I would like to start a petition, as it were, to reintroduce the legendary blade Trueflame back into Elder Scrolls Online.
I played in all of the closed betas, and the open betas, and subbed at launch, and I remember a time when fishing could reward you with a legendary sword called Trueflame. Those of you who are not familiar with the lore, Trueflame was the blade of the Nerevarine, used in The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. You can read more about it in this
wiki article.
However, back at the launch of Elder Scrolls Online, you could find this reward from fishing, though it was EXTREMELY rare, and I only knew of one person who had it, and I did not know them myself, I only heard about them and saw images. Recently, in a gaming Discord, I was reminded of Trueflame by another member,
and the idea occurred to me that now is the perfect time to bring this Legendary Sword back into the game!
Using the Antiquities System, you could set this as Mythic Item, with five or six leads to find all over Tamriel, starting in Vvardenfell. The following are just suggestions on where to find the leads, you'll note that I've kept them all in and around Morrowind, Skyrim, and Black Marsh.
Blade - Vvardenfell World Bosses
Hilt - Stonefalls Public Dungeon Bosses
Handle - Eastmarch Delve Monsters
Jewel in the Hilt - Deshaan, inside a bag in someone's house
Pommel - Shadowfen Fishing Nodes
This would be a fun item to look for using the Antiquities system, and it would give us a mythic one handed weapon that was not only powerful, but unique as well.
Set bonuses could be something like...
(1 Item) Increases Flame Enchantment Damage by #%.
(1 Item) Light and Heavy Attacks do an extra #### Flame Damage.
(1 Item) #% Chance to cause Burning status effect.
And then, once Trueflame is added, we can talk about Hopesfire, and then we'll have some real fun!
Thank you for your time, and reading!
