Dear @ZOS_JessicaFolsom, just a quick question: How long is the megaserver maintenance downtime will last to install the DLC on the server side? Are we looking at 4, 6, 9 hours, or longer down time?

✭✭✭✭Probably at least 6-8 hours would be my guess. If they are taking the servers offline when people are expecting a long outage, they are probably going to do a bunch of other needed maintenance at the same time.0 -

✭✭most likely 4-5 hours like the last DLC drop. maybe 6 since it changes more than TG didPLEASE REPLY TO ME WITH @dsalter otherwise i'm likely to miss the reply if its not my own thread

✭✭✭✭✭I expect it to take quite a while. It is not just a DLC, after all, it is also the removal of veteran ranks. I imagine a lot can go wrong while patching when we have a big change to one of the core mechanics like that.Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.
Meet my characters:Command: Do the thing.
Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.3 -

The Dark Brotherhood launch maintenance window on May 31st is scheduled for six hours (starting at 6AM Eastern), but sometimes it takes less, sometimes more. We'll let everyone know as soon as the maintenance is over, either way.

Cool, hopefully for PS4 will be similar come June 14th two weeks from the day after tomorrow~ I'm dying to get the wolf mount, and see my main's stats after the buffs, I expect Weapon Damage to become over 4000 unbuffed.

Ffastyl✭✭✭✭✭In the past, 8 hours has been enough. But like Jessica said, sometime more. I think the longest patch was 12 hours. And the shortest patch was 20 minutes (excluding hotfixes which do not require downtime at all)."A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it."

Let me let you down easily, it won't for 4k unbuffed... Buffed can reach upward of 5.3k thou.PERTH, AUSTRALIA | PC | NA | @Aussie-Elders

That's absurd. The game needs a new meta other than damage stacking and shield abuse (so that you can push even more dps while wearing a napkin under your multiple shields). Longterm, it never works, isn't healthy, brings with it a million balancing issues, and ruins any mechanics the developers implement for PVE. (As well as pigeonholes PVP builds.)
As a tank, even, I'm over 2k unbuffed spell power, which is just dumb. That used to be the endgame goal FOR DPS barely a year ago.Edited by Peekachu99 on May 30, 2016 9:34AM1 -

Yeah. The power creep is real. There was a significant increase in power between v14 and v16: far more than the difference between v12 and v14.1 -

Cool, thanks. I was wondering when it will come out for PS4.. and yes, increase physical harm for jewelries enchant, but those darn glyphs are expensive from the trader guild. I wonder where you can find a drop of those. ..and are you serious, 4000 unbuffed? I wonder how powerful the enemies will be, then?!0 -
