Well that's just stupid. I've been enjoying seeing people of all levels all over the place. I like being able to run around any zone as a level 50 CP561 and not feel like I'm ruining the experience of any lowbies around me, and I like that lowbies are now able to go to zones where they would have been slaughtered before and actually be able to complete the quests and stuff.

I can honestly say i didn't even look at anyone's level once last night. There's no reason for that in the open world and normal dungeons.

My initial thought was 'wow, nicely done'. Groups all over the place. So that was a great feeling. But shortly after I started noticing a lot of hostility from a number of people. They dislike how 'we', the new players, end up having 18K health, they dislike how we can now partake in 'their' content. How we are stealing 'their' mobs. Then again, we do serve purpose as meatshields, so there's that. So far I only ever had 2-3 people on ignore, yesterday I ended up tossing tenfold of that on ignore. I actually switched servers.

So my experience, my story in One Tamriel, is kind of bittersweet.

I'm loving the MMO aspect of it, but I kind of hate how a precious few hijack the entire concept to turn it into a 'them vs us'.

I can go to formerly low level dolmens and actually fight instead of just healing people so I don't one shot kill steal everything from them. I'm all for the change in this respect at least.

They are horrible people, regardless of game.

I, Minno a DC only pvper, welcome you to our DC zones! Just take off your shoe's before you enter; I like my floors clean.

I was met with a tremendous boat load of updates after a nearly year-long hiatus...

I love seeing so many people in the cities. It reminded me of early access

I grouped up with @RinaldoGandolphi and @Minno, collected all my saved treasure maps, and went in alphabetical order to each zone. We linked goodies in group chat and traded different pieces. There is so much loot now its fantastic. Though I can see inventory is going to be an issue again. No complaints though I would rather have too much loot then not enough.

Once I finished my treasure maps I opened a few undaunted chests and got a few decent shoulders: Selene, Ilambris, Grothdar?, and then we got a friend to heal Selene's Web. Selene is back to being a tough boss with hard mode activated. Got to dodge that bear lol!

I then grouped with another friend and we did the Mages, Fighters and Undaunted dailies. I like these a lot. Fighter's guild was in Rivenspire and I did some dolmens with @Rohamad_Ali

I did Wayrest and Arx pledges. Arx I rarely ever do and it seemed really long but not much different in difficulty. Wayrest 2 they increased the trash mob health so it actually took longer then 10 minutes to complete.

I still have several characters with 40+ undaunted keys to spend so I'm good on pledges for a long while

Overall I am very happy with the update. The dueling is fun, having a reason to go to old zones that are now viable for loot and exp is great, and I even enjoy the banter in zone chat between the different factions.

You're too good to group with me or something?

You left Rivenspire too early! Let's group tonight so we can be at effective PvP strength!

@Publius_Scipio You were busy keeping the rabble in line in Wayrest.
