ESO should become ESGO - ZoS you're making blacksmithing and clothing obsolete

raidentenshu_ESO · October 2016

The only way to get these special sets is through grinding. No longer shall ESO be called ESO but ESGO - Elder Scrolls Grinding Online. You give us new gear sets that can only be obtained through grinding, and not through crafting. I can't even craft my new toon new gear without it interfering with the new set that I received from drops.

I certainly can't craft the set because it can only be obtained by grinding.

My teeth hurts from grinding

I was hoping for more craftable armor/weapon sets. There are still some crafted sets that are better than dropped, but crafting could use some more love. I guess the focus in the future might be on making things for houses. Which isn't my thing, but it would open up a whole new avenue of revenue for people. Unless of course they offer house items solely through the Crown store........

And this doesn't even address the difficulty of a character now in gathering the different levels of resources. I have had to create another character just to gather lower level resources so I can craft someone a set of armor. This will not be good for the economy I believe as it will make top-tier and starting resources overly common and those of us who like crafting gear for players in their mid levels get screwed.

I do have to say, I like being able to gather ANY level resource in easy to gather locations... But so has everyone else apparently... And there are more of us now gathering in the same locations now that we are all on the same plane... Naaaa, this isn't an issue at all!!!!

I guess they don't want everyone to get a perfect set with so little effort.

I was under the impression a zone was supposed to offer resources equal to your characters combat level or crafting level. So far the majority of nodes I find are severely below my combat level then nodes that are range appropriate .

Generally, as MMOs age, they get more grindy.

That being said, I was also hoping for more craftable sets, though some of the chest reward sets are not bad (if you grind chests enough).

Kagrenac's is still real good.

Ben running around on delves and chests and quests across tamriel for several days now.

Great to see all those useful nodes along the way from poibt a to point b. Hardly ever on horseback cuz every 5 secs see a couple new nodes. Mats flowing in like mad. Crafters decon 24/7 (trash sets at level) and refine lots.

Lower guys finding plenty too for when they want crafted gear. But frankly, i have one char storing the lower level gesrs cropping up and that set rate is gonna give the lowers less dependence on crafting.

Mats shortage panic... nah not gonna happen with any regularity. Not ssying everything works exactly samecas before, just not problematic, just different.

Now i agree that to my way of thinking, equip crafting just shifted to second role fillers instead of integral to build. I DO NOT like that.

IMO ASAP some/all of the following need to be done.
Remove lower limit on mat level crafting.
Add jewel crafting
Add ability to up-level a crafted piece keeping quality.
Allow substitue of one numbered ability for another, on crafted only, for 2-4 pc bonus.

Longer list in thread under crafting but need to restore function for crafting.

Let us craft jewelry, problem solved

Seducer is still my main 5 piece in pvp #sorcwoes

Heard it here first folks. crafting is fine because Twice Born Star, one of the few sets that can scale with the power creep. Why would anyone want to wear hunding's after this? Drop gear is outclassing crafting gear.

no.

you can buy them, or not use them, or just play the game and eventually accumulate them. You are not being forced to grind for them.
