Well, the Loremaster quit around the time the new combat team took over, and they installed a new Loremaster who said Hi and was never heard from again. Formulate your own conclusions, but it's not entirely unlike when a new President takes over, he flushes the old Cabinet and installs his own team of yes-persons.

I would assume since most of the changes to Bosmer were justified as "we're doing this because its more lore-friendly!" that the combat team or combat team lead would, at the very least, be bothered to research what the lore actually is.

If a bunch of us scrubs can find it on the internet with a 2 minute google search, and its literally the racial description in the game they're working on, I would think the official TESO team would be able to find this information with ease. Especially since its supposed to be the entire race's flaunted combat niche.

The lore, and clearly the Bow skill-line imo, at this point is considered nothing more than irrelevant RP fluff to be ignored in favor of other races, endgame, and PvP. The fact that Hunter's Eye Detection is an exclusively PvP skill pretty unarguably reflects that, I think.

While Bosmer racials and bow skills are technically separate, the fact both seem to be getting nerfed into the ground (and Nightblades, which I assume a lot of bosmer are because it makes us more effective stealthers) really just seems to drive home more and more which race they don't care a lick about.

As an old friend once told me in school (but is still applicable here), "Teachers don't pick favorites; they pick least favorites"
