Yea, I love that they’re doing this. It’s bothered me that there’s no combat log in the game for a while. Some things though:
- they mentioned it might not work well in pvp zones, or work at all? I wasn’t clear on this part of the video. Maybe he just meant it would write too much in pvp and bog down your pc
- he mentioned an issue I noticed that right now CMX has issues because it counts overhealing because how info was displayed. It’ll be corrected
- It will give people more information so people will really be able to tweak their specs. Right now I have to guess a lot of things and go by intuition. Give me a log and I’ll have hard numbers to compare sets
Can’t wait!
I think that'll be hilarious, especially if down the road this does come to console. So many players running "secret" PvP builds...easy to tell the gear set up from a damage parse. Might be bad if you're trying to keep that OP build to yourself.
Edit: Let me ask in another way.
How many players, who might not view the forum, are going to want to test their burst against live players, (with resists and such, not like a test dummy) either in Cyrodiil or BG's, will upload their data not knowing they are basically putting their build on display for all to see?
This WILL change PvP in ESO.
I posted this in the main thread in general discussion , but I'll ask here as well....
Does this track all data? Including PvP?

Might make PvP a little more...copy pasted (I dont know a good term to use at the moment...carbon copy gear wise) than it already is now. And good luck keeping builds to yourself...those days are over. Even if you're listed as anonymous, that data is out there....

You sound pretty insecure when it comes to PvP, there are no "secret sets" and "secret setups" its all well established and out there if you just open your eyes.Edit: Let me ask in another way.

I guess you dont understand how logging will work, everyone that wants to upload logs to the website requires an dedicated addon and account for that specific website.
When they upload it, its automatically set to private and only the owner who uploaded the log can look up what happened in that "fight", unless they decide to publicate it, then its open to view for everyone.
The owner can still keep it on private and share the log via link, kinda works like unlisted videos on youtube.
