So, I see a lot of posts about costume dying, but nothing mentioned about the fact they're going to be raising CP cap and that they are implementing racial passive changes with the next update. Both of these are MAJOR considering all the discussion threads about them... and they are mentioned in ESO Live today but nobody has brought them up yet. So... I'll be the first.

✭✭✭✭✭whats the new cp max?
They said it will be announced next week... along with all the notes regarding everything else that's coming, including pricing, when it will be released, etc. It will be hitting PTS also next week so I'm guessing a lot of the information will be in the patch notes. Just an FYI... the new 'dungeon packs' are exactly that... two dungeons you access from Shadowfen, they do not include ANY new areas.CP: 2078 ** ESO+ 2025 Content Pass ** ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****

✭That's good, finally some change
I suppose they haven't say anything about a possible stuff level increase ? I really hope v16 will still be the max level, the craft cost is already far too hight for my 9 characters ^^'1 -

Well, for months people have been demanding changes to both CP cap AND racial passives... now they're on the horizon and people are like, "OMG, they're actually coming... now what?!?" LoL! That kind of was my point to this thread... that for months people have been talking about it and when it's announced... silence.

✭I'm expecting 552 or 600. It's pure speculation, but those seem like appropriate increases considering the number of players I know and where their totals are at.6 -

Well just wait until the announcements are posted, then I'm sure they'll have the incentive to post about it. After all, they did say that the HAD TO have the racial change option added BEFORE they made the racial passive changes... which I think means they expect a LOT of people to be unhappy.

✭✭✭✭✭I think a lot of races need serious help, but I hope they don't mess up certain races like Khajiit and Bosmer as I know I specifically selected Bosmer for my stealth assassin because of the stealth passives. If they remove the stealth passives, then that decision would be pointless.CP: 2078 ** ESO+ 2025 Content Pass ** ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****

✭✭✭✭✭It would be awesome if they added MORE passives instead of taking away what is already there... they seem to be all about passives these days... passives with TG, passives with DB... how about more passives for races?!?

My guess is a standardizing of the racial passives rather than anything being added or subtracted, but if they do that there's a very good chance that races like Altmer and Dunmer will lose their bonus damage.2 -

Well, personally, I'm OK with removing damage bonuses... it's the stealth reduction, max attribute, attribute regen, that is most important to me in my builds. Although, it will be interesting to see if they change Imperial at all considering it was a PAID race.CP: 2078 ** ESO+ 2025 Content Pass ** ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****

I'd rather see them reduced rather than straight up lost, but I agree, regen and bonus stats are pretty important.1 -

Holy crap, this is the last hope. Please, for the love of Sithis, they better give Argonians and Nords something fair. It has been 2 years of going around and around about this. I will kneel down before Wrobel and lick his feet clean if he finally balanced the racial passives fairly.
But my luck with MMOs tells me that Argonians will still suck and I'll have to choke down that dirty race change. I'm actually kind of nervous about this now. This could be the greatest thing this game has seen since crafting bags or it could be a heart-breaking tale of how this gamer felt no choice but to abandon his egg-brethren.
The suspense is killing me.

lol, you already can.
But if you're talking about equally, then that would completely hose the lore.0 -

Playing since release and still can't get used to this fugly mug. The only saving grace is racial bonuses. But if they remove or nerf them...I dunno, I'll want one free race change token.

I also heard them mention rebalancing racial passives but DID NOT hear anything about raising the CP cap.
