[FEATURE REQUEST] Storm Atronach Transform

Alucardo · December 2016

- Turn this into a skin instead of being a lame memento
- Make it available to drop from Tempest Island after completing a no death vet HM run

Thanks.

AnviOfVai · December 2016

Agreed!

Woeler · December 2016

Yep

OrphanHelgen · December 2016

I got that one, its awesome. Im spamming "q" all day long, have it one quickslotterino:)

AzraelKrieg · December 2016

Yeah, it should be a skin and not a memento. The aura is fine as a memento though.

Iove · December 2016

It costs as much as mind shriven skin, why isn't it a skin or polymorph already is the real question.

Make a sorc, slot crit surge, spam away!

If you spin in a circle fast enough you might even make the little wind effect! Im only guessing about this. But if the Flash can do it, i dont see why we cant.

I think that something must be done with both the transform and the aura.

Changing the transform into a skin is an excellent idea.

Yesterday, after getting the aura and tried it for a couple of times, I thought it would be awesome when:
- transform gives you major expedition buff for 10 sec;
- aura gives you minor expedition buff for 10 sec.
I wouldn't consider it p2w since we have already better options to get these buffs for even longer duration. It would add a nice flavor to these items. The above buffs seem to be logical and would match the storm theme very well.

Then it would have to share cooldown with potions otherwise this item would become mandatory in pvp.

Adding SKINS to crown crates? Just no.....

There are 4 available in-game atm:
• Soul Shriven - grindfest in IC. Rarely anyone actually gets it.
• Spiderkith/Amberplasm - Both very difficult to get, but are popular due to the expoitation of the past scaling bug. I've seen CP50-200 players with these skins
• Dromathra - Maybe 0.0001% of players will ever have the *opportunity* to acquire this skin

Off the Crown Store we've had one skin - Mind Shriven.

I do NOT want Crown Crates including more items. You want them to have skins. Next it will Crown Crate-only motifs, then costumes, then dyes, then any and everything else..... this is how gambling crates work. They're poisonous to any game that adopts them.

Please do not encourage it.

I don't like it either, but at least this way the Atronach skin would not be exclusive. You could earn it in-game, so it really wouldn't be a problem. Having no other way to obtain it other than crates is a problem.

AnviOfVai · December 2016

I think the Aura should be a skin/polymorph or something as well... I think all the items in the crowncrates should be available to get in game too.

(perhaps an update in 5 years time?

)

Yes, yes they should.

Wow, you're optimistic xD

I mainly have to 100% disagree with your original post because ZOS will definitely look into Crown Crate exclusive skins and this thread generally shows an interest from players for them to do it. That skin will be another Apex reward guaranteed.

The second part of your post won't even be read by the Devs. I hope you know that. Cool, generous additions such as that are nonexistant in ESO's future.

DPShiro · December 2016

1. Yes it should be a skin.
2. No not that simple, make it an reward for completing vMoL with a flawless run (no deaths).

Although since it's already been implemented, it's not going to change. But there will surely be new skins to earn in Vvardenfell, hopefully Red Mountain Trial.

Mishanya · December 2016

But no death in Tempest is not that hard. There should be several achivements to get skin.

Ever tried it with pugs on the final boss? You deserve a medal for a no death run under them circumstances. My god..

Believe me, I did no death on one char with pugs.
Also there are many achivements in vet dungeons, that are harder than TI no death. But since atro transform is awesome, I believe, you need some work to get this, not that easy, you can get it with pugs.

Crow items should never, ever, ever, ever, ever provide buffs. Ever.

In regards to "better options already available", exactly what good options does a Magicka Templar have to get major and minor expedition? Rapids will use 8000 out of a 9000 base stamina pool, or a potion in which case it clearly becomes a better option to use the transform rather than a consumable.

Making it put your potions on cooldown? Yah no one will have a problem with that. lol.

No, it is just not a good idea to have buffs in the store on special items.

I have a feeling that you refer to pvp and as someone above noticed it is memento so it's disabled in Cyrodiil. I didn't mean these items should provide significant, useful buffs, just a small flavor added to them, even if this expedition buff lasted 3 sec with 2 min cooldown.

Tempest was picked to fit with the whole Atronach theme. If you know of a more suitable place, feel free to comment. As with most of my posts, generally the values I provide are just examples.

Hah, well that actually deserves a +1

1000 Crown Gems for Maelstrom Weapon of choice!

/sarcasm

P.S.: Personally, I wouldn't mind and actually get one... and enjoy ESO in a competitive way for some time before it dies in moneygrab and p2w.

Skcarkden · December 2016

If it were a skin then it wouldn't be able to do what it does now, I'm using Scarecrow Polymorph, skins/costumes and poly's clash, polymorph overides all.

I want it to remain a memento, but to be a permanent toggle. untill taken off again by choice.

Or atleast for ZOS to maybe make an actual Aura collection tab that retain this function.

idk · December 2016

@Alucardo

Great idea, but it would be added to a future crown crate, not tempest islands.

I'm not sure the moderators are up to the task for that once it hits the forums.

Angzt · January 2017

Please dear devs increase the duration to... let’s say an hour or so!... or even make it a polymorph! Please!
