Anticipation & Wishlist: ESO 10th Anniversary

Paulytnz · May 2022

A cape to celebrate the 10th year mark of your char.

Oh wait, that's that other game that does that......

Separate Balance for PvE and PvP.

@Mr_Stach how would that work beyond additions to Battle Spirit? Would all abilities have a PvP version? Or perhaps being limited to a smaller number of PvP abilities based on the general concept of PvP ones?

Bring back A LOT of old content - special promo stuff, old Crown Store items, collectors edition, etc - so that new players can enjoy it too

Yes, please. Stuff the crown store with EVERYTHING, to give everyone a one-time chance to buy what they missed (and please run a crown sale at the same time, or run a discount on all items in the crown store). All the houses, the mounts, the wardrobe items, furniture, emotes, etc. EVERYTHING.

Also for the anniversary month (April, 2024 I believe):

Deliver an absolutely mind-blowing login rewards month with all sorts of special goodies - something great on every day. As already suggested, some special anniversary keepsakes would be nice.

Reward boxes for doing anything in game: quests, dungeons, writs, antiquities, killing a mud crab, whatever. If there's a reward or something to loot, add an anniversary box.

The 10th anniversary is ZOS's chance to thank players for supporting this fabulous game! (do the crown store thing right and ZOS should have a great anniversary month, too)

@AzuraFan - what kinds of goodies? Or another way, what would be the minimum? Is it 30 days of things like 100,000 gold, emotes, mounts, pets, 50,000 alliance points, costumes, etc? No small sums, no experience scrolls, etc.?

More gold sinks something to actually spend some of are gold on.

More content for the non player guilds eg: fighters/mages/Thieves/Dark Brotherhood probably more, these are suppose to be significant organisations be nice if they came up again in a meaningful way in the newer zones.

A new class and some more character slots would be nice.

Ability to use multiple companions at once, since they are going to keep adding them, be nice to use more of them at once even if its only in instanced content like dungeons/arenas etc..

A new crafting skill line would be interesting.

More bank space tied to ESO plus instead of double maybe triple bank space.

Maybe even an increase in the furniture slot caps for houses if the servers can handle it.

A way to harvest all the same surveys for each location without needing to ride back and forth.

Some form of brand new content for overland zones going forward not just a re skin of Dolmens but something new in addition to that.

An overall of the mount training system scrap the 6 months to level a mounts riding skills, let us pay gold to max it out in the same way bank and inventory space is handled.

This I agree with. Zos should of done this from the start.

Celephantsylvius_Bornasfinmo · June 2022

Modify inventory restrictions:

Current state: 12 euros to furnish a house (in a satisfactory manner)

I don't think I've seen any other games where you pay 'the service' of housing outside of cosmetic purchases.

Don't follow the same path of WoW and less retrospection on Farmville and it's popularity/system.

To quote: 'Holy crap, farmville has power leveling services!' (uh hmm)

WhiteCoatSyndrome · June 2022

I want to see a Dwemer Airship along the lines of the mount - you dig up Antiquity leads to assemble it. In game terms it would probably end up being a house, but if they make Masser a bonus base game zone and it’s instead a portal to get there, that would be fine too.

We already have some in the form of Mist Form, reducing damage from players, they would just need to tweak numbers in PvP.

I think Guild Wars 2 has a good system for this as well:

"Rise!": Reduced maximum number of targets struck from 5 to 2 in WvW only.
Death Nova: Reduced power coefficient from 0.75 to 0.6 in WvW only.

I would love to see base game zones get some love, like graphical updates. Also as others have said, some kind of cool furnishing to commemorate the occasion.

This has been a longstanding request for years. Would be great to see. And it would fit with other suggestions to have phased updates to show the effects of our actions.

TX12001rwb17_ESO · June 2022

A 10 year anniversary event where all crown crates can be purchased at the Impresario for 1 crate of your choice per ticket

bruta · June 2022

forced open world pvp in all areas

TheImperfect · June 2022

An extremely large and fancy ten story/level home with a floor themed to each playable race in ESO. It can have a large circular garden broken into segments around it in various themes or gardens on each level. Instead of seven wonders of the world it would be the ten amazingnesses of Nirn.
Alternatively just some really fancy 10 level home with no specific styling that is just really gorgeous and with scenic views.

Would not sniff at 10 million gold (I'm guessing for economic reasons this might not be do-able).

A new sexy mount, something we have never seen before, that you can change so it has 10 differen't color options or cycles through colors.

Ability to dye mount armor.

A new race added to the entire Elder Scrolls Universe.

More bank space and character slots.

Kesstryl · June 2022

Bring back the Ravenwatch!

Sjestenka · June 2022

Ooh, digital graphic novel centered around Three Banners War! And Planemeld! And Queen Ayrenn because she wouldn't need a holywood star for voice acting and therefore totally doable! And with Flaccus Terentius cameo!

Tommy_The_Gun · June 2022

Some kind of "loyalty reward" 2.0 for players who were active for 10 years. Would be nice. Not just for ESO+ subscribers, but for all "old" accounts.

Idk. What that could be though. I guess if it was just one thing (a house / mount / emote / personality) then it could be um... I guess "too little" for a 10 years presence in a ESO world. Especially since we got huge rewards for various events with "community milestones" (like Grand Psijic Villa or Antiquarian's Alpine Gallery) or an entire DLC - Murkmire as a login reward.

TheImperfect · June 2022

Posting on behalf of my Husband for his request:

He gets fed up with people dodge rolling to get treasure chests so he thinks it would be funny to have a memento that places a treasure chest nearby that when lockpicked pops out a jester that has its tongue out and thumb on nose saying 'nah nah nah na na'. Like a fake but useable treasure chest.

Make it a Mimic to really make it interesting

Jaimeh · June 2022

I would like a special item that commemorates the anniversary, besides the traditional cake, like an ouroboros furnishing for example or a unique pet. Also, a nod to the original main quest--not sure how they would implement this in whatever the story would be for that year, but it would be a nice touch. Finally, a new cinematic (like the original cinematic trailers) that shows all the things the Vestige has done so far (without it being just a copy/paste of the trailers we've had for the chapters so far, but instead a short film with epic music to show the Vestige's story so far).

@tinythinker Yeah, 30 days of wonderful rewards. Something fantastic on each day. No poisons, no experience or research scrolls, no tri-potions.

For example, mounts, an anniversary house, an anniversary costume, 1,000,000 gold, 10 anniversary crown crates, etc. It's only one month, and it's the only 10th anniversary ESO will ever have, so make it a blowout rewards month.

Mr_Stach · June 2022

Day 30 a Trials set. No more "playing the game" nonsense.

SammyKhajit · June 2022

Nothing locked behind gems or crates.

Get rid of the gambling system.

New class.

Arox the Mutilator as companion.

Story mode for dungeons.

More quests with different outcomes and how NPCs treat you based on your decisions. Being able to replay them on the same character to see the variations.

WiseSky · June 2022

Ability to put Monsters into Housing that agro intruders

A monster Beastry

Super Heavy Snow and Rain

And ofc

FIX THE LEFT BACK LEG FROM TWITCHING ON HORSES AND RAMS WHEN WALKING SLOWLY !!!

Vaoh · June 2022

The Devs have improved their skills at zone design quite a bit over the years this game has been out. Rework the base game zones with new terrain and architecture, and give each class a new skill line imo. Potentially even a minor graphics upgrade if something like that is possible.

Building on ESO’s foundation makes the whole game better and seems fitting for a 10th anniversary. Sort of a “we’re committed to many more years of ESO” idea.

FFXIV added this and called it New Game +.

It's almost certain ZOS are already planning the 10th anniversary year (2024) for ESO. Whether anything written here will have an effect is unknown, but they do read and pick up on things.

Either way, whether it is a new or redesigned game system, a location, an NPC, a story plot, an in-game item, a musical request, a physical item in the Bethesda store, a gathering in real life, etc. -- is there anything you would add to the 10th anniversary wish list?

Thanks for sharing

If we're lucky they will make ESO free to play the whole year!!! =p

I can see a month perhaps. But either way is that just for people trying the game or do subs also get the free time?

K9002 · June 2022

Rebuild Bleakrock Isle. There are peace talks taking place but the Covenant is still hard at work, trying to raze it to the ground. It's also the only place in the whole game that turns worse after the Vestige passes through.

Suedyin_Loreseeker · June 2022

Playable bard class maybe? (like in Everquest, with playing multiple songs in sequence for different effects).

"Tidy up" some starting zones- for example, return Bleackrock Village to ordinary citizens once the "invasion" quest line has been completed.

I have never liked the way that ZOS uses the word "Epic": In Everquest, an epic was a single class-specific item that was the culmination of a huge series of quests. While stage-specific rewards were useful, the final form felt like a real accomplishment, the pinnacle of a character's journey.
So, a true epic quest for each class (or subclass?) might be nice. Something that sits apart from the dull grind and RL-reflex test the rest of the game has become.

The return of Cadwell has been mentioned; the return of Abnur Tharn would be cool too!

haha

It has been a while since I enjoyed all of a new chapter... I thought the worldbuilding of Elsweyr exceptional.
Antiquities are fun, and companions are useful, but- with the exception of Fargrave- I was underwhelmed by the worldbuilding.
High Isle has nothing to excite my heart, especially not a time-sink addiction-prone card game.

Sure, the game needs to get the bugs fixed. But after that...
The world of Nirn needs something to change the paradigm and open our eyes.
Not "more of the same" grinds and real-life reflex tests.
