Nope. Cats and dragons. And more dragons! And even more dragons!
And scales! Don't forget the scales!
I found the whole presentation rather meh - drop a couple DLC names, crow about how many new players you have but no real substance.
Where's my Bosmer stealth, Matt?10 -

✭✭✭I'm tired of killing dragons...
I'm just tired, period, at this point.
The Elsweyr boss dailies are bugged, so I can't do many of them, without losing the plot entirely.
You try to explain to people, over and over, to please wait for everyone to get the q items first, but they never do.
They just don't seem to understand...
So, you, or someone else, gets the quest bug (i.e. one of the q items disappear) and then you (or they) have to drop the quest, go and pick it up again and hope the same thing doesn't happen again.
Then you have to expain, for 999th time, what happened and why.
Knowing, all too well, that they will have forgotten again, by the next time.
Maybe I'll go back to stealing?
Oh no, I can't - it's not like it used to be.
Did I mention I'm tired of killing dragons...?

✭✭✭✭✭maybe they make special bosmer DLC, where we can hunt and eat well --- you know - #justbosmerthings.
Hopefully. But from the looks of it, that won't come before Q2 2020, as Q1 is almost certainly going to be yet another dungeon DLC and the rest of the season of the dragon is already set in stone. We can only hope that in Pelletine the jungle allows for more sneakiness and that ZOS addresses our problems by then. The dragon guard will probably take the main focus of that DLC, so we'll probably not get that awesome new stealth system that's supposed to fix everything.This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.3 -

✭✭✭✭✭Funny how the closest I've come to purchase Elsweyr over all this is the special deal Elder Scrolls Legends offers for ESO players. Now I am tempted to buy Elsweyr not because of ESO but because of another game, which actually hasn't been messing with TES lore at all so far.
ZOS should be glad they have others covering their backs for them. I still won't resub though until that's fixed. I recently sold like 40 furnishing plans, so my inventory management is going well even without ESO+.
Give Bosmer their stealth back and you can count on my money again!This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.5 -

✭✭Fast orcs (should be a low one it's kinda minor).
Archery combat bonuses for Imperials, Redguards, Dunmer, and Orcs -- but none for Bosmer.
Maybe:
The Nord alliance with the Dunmer, too. I remember being surprised the Nords have given up Solstheim after the Red Year since that was a relationship that had always been strained.
Dragons everywhere.
Taking stealth away from the Bosmer is like taking magic away from the Altmer, making Nords allergic to mead, or making Orcs pretty.0 -

Oh would you look at that. FudgeMuppet made a video on Bosmer. And what does he say at 5:07 ?
It gets even more juicy at 8:47 about the rite of theft. Sadly the forest coupling is not mentioned, but then again we haven't really seen it in any of the games (possibly because it's impossible to implement).Bosmer are also known for being very quick, nimble and agile and more specifically, very stealthy and also natural born archers.
If you are wondering why this is relevant, well FudgeMuppet is a TES lore channel but focusing more on Skyrim and TESVI speculations. Although he uses ESO lore for some of his videos (sometimes even letting it shine through when it's not making much sense), it's pretty clear he doesn't play the game. So he's pretty much an outside view unaffected by the balance decisions taken by ZOS and ESO's patch history. If he can recognize that Woodelfs are stealthy and we can recognize that Woodelfs are stealthy, then why can't ZOS?Edited by Ratzkifal on June 15, 2019 4:41PMThis Bosmer was tortured to death.

If it's from youtube just put [ youtube ] video id [ / youtube ] around it (get rid of spaces)

✭✭✭✭✭@TelvanniWizard You noticed! I thought it was too subtle.
Sorry I could not get back to it yesterday. There was an emergency at work.
Here is the latest version.
Changes from previous version;
• Added suggestions from @Cundu_Ertur
• Changed font sizes slightly for better readability.
• Added Lore Destruction description on the bottom.
I went through it (quickly) to check for spelling etc, let me know if I missed anything. I am open to any changes, but I am trying to keep it in the style of the source material so nothing too long.7 -

"Redguards aren't best swordsmen"
I mean through all games we heard that Redguards have exceptional melee martial skill, notably higher then other races, but now they are clearly behind Orcs and Dunmers which is strange imo.

Yes, best with melee bladed weapons like swords, scimitars, axes. But not with bows and magic staves.0 -

https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Redguard_(Oblivion)
https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Redguard_(Skyrim)
All of these state at the very least more proficient with weapons if not the best at them and did not exclude bows/staves. They also suggest an emphasis on swords/blades. Not to mention the lack of poison resistance in which the main article states
https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Redguard
Edit: If combat were a grading scale, Redguards would score straight As at all weapons with a big A+ on swords. I can agree that they will score lower with magic due to their weariness of magic in general. Bosmers would easily get top grades with an A+ at bows, Altmer with staves and so on.Edited by JobooAGS on June 14, 2019 3:48PM0 -

Jordan.nick11b14_ESO✭✭✭✭Signed. Wood elves (which I loathe) should def. keep their stealth passive. Please don't turn this game into a version of FF14...they have a well earned reputation for nerfing jobs and homogenizing everything. Please keep the races different...7
