Interesting. It stands to reason the more players that test the content the more actual data and valid information they will receive. I guess this is a flaw of a B2P system vs P2P like a pure subscription model.
Honestly, does it matter for the last PTS drop? The best chance for PTS feedback to make it into launch is in the first week of PTS. It takes them a couple weeks to sift through stuff, decide what to do, do it, and then get it into a build. By the time we get to the last week, comments from PTS can't possibly make it in for release.

Not to mention varied information since different players are interesting in testing different aspects of the game...

There's still 3 weeks of no change which is weird.

Patch notes didn't say you wouldn't be able to use the PTS; just that you wouldn't have free access to High Isle content unless you'd bought it. Since High Isle has been on PTS, until now, it's been available free to everyone.

For example, the PTS is currently EU copies, so existing EU live character copies will not have High Isle access on PTS. But any template characters created will.
Thank you, ZOS, for the clarification.

Thank you, ZOS, for the clarification.
So once they turn of template characters and switch to live copies, someone who hasn't bought High Isle won't have access to it on PTS?
i.e. 8.0.0 and 8.0.1 had template characters -> High Isle active
8.0.2 till 8.0.4 -> No High Isle unless you bought it
Something like this?
Also where was this clarified? I don't see any edits on the Patch Notes for 8.0.4
