    Yes. The new combat design lead is the former head of PvP combat design. And it shows, because many of the changes in the recent patch were made exclusively with PvP in mind. I'm very disappointed in the direction this game is heading in.

    I agree. The two should fit seamlessly together, now it appears PvP is being given a lot more emphasis than PvE. Having racial passives that exist exclusively for PvP should never have been put on a whiteboard, much less made it into the game.

    It's super disappointing.

    LOL. PvP only constitutes a tiny fraction of this increadibly large game, has not received any overhauls since launch (cyrodiil) and has not received any love for years. At the same time there is hundreds of dungoens, raids, thousands of quests, thieves guild, dark brotherhood, housing. Are you for real? If you talk about class development, it simply doesn't make sense to balance them around PvE because it is way easier to just rebalance NPCs (that won't qq on forums).

    Or are you one of those who complain because their high elf may lose its 0,5k dps advantage over breton?

    We had Stealth racials for almost 5 years and none of you complainers complained back then about PvP exclusive racials. You complain now because your race has been hit and you don't like it. Don't act like you all of a sudden care about PvP exclusive racials now.

    Some racials have always been better in PvP and some have always been better in PvE. I don't see any that shut off when you leave Cyrodiil or anything.

    The game definitely started off with a pvp focus. The Alliance War was a big selling point but it never lived up to its promise of delivering epic siege battles and focus shifted towards almost entirely pve content. Which makes many recent changes even more bizarre. Balance is getting better imo but when the majority of a games populance and content is pve why make so many pvp based changes?

    Destroyable bridges, additional keeps, arenas, imperial city, Different campaign types,... You have not played since launch have you.

    So you admit there is less PvP players but the actual question is;

    "Do you feel PvP is becoming more important than PvE?" As in are they forsaking the PvE crowd and are now putting more focus on PvP.

    Such as putting PvP only passives in the racials.

    Stealth detect is PvP only racial. And I have yet to see a DLC based around Stamina regen, but we have two DLCs that use stealth as a chief gameplay mechanic. Not to mention the whole concept of the justice system.

    I suppose, strictly speaking, stealth detect IS a PvP only racial. Is there a single use for that in PvE?

    Otherwise:
    Stamina regen is not a PVP only racial. Roll dodge speed is not a PVP only racial. Offstat is not a PVP only racial.

    And there are literally 100% of all DLCs and Chapters dedicated towards bashing, blocking and roll dodging where you need Stamina so what's your point?

    But sure, we have 2 Stealth DLCs that's why Stealth now matters in PvE. LOL.

    No? 95% of the attention goes to PvE in this game. It should be 50-50 and before people say "oh but it's a game revolving around PvE!!!111", no this game was heavily advertised for it's PvP before and at launch by ZOS and the majority of Youtubers. It was pretty much the selling point of the game at launch.
    Overload rework. Power Overload now does physical damage and grants you the power of a tornado: You throw a brick at the target with a light attack, and you hammer your head into that brick with every heavy attack. We have decreased its Ultimate cost, but increased the chance that you get stuck in the animation.

    Watch them throw in a quest where stealth detect is relevant in the next DLC, just to forestall this argument. Something super gimmicky lol.

    As I mentioned upthread, this is the one where yeah, it does seem literally PvP specific. IMO, it really should either be replaced, reverted to a stealth bonus, or have (even a token) secondary effect that works in both.

    Mechanics that require those actions are limited and spaced apart enough that you never run out of stamina.

    You can poll every single magicka DD on leader boards and not one will tell you that they ever felt a need for more stamina regen.

    You're basically supporting my point that we had PvP exclusive racials for years and none of the complainers here cared for them - at all. They do seem to care now because they need new arguments why they may not like some new racials.

    Stealth passives objectively make you more effective at stealing/assassinating.

    Stamina regen doesn't objectively make you better at dungeons and trials becauae you already have all the stamina you need. Dungeons and trials are explicitly designed to require minimal stamina use so that magicka characters can complete them.

    I don’t think you know what the word “exclusive” means.

    Stealth was NEVR used “exclusively” in Cyrodiil (PvP). Stealth detect has zero uses in pve which makes it an “exclusive” PvP racial.
