Fine, but Where's the Compensation?

If you want to nerf long-standing, widely used armor sets, fine.

But if you're taking things from players, you need to compensate them for their loss. At least give every player who uses a nerfed set its cost in upgrade materials plus an allowance for the time it takes to acquire it.

As it stands the entire cost of change is born by players. There needs to be some friction in place for the developers. It has to cost the developers something, other than their time for which they draw a salary from, for taking things from players.

Just two weeks ago you offered Seventh Legion rings on the gold vendor knowing they'd be rendered useless. At least offer refunds for those.

    Besides the fact that they owe you nothing this idea would not have the effect you imagine. It wouldn't cost ZOS anything to give players those materials.

    Do you imagine they'll have to do a collection in the office, with everyone donating whatever they have from their own accounts? No. They can (and do) create items from thin air whenever necessary. That's how hireling mail works, and crown store items and it's how this would work too.

    The only pain or cost for ZOS would be some intern having to run the necessary searches to work out who gets what and set up the mailing.

    You aren't entitled to anything just because ZoS decides to change how an item functions and you don't like it. Part of the game is finding/crafting new gear in replacement.

    They aren't taking anything away, they're changing how it works. You aren't entitled to anything in return... to think you are is absurd.

    yeah...just for the bragging rights I deconstructed 3 months ago over 600 gold medium armors...not counting weapons and they were all my pvp tries that failed miserably and combos for the sake of testing pvp and pve stuff that also got nerfed and was sitting on my mules...how much I spent on them? plently? but I can make that over the course of an year anyway...so yeah get over it stuff can change so either get everything and hoard it or become uber rich in game so u can afford the new bling bling stuff.

    I know it's a little mean, but when I read posts like OPs and the sheer amount of tears from sorcs that crutched on all the BS that came from pets in PvP, it just makes the seem patch notes seem fine...

    side note: i personally thought they would buff tormentor.. to give the heal or damage choice...

    Is this your first MMO? Back in my day, we had to grind out new gear every time a game updated, because the level cap (and, thus, gear level cap) changed. Every. Single. Patch.

    Meanwhile, in ESO, gear I acquired years ago remains useful. Sure, sets are tweaked over time, but the gear level cap stays the same. Start crying if they increase the gear cap past CP 160. In the meantime, adapt along with the rest of us.

    *** happens. I bought Detroit whatever it's called on psn 2 weeks ago when it was on sale, 2 weeks later it is now free as a psn+ game. I was pissed, but if that's all I have to bemoan in life, I'm doing good.

    You chose to put the time into obtaining your current gear, it was in no way mandatory.

    There will likely be reduced cost for respecs once patch goes live.

    Fury and 7th have been close to the best sets in the game for over a year... i think you had more than enough time to get value out of those sets.
