…could this be a chance for some eyes on the Class Set visuals? In a previous post that hasn’t been answered I put together a full list of different behaviors that I’ve noticed with class sets and the auras that they put on your character. Here’s the post with a full breakdown of my observations, which are still relevant as of this PTS patch. I’d love to finally get some answers here!
https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/664317/class-auras-working-as-intended-or-bugged#latestFor a recap:
- Class Set auras do not get applied when you look on the character select screen if they are derived from gear, but do appear with outfit style pages.
- Hiding a Class Set-styled helmet will remove the aura if it brings total cosmetic pages down below 5
- Equipped Class Set weapons add to the aura total, but Class Set weapon styles do not.
Updated Questions:
- Is it intended for Class Set-styled weapons to not add to the aura?
- Would it ever be considered to have a Class Set-styled helmet count for the aura total with Hide Helmet from the Appearance menu?
- Will we ever get some way to use the aura of the other set for our class (EX, Aetheric Lancer instead of Wrathsun) without having to equip the gear set?
And as an aside, overall I’ve really been enjoying the work being put in to rework and revitalize pure classes, and classes as a whole. DK has been a blast, and I’m looking forward to testing out Werewolf and Class Master. Thank you for listening to our feedback and putting in the work!
Still waiting for answers about class set aura behavior, and also hoping that one day hair dyeing will be an option. We know it's canon thanks to a book in the Manor of Masques! (House of Reveries: The Troupe)
