    16 hrs in less than a week. Awesome.

    Mandatory maintenence + one Tamriel = beginning of zos down sizing operation (which is what this is all about) no data centre in the developed world goes offline for maintenence without any form on continuity as much as zos....esp without any form of improvement.

    Without any form of improvement... ??? Haven't you noticed the improvement in Cyro ?
    Still not perfect, but very noticeable.

    As to the maintenance, I assume that One Tamriel "merging" the three alliances in PvE zones implies some stuff being wired differently. I'm not techie in those things though :-)

    No. Every time I cap a keep it boots me to home screen before the ap tick. I can still crit rush people and land in a loading screen. No Cyro is still crap.

    Or instead of basing an assumption on your glass being half-empty, you could regard it as half-full and assume that the initial maintenance is either the routine stuff they do most weeks to ensure that the servers are in good shape for the major update on Wednesday (something many developers do before adding a major update), or top up the glass a bit more and assume that they're anticipating additional players after One Tamriel launches and are therefore using Monday's maintenance to switch in additional hardware - up-sizing as opposed to down-sizing.

    The short answer is that we don't know :wink: !

    We don't know, but they are preparing for One Tamriel which is a big change, so I think it is understandable if the maintenance is extended.
    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.

    Dude, Cyrodiil is 100% cheeks in regards to performance. It still feels horrible, and the lag and inconsistency of skills reliabily working still exists to this very day. As @DRXHarbinger mentioned, gap-closers are STILL broken. Bruh, it's October of 2016. Meanwhile you can still gap-close into a loading screen, and or across the map? WTF? It's ridiculous. And if you're curious about that, I have videos on top of videos of me gap-closing into some bs. In fact, last week or the week before that I uploaded a thread and video of me gap-closing from Faregyl to Aleswell. I still don't even understand how I managed to do that. ESO is going down the drain, and at an alarming rate. Or as @Rohamad_Ali loves to put it, "ESO is vomiting its guts out regularly." :D

    That doesn't include them breaking the servers again during it causing the game to be down most of the day again.

    My guess? The 8 hour extended maintenance did come off as expected, resulting in the emergency maintenance later in the week, which they are now attempting to fix this Monday.

    looks like they are doing more datacentre upgrades, although there is 2 account server maint listed which is rather odd.
