Should end game vTrial loot be more rewarding?

Frozenmosquito
Vet trials. As a guild with high enthusiasm for end game content and where we are trying to progress to vet trials fairly soon, something I find myself thinking about is why is vTrial loot difference so non-existent, with the only exception the gold jewellery. The difference in group effectiveness and coordination required for completing vet trials as compared to normal trials is staggering, and I feel that the rewards should much better correspond to that. Gold jewellery is of course nice to acquire but is not in any way significantly better when compared to its purple versions. Most guilds/groups will try and progress in vet trials, as will we in time, but sadly the loot to be expected from that progression is anything but exciting. Titles and skins are well done but are pretty much useless lets be real :wink:

What I would personally like to see would be something like vet trial specific monster sets or vMA/vDSA style unique weapons - thats just me. Note however that I would not like to see any differences in gear quality since gear is extremely easy to upgrade in ESO, even when it is BOP, and even if it is to be upgraded to legendary.

    Can you not elaborate? Also, what does trading have to do with this? :smiley: if anything it just proves my point even more where vet trials rewards having no individuality whatsoever.

    You are right. The difficulty does not match the reward. If it did award appropriate loot the difference between vet trial people and everyone else would be too great. I think the award should be something vanity related or quality of life related.

    Give weekly costumes, hats, personalities, etc.

    Imagine if the Mage's Costume was the award for achieving a leaderboard score for the weekly when it is Veteran Aetherian Archive, and then when it comes back to vAA weeks later, a Storm Atro polymorph is the weekly award. So on and so forth for each trial when they are the weekly. That way, you can show off how awesome your guild is by walking around looking like a Storm Atronach, and give the impression to those working towards engame that trials are worth the time to complete. :)

    The gear itself should not be changed, as that would lead to an even bigge split between those completing Vet Trials and those who are working on them, making sure only very few guilds will ever be on the leaderboard..

    Short answer yes. With trading you should have everything you need inside of 2-3 runs. Undaunted Plunder plugged that leak that was caused by removing BoE stuff but trials are still ultimately not very rewarding. You'd get more out of sitting on a world boss for 3 hours.

    Sounds like some really bad RNG. I am constantly giving that stuff away, but really that misses the point. The point being that trading will allow people to obtain all the gear they need much faster.
