They laughed at me when I was drunk and crafted 160 gold precise daggers in Stahlrim with a frost enchantment last christmas! But, NO ONE'S LAUGHING NOW!!! MWHAAHAHA!

(Okay, actually I was sober at the time and just screwing around, but still.)

Remag_Div · July 2017

It won't affect me at all because I'm still nowhere close to getting BIS gear. lol

Thogard · July 2017

It will affect me significantly on my DK because all of his sets were nerfed. He was wearing:

Troll king (RIP)
Torug's Pact (RIP)
Viper (RIP?)

I've already bought infused weapons for a few different sets. With the change to infused, I can get close to the weapon enchant bonus I was getting with Torug's + infused on live. So I can replace Torug's with a damage dealing set and actually come out ahead.

The biggest thing I'll miss will be trolling. That set's health regen was so clutch in PvP. I'll have to replace it with bloodspawn or pirate skeleton, not sure which. Probably bloodspawn.

I think I'll keep viper for a while. I'm toying around with replacing Torug with seventh legion, fury, or shacklebreaker. Will try 7th first.

Kay1 · July 2017

I am getting buff, solo PvP is being buffed (rip the most annoying procs) and more variety with traits.

It won't affect me, I will be very happy to see those no skill nb with 3 proc sets go back to their orignal main and let people like me who knows how to Nightblade without proc enjoy this game again.

AAbrigo · July 2017

I will be fine.. Everything can work with my Tremorscale

Doctordarkspawn · July 2017

Given how little I play and given how much I refuse to play the new content from a mechanical standpoint, it wont.

It won't affect me. Only 300+ sharpened weapons I have. That I spent years farming. [pick up bottle and goes under desk to cry for days to come]

LOL

Why tho?

Sharpened was worth 5160. ZOS took some of that away, so now it's 2752, and that is 2408 less than you had.

However, ZOS also just gave you 30 more champion points. If you take only 27 of those and put them into piercing you will get back 2466 penetration.

So at the end of the day you have a few more champion points to spare, and the stam and crit buffs on your armor got stronger...

Yes but it looks to be more beneficial to go precise weapons and the Lover mundus stone (penetration) due to sharpened and thief nerf.

paulsimonps · July 2017

As a Tank in PvE this changes little, but I might go back to running Torug's Pact with Infused Crusher instead of Dragon. Will see.

ookami007 · July 2017

Currently, I'm rocking back and forth pretending the changes don't exist. Or that the aliens abduct me again before they happen.

all changes are positive lol, the dps will be higher by a long shot, and the sustain is easier too, no nerfs to heals/tank, so nothing affects them. there are only positive changes, and the new monster masks are sweet

I'll roll with whatever they toss at me. On the other hand, I'll hopefully have more nirnroot to use!!!

Not sure why this is a big deal. Out of all the reagents, Nirn is the easiest to find bar none. I actually find it pathetic that they took action on this non-issue while ignoring real issues.

The best thread I've seen on that topic is the one posted by Asayre here:

https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/359916/mundus-trait-and-cp-optimisation-for-pve-damage-dealers/p1

TLDR: it looks like sharp / lover is best for solo content and infused / precise + shadow is best for group content next patch.

That said, the point is the 'next best' weapon trait in either scenario is going to be a lot closer than it is now, which is ultimately going to make getting good weapons a lot easier, and that is ultimately why I'm all for the weapon trait adjustments.

Stam toons still NEED sharpened weapons or they will be under penetrating forsure next patch.

Magicka toons can run whatever since they get 4k penetration from light armor passives plus they can invest some into spell erosion.

Ha Ha Ha... no,

Stam here and my build on pts right now: Still at penetration cap, volley damage increassed, crit went up to 90% and I'm running shadow mundus stone. only 20 points into penetration when alone, and 4 when someone else in group. Did a VERY bad parse just to see how it would go, got 44k. all with PRECISE weapons, so yeah no sharpened.

Ah see, now I can tell you that I told you so

Malic · July 2017

Im changing my normal music selection when playing solo in cyrodiil. I have a few selections pending but to give you a sample this will be on the first weekend. (give it 3 min minimum, listen to the words...... )

OKAY he said effect instead of affect. Maybe he isn't English there isn't a need a patronise him.

You've literally come here to patronise someone and post your stats but genuinely no one cares lol

GF though for trying

HeathenDeacon · July 2017

how will it effect me?
-i dunno, 'cause... MATH.

seriously though, i'm sorta worried b/c currently i'm playin mostly non-cp pvp and i can't use Pen.cp to make up for Sharpened nerf.
If i go with the Pen. mundus i'll def. have to do alot of jugling in my build and yeah... math.

ccfeeling · July 2017

More players , more lag
I have never play mmo lag likes this

Beardimus · July 2017

I think change is good, mainly as my PvE sorc build was nerfed into the ground in Feb update and I haven't really rebuilt it yet.

Proc set reduction is good but no where near enough. In particular the way OP stamina combos.

PvP build is staying the same. Tho I think TBS offers some cool options now

Mazbt · July 2017

I might try a different mundus for fun but overall all my set ups should remain the same.

Ulo · July 2017

The next patch will have quite a big impact on most of my characters. But, it's not the strongest who survive but those who are most adaptable to change.

Current gear on my mblade on live 5x Julianos(divines) 5x Scathing 2x Iceheart (mixed),76.9% crit on pts 86.5% crit so will keep it like that. The rest of my toons I may change the mundus but we will see.

I pretty much have this exact same setup, but with 1 Iceheart because of two staffs. Are you using DW\Resto staff? How is that for sustain and light attack weaving?

Linaleah · July 2017

I won't be able to get all the gold furnishing recipes I wanted before they are switched out (my luck with writs is beyond abysmal)

on a plus side - BATHTUB. that's pretty much the effect that new update will have on me. its possibly I may go and change my mundus or something. otherwise, its pretty much business as usual.

I didn't post my stats just to post stats. I posted them to show the difference between Live and PTS. They are the EXACT same pieces of gear. Everyone is complaining that this patch is a nerf. In a way it is...for certain builds. Other specs got buffed as I demonstrated.

Oh, and it's "patronize" btw. Just to let you know
