    Fixed an issue where the copied damage from this ability and its morphs was significantly higher than intended against other player characters.

    Can you replace this line with specifics of what was wrong and what you did to fix it.

    Well, before instead of copy 2x more damage (ignore battle spirt) it multiplied 2x more damage on each next hit. 2x, 4x, 6x.. Just mess with storing damage code.

    "we have made further changes and bug fixes to ensure the damage from this ability is more fairly balanced in PvP"

    Because who cares about PvE right? We can totally just throw all PvE dps under the bus, as long as the portion of players who only PvP are happy, what do the devs care?

    Is the final hit from POTL or backlash unblockable? I recall seeing this in a previous PTS, although I am unsure if the skill still functions this way since you did not list it in these notes. Please reply, this is a vital piece of info!

    Oh NO! Please don't do this! Please have housing mats at LEAST have the same chance to appear in survey nodes as they do in normal nodes. Please!

    I'm imagining a stream of @ZOS_RichLambert giggling excitedly while building his up his destro ultimate followed by laughing wildly when he activates it. This will lead immediately to him mumbling "Oh wow...that was awesome you guys. Did you see that? That was awesome".

    Oh great, there goes another source of furnishing mats. You guys should have fixed this bug the other way around, so that every survey report node gave a guaranteed furnishing material.

    I have no idea what you guys were expecting with one week before release. There is not enough time for any additional major changes to be tested properly, and if they introduce new bugs, GG.

    Are you *** kidding me? pvp community has gotten no love since imperial city. Almost a year and a half ago. And you wanna cry about your pve dps in your delves and public dungeons? Hell even vet dungeons are a joke.

    I welcome any bug fixes, but I was really hoping for some more balance changes. But I also understand it's very risky to do changes so close to release.

    Leaving the blazing spear nerf even though 0% of the community agrees is a strange one ZOS. A fix to the Luminous "CC" would have helped but to do nothing is a down right joke.

    I doubt those grinding writs for survey reports would be interested in buying furniture for crowns at any rate. This is going to just make people sad and possibly avoid the housing system altogether.

    I wonder if half the player base just running around for the next month farming mats will fix the lag issues?

    Agreed. Getting all the gold needed to buy stuff, getting all the mats needed to craft stuff, completing all the quests needed to unlock stuff, finding all the plans needed to make stuff -- there's just too much to do even to get started. I understand that it's supposed to be a big time sink, but there's not even a small amount of things to get you started. You don't know any crafting plans and the furnishings available at the vendors are not substantial enough (most of them are plants and rocks anyway, which is completely useless for the first few houses which are interiors only).

    I don't think the grind would be so bad if we had a better starting point to build from. We really need a few crafting plans and some mats to get started. The logical crafting plans to give would be the ones for white-quality furnishings in your own racial style. And maybe you could come across a bundle of mats during that housing introductory quest.

    It's almost like balance shouldn't be something that only happens once every few months....yep. It's almost like that.
