Played at launch, thinking of returning: has the phasing while grouped issue been resolved?

I played ESO at launch in 2014 with a couple of friends. There was an annoying issue with phasing when grouped, if everyone was not at on the same quests at the same time. It became a game breaker for the others. I played through solo until the end of the story, but eventually left to play other games with my friends. We are considering returning to ESO, but are concerned that the group phasing will be a problem for us again. Has this been addressed?

    Sorry but no the quest gameplay is still the same mate and don't use Group Finder if you are doing Dungeons.

    It is not clear what exactly you are talking about.

    There are quest areas that by design players will be in different phases, one for those who completed the quest and one for those who have not. The area changes. That is intended and will not be changing.

    There was another issue where the area does not change and players can end up in different phases. This phase issue can still occur when in a private instance and traveling to player resolves it. It is not a big deal since it is easily solved and does not happen often.

    As long as youre not returning for the pvp, cause performance isnt any better, and save yourself some frustration and just stay clear of it. PvE, im sure its fine, but the phasing issue is not fixed:D:D

    They drastically reduced the number of quests that are affected by the old phasing issue. Getting ahead in the quest line for a lot of those old quests simply results in mobs changing from hostile to neutral now.

    You shouldn’t have as much of a problem with it these days as you did at launch.

    Best way is always to check for yourself, what's the problem? Stop thinking so much and just return :).

    I don't know what you mean, but people do dailies while grouped all the time.

    Also Group FInder is fastest way to level a new character, so I don't know what the person above me is talking about.
