The main change I noticed was adding the public dungeon bosses in specific areas, rest seem mostly the same.

A few from yesterday were... (I haven't logged-in yet today)

-Harvest [either 8 or 10, I can't remember] resources. Super simple.
-Dig up 2 Antiquities or Treasure Chests -- not difficult, and could also apply to the event daily quest.
-Kill 10 Air Atronachs -- simple. These various Atronach tasks were common before the patch, and come up often enough that it's easy to become familiar with their spawn-points.
-Kill 3 PD bosses in Auridon.

None of that is any more intensive than prior to this week's patch.

Both yesterday and today now require the purchase of newer chapters to complete. That was part of my point, so thank you for listing part of what the dailies were for today and yesterday.

They've included DLC since the start. But there's also generally always a way to complete 3 endeavors without doing a DLC endeavor.

You're over-reacting.
We have an event currently going in which doing Master Writs grants event reward coffers.
Hence, there's no reason to expect that this is suddenly a permanent change from regular writ to Master Writ.

There have been days before when it specified a master writ, not a normal one. There's also been days when one of the endeavours was to craft an item from a specific set, although I can't remember if any of them were DLC or chapter sets.

The only new thing I've noticed is that it specifies a map for the public dungeon bosses whereas before endeavours like that would allow you to go anywhere. I'm not sure why they did that, although I'd guess it's either to get people doing endeavours into the same area so they can play together or to encourage people to move around instead of always going to the same spots. I've noticed before with the world boss ones you tend to get a few low CP players, or even low level characters hanging around harder bosses hoping enough people will show up that they can complete it and then large groups of high CP players camping the easy bosses close to cities because they just want to do whatever is quickest and then move on.

I did also notice that it wasn't as quick and easy for me to do 3 endeavours yesterday as it often is, but then I was only online for a short time (I basically did the event daily quest, via some master writs, did 3 endeavours and logged off) and there have been days before when I've only done 2/3 because I didn't have time or didn't feel like doing any of the others. So I think it's too soon to say if this is an actual change or just a couple of days of less convenient endeavours.

But honestly it wouldn't surprise me if ZOS have noticed that a significant number of players are willing to go out of their way to do endeavours (remember when one of them was to kill some obscure form of atronach and players managed to find a boss in Murkmire which spawned them as totems and then tons of people were camping that one boss?) and are looking at how they can use that to encourage players into some of the less busy parts of the game.

Todays Endeavours:
3 seals each

Pick 5 locks
Destroy 10 Dwarven Automata
Cut 8 logs of wood
Consume 3 drinks
Complete 2 consumables master writs

May 2021. This is not a new endeavor. There might be a new bug, but the endeavor itself is not new. It's actually easier today (in theory, due to bug) than in May endeavor too, since it needs 1 instead of 2.

In addition, I did an alchemy master writ today, but it did not count toward the daily endeavor for some reason. It says right in the description that making potions counts....but it didn't for me today.

Sorry, but that's still not true. You can still complete 3 endeavors by just having base game.

Yesterday:
- Defeat 1 Patrolling Horror in the Imperial City Districts - free DLC, so that's the first one that day you can do with base game,
- Destroy 10 Air Atronachs - one of the places they can be found is Craglorn, so that makes it the second task from the base game, fairly easy, just requires some patience on the respawns,
- Excavate 2 Antiquities - requires DLC, but it's not something that happened only after this recent maintenance, although you don't have to buy it if you have ESO+,
- Harvest 10 Resources from the World - third one you can do with base game, super easy,
- Kill 3 Public Dungeon Bosses in Auridon - fourth one you can do with base game, also quite easy, especially since there will be other people trying to do the same thing in the dungeon.
So that's 4 to 1 in favor of base game yesterday. Let's see if today's different.

Today:
- Complete 1 Consumables Master Writ - first one you can do with base game, if you do normal writs on regular basis you should be swimming in master writ vouchers by now, if not you can buy them relatively cheap from guild store and even couple it with the daily event quest (spend 5000 gold in guild vendor), plus it's an event task so you get a parcel as a bonus,
- Complete 1 Dungeon - second one from base game, FG1 takes 10 minutes,
- Kill 10 Bestial Daedra - third one from base game, plenty of Daedra around so that's pretty easy, you can couple it with the dungeon one if you pick the right dungeon,
- Kill 3 Public Dungeon Bosses in Blackwood - DLC, again, you don't have to buy it if you have ESO+,
- Pickpocket 10 Items - fourth one from base game, you don't need Thieves Guild to pickpocket and you can do it from level 1 so I'd also say it's easy.
And again we have 4 to 1 in favor of the base game, so you have some wiggle room if you find the master writ task unacceptable.

So what's the problem here exactly?

I just do what gets done in my normal gameplay, still have plenty unused, not going out my way/comfort zone to do all 3 dailies if it's something I wouldn't normally do, or want to do.

I don't like the specific public dungeons ones. If you have the ability to play off hours, its simple, but if you have to play during the busy times, its annoying. I'd be fine if it asked for a public dungeon in a certain alliance.

Honestly I gave up on daily endeavors months ago when I realized the effort was not worth the measly 10 endeavors per they were throwing to us. It also got to a point where I felt like I wasnt logging in to play for myself. Instead they were dictating my play time. Rather than keep doing that I just work at the 225/250 endeavors weekly and not worry about it any further. I know Im probably missing out on another 200ish endeavors a week in not doing so. But I still occasionally get them done without trying and I still have 16k endeavors racked up. If theres something I want in the crown store I can definitely afford it at this point and so everything on top of that is just flush.
