    Would love to have new solo arena, even small-ish. Something like BRP but dragon-themed and solo would be superb. But alas.

    Take a break from ESO, Developers have no clue what they are doing.

    Combat was much better with Wrobel, new team all messed up with things.

    I stopped playing ESO since a month ago, may be some day it will get better and i will return.

    Agree,

    A new Arena would be very welcomed, rather than a simple zone (as we werent have enough of those).

    "Increased the base cost" and "reduced" only 2 words in Zos devs vocabulary

    Well Trials and arena won't be doable anyways after the 50% nerfs to all damage, might as well just play overland content

    I hope this isn't the new norm for Q4 updates.

    I'm guessing it isn't easy to cater to both "fix performance" and "new content" crowds. Both entitled, both impatient, both ignorant of how software development works.

    The dragonguard set looks so good I'll get the DLC and build the base just for the ability to craft that set alone. :o

    This is done by different development teams.

    Then you fall on the ignorant group. Don't you think they need funds for two full teams? Or that they don't work content against performance to make sure everything is complying to standards?

    It's never that simple, or it would be fixed and all already. Or do you think ZOS is oblivious to the faults in their own game? The constant complaining here? No... They know. If they haven't fixed it's because they can't.they know they lose money on long run if they don't.

    We asked for performance improvements over content. They can't stop all new content ('cause marketing), but this is perhaps one of the trade-offs they made, putting animation and art crews on fixing and streamlining assets instead of new ones, and programmers on the Group Finder.

    We need the performance updates badly.

    they're separate teams creating content and fixing performance.

    They hire their developers on a full-time basis.

    Unless they are borrowing programmers from the dungeon team to work on performance, funding doesn't have any bearing on how they split up the work.

    This definitely feels like the weakest dlc in terms of content
    unique thing it brings: dragons -> taken from elsweyr
    no instanced pve content
    no zone furnishing plans -> just taken from elsweyr

    all it adds that dungeon dlcs don't, is that new material from dragons, or something
    oh, and quests

    The sad part is that we'll have to wait up to middle of the next year to get some new arena/trial.

    I'm sure the amount of time used for the content had to yield to the performance changes, group finder rewrites and bug fixes. If it actually succeeds in what it set out to do ill take a questing zone. After all my hands will be full with the next 2 months of rebuilding my characters again till the next pts... lol

    The Arena/Trial is slogging through content with all these ridiculous nerfs, change my mind.
