and be successful, you'll get certain rewards like gear, achievements etc.

If you fail, your target gets a reward.

Also they should implement an option where players can avoid this system so they won't get picked as a target, if they don't want to do open pvp in dark brotherhood.

Sorry for my bad english but I hope I've described it well.

It won't happen and we'll gonna kill random NPCs but it would be an awesome idea I guess.

What I want is a new vet group dungeon(better yet, two) and bug fixes, specifically Overload because it only seems to be getting worse with every patch.
Also, softcaps please. Or at least SOMETHING that will make the content challenging again. Buff old dungeons or something like they were in 1.5, that was fun.

What I expect is more bugs, no long needed fixes(next patch Overload will probably get not just get stuck in invisible heavy but be impossible to stop from doing that too until you run out of all your 1k ulti>.>), yet another "exciting"(don't get me wrong, some of the quests in this game are really awesome and it's obvious there's been a lot of work put into them. However, after a while questing does get old, plus it has very little replayability value) solo questline and some more bugs.
Haven't bought TG, not planning to buy DB either unless there's actually something worth doing in there.

Oh and I forgot more Crown Store sh**.

Softcaps would make vmsa nearly impossible. If they softcap our dps, they would have to nerf some content.

nine9six · April 2016

A decrease in performance.

Step right up and buy your crown packs here, folks!

Thank you.... Want to hear from you...

Mason22 · April 2016

I'm expecting lots of new complaint threads. Whether or not they have merit has yet to be seen.

I expect disappointment as well. Heres a tip zos. All your dlc should include 2 new 4 man dungeons and at least 1 12 man trial. Not even a year in on console launch and we have 3 dlcs but only 1 new 12 man and 2 new 4 mans in that time. I thought this was an mmo. Time to hire a new project lead.

LOL that time passed long ago

No it wouldn't - NPC are there all the time, whereas a player might logoff and you have no idea when he will login again, it could be hours or weeks or never happen again. Players are just too unreliable as targets for such quests.

Silver_Strider · April 2016

Hopes:
Either Vet modes of existing dungeons or new dungeons all together (2 minimal preferred)
New Trial
Buffs to Stamina builds
New skill line that offers more than just passives
Ability to deposit AP in bank
More bag/bank space
Buffs to Heavy Armor
Purchasable Hakeijo runes in IC, among other things.

Expect:
Another Skill line of really lack luster passives.
Some mild bug fixes
Longer Load times (Load Screen boss has already killed me 5 times today; needs nerf badly)
Unresponsive abilities (we ruined all charge abilities, now we go for teleport abilities

)
New crap I don't really care about (Alliance/Race change, Player Housing)
Removal of VRs and the *** load of bugs it will cause (I can see it now, people not being able to equip ANY of their gear, regardless of CP, because of some glitch that makes it so the game views you only level 50 and people start scrambling to Coldharbour to gather low level mats to make their gear til the the s*** storm passes.)

ninjaguyman · April 2016

only hoping for some buffs for heavy armor... But all ive heard so far is a change to the guard skill, which is good. But I can't really use that with a magicka spec so... hoping for some actual changes to the passives.

MidnightBlue · April 2016

Crafting bags. Tired of my inventory full most of the times and having no room to store anything. Better pve grouping options or some sort of balance for people to be able to beat stuff or maybe it's the people themselves that need fixing and get better. Not asking for a nerf, but I don't understand why most of the people in this game have problems beating White Gold and Prison still. Those dungeons aren't that hard, but for some reason when I go in group finder or randoms, over 90% of the players can't complete most veteran dungeons. It's frustrating having to find people to do stuff with people only to find out can't complete it with most people. Not saying I'm the best player either, but it will be nice to be able to beat dungeons with randoms. I make sure my build, gear, skills, and rotation are in check first. Why can't other people do the same? I'm not talking about new players, I'm talking about those that's been on the game for awhile and want to do dungeons, but put no time to improve for themselves.

Hawt dang!! I want that too!

olsborg · April 2016

Also I want most if not all of the old sets (like warlock, shadow walker, morag tong) to be scaled to v16 so we can have more diversity for builds.

I think that poison making will be a thing added with DB.

And there will of course be the obligatory sky is failing it's the end of ESO threads as per.

I agree on the 4 mans. But a new trial every 3 months would be way too much. Thieves guild has been out a month and only one guild has cleared vet(not even hardmode). Not to mention rushed content = bad content.

Yea but 9 months in and only 1 new 12 man. Very mmoish lol

Alcast · April 2016

There will be no new trials this year.

All I excpect is:
buff to stamina classes (rebalancing bugged stuff and old outdated stuff)
2-3 new vet dungeons.
new gear.

TheHsN · April 2016

Tnx for your all IDEAS...

An insightful and honest response. The OP did ask what you EXPECT, not what you WANT.

By expecting the worst, you can only be pleasantly surprised. I think I heard some Bosmer in-game say that.

Personally, all I really care about is the ability to re-trait and level upgrade any gear item using crafting.

I would be very happy if any of these point got fixed/added but Im definitely not counting on it.
Looking at the direction of the game I would actually be very surprised if we see anything to improve the pvp experience.

joker0137 · April 2016

"What do I EXPECT from Dark Brotherhood?"

Oh the usual, bugs, glitches and fails that don't get fixed.

Cinbri · April 2016

64-bit client that actually works..

hamburgerler76 · April 2016

maybe 1 new dungeon if we are lucky, some new world bosses, a new daily or 2, 10 new crown store items, stam builds op or destroyed.
