Lost around 500 Magicka/health after wolf hunter update

wbernardo24 · August 2018

After the wolf hunter update I noticed when I logged in my health and magic were both decreased by around 500 I look at all the patch notes and can’t find any reason why that would happen I’m a pet magic sorcerer I run five pieces of necro and 5 destro mastery and 2piece Valkyn And none of that was affected I reread it over and over I don’t see where I would get to decrease I’m just curious if this happened to anyone else 500 is a lot to lose for both magic and health

I tested out the food I Eat thinking that it was giving me incorrect stats because the food that I eat increases magic and health but it wasn’t that after I tested

It was a bug in Summerset that was giving you more than intended. See https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/428880/my-resources-are-lower-on-pts-right-now-is-this-a-bug-solved

And ZoS answer in https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/430349/stats-have-dropped-again why it was happening (food was scaling to weapon quality, so blue food was being somewhat scaled up due to being treated as gold).

So what your saying is I have been having elevated stats the whole time and haven’t noticed and it just corrected itself now? As far as the elevated stats when did that start happening did they say? @Lorem123

Lorem123 · August 2018

It started happening with the Summerset update. The stats you have now are what you had pre-Summerset (assuming no other change to your build).

I noticed immediately after Summerset because I always remember my max health is 18430 and it became 18888 after it (I'm a pet sorc). Had it been only magicka I would have never noticed because I remember only the first two digits of the amount I have. lol

wbernardo24 · August 2018

Did it happen to you Magicka and health both? And was it because of you using blue food also @Lorem123

wbernardo24 · August 2018

What odd is gold and purple food offer more time and tristat but gives less stats then blue , blue gives higher stats but only raises two things , so if it scaled to gold like my weapon I feel like my stats would decrease after Summerset then raise now after correction right? If u think about it in that way

I'm using mag and Stam Regen drinks and somehow gained 700 health. All other stats identical though

Lorem123 · August 2018

Yes it affected both my health and mag because I use blue food.

This game's code is... pretty bad ("spaghetti code" as some say) so this kind of awkward stuff isn't that surprising.
Gear scales its values based on quality, which can be scaled through improvement. Food quality cannot be scaled (blue and purple foods for example are entirely different items, they're not the higher quality of the same) but if it hypotetically could it would probably behave just like gear, having slightly higher values. The bug caused it to scale in an unintended way.

Yea got it, now I have to get used to the lower stats exp the health lol @Lorem123

The bug is not because of the fix.
I'm losing 500 magicka on frontbar after I switch bars.
Tried it out completely naked with same weapon on both bars.

I lost about 100 all stats, was inconbat in cyrodiil, about to run out of same food, I used the food and lost 400 on all stats after that... so yeah about 500 less in strage random manners and cant get them back. Someone was saying tat your base stats go down...

maxjapank · September 2018

There is some bug related to poisons. If you have a poison equipped when you eat food, you will lose roughly 500 of each stat. If you eat the food without the poison equipped, you will get those 500 back. Someone told me as I couldn’t figure out why I was losing and gaining stats. But it was just because I had poisons on only one bar. And when I ate food on that bar, I’d lose the stats. But when I ate on the other bar without poisons, I’d get them back. This was with purple max stat food and I haven’t tested anything else.

This is what was told to me I think it’s *** @maxjapank @bpmachete @Ariades_swe

Greetings!

Thank you for contacting The Elder Scrolls Online Team.

This apparent drop in stats after Update 19 was the result of a bug fix included in that patch. Food was previously based on the quality of your weapon; it is now correctly based on the quality of the food. This may result in some slightly lower stats in some circumstances.

Please note: there is still an outstanding issue with poisons - if food is used while a poison is equipped, it will be based on the poison's level and quality rather than that of the food. This will be fixed in the next update.
Thank you for your continued interest and support!

Check your pockets in other jeans or a jacket that you didn’t wear for some time

I lost 300 Magicka somehow

I used to have 34.4k Magicka WITH food... now with food I only have 34.1k.

I don't play PVP - and naturally as a Mag character I have never once used Poisons on him... so it's not that for me

said it was a food bug that everyone had elevated stats after Summerset and must not have realized it and now after this update they did a silent patch to fix that issue and now everyone has the stats they had pre Summerset prodiving they have same sets and skills ect but that’s what they told me I think it’s *** but I don’t hoenstly know what my stats were prior to Summerset I wish I did @lagrue

Ah, I would have NEVER realized. I had a 1 year hiatus from the game after Morrowind, I only came back when Summerset dropped. No idea my stats were elevated this whole time.

I guess that does explain it all then. Only 300 lost for me, not a huge deal but still kinda poopy.

Yeah they are actually incorrect. I had no poisons, and the food I ate gave me less stats than the build editor says I was supposed to have by 100. THEN I ate food again when it ran out, and I had a further loss of 400 more now 500 less on all stats.

They can't say they "fixed" it and then when you eat food it changes around. Also a guy posted that there was an irreversable thing that happened with the base stats maybe that has something to do with it... I don't know what it is, makes no sense but for sure somthing is broken...

But man yesterda xbox na, dragon leap what a disaster... I would use it and get no hit at all, just land on the player without doing any damage or showing any number at all and then I couldn't use any abilities for a while... it happened almost every time I used it... they have to work on their game man it's bad right now their coding is way off

Yeah and how come it changes around? Sometimes it's 100 sometimes 500? What? Smh it's bugged.
