    How to test a major update ZOS-way:

    Step 1. Don't waste time for internal tests. Just push the patch to live servers in prime time.
    Step 2. Wait 4-5 hours for players to test the patch.
    Step 3. Find out the most obvious bugs.
    Step 4. Shut down the server for maintenance to fix these bugs.
    Step 5. ???
    Step 6. Profit!

    Someone in there noticed that something is wrong and decided to shutdown for a hotfix, so this person knows what's going on and he/she didn't tell you?

    It's an item-related issue introduced with this patch that we need to address.

    hey @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

    would you mind providing more information. i mean there must be a good reason to bring the servers down for this issue right after the patch and it shouldn't be possible to exploit it when the servers are down, right? (and afterwards fixed right? is it embarrassing? did you reintroduce some old bugs? just guessing here)

    so absolutely no reason to not tell anything?

    That defending Maelstrom bow I got last week from the leaderboards is starting to look pretty sweet. Haha.

    Seriously though, glad they fix this stuff ASAP. I just hope its not a roll back because I spent a good 2 hours sorting through gear now that I actually have room in my bank.

    ummmm obviously the next question would be... What item-related issue? Poison of Apocalypse? infinite Golds from the OP prosperous trait? Instant ults from Decisive trait? it had to be something pretty extreme for you to bring down the server this quickly...

    Maybe Prosperous is accidentally giving Crowns instead of gold.... :trollface:

    That is the only thing IMO that can result in such a swift action!

    What's the issue? The servers are down, and I'm assuming not being brought up until the issue is fixed. What's the harm in informing the super patient customers?

    Bad idea if it's something exploitable, since things in this game usually take 4-5 tries to patch before it's fixed.

    Ya but atleast those ppl who unlucky like you can wear they preferred monster set just for the set bonus. We will see everyone wearing the same thing for each class in few days later. :D

    A rollback would make me seriously unhappy considering all the inventory shuffling, decon and crafting I did.

    OTOH, maybe a second chance to turn in my Undaunted keys will provide something better than a batch of prosperous gear. :smiley:

    Woa. Is this statue of her in DB ? She looks very old and rather unattractive here :D

    Yet, she looks more like the goddess and mother of body love, like a Venus. In Skyrim she looked.... well cheaper.

    Chapel of Dibella in Anvil. And I think she's gorgeous.

    Is there a statue of Akatosh as well ? *-* please say yes. It will become my new facebook pic

    And here I was thinking this was the most bug-free DLC launch yet!
    They must have realised and took the server down to install the bugs :smiley:

    Hahahaha, yeah, creating extra work FTW! xD

    I agree though, it's the smoothest patch yet, even though I'm running the 64-bit version.

    They only take down servers like this when it is something critical. Sound fixing, tooltip bugs etc will be fixed in a later planned patch (hopefully).

    It would be great with an ETA, but if they are not completely sure what/how the problem is fixed, it will sure take a while.

    It was to be expected though, as problems that only appears live (some don't appear on PTS), will appear now.


    Keep up the good work, and fingers crossed the PvP performance will soon be fixed too! ^^

    I agree, if it's a major exploit they may well only be able to plug the most obvious holes at this point, and not want to advertise what it is so that players currently unaware try to find ways around this fix.
