    Wait, what again? Wasn't it catastrophic last time, the time before that, last year, the year before and so on?

    No there was that one patch back in 2017 where all was well.

    Catastrophic? No. But the 'meh' I utter with a grimace after reading the Patch Notes does get more and more dejected each time. So 'mehhh'.

    Reminds me of the CM on the WoW forums back in the day, who kept (and posted after every patch) a running list of all the things that had "killed" WoW according to the Chicken Little crowd. :D

    Then have to log on each character to get the processes of the changes done --- like: Undaunted Keys moved to currency, Skill Lines, Fragments, etc...

    So won't really see how it all works fro a bit.

    I do hope those who say they are quitting over this update will tell us how many times previously they've told us they were quitting over an update.

    My character who uses Silver Shards is celebrating, I haven't had time to check out the other 35 characters yet. I doubt I'll notice most of the changes, but I'm all for keeping the game alive by adjusting things and I'd hate to be stuck with the exact same abilities I had 5 years ago. Change is good!

    Not sure which build you had. Mine lost around 8k... so i rebuilt into a new one. Funny so far, despite some sustain issues and selfhealing. ST is powerful now, AOE is meh, so i think it´s a matter of taste. Before patch i was awesome as AOEr, now i will be as STer.

    No change will make me quit the game :) (there's a lot of things to do anyway).....i've always adapted to changes and i will, this time too......but this doesn't mean i'm happy with some "details" (power surge change on last week? sloppy and dishonest move imho) but as usual, everything will change again in 3/6/X months (as always have been, since they don't seems to have a real clue ["standardization anyone?" laughters heard on background])....so...the show goes on.

    This is the life cycle of ESO patches since Beta. Many players cry out and curse ZOS over and over again after each and every patch and updates, but all continue playing the game and simmer down sooner or later. Many others rage-quit, but return sooner or later.

    Hope was shattered many, many moons ago. Just play the game and enjoy it for what it is and whatever it will be, before it implodes in itself. After a few years now, I still get a kick the most out of watching my female toons' tush wriggling about while frolicking around Tamriel. It's properly the few things still keeping me with the game all these years. Ha ha

    Before leveling up Entropy and Unstable for my petsorc and flurry and soul trap for my stamcro, I've lost about 10k. Meaning once new rotations are down and I have them fully levelled, the impact for my DPS should be fairly minimal. Plus my stamcro's sustain is sooooo much better with the new rotation.

    Whoops sorry, forgot to doomsay. I mean my DPS dropped by 99% and all classes except the ones I don't play are dead.

    E: stamcro has new record parse. RIP the game, clearly nerfed to death

    It's been harder for me lately, but I agree that the changes in the end are ultimately good. I sometimes doubt it, and right now I'm not playing at all due to the performance on console, with no fix for that in sight. But, for the most part I have liked where the game has been going ever since they started all these big changes, and I think people should give it time. We won't know the results until everything has been reworked and is on the table.

    I had hope for this update. However now my hope is long gone. I got an unexpected and unwanted feature of "Error 200". Looks like the maintenance and the new update broke my game, yay. Done everything I can to fix it myself, nothing has worked so submitted a ticket. Fun Monday....
