Hello everyone and good day!

Today I like to share a very short story in what is going to lead up to my question. See back on the last day of March, 2018 I had left the gaming community ""Overall"" due to a situation that could not be helped. It was not until Late June of the same year when things became better and then in July I started returning to the gaming community. However that said, prior to that in February / March I "thought" I finally understood in my own way what I needed to do in order to build an immortal PvP tank. And I was really confident and proud that after years of playing my own style that I was able to accomplish such a feat.

I made a true indestructible tank that I would use to protect resources in Cyrodiil, and or if it were a Castle Keep raid I would make myself the target while our/well my factions DPS came in to defend and burn the invaders. So I was more of a last line of defense. However that said, I have another character that I made and I use it offensively as a Bow style ganker that did massive amounts of damage.

Alright, so after many months that have gone by since the first week of April of 2018, what the heck happened in terms of major changes? Is there a change log someone can point out to me that may help me understand what the developers did that pretty much made my characters almost useless? I mean in terms of, did they change the way armor traits work that reduce the cost of block? Did they mess with champion points in the way we have options to reduce cost block and or generate more shield power or another line that breaks shields of enemies? Was the way mundus stones work change? Or is it a combination of many things or just something overall specific that I can easily fix?

I ask this, to you of the community based on your expertise and experience regardless whether you know me or not, or like me or not. I know there may be some of you that remember me from way back when however things are different. I'm not saying that I'm famous or anything, I'm just saying that I have been though a lot and it changed me. I'm trying to become better at this in order to help my faction, and to give the other factions a fair challenge. On a personal level like anyone I just like to be good and since the tools are obviously there as soooo many seem to be running the same builds, it really is unfair to those, like me, that learn differently in order to be on that same level.

I'm not asking you to be my new best friend or have pity on me, I'm asking a community to which I game with for help in understanding what may have changed that messed up my 2 builds I use all the time for PvP that I once thought I knew what I was doing. And yes some people learn differently. Some people learn by hearing, some learn by seeing and so forth.

Well, I like to thank you all for reading this and if you take your time in thinking out an appropriate response I really do appreciate that. I'm sure in time I may figure it out by trial and error again, however I really do wish this time around to keep up with everyone and be on that same page. It's win/win for everyone. The enemy for me bring a fair challenge, my same alliance for bringing useful assistance, and myself for being good at what I do. ((apologies for anything mispelled))

May you have a blessed day!
