The time and effort involved in vMA or vDSA is far and above that of a regular vet dungeon, yet a vet dungeon can give you 10 times more crystals in less that a quarter of the time.

You should get more crystals for activities that are harder and/or take more time to achieve.

vMA/vDSA need to be re-classified as higher up the chain than a standard vet dungeon. Would suggest 7 for vMA as you can do it solo, and 10 for vDSA as this is usually a bit longer and involves a group.

Agree with this!

Increased the cost of Transmutation from 40 to 50 Crystals.

30-Day campaign Leaderboards now grant 40 Transmute Crystals each, and 7-Day campaign Leaderboards now grant 4 Transmute Crystals each.

Please have 30 day campaigns drop 50 crystals (30 days of work = 1 trait change) and make the penalty for playing 7 days much less severe. If the 7 day reward was 10 Crystals, that would be on par with how 7 campaigns drop 1 set reward item where 30 day campaigns drop 5. So 5 weeks of work = 1 trait change.

As it stands now, at 4 crystals per week, people who play 7 day campaigns would need to play 13 weeks to transmute a single item.

Transmutation Geodes will no longer stack, which was causing an issue where using multiple Transmutation Geodes in quick succession would cause you not to get any Transmute Crystals.

Please make these stack or else increase storage. Since geodes are going ot be dropping in all kinds of content, some with only a single crystal, unstackable geodes is going to be an inventory nightmare.

why would they do that make the 7 day rewards worth something wow I thought they just wanted everyone in one campaign so it lags more. but what does the campaign rewards matter because I keep jumping from one to another because either its all dead or to laggy so

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but I'm late for work. So I'll just toss this here.

Wouldn't it make sense to get a Transmutation Crystal when turning in writs? After all, it's more in line with crafting than anything. Yes yes, I know they are battle rewards. That's fine. However it would be less annoying and feel like less of a grind to gain them IF they were awarded like gold improvement items, or survey maps. I don't mean a "chance" at them either. I mean, if you have completed your crafting writs for the day, you get at least one crystal. Or if you feel that's too easy, then you gain one for completing a high quality Master Writ.

The whole model of "you need 10 of these to make 1" and "find these umpteen pages to make one book", combined with the horrible RNG luck of some people is getting quite tiresome.

I miss the days of simply finding something in its entirety. I get that you all are trying to keep us engaged while presenting some sort of challenge, but honestly, this piece together system is awful. It also takes away time from the casual player, who more likely than not, won't even bother. I'd rather spend my time playing and enjoying the game instead of grinding what I need all the time.

Can ZOS get together and at least try to move away from this model? Please.

I don't have time to get into the class changes, or battlegrounds, but I have many thoughts on those as well. Be back after work.

So still no details whatsoever on the decision to change Battlegrounds from no-CP to CP? This is a HUGE change. We need some kind of dev note or other form of dialogue from ZOS discussing why this change has been made. There has a been a big outcry on forums against this change and the devs have been silent. Why suddenly make such a huge change to the way BGs have always been and without revealing any reasoning behind it? I and many others - in fact, the majority of players when looking at the forum polls - believe this change is a big mistake.

They just don't care about what is right for the game. They just want to applease the people who casually play and can't PvP without a zerg behind them. Ideally they should revert the change or even make it an option to play with cp or no cp like they do with cyrodil. But because people complain that probably isn't going to happen.

Sigh nothing about the rubidite coloring of asylum weapons

I think the coloring has more to do with the fact that brass often can have orange/reddish hues. Either that or to retain the look most other weapons tend to have being at that tier.

Has anybody tried a lower CP/level character getting an Asylum weapon at their level to see if it is colored differently?

yah but red weapons are a common complaint and is what often results in people asking for a transmog system

Excited when Launcher showed PTS Update v3.2.1 Download Complete! Account access required "Unknown IP Address" verification. Entered the code.

@ZOS_GinaBruno:
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom:

Was there also a silent update of the Launcher? After I entered the code, I had to adjust Gamma, then go through the license agreement, ToS, CoC, select Country, plus the Add-On disclaimer.

However, the Launcher then closed (not crashed) with Server Off-line for Maintenance.

Any ETA when PTS will be back online?

Except you can only store 200 crystals (400 now with ESO+).

@NBrookus
No. It's 100 for non-Subs and 200 for Subs. It was this way in the first vesion of the PTS but was not mentioned in the patch notes then. This patch note just indicates that this is now listed as a benefit. So non-Subs can hold a max of 2 retraits at a time, and Subs can hold 4.

Didn't even get the 2-3 Alliance War sentences I was hoping for. Was there a mix-up with the notes and that section is coming? No? Everything's good there? Great.

Would it help if we started calling Cyrodiil a "dungeon" when we discuss problems in there?

PvEers... they came in the night, overwhelmed us...

Might have to do with the change of the privacy "provider" (strange term), so you need to sign of the ToS again ?

Or, just open them as soon as you get them, and then they don't need to stack.

I love the way they change how something works instead of fixing the problem, ZO$ - How to Design Around Problems Instead of Fixing Them

I'm guessing the sorcs wouldn't be.

I'm guessing the Templars neither.

Reverse the forceful nerf.

In other words the usual, 'release balance changes at final patch that will go Live regardless of feedback'.
