tahol10069✭✭✭✭You missed one option: "Nothing". I didn't care about the first round, I don't care about this round either. It has zero effect in my gameplay and I couldn't care less. Others cry enough for my behalf.
I don't have to "man it up" because there is nothing to man up in all this. It is just a game, not my work or my livelyhood.
I hate these biased polls.4 -
Bekkael✭✭✭✭✭What I do depends on how it feels to fight on my main character if all the changes go live. If it sucks and I hate it, I'll likely walk away for good. After hitting max level and finishing all the story quests on a couple characters, I'm not sure what there really is for me to stick around for anyway. Without some form of progress for me to chase, I don't think doing nothing but dailies sounds like much fun.~~ Lady Gamer ~~ ♥ ~~ Xbox NA ~~0 -

This is just ZOS further screwing over the majority while trying to nerf the 1% which it won't do. making it even harder for the majority to complete vet content is a stupid vision for the game
Its also funny how this is the exact opposite effect in PvP. The people that have really put in the time to learn PvP get hit the hardest as the ceiling comes down.0 -

I was looking forward to ashes of creation, but their art direction looks too much like an asian mmo- teddy bear mounts?

Vanos444✭✭✭✭✭Play WoW or some other MMO RPGLol! NERF is balance for them, and it will continue to be worse.....
Every patch as nerfed this or that that leads to performance issues and unsatisfactory gameplay.

Agreed. Well, tbh I feel like the lack of competition is the main reason why ESO is doing well these days. Even if players are disappointed, chances are they will still stay because they have nowhere else to go (especially if they don't like Asian mmos).Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason

Recent✭✭✭✭✭My partner and I started searching for another game....he might go back to SWTOR. I don't play sci-fi so I'll be looking for a fantasy game which is sad because we enjoy playing games together but his dk got nerfed hard and he had just got it right. He was really enjoying it and he said he's absolutely sick of the constant changes. I agree with him.
I was getting very excited about the new housing. The housing is improving steadily but the combat nerfs are beyond brutal and no, they are not like every other nerf I've lived through.
I loathe this patch and i'm sticking to my opinion.Edited by Recent on September 18, 2019 7:46AM4 -
H3rBie✭✭✭adjusting and continue as always, it's not really dramatic imho, only thing is that people need to play and learn mechanics again (probably the real problem)
back in time, when 30k (on 3m dummy) was op dps, noone complained that they need 50k to do content. we are just spoiled with beeing able to skip mechanics because of op dps.2 -
Adapt my build, and go on. I don't play the hardest content and almost no PvP, so it's not really an issue. Building my character is what I love in ESO, it's not a big deal to change some abilities and gear to be more efficient.1

✭✭✭Quit the gameI'm pretty much done with this game now. I log in a couple of times a week to play with friends, but have pretty much moved back to Skyrim (playing & modding it). Between the endless nerfs, horrible people and the growing focus on crown shop and the silly crates, I've had it. Stuff is released without proper testing and they ASK MONEY for this stuff knowing it's broken. I can mod better stuff for free (and it's fully tested BEFORE release). My mods might be free, but I still have pride enough to make sure I release them as best I can make them, with a minimum of bugs.
I'm having a blast playing my vampire as he should be, and dressing him in stuff I made! I think ESO will likely be my last MMO - back to single player/co-op with mates for me.RIP Atherton, my beautiful little gentle friend. I will miss you forever. Without you I am a hollow shell.6 -

✭✭✭✭✭Why is every one assuming the changes on pts go life like they are right now?
Because whatever changes that appear during the first phase of PTS are for the most part set in stone, with maybe very minute adjustments."If a person is truly desirous of something, perhaps being set on fire does not seem so bad."8 -
Eldartar✭✭✭✭Man it upI will adapt & overcome as I have since launch. But people, this is the first week of the PTS and you're all spitting your dummies (Soothers) out, get a grip ffs, things will change as they always do. personally I like what they are doing, like the path they are taking and I for one will continue to walk with them.0 -

✭Why is every one assuming the changes on pts go life like they are right now?
Because for the last four straight patches they always have except for last if you remember right they put in those last few Minor Details right at the end that everybody was like wow where did those come from that's going to *** us in the ass why stick around for more of it hell they've shown over and over that PLAYERS DONT MATTER ONCE HERE ONLY GETTING NEW PLAYERS HOOKED TO TRY THE GAME MATTERS ANYMORE MORE PLAYERS MORE MONEY *** THAT THE GAMES *** *** THAT WHEN PLAYERS TRY TO TRAVEL TO THEIR PLAYER HOME THEY PAID 140$ FOR THEY GET KICKED TO LOGIN AND HAVE TO RE START GAMEEdited by Nordic__Knights on September 18, 2019 9:46AM4 -

From what I read, DoT is being slashed about 33% across the board. Any additional DD reduction could easily reach a total DPS reduction of 50%, depending on what your current build is. Especially if you had been stacking DoTs before using DD.

Keledus✭✭✭They dropped a bombshell of changes on the community which is their biggest mistake.
Should've done smaller patches and they should definetly give people a way to respec for free.
quite frankly enough people have asked for more class identity and a more difficult experience.
and yet they still complain when they're atleast trying they can't fix class identity in 1 patch that's just impossible.
Still most of it is overreacting and people losing their minds because their numbers are lower.
The game is more than just your dps numbers this isn't a reason to ''quit'' imo life goes on. next patch something else happens and everyone that cares so much about their dps numbers loses their minds again.

Key word opinion.
vMA DW builds will suffer the most but still only like 20-30% maximum.1 -

✭Remember when 30k dps was top notch?
The main reason is light attack damage buff from previous patches (+empower). If they cut the damage from LA, DPS would drop but people wouldnt miss that too much.Gepe, Dunmer MagSorc Pact Grand Overlord | Gaepe, Bosmer MagSorc Dominion General

✭✭Stop doing harder content completelyRemember when 30k dps was top notch?
The main reason is light attack damage buff from previous patches (+empower). If they cut the damage from LA, DPS would drop but people wouldnt miss that too much.
If you still do damage on normal target dummies without relequen you would get around 40k dps on the high side, people are getting these higher numbers because of the new target dummy and relequen.
so over all this time damage is only 10k higher so it doesnt need a 50% nerf2 -

Muzzick✭✭✭✭Quit the gameAdapting on multiple characters every few months is very time consuming. As an average player finally spending more time on end game PVE content this is just very disappointing. I plan to complete all my quests I haven't done, cancel my sub then take a break for a year. After that i'll rejoin once I see two patches in a row without ridiculous heavy handed changes.4
