Anyone else worried it will be a bit Morrowind centric and not work so well for non-Dunmer characters? In the live stream he talked about "the key creatures from Morrowind". Yes, I know there's a bear, but I'm worried the rest of the summoning line is going to be highly Dunmer flavored to fit in with the new expansion.

Orsinium had orc flavor as it should, so what's wrong with Morrowind being Morrowind? That's what we old school ES III: Morrowind fans wanted to happen loooong time ago.

But Orsinium didn't include a whole new class which was pitched only at Orcs. Granted I might be getting ahead of myself here based on one line in the live stream, but I had this nice idea of a druid/wyress type character and can't help feeling that unless they are a Dunmer then summoning Cliff Racers is going to feel weird.

The special edition is going to have a skin for the Bear. I'm hopeful that other such skins might be made available for the other pets Ie: Cliff racer alternate could be an Eagle. Nix Hound could be a Wolf, etc etc.

I am ecstatic. When the Warden releases I'll grind one to max that day and PvP a ton with it, even raid over the first few weeks.

It's going to be a frantic release, with Wardens everywhere I expect! .

I won't do the grinding thing. I've wanted the warden since launch - I'll end up playing through all the content and missions with ax warden as my new main.
It's been a year or so since I leveled a character, so most of the story content should be relatively fresh for me.

Also, with one Tamriel, I'll be able to make my warden in the dominion but do the pact zones first. Makes more sense getting my bear and other pet abilities there, seeing as how most of them are based on morrowind creatures. Once through the pact zones I can make my way back to the dominion. Feels like a more natural progression to me without giving up my preferred faction

This was posted on the ESO Reddit thread - (its not my information)

German Website Gamestar.de released additional information on the Warden's abilities that they gathered from an exclusive interview:
ICE Skill-Line:
- Kind of a damage shield
- Some way to protect the whole group/trial party
- A glyph that you can place on the ground, if an enemy steps on it, it ports him back to the warden.
- It is also mentioned that the Warden has a healing ability that grants a burst heal and then an additional Healing-over-time effect.
NATURE Skill-Line:
- A cone heal mechanic
- some way to leech hp (translation not clear, they used "Energy" here) from enemies of some sorts
- A gap closer to a friendly target.
- The ultimate lets grow a forest with - presumably - trees that grant healing in an area.
ANIMAL COMPANION SKill-Line:
- A cliffracer that does a swooping attack
- An Area-of-Effect Ability using a mole.
- An insect swarm.
- Calling in a netch bull for a buff.
- And the already known bear for the ultimate.
I've to apologize if some of the translations are off, but i wanted to share this with you ;-) Please remember that all of that isn't offically confirmed, so take it with a grain of salt...

I'm super hyped for warden as it will be my new main, but if this info is somewhat correct I'm a little underwhelmed by moles and netches. Seems like they are going a little too Morrowindish with it. Not really understanding that teleport glyph either.

But hey! Nature oriented summoner class coming, couldn't be more pumped even if it is a little too Dunmerish!!

Last Time I heard the Frost Magic Abilites have Both defensive and offensive buffs and spells.

I don't mind the Bug Swarms and Mole Pet... #molesarecute

I really wish they replace the Cliff Racer with an Owl (#lovefarcryprimal), and replae the Fart Bag (Netch) with a Dire Wolf Pet.

Just fyi, the warden only has one actual pet, and that's the bear ultimate. The other skills in the animal line are just spells that have animal based aesthetics. Even the netch is likely an unkillable area buff that's just displayed with a netch visual instead of the rune circle or glowing sphere that other classes might get.

The warden does, in fact, have an execute,but it's tied to one of the bear ultimate morphs. The first morph causes the bear to self revive if it dies. The other morph increases the bears damage and allows you to continue generating ultimate. Activating that morph while the bear is alive causes it to enrage, dealing increased damage and giving it an execute damage bonus when hitting low health enemies. It's a little less controllable than a standard execute, but also won't take up extra space on your ability bar or interfere with your own attacks. You could possibly even combine the enraged bear with steel tornado or reverse slice for serious execute damage.

Source? I believe what you said but I would like to know more, from where you got the info.

Here's the copy pasta of everything that was said regarding the warden though:



Warden Class
- To play a Warden you will have to start a new character, no class changes.
- A big reason they included the class with the Chapter was because if it were in DLC and included in ESO Plus, it raises questions as to whether you could continue to play the character after your subscription lapses, so this makes it a permanent purchase.
- The "defensive ice magic" line is called "Winter's Embrace", the "nature-based healing" line is called "Green Balance", and the "animal DPS" line is called "Animal Companions".
- The Winter's Embrace line includes offensive and defensive self-buffs and protective magic.
- The Green Balance line includes Fungal Growth (cone-shaped AOE heal) and Healing Seed (gets dropped on the ground and can be used by anyone). In general it's more "healing what's in front of you" and less AOE.
- The Animal Companion line includes an ability to summon a cliff racer to attack your enemy and a swarm of bugs that does AOE damage.
- The Warden's bear summon ultimate needs to be on the active bar to be maintained, so be prepared to slot it on both bars.
- The bear has two morphs. One automatically re-summons the bear if it dies, without requiring you to recharge your ultimate. The other becomes a DPS machine, and you gain ultimate while it's active. Using the gained ultimate triggers the bear's enrage, gaining overall strength and doing more damage to enemies in execute range.
- The Warden's netch ability can be used on the back bar and then swapped.
- The Warden is very flexible; Rich Lambert expects it to best fill the off-tank/off-healer role in large group content, and to do well in PvP as an all-arounder. In tests it has functioned perfectly well as a main tank, healer and DPS, but seems to shine best as off-tank/off-healer.
- The Warden may shine as part of a Bow DPS build, possessing many ranged Stamina abilities.
- ZOS wants the Warden to be a competitive DPS.
- The Warden cannot ride its summoned bear. Sorry, folks.

Any details on the skills/ultimates of the new class?

There was a page covering the skill trees in this months Xbox mag in the UK. If you don't have access I'm sure it's been posted somewhere in forums/reddit.
