They basically made bosmers pointless. (And I am told argonians.)13 -
landsbergis✭✭While some builds and specs were havily readjusted I personally like the balance we're at right now. You just have to manage your sustain and sometimes make some changes to your build. Want extra max stats? Use bi-stat food. More recovery but less max stats? Drink.
I absolutely love seeing that support sets like sentinel of rkugamz and symphony of blades along with hircine or hollowfang are used by healers and even tanks in pve. And as for pvp, everything is sustainable if you are careful with your stat pools. Sets like grundwulf, engine guardian, seducer and battlefield acrobat are great options to help you out.
And all the content is still beatable. Support roles feel like support and are needed in most content.
That's my personal opinion

Yep. Access to the storyline is nerfed: hidden behind DLC dungeons. Those who run dungeons don't give a guar for the lore and chapter/dlc stories. Those interested in lore and stories - majority of them - are not so good in combat to do dungeons.

✭Honestly, I'm pretty surprised how well my current build is doing when it comes to dps. It is not anything like the elsewhere patch but it is not bad at all and with good sustain.
I do miss having good AOE from lightning flood though and my tank misses the synergies. Really, the only thing the raid groups I have been running with are lacking is good AOE. Probably adds / trash could do with a nerf to compensate for how little AOE we have now and all would be just fine.
For what it is worth, I thought will all the mega nerfs that things would be much worse. I probably should keep my mouth shut. ZOS will find what I am doing and nerf everything I love again.I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.2 -

I trust them and I hope to see the numbers dwindling. ^^

✭✭✭✭✭What is truly unbelievable is the huge power creep we have had for the past few years, virtually unchecked. Getting it dialed back a bit is a good thing. Not that I like the homogenization and would have preferred that Zos managed this game properly from the start. Heck, I am just hoping I will enjoy combat once all this is completed..6 -

Wait.. what?
I do not often say this since can almost always find atleast a theoretical/fun use for most sets, but Rkugamz was nerfed to be pretty much pointless and as a support better to slot dps set instead if not need a pure healing set, fight over faster than what resources Rkugamz would give to that same goal.
A strong IMO type of feeling.
But, does anyone spend 2 gear slots for Rkugamz anymore?7 -

✭and people still do 90k parses
All those nerfs hitted medium players, who can't (don't want?) to adapt and change something.
Also, don't forget ESO is meta balanced game. What is bad today tomorrow will be good and vice versa.0 -

Medium players who can't, and some don't want to adapt to this crazy merry-go-round are the majority. The ones who pay money. Th game should have 2 options - hard for those who want to master the ever changing combat and easy for those who think it is crazy, newplayers and average players.5 -

Werewolf. ZOS made it useless & obsolete in pretty much all type of content (group / solo PvP / PvE) and pretty much only with one morph option. Even pre - Wolfhunter ww felt better than what we have now...Somber97866 wrote: »Am I missing anything?
Also I would add racial rebalance to the mix, as we have ended up with 2 bis races and 2 ultra useless races and the rest that could be described as "meh".

Ysbriel✭✭✭✭✭They have ruined a lot of peoples gameplay and left them hanging with no real option. Apologists will say things like "all mmo games nerf' "power creeping" and such but fail to understand is that what made this game stand out over other games was the play as you want idea that is not longer there for many people and not mention a lot of newer people trying find their way into being effective suddenly meeting that nerf wall.19 -

✭✭✭✭✭I may have unpopular opinion, but TBH I like state of the game we have currently. Much less cheese left. Remember bleeds? Enchants procing of dots? Spin2Win? Dizzy spam everywhere?
Yeah, it's less fun when your crutch has been taken away but in general its healthier.
You can tell me now why I'm clueless scrub...I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.6
