    Ha!!! You must be joking baby!?

    What a load of rubbish..

    Watch the last eso live on bethesdas twitch channel, the only reason that jack of all trades didn't die multiple times against nothing more than trash mobs was because they had an immortality cheat on, they said as much on the blood show :D

    It's not pay to win, its pay to play a great zone but a useless class B)

    Anything, I don't care what it is, if it's related to combat like gear, abilities, classes, and it's behind a pay wall, it's Pay To Win.


    ESO has officially went P2W.

    By your resoning
    Base game is p2w since you need to buy the disc
    Dlc and all their content/ gear( lorkaj gear anyone)are p2w
    Morrowind and all the content/gear inside is p2w

    Warden is pw2 even if he is given for free with morrowind

    Keep in mind if they really wanted it to be p2w it would have been dold separatly for 5k

    Meh. I'm going to be an unhappy camper in U14. My MagDK is already basically unsustainable without really good group support. Next update, with the devs removing Magician, she's going to be pretty much unplayable.

    I'm going to have to accept that my mDK will be consigned to the PVP trashcan. Sucks.

    I think Altmer maybe the way to go for Magicka DK in Morrowind. Yes you lose 3% fire damage but the 9% extra regen i think is too much to pass on.

    Most of the big MMOs lock new classes behind a paywall with their expansion release (WoW, GW2). If you're saying it's P2W just because you have to buy the expansion to have it available to you, well you have to buy the game to have the first classes available. What's the difference?

    WTF are you talking about? EVERYTHING is technically behind some kind of pay wall.

    Feel free to exit stage left if you feel that strongly against it. As far as I know, most if not all games introduce new classes, races, etc with PAID FOR expansions. By your thinking, everything is P2W.

    As far as buff trackers... meh! Those'll prolly be base game update.

    I've taken a break since RNG procs ruined PVP as soon as player vs player duels came in....

    So the warden is behind a pay wall? So ESO has OFFICIALLY went Pay 2 Win... great.

    How can you say its pay to win? For all we know warden is weak and pay to lose

    How is it pay to win? If you don't buy the expansion/DLC than you don't get access to the new content. It's been that way since the first MMO. The addition to the warden class comes with Morrowind expansion not the base game. You don't even need a warden to "win".

    This argument I refuted many times over. I wont bump this thread again, might as well lock it but here's how it is.


    Just because you put out a new class during an expansion does not make that new class non-p2w. Just because you dont directly and only buy a class, doesn't mean it's not P2W since it's behind expansion wall.


    If you believe every expansion justifies P2W, then how about they make warden super OP. Will it be P2W then? Thought so.

    Funny how OP keeps harping on Warden being P2W (which it is not), but neglects all the comments about his belief that 'setting up buff trackers on addons is a hassle'. Just WOW. Perhaps if a person doesn't understand how a PC works they shouldn't be playing on a PC, because every buff tracker addon I've used has been super easy to setup and most are account wide so all you have to do is set them up once and they're good to go for all your characters.

    I always love it when people's opinions become their 'facts'... that, "just because I said so therefore it is a fact". Whatever.

    not really pay to win to be honest.

    Every virtually every MMO puts a new class behind a paywall.

    Okay sure the warden will be OP at first but then it will get nerfed. Besides, playing a character well does take skill regardless of how op its considered, you can have all the op crap in the world but still get your ass handed too you by someone better than you purely because they understand your class and their own better than you do.
    Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.

    By that logic ESO went p2w with the Orsinium update/ Maelstrom. I wish I could see through the eyes of a potato.

    Yeah, I sure hope the buff tracker will be a toggle. If I wanted stuff like that, which I don't, I'd use an addon.

      The expansion and its content, including Warden, is not P2W.

      Anyway, I'm not going to roll a Warden right away. At release, there will be too many people running around with that bear and a garden of mushrooms in both PvP and alliance capitals. I'll wait until the fad wears off and then theorycraft a decent build.

      And by theory craft a decent build you mean you will use what others made while u didnt play one ;P

      The Warden is apart of the expansion. So, if you buy the expansion you get the new class.

      Calling the warden "pay to win" is kind of dumb. They HAD to make a new character class paid content, because if they didn't, people would get it with a subscription, spend four months (or a year) on the character, then let their subscription lapse accidentally, forgetting they'd lose the warden if that happened, then they'd scream bloody murder because the character they've been playing for the past four months just disappeared. If they make wardens paid content and ONLY paid content, they won't have to deal with the screams from players losing their characters because a sub lapsed.

      It's the same reason that player houses can only go into areas that are paid content exclusively.

      Sole reason why, after years of struggling to get ability IDs, going through the hassel of setting up the buff trackers on ur screen with addons, they finally added something that should of been in game since day 1.


      Also maybe the warden too, depends if they put it behind a pay wall. (Pay to win)

      Ok where are people getting all this update info? Seriously now.

      ESO live showed the buff tracker Zos is adding.

      Forgot to tell @Smasherx74 that Warden is part of the expansion. Need to buy the expansion to play it. Also need to buy the expansion to play the new battle grounds PvP. Call it what you will, still not giving you your stuff back if you return.
