EU template issues

Edited to add other users' input (thanks for your contributions). Original post below, behind the spoiler.
- 300 CP doesn't allow for the testing of builds similar to those we have on the live server. There should be templates at full CP cap.
- Lack of wayshrines makes getting around unduly difficult, e.g. when you have to travel a long way to get a certain mundus stone, etc. PTS templates should have every wayshrine unlocked.
- Not all crafting materials are being provided, namely enchanting runes. The pre-made glyphs are purple. There is no way to test legendary glyphs without farming for Kutas, which shouldn't be a necessity on PTS. Templates should include all crafting materials.
- Not all max level sets are included. The PTS should allow for the testing of all end-game sets without the need to farm them. Considering players are provided with the means to craft any crafted set, templates should have access to all end-game dropped sets, even if this means not having pre-made crafted sets.
- Not all skill lines are maxed out. For testing purposes, all of them - with the possible exception of Dark Brotherhood - should be maxed out on templates. All skills and their morphs should also be maxed out.

- Why only 300 CP? The cap is at 501 right now and many players are at cap, why can't we make CP capped templates? Please add that option to templates.
- Most zones aren't unlocked/don't have wayshrines. In my case I made a DC template and I can't get to Alik'r to get the Thief mundus because the zone is only accessible after doing a quest. I also can't go to any other alliance zone, even though the template is level 50 - aren't the Silver and Gold zones supposed to be unlocked then regardless of main quest completion? Please unlock all wayshrines in all zones for templates.
- Armour glyphs are white, whereas weapon and jewellery glyphs are purple. Also, there are NO runes in the crafting bags whatsoever. I can't really test a build to the limit if I can't make gold gear with gold glyphs. Please include runes in the crafting bags. Ok so apparently the free armour glyphs magically turned purple, so forget aobut the first part. Would still like to be able to make gold glyphs though.

✭Yeah I agree. I uninstalled pts last patch as soon as I discovered the lack of cp for templates, I thought they might have raised it this patch. A good starting point for testing changes is being able to create a something you're used to so you can evaluate how it's changed. If you're testing with 200cp less than you're used to how do you know if what you're experiencing is down to new changes of just lack of cp?PC | EU2 -

✭✭✭✭I dont understant why they dont add eu characters at first patch...
It would make sense to alternate it so EU goes first sometimes, there are always horrible bugs the first week or two, it makes no sense to have it unplayable for most of NA's turn every time.
EDIT: The reason it has to alternate rather than characters from both servers at the same time is: a) some people have characters on the same account on both servers; b) a character name can be used at the same time on both servers; c) a guild name can be used on both servers - these issues mean that they cannot copy over characters from both servers and have them co-exist on the PTS without issues.Edited by Epona222 on April 26, 2016 10:04AMGM - Ghost Sea Trading Co - NA PC

✭✭✭✭✭You don't need a quest to go to Alik'r, just take a ship from Wayrest.
Thanks, I'll try that. I thought the ship was only available after completing the Stormhaven story line. It still strikes me as odd that we don't get all wayshrines on the PTS, since the goal is to test characters and that requires being able to go anywhere.0 -

If you currently play on PC EU server, your characters will be copied over 2 weeks from now and NA players will be using templates - that is the time to test your current builds.
Do not worry about testing vampire changes now to report back to Zenimax, there are plenty of maxed out vampire players with characters on the PTS right now who are testing that and reporting any problems. You are not the only person available to test stuff, other players are helping to do that right now

That's too short; with the bugs and issues players have to jump through to progress, you'd never reach the "end" of the testing content if your character was wiped every week.

It's odd about the wayshrines; the template characters during the Thieves Guild PTS had access to one wayshrine in each zone.UESP: The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages - A collaborative source for all knowledge on the Elder Scrolls series since 1995
