Things in ESO History that you miss.

ArchMikem · December 2019

Just thought of this while casting a piddly Annulment.

I miss when Sorcs could cast a 20k Ward that had a 30 second duration.

Taleof2Cities · December 2019

As much as OneTamriel revolutionized the game, I do miss leveled zones.

Such as taking my new level 6 character with 2 fully crafted 5-pc set gear into the Alik’r and Bangkorai to collect skyshards.

ZonasArch · December 2019

I miss when the game was severely unbalanced, uneven, exploitable, super bugged ( granted, performance was better and I miss it too).

I also miss the days where I couldn't play with new coming friends without having a new toon. Also miss the days when you couldn't just go anywhere.

But yeah... Let's remember the good old days. So good!

Syrusthevirus187 · December 2019

I miss playing all of my characters in the one campaign with population oceanic time instead of just one third.

D0PAMINE · December 2019

I miss Trueflame.

InaMoonlight · December 2019

Barbaric robes without hipshields :'(

Anhedonie · December 2019

Mostly just the same ***. Like 45 ping, no lag during sieges, when there is 40v40v40 goin on, difficult open world (still remember the crying of nightblades in vr5+ locations).

Ysbriel · December 2019

My Panzerzerstörer build, it was an oblivion damage build made to finish off the heavy armored enemies but ZOS nerfed both oblivion damage, torugs boost to oblivion damage and nightblades.

MaleAmazon · December 2019

Tough overland bosses.

Doshia *shudders*.

Soloing world bosses is a decent replacement, but not great.

I really miss what I had in Skyrim, realising I could not kill a boss and then just running and feeling victorious just because I managed to get out alive. Not stopping until I was through the gates and inside Whiterun.

Nordic__Knights · December 2019

I miss an working game where when you que'd for something you didnt bluescreen or when you traveled somewhere you didnt bluescreen or when an keep got flipped you didn't bluescreen oh hold on i bluescreened

MajBludd · December 2019

Dk wings, being able to leap onto walls, cleanse on nb cloak, wrecking blow, u50, no cp, and vet pvp all being pop locked.

Edit, empower and how it originally worked. Not this crap we have now
Edit**
Mist form where you gained back ress. That was fun, too.

Zones that could kick my ass.

One of my biggest nostalgia indulgences is the Blood Matron's Crypt quest on my first ever character. My GF had played from the beginning, was a vampire when it was still impressive. My little ~level 5 butt was just hilariously dying to everything on the way, following that big cool max VR rank character to the shrine. Had no idea what was going on, and I'm sure that added to the mystique of it all. I just remember the bright red letters of the quest and my GF explaining to me that I can't do it yet, but at least I have it. It was this big cool difficult thing to look forward to. Like a symbolic marker of progression. Everything was so exciting. Reminded me of trying out WoW (never got into it) and getting lost in overpowered zones, trying to avoid enemies to sneakily check out places I wasn't meant to be. Nowadays the level scaling makes things feel more like a flash game, rather than a grand fantasy MMO.

Anyway, the quest is still in my journal as some stupid denial of its lost value. xD

L_Nici · December 2019

Well not so far back like VetRanks and stuff, but I miss the time after Clockwork as every single reward of the worthy dropped a transmutationgeod, which then either blocked your complete inventory or you used them to exploit the transmutation to generate tons of Nirnkrux with it.

Tryxus · December 2019

The stun on Deep Fissure
The Bear being 30% stronger
The old Corrupting Pollen

adirondack · December 2019

Ground oil.
Blinding flashes
50/50 sieges

Bashev · December 2019

Dynamic ulti regen and soft caps.

MaleAmazon · December 2019

Weighted.

I understand why it had to go, but still... if ever there was something I wanted to max out... it would have looked awesome.

TheImperfect · December 2019

Not so much in history but in the world. There is some interaction with the daedric prince's but I miss the mystery of them with the gigantic statues and them appearing to talk to you all mystically. I'd love to see more of it. We do get a bit. I guess I miss the gigantic Azura statue in Skyrim.

Fajin · December 2019

Dungeons being open and not level locked like now. + a more stable dungeon finder.

Like I remember when I got into "hard dungeons" on lvl 10-11. Like BC2. I was in a party with max lvl around 20 and I remember how we got stuck on that boss who summons mobs and disappears in portals! Damn this was hard! Like we had circled through 3 people just to kill it. THe saving grace was cp 200 guy with whom we killed the boss in 2 minutes xD.

Or the time in White-Gold Tower and Imperial dungeon instances! Like I have so much fond memories of them! They were damn hard and literally took an hour+ for me to complete each. Maybe because I was bad but also because I did it below lvl 20 even. (I think I even have the lvl 14 imperium helm in my bank rn, which you can't get nowadays. Or maybe you can but you have to enter a dungeon manually)

I didn't play at the time there were veteran ranks but I sure have seen some hard content. Dungeons were really interesting, and now they are just mindless grind. Even the White-Gold is easy now. I remember how I wiped on the atronach boss, but now wiping on any of the bosses in this dungeon seems awkward.

Gythral · December 2019

I miss servers that worked,
that did not have age long loading screens,
did not spend ages trying for find a new, random, reason to throw a loading screen,
did not seem to forever say 'please check you have a valid internet connection', or Error 305, or you are already logged in,
were not forever 'waiting for previous request'!

but I guess that they are a thing of the past, never to return!

VaranisArano · December 2019

I miss the original Coldharbor tutorial and the way it introduced every player to the Main Quest. I wish ZOS could update the combat portions of it and bring it back, ending in a choice as to whether we want to go to the base game or one of the Chapter zones.

WhiteCoatSyndrome · December 2019

I miss the days when most of the community was friendly.

Also when the Craglorn plot didn't cut out major quests, although the set up then had its own problems.

WildRaptorX · December 2019

I miss being able to hold down the bow’s heavy attack until you released it yourself

SpiderKnight · December 2019

.

max_only · December 2019

I miss Bosmer stealth radius reduction

I miss opposite resource Siphoning Attacks

I miss saptanks

I miss holding my bow back until the right moment

I miss the time before the bear got a blanket 30% damage nerf for no reason.

Karivaa · December 2019

I miss the rapids bug and when you cast it, it effected every member of your group even if they weren’t in Cyrodiil.

I miss being able to ambush and dragon leap into keeps.

I miss the way ESO used to be, before One Tamriel.

dcam86b14_ESO · December 2019

I miss when templars had a class identity

I mean, they technically do. It's Jabs spam.

Toon_Raider · December 2019

We need a zone like the old Craglorn again.

Tommy_The_Gun · December 2019

Pre-wolfhunter werewolves (before they bugged their skills in one of the updates).
