    So basically a diversion to keep our minds off bad performance? Going to be pretty annoying to spend 10 minutes on a minigame and get kicked to desktop / bluescreen right before you finish. And that's a shame that people with disabilities or poor hand eye coordination / reflexes will be locked out of part of the game.

    And that's a lot of hoops to jump through for a Rubedo leather arm cops! Is that Radiant Apex mount you are showing there going to be a possible reward?

    I am a little upset.

    Because these look very beautiful but then I remember the horrendeous lag and disconnects, being unable to use skills in trials so it all stays in my dreams...

    Antiquities looks like a thing they'd put in a browser game. Apart from the pointless "Walk to a random location to dig up the 2nd part of the minigame" you could literally do this in a companion app for ESO.

    Seems like a gigantic time waster for people who are into playing Battleships or Candy Crush.

    Just watched your video on youtube I do appreciate the content, but I'm not impressed with the vampire lord. It looks half a** done and on top of that seeing as performance is at an all time low. It adds nothing to the game if the simple functions of being able to cast abilities or just play in general doesn't work.

    It all looks cool, except antiquities mini games. I think that looks a little cheap, like a mobile game.

    Vampire looks really cool and actually more of a specialised build choice.
    Are we losing the recovery passive though? I have vamp on a lot of characters just for this passive.
    That said I don;t have a problem with it, I like that it feels more like a choice than a must have.

    Does this mean I can also stay at stage 1 and use mist form all i like? lol...

    Also FIX THE GAME!!! :lol: I want to preorder this, but I won't until I feel confident I can play it.

    Antiquities is... uhh... well, looks underwhelming. Would rather mythic items have been cool quest related drops around the world or something.

    Antiquities reminds me of the UK tv show 'Blockbusters'.
    So they raised the floor and lowered the ceiling. Except the ceiling has spikes in it now and the floor is also lava.

    Antiquities: the Mythic Items look nice and it's also great that there's quite a variety of rewards for all kinds of players, but that interface for the minigames? Rly? I hope they can improve on that.

    I was also hoping the excavation part wouldn't be a puzzle/minigame but more like the TG Heists or DB Sacraments. Oh well

    Vampirism: looks cool af :p And now I regret switching my main to Stamina :'(

    Like you said in the video: it's really great tho that ZOS not only improved the existing skills and morphs but also worked in the old Ultimate in one of the new one's morphs so the skill tree feels familiar. And of the new skills, the HP drain toggle and stun both are welcome additions.

    However...

    "Brain Drain"? Rly? >_>

    You don't remember that time when Indiana Jones played minesweeper to find the lost ark?!

    Great work on the content, as always Dottz 👍

    It all looks pretty good (although the vampire regular skill cost increase is a bit worrying)

    Antiquities is a nice addition, change of pace and great for players not into group content!

    no looks like its level 1 but your costs of all skills could be very high

    Thanks! And yeah that was an immediate concern i had too - increasing the cost of your regular skills, depending on what values they finalize, has the potential to be a massive drawback unless youre doing a VAMPIRE specific build.

    scribe minigame is fine, but the digging minigame? that's .... that's really lame. how about an entrance to a small cave/dungeon like a heist or sacrament?

    Not yet. Certain content creators debuted previews today. The chapter is probably two weeks away from hitting the PTS.

    So vampires will get an incentive to try and play at lower health and at the same time can’t be healed by others?

    This doesn’t look like it was thought through. As mag it’s already hard to heal yourself in pvp because healing you’re intending for yourself goes on the new player who isn’t healing themselves.

    Has anyone tested whether smart heals will all go on a low health vampire despite having no effect? Mist can already act like that, one player will be able to troll and kill everyone around them in pvp.
    Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
    Havoc Warhammer - Alair
    LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
    PRX and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
    Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten
