Challenge Difficulty (Season Zero Content)
Challenge Difficulty will be released as part of Season Zero on June 8.
A new opt-in system for you to tailor your difficulty experience is available. From the Character Sheet, you can choose between three additional difficulties which will be applied in overland encounters, story instances, delves, and public dungeons (Dungeons, Trials, Arenas, Infinite Archive, and Night Market are exempt). Once selected, monsters will do increased damage to you and you will do reduced damage to them but you will gain more experience and gold for your effort.
These four difficulties are now available:

• Adventurer
  • This is the current Challenge Difficulty and default within the game. There is no associated effect, and all rewards are as they are now. If you like how Overland currently operates, then this is the difficulty that is right for you.
• Seasoned
  • You will take 100% more damage from monsters and do 50% less damage. You will receive 50% more gold and 20% more experience from monsters.
• Master
  • You will take 300% more damage from monsters and do 65% less damage. You will receive 100% more gold and 75% more experience from monsters.
• Vestige
  • This will be the most difficult option at launch. You will take 600% more damage from monsters and will deal 80% less damage. You will receive 200% more gold and 100% more experience from monsters.

PVP Veterancy (Season Zero Content)
PvP Veterancy will be released as part of Season Zero, on June 8.
The PVP Veterancy System is available for all warriors of Tamriel! This new system rewards players who participate in Cyrodiil, Imperial City, and Battlegrounds with unique cosmetics, titles, consumables, perks for Vengeance and more!

• To access the Veterancy system, simply navigate to your Campaign selection/Scoring UI and you will find a new tab for Veterancy.

• Within the Veterancy UI, you’ll be able to scroll through the entire system to see the rewards you can earn.

• Some rewards are granted automatically like Vengeance Perks, while others must be claimed, like items.

• Various permanent titles are earned through Veterancy. Titles are also earned at Ranks 50+, which can be set anytime just like regular titles.

• Some titles will return from season to season to get a chance to re-earn them, while others are dedicated to the Season. For example, in Season 1 of Veterancy, the titles “Brutalist” and “Sovereign” are tied to this season alone while other titles like “Striker” can be earned in every Season.

• Temporary titles and a new HUD element in your target panel are applied while in Veterancy zones to show your current Veterancy Seasonal Rank. This is where the CP level normally would be displayed, so you’ll get a sense of a player’s current active status in the season. You’ll also see their lifetime Alliance Rank on the right side of the target display.

• Veterancy progresses through AP and (to a lesser amount) XP gains in any Cyrodiil campaign, Battlegrounds, or Imperial City.

• There are 100 ranks to Veterancy.
• At the max rank of Veterancy, you will earn a repeatable reward.

• Veterancy has an average duration of 6 months, or 6 “30 day“ Cyrodiil Campaign durations (depending on patch cycle timing in relation to campaign ending timings), after which a new PvP Veterancy Season will begin.

Vengeance Campaign (Season Zero Content)
The Vengeance Campaign will be released as part of Season Zero, on June 8.
Vengeance Campaign is up full time with other campaign changes.

• In this update, Vengeance Campaign is available full time as a campaign to select for your Cyrodiil battles.

• As a reminder, this campaign has modified abilities, loadouts, unique perks and a higher population cap (3x the cap of normal Cyrodiil campaigns) to allow for truly large scale battles!

• This campaign will be a 30 day duration campaign

Other Campaign Changes

• Perks earned through the Veterancy System will be available to apply to your Loadouts while in Vengeance.
• New Loadout Skill lines have been added to give even more options for your build while in Vengeance. There are 6 new abilities per Loadout for Soldier, Vanguard, Battle Medic, and Scout, leaning into the playstyle of those loadouts.
• Gray Host campiagn will also be available. However, Ravenwatch, Icereach, and Blackreach campaigns will be closed down.
• We'll be monitoring population and queues over the next couple weeks to determine if we need any to re open any campaigns. This will be on a case by case basis. We'll follow up if and when any changes occur.

Class Mastery (Season Zero Content)
Class Mastery will be released as part of Season Zero, on June 8.
The Class Mastery system is a new feature that grants access to powerful passive effects for characters that have mastered (i.e. reached level 50) in all 3 of their native class skill lines and are not actively subclassing. Here we explain the rules and mechanics of these skill lines, while the actual passives will be listed in the Combat section.

• These skill lines will utilize Class Mastery Points; distinct from Skill Points, these are exclusively utilized in your Class Mastery skill line and are unlocked automatically when you unlock Class Mastery. For the time being you are limited to 2, which are both immediately granted.
  • Losing access to Class Mastery in any capacity will refund these points and their effects, and the respec process is the same as normal skill points through the Respec or Armory systems.
• Activating subclassing in any capacity by swapping out one or more of your native class skills will automatically refund and unlearn any currently active purchases from Class Mastery. The skill line will also remain hidden while subclassing, only appearing again when you respec into all your native class skill lines.
  • The skill line will appear greyed out in your skills page on low level characters, with a small blurb on how to unlock the skill line.
• This system is HIGHLY iterative and will likely see significant changes over time, as its primary goal is to lessen the gap between subclassing and “pure” or “mono-classing.”
  • As we continue work on the class refresh, the contents of these skill lines will be adjusted as necessary both functionally and numerically.
• Each class will have its own UNIQUE skill line called “Class Mastery” which currently holds five unique passives that augment or upgrade core experiences to the specific class. Each passive requires 1 Class Mastery Point to learn but can be respecced at any time with the respec feature. These effects range from agnostic power increases to more role centric or passive specific upgrades, so make sure to read carefully to see how these effects can influence your character!
• Passive effects stating they “upgrade” a specific effect means they require you to have access to the effect. For example, a passive that “upgrades rank 2 of Blood Magic” will require you to purchase Blood Magic rank 2 before the passive begins to affect your character.

Dynamic Encounters (Season One content)
Dynamic Encounters will be released as part of Season One
A new format of in-game events for overland zones, Dynamic Encounters are multiple step encounters that display their objectives to participating players. Each encounter has different objectives and activities required to succeed. Join your fellow players to earn new rewards!

• Vampire Hunt Join a vampire hunter and her trusty hound in a trek across Glenumbra to destroy a powerful vampire. This event begins northwest of the North Hag Fen Wayshrine in Glenumbra. This event moves as it progresses – so look for the icon if you are joining later!
• Farm Aflame Bandits set fire to a farm in Auridon. Put out the flames and rescue the escaped horses to set things right again. This event begins at the farm north of the Vulkhel Guard Wayshrine in Auridon.
• Bilsa’s Delivery Help a traveler gather and deliver ingredients for grandma’s favorite eel pie. This event begins outside the Hightide Hollow delve, east of the Hrogar’s Hold Wayshrine in Stonefalls. This event moves as it progresses – so look for the icon if you are joining later!
• Rewards These encounters award style pages, new skill styles, and more.
• These encounters spawn every 30 minutes, so keep an eye on your map or zone chat and be ready to join in.

Tamriel Tomes
New Features

• You are now able to swap between multiple owned Premium Tamriel Tomes, progress multiple Tomes with Challenges, and use Tome Points to obtain unlocked rewards on any owned Tome.
• The end of Season experience has been added to the game. You can read more about how this works and our thinking behind it here: Tamriel Tomes Season Zero Developer Update - Elder Scrolls Online This includes the following:
  • The end of Season rewards auto-claimer.
  • The ability to roll over up to 2,000 Tome Points to a future Season’s Tamriel Tome.
  • Any excess Tome Points beyond the 2,000 Tome Point roll-over cap will be converted to Gold after the auto-claimer has finished. You will receive 10 Gold for every Tome Point converted.
• You can now obtain additional rerolls for Weekly Challenges by spending gold.
  • This is in addition to the five free Weekly Challenge rerolls every week.
  • The initial cost for additional rerolls is 500 gold, increasing up to a maximum of 10,000 gold with subsequent use. This cost resets back to 500 gold every Tuesday after the weekly reset.
• Upon reaching the Bonus Pages (the un-numbered pages at the end) of a Tamriel Tome, you will unlock additional repeatability for Weekly Challenges.
  • With the next Weekly reset after reaching this, your new Weekly Challenges can be repeated twice as many times.
  • You will also be able to receive these added repeatable Challenges upon re-rolling Weekly Challenges, once the Bonus Pages are unlocked.
  • This added repeatability lasts the duration of the Season in which you have unlocked the current Tome’s Bonus Pages.

Combat Refresh
Werewolf
The Werewolf Refresh will be released as part of Season Zero, on June 8.
With Update 50, the Werewolf skill line balance and visuals have been refreshed. A couple of highlights of the overall changes are as follows:

• You should now find it easier to maintain your werewolf form, explained further in the Combat section.
• New werewolf models have been implemented for both male and female player characters.
• The new werewolf models are roughly 20% larger than the previous model.
• Ashen, Black, and White skill styles have been added for the Werewolf Transformation ability and its morphs. These skill styles will be earnable in-game via the new Dynamic Encounters system.
• Piercing Howl is now Gnash, a new biting ability for all Werewolves to enjoy.
• A new “Slaughter” mechanic has been added, which is akin to the Vampire’s Feed and Blade of Woe assassinations.
• You can now press the crouch button while playing as a Werewolf and you will enter “Prowl,” which is a new mechanic that reduces your aggression radius against monsters by 66% and allows you to “sniff out” hidden enemies with Stealth Detection. This mechanic also makes it easier for you to go on a Slaughter rampage – have fun!

Further details on the Werewolf balance changes can be found in the Combat section.

Dragonknight
The team has also been addressing bugs and player feedback from the first round of refreshes that launched in U49. Changes include:

• Added in Emerald Green skill styles for Dragonknight’s Dragonfire Breath, Searing Strike, and Magma Armor. These will be available via the Style Master.
• Added in a skill style for Dragonknight’s Molten Weapons that does not include a weapon override. This will be available for free via the Gold Coast Bazaar.
• Updated the animation for Dragonknight’s Earthspike Mantle to read as more outwardly ‘aggressive’ through a more dramatic silhouette change.

Favor quests will send players throughout the world to take part in a variety of activities, including defeating delve bosses, fishing, crafting, feeding stray kittens, stopping assassins, and more.

Player Experience Improvements:
In U50, the Player Experience Improvements team has 10 new QOL changes they are adding to the game.
Guild Mail
Guild Mail is an extension of the in-game mail system designed to connect and update Guild members at every level! Guild mailers are a centralized, in-game resource to update Members about events, raffles, gatherings, hang-outs, and more! What will your Guild do with Guild Mail?

As a member, you will receive Guild Mail in the 'Guild Mail' Section of your Mail inbox. These mails can be deleted once seen. You can always report directly from the Mail interface if there is inappropriate/offensive content.

The ability to send Guild Mail is initially limited to Guild Leaders. Leaders can allow members of other ranks to send Guild Mail as well by setting permissions on the Guild Ranks tab.

Members with permissions to send a Guild Mail can do so by opening the Guild Menu, choosing Guild Tools, and selecting the Send option under the Guild Mail header.

Once you have your mail underway, you can target who you want to receive it. You may choose to send a mail to all ranks, several different ranks, or one specific rank. Simply add your subject and the body of your text to the mail, and send!

All Guild Mails will expire 14 days after sending, and guilds can only have 5 active Guild Mails at a given time.

Members with permissions to manage Guild Mail can do so by opening the Guild Menu, choosing Guild Tools, and selecting the Manage option under the Guild Mail header. In this interface you may see all previously sent Guild Mail. If desired, you may delete previously sent Guild Mail (for example, if a mail refers to an event that has since passed, or if you’re at the 5 cap and would like to send another).

Mages Guild Transmute Stations:
After all these years, the Mages Guild has finally cracked the code on creating their own version of a Transmute Station!

• Elden Root
• Stormhaven
• Mournhold
• Leyawiin
• Wrothgar
• Skingrad
• Vivec City
• Necrom
• Alinor
• Rimmen

Path to Adventure:
This new personal Golden Pursuit Campaign is a feature meant to provide guidance and rewards to new players, as well as returning players who have not acquired the Level 20 Accountwide Achievement.

For new players, they’ll encounter a new pop-up after completing the Soul Shriven in Coldharbour tutorial, that will guide them to the Path to Adventure Golden Pursuit Campaign. For returning players, they’ll see it first thing on their next log-in and be offered the short mini-quest that will help them rediscover combat basics.

The campaign will help guide them along their way, from getting a mount more quickly, to gathering skyshards, upgrading their bag, exploring zones and taking on quests.

This campaign also features a new ‘Hint’ feature. If you aren’t quite sure about what to do next or how to go about it, you can get a hint to guide you to the next Path to Adventure task.

Exemplary Item Deconstruction
We have now added the ability for you to deconstruct your exemplary items or sell them for gold.

Daily Quest Limit Cap Increased
We have increased the cap on the number of daily quests that can be completed on a character per day from 50 to 100.
Developer Note: We saw too many players naturally hitting this cap via sharing quests, playing together, and during events. Consequently, we have raised this to reduce the unnecessary friction it presented.
Updated Text on the Character Select Screen
Previously, on the Character Select Screen, if you pressed ‘Back’, the game would log you out. We have updated this text to be appropriately labeled as ‘Logout’.

Companion Experience Rate Gain Improvements
We have doubled the amount of experience your companion gains from combat at each of the rapport levels. You should find this means your companion will level more quickly, particularly at the higher rapport levels.

Vampire & Werewolf Quest Improvements
We have made a series of improvements to the Vampire & Werewolf quests to further improve them from our initial pass in Update 49.
First, we have made it so that now ALL players (who are not currently either a vampire or a werewolf) can take the quest starters from the Crown Store. If you have never been a vampire or werewolf before, these starters will get you to the relevant quest givers for you can begin the process of transforming into your bitiest self.

Further, we have eliminated the gold cost requirement to get cured in-game by a Priest of Arkay. They will now cure you out of the goodness of their hearts. 💗

We have also added lines if you wish to flirt with either Azisa or Firralthel.

Last but not least, we have also done some world-building improvements and updated some VO to clear up some Molag Bal vs Lamae Bal inconsistencies.

AFK Timer in Character Create
Previously, the AFK timer in the character creation screen was 5 minutes. This could result in players losing their progress and cool created characters if they walked away at the wrong moment or didn’t touch any keys while thinking of the perfect name. This AFK timer has now been increased to 15 minutes, so this is much less likely to occur.

Motif Sourcing Information Added
We have added the sourcing information (where possible) to all motifs, both in the book and chapter descriptions. Now, when perusing Motifs in the Crown Store, you can have the full information of where they are sourced in-game.
Developer Note: This is meant to help eliminate any potential regret and to enable the player to have all the information they need to make an informed decision in-game.

Achievement Reorganization
A significant reorganization of Achievement Categories has happened to assist players in finding achievements associated with content by type as well as reduce the amount of overall categories on the achievement list.

• Achievements for prologues have been organized into the DLC or Chapter they were associated with under a new sub-header “Prologue.”
• Dungeon achievement sub-category “Trials” has been converted to a major category! All of its trial achievements are now sorted into individual trials. The public dungeon achievements section has been moved from “Dungeons” to be under “Exploration” as it is apart of zones and not group content.

• General
  • Fixed an issue where Light Attacks could become stuck in the ability queue when there were multiple attempts to Light Attack while using an ability with a cast or channel time. This should resolve the issue where your character could become stuck in what appeared as a Heavy Attack animation when using these abilities and attempting to weave rapidly.
  • The buff from Continuous Attack no longer drops in the vicinity of the Lowland Bandit Camp.
  • Player pets have had their defensive capabilities updated to account for the ever growing power scaling updates for player abilities.
    • Pets’ 85% damage reduction against area and over time effects has been updated to also include any proc based damage. This is purely a PvP centric adjustment.
    • Updated the damage limit pets have to never take more than 33% of their Max Health in a single attack, rather than 45%.
  • Corrupting Pollen’s debuffs now sorts closest to area center, instead of targets missing most health.
  • Fixed an issue with certain NPC death animations after they’d been killed with Werewolf’s Slaughter ability.
  • Fixed an issue where some cleanse effects did not properly interact with triggers that key off removing negative effects
• The following effects now update per tick instead of on area enter:
  • Bahraha’s Curse’s damage
  • Budding Seed’s heal
  • Caltrops and morphs’ snare
  • Cleansing Ritual and Extended Ritual’s heal
  • Companion’s Grave Grasp
  • Energy Orb’s heal
  • Hand of Mephala’s snare
  • Healing Springs and morphs’ heal
  • Hearth and Home’s snare
  • Pestilent Host’s damage
  • Plague Slinger’s damage
  • Reconstructive Domain’s heal
  • Refreshing Path’s heal
  • Renewing Undeath’s heal
  • Revealing Flare and morphs’ reveal
  • Ring of Preservation’s heal
  • Shadow of the Red Mountain’s damage
  • Thurvokun’s damage
  • Trapping Webs and morphs’ damage
  • Winterborn’s damage
• Fixed an issue where some bonuses that granted “damage done to monsters” were multiplicative with other damage bonuses, instead of additive. Affects the following;
  • Ansuul’s Torment: Also adjusted this set to 7% damage done to monsters, increasing to 21% for 30 seconds after interrupting, rather than 7% and increasing to 14% for 10 seconds after interrupting.
  • Bahsei’s Mania: Adjusted this set’s bonus to 15% max, up from 10%.
  • Empower: Adjusted to 150%, up from 70%
  • Shadow Cloak: Adjusted to 15%, up from 12%.
  • Tidborn Wildstalker: Adjusted to 15%, up from 12%
  • Velothi Ur-Mage's Amulet
  [Developer Comment]
  This fix will result in the affected effects to be potentially reduced in power when used in tandem with other percent based damage bonuses, while being increased in other contexts. Our goal with this adjustment is to correct unintentional combat calculations that allowed certain sets to read as the same strength as others, while being drastically stronger in certain situations. Moving forward when we make bonuses operate differently in the calculation from multiplicative or additive, we will strive to use key differentiating terminology, such as “Potency of” to denote multiplicative increases.

[/list]

• Subclassing
  • Fixed an issue with mastered subclassing skill lines not being removed from other characters.
• Visual and Audio Bugfixes
  • General
    • When crouching, combat animations now play whenever your weapons are drawn instead of just when you are in combat.
    • Certain hairstyles no longer ‘float’ while you have your weapons drawn.
  • Dragonknight
    • Adjusted the effects for Dragonfire Breath and its morphs to be more performant in an effort to prevent them from being randomly culled while in use.

    • The Molten Weapons animation now cancels properly while using Dual Wield or One-Handed and Shield.

        • The Languid Eye: Decreased the stacks this Ultimate can achieve to 12 (the natural cap of 1 cast), down from 20. Introduced a cooldown to stack generation, preventing cases where multi-casting this Ultimate would allow them to generate stacks faster than the intended rate. Note that multi-casting this Ultimate is expected to have each cast inherit the highest stacks (they do not each have separate stack counters for the same caster, as none of the game's stacking effects do).
          
          [Developer Comment]
          While this is a nerf to the ceiling of damage, in reality the vast majority of use cases will never feel these changes. These are specific adjustments to quell some insanely high damage productions in special cases where you're able to have more than 1 Languid Eye active at a time.

• Dragonknight
  • Ardent Flame
    • Lava Whip
      • Flame Lash: This morph no longer grants increased damage done after consuming all charges, as we have recontextualized damage into the Class Mastery system.
      • Molten Whip: This morph no longer grants increased damage done per stack, as we have recontextualized damage into the Class Mastery system.
    • Core of Flame: Fixed an issue where this ability and its morphs could cause desyncs to your resources if repeatedly cast while already active and while a cost per tick ability was active. These abilities will now begin to restore resources after a 350ms delay rather than instantly because of this fix.
      • Heart of Flame: This morph now heals you for 15% of your Max Health per tick, rather than 12-15% of your missing Health per tick. Adjusted the rank up progression to 1.1% healing done per rank (0.15495 at rank IV).
    • Searing Strike:
      • Searing Claw: Fixed an issue where this morph's rank up progression always returned as max rank, rather than properly building up to the max bonus effect.
    • Inferno: Fixed an issue where this ability and the Incinerate morphs’ damage were not considered direct damage in some cases.
      • Incinerate: Fixed an issue where the visuals for this ability failed to appear if the ability killed the target and ended combat immediately.
    • Shifting Standard: This ultimate's visuals now correctly ends at the same time as the ability actually ends when using in tandem with the Elf Bane set.
  • Draconic Power
    • Wing Buffet: Fixed an issue where this ability and the Fleetstep Wings morphs’ knock back and stun effects were unintentionally treated as proc events.
    • Dragonfire Breath
      • Engulfing Dragonfire: This morph can now apply the Wildfire Embers passive to the first enemy hit, up to once every 4 seconds.
  • Earthen Heart
    • Earthspike Mantle
      • Shatterspike Mantle: This ability now tracks the duration of the bonus damage, rather than the damage over time effect with Combat Timers settings, to alleviate the issue where killing targets with the damage over time effect active would result in the timer to be wiped. Fixed an issue where this morph's effects did not all inherit Elf Bane's duration extension, resulting in other cases where Combat Timers could produce confusing results.
      • Superheated Ward: Updated the animation for this ability and the Volcanic Ward morph to align better with the style and language of the abilities, and to offer more variation from the damaging morph.
• Necromancer
  • Bone Tyrant
    • Bitter Harvest: This ability and its morphs now work properly with effects that treated targets as a corpse, such as Bone Armor, Nobility in Decay, etc.
  • Nightblade
    • Assassination
      • Pressure Points: This passive now grants 1|2% Critical Chance per Nightblade ability slotted, rather than 1.25|2.5% Critical Chance per Assassination ability slotted.
    [Developer Comment]
    While we won’t be updating passives always ahead of a class’s refresh schedule, small targeted changes like this can help us correct some of the dominant behaviors ahead of time while opening more opportunities for other builds to have a chance to shine. This should help pure class Nightblade a smidge, while also toning down slightly how dense the power is here. We don’t expect this to drastically shake things up, but it fits our needs and is helping two birds with one stone.
• Warden
  • Green Balance
    • Nature’s Gift: This passive now restores 125|250 Magicka and Stamina to you when overhealing any target with a Green Balance ability, rather than restoring 138|277 Magicka or Stamina, whichever is higher, whenever you heal an ally with a Green Balance ability.
  • Winter’s Embrace
    • Sleet Storm
      • Northern Storm: This ultimate now grants 4% damage done per stack, up from 2%. This bonus decreases to 1% per stack while Battle Spirit is active.
    • Frozen Gate: Fixed an issue where this ability and its morphs teleport could prompt a Break Free activation, despite not being able to be canceled. This will prevent the Champion star, Slippery, from wasting itself, and should save those with gunslinger showdown DRAW! reaction times from wasting Stamina on something that provides no benefit. It will however, continue to provide Crowd Control Immunity after the pull occurs.

• Class Mastery
  • Warden
    • Warden’s current passives are highly generic and number focused while we work on the Class Refresh experience for the class. Expect these to change in tandem with that effort when it comes!
    • Tundra’s Maw: This passive upgrades the Chilled status effect to also apply Major Brittle for 2 seconds upon application.
    • Wild Adaptation: This passive increases your Weapon and Spell Damage by 333 for each status effect your target has on them, up to a max of 1665. Note this can also apply to friendly targets!
    • Glacial Obstinance: This passive upgrades Bond with Nature to also trigger off activating Winter’s Embrace abilities, and causes the effect to grant you 15% Weapon and Spell Damage for 10 seconds if you are at full Health after the heal.
    • Green-Keeper's Hide: This passive reduces your damage taken by 3% for every status effect on your attacker, up to a maximum of 15%.
    • Nature’s Bounty: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Nature’s Gift to grant you and group members Major Heroism for 3 seconds and an additional 125 Magicka and Stamina, up to once every 2 seconds.
  • Templar
    • Bastion of Light: This passive causes you to heal for 8% of your Max Health every second that Sacred Ground is active. If you are at full Health after the heal, you generate 2 Ultimate while in combat. Sacred Ground will also be able to activate while you are inside the area of your Nova or Spear Shards, or while Radial Sweep or Solar Barrage are active.
    • Devout Guardian: This passive causes you to gain a Damage Shield for 6 seconds, up to once every 6 seconds, while Sacred Ground is active. The shield absorbs up to 20% of your Max Health and grants 300 Health, Magicka, and Stamina Recovery while active. If the shield breaks, you gain 10 Ultimate.
    • Bright Harbinger: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Illuminate to grant the affected group members 300 Weapon and Spell Damage, increasing to 600 for you.
    • Judgment’s Brand: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Burning Light to increase your damage done with Templar abilities by 1400 (700 against players) for 3.1 seconds after activating.
    • Steadfast Candescence: This passive increases the amount of damage you can block by 20% while stationary and causes you to gain Sacred Ground while Bracing.
  • Sorcerer
    • Conservation of Energy: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Blood Magic to also activate off any ability with a cost, excluding cost per tick abilities, and to also restore 2% Magicka and Stamina upon activation.
    • Font of Power: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Exploitation to also activate off any Sorcerer ability, and to grant you 1% Weapon and Spell Damage for every 1750 Max Magicka or Stamina you have, whichever is higher, for 10 seconds.
    • Static Reverberation: This harkens to an ancient passive (Implosion). This passive causes your damaging attacks to have 5% chance to trigger an additional hit of Shock Damage (31.5% of the higher of your Weapon or Spell Damage), up to once every 300ms. The proc chance is increased by 1% for every 1% missing Health the target has.
      • This total chance is further reduced for every permanent pet you have active. The calculation is % chance (based on 5% + 1% for each missing Health) divided by 1 + the number of permanent pets you have active.
        • 1 pet = (5% + 1% chance for every 1% missing Health) divided by 2.
        • 2 pets = (5% + 1% chance for every 1% missing Health) divided by 3...
    • Calculated Defense: This passive causes you to gain a damage shield that absorbs 33% of your Max Health for .5 seconds anytime you begin to activate a Sorcerer ability or an ability with a cast time. If the shield fails to break, you grant you and your group members 6% Weapon and Spell Damage for 20 seconds.
    • Sphere of Influence: This passive causes your damage shield abilities to grant an additional damage shield to the target for 3 seconds that absorbs up to 15% of their Max Health as damage, scaling with 15% of the higher of your Max Magicka or Health. Targets also gain 225 Health, Magicka, and Stamina Recovery for 12 seconds.
  • Nightblade
    • Nocturnal Inspiration: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Hemorrhage to have a chance equal to your Weapon Critical chance to grant you 2 Ultimate, up to once every .3 seconds.
    • An Eye for Exploitation: This passive increases your Weapon and Spell Damage by up to 2000 and reduces your damage taken by up to 20%, both based on your target’s missing Health. These values both halve against targets with Battle Spirit.
      • Note this works for any effects that scale with Weapon and Spell Damage, meaning it can increase damage against low health enemies, increase healing against low health allies (including yourself), and reduces damage taken from low health enemies.
    • Above and Beyond: This passive increases your Critical Damage and Healing by 25% (5% against players). It also increases your maximum potential Critical Damage and Healing by 30%, meaning it adds to the normal cap of 125%, bringing it to 155%.
    • Evasive Trance: This passive causes you to dodge incoming attacks for 1/3rd of a second when activating a Nightblade ability while Bracing. Dodging any attack through any means causes your attacker to take 5% increased damage for 5 seconds, increasing to 20 seconds against monsters.
    • Share the Spoils: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Transfer to double the ultimate you gain from it (4, up from 2) while also granting nearby group members 250 Magicka and Stamina and 2 Ultimate upon activating.
  • Necromancer
    • Nothing Wasted: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Corpse Consumption to also grant a stack of Nothing Wasted for 15 seconds every time you consume a corpse, up to 10 stacks max. Nothing Wasted increases your Max Health and Weapon and Spell Damage by 2% per stack. If the stacks reach their full duration, they instead lose 3 stacks and refresh, rather than losing all stacks.
    • Malevolent Promise: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Corpse Consumption to mark the closest non-player enemy to you with death’s touch for 6 seconds whenever you consume a corpse, which allows you to use a corpse consuming ability against them. This can occur once every 2 seconds. Consuming or replacing this effect triggers rank 2 of Death Gleaning and forcibly triggers rank 1 of Corpse Consumption’s Ultimate generation.
    • Cycle Unending: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Reusable Parts to also grant Cycle Unending for 25 seconds, increasing the potency of your damage done by 1% for every 1% more current Health percent you have compared to your enemy. This bonus caps at 25% (10% against players).
      • If you have 75% current Health, and your enemy has 50%, you would gain 25% damage potency against them (10% if they are a player).
    • Pound of Flesh: This passive grants you a 10% chance when taking damage to restore 10% Health and 5% of your missing Stamina, up to once every second. This chance increases by 1% for every 1% missing Health you have.
      • If you have 50% Health after being damaged, you’d have a 61% chance to activate this passive.
    • Veil’s Forfeit: This passive activates when directly healing a target below 66% Health, which allows you to use a corpse consuming ability against them within 10 seconds. This effect can occur once every second. Passively increases the duration of all sources of Major Vulnerability you apply by 50%.
  • Dragonknight
    • Inexorable Descent: This passive upgrades Landslide to also grant 1% potency to damage and healing done, and damage shield strength per stack.
      • “Potency to” means this bonus applies to the base calculation of these events, causing it to become multiplicative with other bonuses.
    • Booming Voice: This passive upgrades rank 2 of The Storm Voice to also grant 5 Health, Magicka, and Stamina Recovery per ultimate spent for 10 seconds, after a 15 second delay.
    • Wildfire Embers: This passive upgrades your Dragonknight damage over time effects that apply to enemies (Searing Strike, Dragonfire Breath, Burning Talons, Shatterspike Mantle) to apply a unique 12 second damage over time effect on enemies whenever the triggering abilities end. This damage effect stacks up to 12 times, increasing by 25% damage per stack past 1 (up to 275%)
      • “End” in this case means naturally expiring, being recast early, or being cleansed.
      • Base damage is 10.5% of your Weapon or Spell Damage and 1% of your Max Magicka or Stamina per tick.
    • Resolute Defense: This passive increases the amount of damage you can block by 6% every second you remain Bracing, up to 30%. Blocking has a 20% chance to restore 500 Stamina, up to once every 250ms.
    • Lead From the Front: This passive upgrades rank 2 of The Storm Voice to also apply Major Berserk and Protection for 1 second per 15 Ultimate spent to you and group members within 28m of you.
  • Arcanist
    • Abyssal Emergence: This passive upgrades your Arcanist Ultimates to immediately generate 3 Crux upon activation, while also granting 666 Weapon and Spell Damage for 15 seconds after activating.
    • Fate Realigned: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Implacable Outcome to also generate 3 Crux upon activation, and to grant 300 Weapon and Spell Damage for 25 seconds, up to once every 15 seconds.
    • Unbound Potential: This passive upgrades rank 2 of Fated Fortune to also increase your damage done by 30% (15% against players) for 7 seconds.
    • Erudite’s Rigor: This passive upgrades Fatewoven Armor to apply Minor Cowardice on the attacker for 4 seconds, grant you and group members Major Vitality for 4 seconds, and to grant you 1 Ultimate per Crux you have when taking damage. These effects can occur once every 2 seconds.
    • Ink-Scribe’s Verve: This passive enables you to generate a Crux and to grant you and group members Major Force for 10 seconds when you heal or overheal a total of 100000 Health while in combat.
• World
  • Werewolf
    • The Werewolf experience has been updated alongside the Combat Refresh initiative, updating almost all of its combat effects in some capacity. At its core, we’ve made sweeping changes that should align towards making the transformation more fluid, easier to sustain and manage, with more overall potential build craft and support.
    • Added a new “Prowl” mechanic, which replaces Crouch while transformed. Prowl costs 5130 Stamina to activate, and grants 6 seconds of 66% reduced aggression radius (enemies will require you to be closer to them before they notice you and attack) and Stealth Detection (this is equal to the same strength as a detection potion). There is a 3 second cooldown on activating Prowl to prevent excessive Stamina loss.
      • Prowl does not have a unique animation, but instead overrides your character posture to begin to sniff around it. This will blend out while attacking.
    • Added a “Slaughter” mechanic, which is a new synergy that becomes active against targets that you would normally be able to use Blade of Woe or Vampire Feed against. You’ll have to experiment to see for yourself what it all entails, but it is largely meant as a fun-first experience, rather than an in combat decision making tool. It is quite potent in the higher difficulties of challenge mode however!
  • Werewolf Transformation:
    • This Ultimate and its morphs have been largely reworked in regards to how they function to cast and manage. These Ultimates now only require 100 Ultimate to activate but will continue to drain 100 Ultimate every 10 seconds while they are active. Failing to have 100 Ultimate when the cost per tick occurs will forcibly de-transform you. The cost to maintain transformation is now completely disabled outside of combat, to help mitigate the need to constantly engage in combat. Ultimate generation is no longer disabled while transformed, making it the primary method of sustaining your form.
    • Completely rescripted the backend of the transformation, resulting in all Werewolf effects and passives to only apply while Transformed and a college dissertation level of data structuring changes, rather than applying permanently and constantly checking if you’re in Werewolf form. This should have no observable changes in behavior (unless called out otherwise in further sections), and is largely non-player facing and only aims at helping cut down on combat calculations for Werewolf characters (we saved 15 whole effects, which is a new record). However, if you experience issues where you lose access to passives or other effects while in Werewolf form, please let us know!
    • Transforming into a Werewolf no longer increases your Maximum Stamina by 30%. Instead, all Werewolf abilities that scale with Stamina or Magicka will now be 30% more dense in their scaling, allowing for similar levels of combat power as before, without the added bonus of having a deeper resource pool.
    • Reduced the Poison damage taken while transformed to 10%, down from 25%.
    • Werewolf Stamina costing abilities (aside from the core combat mechanics such as Block, Bash, Dodge, or Prowl) now cost 1/3rd of their ability category counterpart, rather than costing 25% more. This was done to help open more potential build opportunities for non-Stamina damage dealers to utilize Werewolf, while also adding to the sensation that this Ultimate is a transformation that makes you more powerful in some capacity. The cost is now almost exclusively on maintaining the form, rather than the form and your normal resources – helping simplify its combat loop and letting you focus while the beast is unleashed.
    • Werewolf combat actions no longer see a 15% damage increase in their scaling. We’ll cover this more in each ability, but fear not, Werewolves are stronger than they were before in most cases with some other adjustments.
    • The unique bar that activates while in Werewolf form has been reworked to house a new mechanic, called “Fury”. Fury is a unique resource that generates from activating Werewolf abilities while in combat. It stores up to 1000, and each ability activated grants 15 at base. Fury does not decay, but leaving Werewolf form will result in losing all built-up Fury. Morphs and passives both can expedite the amount of Fury generated or can even add more forms of generating it. While you have 1000 Fury, your Ultimate ability will be replaced with “Rampage.” Activating Rampage drains all Fury and grants you a 20 second window of increased power, increasing your Movement Speed by 20%, damage done by 15%, and removes the cost of all Werewolf abilities, including the Transformation. Activating Rampage will temporarily disable your ability to activate the Werewolf Transformation again, to create the sensation of loss of control to this inner beast, as well as making it harder to accidentally activate and immediately lose the effect if you input the button multiple times and de-transform.
    • Werewolf Light Attacks no longer have their base damage capped at 4813 like other Light Attacks, in efforts to help add more potential damage while transformed.
      • Werewolf Berserker: This morph now grants Major Berserk while transformed. Updated the Bleed from this morph to apply on Light and Heavy Attacks, rather than only Light Attacks. The Bleed now appears to stack up to 5 times in total and upon reaching 5 stacks, the 1 second delay will be removed, allowing you to deal much more consistent damage while sticking to a target. Stacks do not augment damage or duration. The Bleed no longer fails to reapply if it is already active, meaning the first few Light Attacks will result in a damage decrease, while drastically increasing beyond. Reduced the duration of the Bleed to 1 second against players, down from 4. Reduced the damage scaling by ~35.5% on the Weapon and Spell Damage and ~16% for the Magicka and Stamina. Heavy Attacks in this form no longer create an area of effect in a cone around the target. This morph now also improves Devour, which will be explained in the passive section.
      • Pack Leader: This morph now increases the amount of damage you can block by 30% and grants Major Protection while transformed, rather than a unique 10% damage reduction. It continues to spawn 2 direwolves and grants you and nearby group members Minor Courage. This morph also improves Rampage to Enduring Rampage, which adds 4000 Health recovery to the base effects.
        • Adjusted the attack speed of the direwolves to happen at a more consistent pace, rather than going in between erratically fast and slow attacks. Fixed an issue where the damage of the direwolves did not dynamically scale with your offensive stats. Fixed an issue where the damage done was missing rank up progression built in, resulting in a 3.3% damage increase. Added some minor variance to their attacks so they do not perfectly attack in unison, making them feel less like a hive mind entity and more like wolves fighting in a pack.

[Developer Comment]
There's a lot to unpack here so we'll start with our overall intentions and design philosophies.

• Pounce and Carnage: These abilities and their morphs now dynamically update themselves based on your distance from your target, rather than requiring you to activate Pounce and then locking you into activating Carnage for 5 seconds after. Pounce is only available when you are greater than 7 meters to a target, while Carnage takes over when you are 7 meters or closer to a target. Note that this will result in only Carnage displaying on your hot bar when you hover over it outside of the skill system, as you are the context of the target. Your skill book will always display Pounce. Reduced the cost of Pounce and its morphs to 1071, down from 4016. Adjusted the damage of Pounce to .63 Weapon or Spell Damage and .078 Magicka or Stamina, rather than .7875 and .075. Reduced the cost of Carnage and its morphs to 995, down from 2008. Adjusted the damage per tick to 0.095455 Weapon or Spell Damage and .0118182 Magicka or Stamina, rather than .098438 and .009375. Increased the base duration to 12 seconds, up from 10.
  • Brutal Pounce and Carnage: Increased the radius of these abilities to 7 meters, up from 5. Brutal Carnage’s damage over time now stacks up to 3 times, increasing by 10 seconds per stack, rather than granting stacking Weapon and Spell Damage when hitting enemies.
  • Feral Pounce and Carnage: This morph now grants 200 Stamina each time either portion of the ability deals damage, rather than granting 100 Stamina and 1 second of Werewolf timer. Whenever either version of this morph deals damage, it will also trigger Fury generation (in addition to the Fury generated for activating it), up to once every 4 seconds. This allows Feral Pounce to generate it twice per cast, and Feral Carnage to generate Fury up to 3 times over its duration.
  [Developer Comment]
  We're making this ability and its 2 forms significantly more straight forward to use by having them automatically update to the effect you need in the moment. When you need to close the distance, the Pounce variant of the ability will take over and allow you to leap to your enemy, while the Carnage variant will be available when you're within melee range of your foe. We're also slightly adjusting the morph differences to be less about raw damage versus utility and going into two forms of utility, both of which have the potential for damage. Brutal Pounce and Carnage remain better for area of effect damage and Carnage saves on global cooldowns, letting you experience a more simplified rotation (especially helpful if you plan on using one of the reworked morphs of Rending Claws), while Feral Pounce aids in Stamina management through block and helps you activate Rampage more frequently, which grants a large damage steroid.

• Hircine’s Bounty: Reduced the healing of this ability by 8%. Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs to 4320, down from 5737. This ability and Hircine’s Rage now restore 10% of your Max Stamina, increasing by 1% for every 1% current Health you have (up to a maximum of 20% Stamina) after the heal, rather than granting 2700-3000 Stamina if you were at full Health before the healing went off.
  • Hircine’s Fortitude: Reduced the healing of this morph by ~19%. This morph now increases the Stamina restored to 12% of your Max Stamina at base, increasing by 1% for every 1% current Health you have (up to 24% Max Stamina). This morph now adds Major Vitality while slotted, rather than granting Minor Fortitude and Endurance for 20 seconds after activating.
  • Hircine’s Rage: This morph now heals based on your Offensive stats, rather than Max Health. The healing is ~17% weaker than a traditional burst heal such as Rushed Ceremony. This morph now increases your damage done and taken for 17-20 seconds by up to 12%, based on how high your current Health percent is, rather than applying Major Berserk and increasing your damage taken by 10-7% for 10 seconds if you were at full Health while casting. This morph also generates double Fury on activation and adds Minor Berserk while slotted.
  [Developer Comment]
  We're toning down how much raw healing this ability and its morphs can do while simultaneously adding more purpose to the button press for resource management for tanks or in PvP encounters. Now rather than being a binary heal vs restore, it will grant both, and will reward you in similar situations - granting more resources while at higher Health. Hircine's Fortitude sees a decrease in the initial healing, but gains the potential to be healed significantly more while in groups or using other effects and morphs, helping out the tankier paths, while Hircine's Rage continues to focus on the offensive nature but with a healthier balance as both the bonuses and the punishments degrade as you weaken while also healing more effectively for damage dealers.

• Roar: This ability and its morphs now have a 350ms cast time before they apply their effects to help better line up their animations to their outcomes, fixing issues where you would be feared before even seeing an animation. Increased the radius to 10 meters, up from 7. Reduced the cost to 1071, down from 4303. This ability and its morphs now apply a stack of Blood Hunger for 30 seconds, stacking up to 4 times. Blood Hunger empowers Gnash (previously Piercing Howl) and Claw Fury (previously Claws of Anguish) to deal additional damage. These abilities no longer apply Terrified (this is effectively an easier to use form of that mechanic, with more interplay within their kit). This ability and its morphs are now home of the Feeding Frenzy synergy, rather than being placed on the Howl of Despair morph. Feeding Frenzy is granted to up to 12 nearby allies for 10 seconds within the radius of your Roar. Feeding Frenzy now lasts for 30 seconds, up from 20, and increases damage done by 6% instead of granting Empower (the synergy continues to grant Minor Force as well).
  • Deafening Roar: This morph now applies Major Maim and Cowardice to enemies hit for 12-15 seconds, rather than Major Breach and Minor Maim for 7-10 seconds. The passive slot for this morph now grants Major Evasion and Minor Protection, rather than Major Protection (as this was moved to Pack Leader). Purchasing this morph will automatically upgrade your Gnash and morphs (the rework of Piercing Howl) to also taunt the enemy if the ability was cast while Bracing, making taunting more deliberate and less dangerous compared to the previous slot passive of Heavy Attacking to taunt.
  • Ferocious Roar: This morph now also applies Major Courage to you and 11 nearby allies for 20 seconds, allows you to use your own synergy, and grants 2 stacks of Blood Hunger on cast, rather than increasing the speed of your Heavy Attacks by 33%.
  [Developer Comment]
  We're making Roar and its morphs the home of the Feeding Frenzy synergy in efforts to make the effect more easily accessible, while also adding a little incentive to bringing the pack to groups with the unique damage bonus. Additionally, we're improving the Terrified mechanic into Blood Hunger, which can now stack for multiple uses, helping reward a more diverse rotation in PvE and PvP, while also being easier to use at a baseline. Blood Hunger isn't completely exclusive to Roar either, as the effect can now be referenced by other morphs, for those who are looking to sink their teeth into more complicated rotations. This should help keep the Werewolf experience simpler, but with some added forms of mastery for those who find themselves hungering for more.

• Piercing Howl -> Gnash: This ability and its morphs have been completely reworked into a melee (7m) driven double bite attack, rather than a 10m projectile howl attack. The ability now scales with .525 of your Weapon or Spell Damage and .065 of your Magicka or Stamina twice, rather than a singular 1.3125 and .125 scaling attack. The initial hit deals Physical Damage, while the second hit deals Bleed Damage. Both attacks have a 10% chance of applying their respective status effects. The second hit happens after .4s (no cast time, so it can be animation canceled with no loss) and deals 125% bonus damage to targets under 25% Health. If 1 or more stacks of Blood Hunger are active, the initial hit deals 25% bonus damage and 1 stack is consumed. Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs to 765, down from 2869.
  • Howl of Agony -> Bloody Gnash: This morph now adds a 50% chance when benefiting from Blood Hunger to not consume a stack. This morph also upgrades the 2nd hit to always apply the Hemorrhaging status effect. Increased the execute scaling of the 2nd hit to 200%. This morph no longer increases damage done against Off Balance targets or reduces in cost as it ranks up.
  • Howl of Despair -> Rip and Tear: This morph upgrades the 1st hit to always apply the Sundered status effect, as well as inflicting Major Breach to the target for 12-15 seconds. The second hit heals you for .2066 of your Max Health (and ranks up by 1.1% per rank) if it hits. Blood Hunger’s 25% increase applies to the healing effect for this morph, rather than the base damage. This morph no longer grants access to Feeding Frenzy, as it has been moved to Roar.

  Werewolves have finally learned to put their jaws to use with this new spammable, rending flesh from their foes with a much more brutal two part attack – gone are the days of angrily yelling your opponents to death. Gnash operates as both your standard fare single target spammable and an execute both in one, helping make up for the Werewolf’s bar space deficit while leaning into their fantasy of masters of the hunt. A hunter who cannot finish off their prey often returns empty handed after all. This helps Werewolves become significantly more terrifying to low health foes, while giving them reason to stick closer to their enemies and make use of their speed boosts in melee range. The morphs once again split with more diversity, granting two utility driven effects that can both lead to more damage, but with more of an option between damage or survivability. The previous iteration of "terrified" has also been reworked to Blood Hunger, which has slightly more interaction across their kit, while also being easier to use.

• Infectious Claws -> Rending Claws: This ability and the Claws of Life morph have been adjusted to deal Physical Damage on their initial hit and Bleed Damage for their over time effect, rather than dealing Disease Damage on both hits. Reduced the initial hit’s Weapon and Spell Damage scaling by 20%, and increased its Magicka and Stamina scaling by 4%. The damage over time now lasts for 10 seconds, down from 20. Increase the Weapon and Spell Damage scaling by ~92% and the Magicka and Stamina scaling by ~150%. This ability and its morphs now have a target cap of 6, rather than hitting all enemies. The initial hit now has a 15% chance of applying Sundered and the damage over time has a 5% chance of applying Hemorrhaging, rather than the initial hit applying Diseased and the damage over time having a 1%.
  • Claws of Anguish -> Claw Fury: This morph has been reworked into a channeled attack that deals direct Physical Damage over 4.8 seconds, hitting up to 6 enemies closest to you in a 7m cone with a 90 degree arc up to 13 times. Claw Fury generates Fury and a stack of Blood Hunger, up to once every second while dealing damage with the ability. Claw Fury scales with 0.488093 Weapon or Spell Damage and 0.060431 Magicka or Stamina per tick, and increases by 25% for each stack of Blood Hunger you have. When Claw Fury ends in any capacity, all stacks of Blood Hunger are removed.
  • Claws of Life -> Bloodclaws: This morph now heals for 40% of the initial hit damage done, rather than not healing at all on the initial hit. The damage over time now heals you for ~6.2% of your Max Health when damaging an enemy, rather than healing you for 66% of the damage done. Adjusted the rank up progression to 1.1% for the initial hit and 1.1% healing done for the healing from the damage over time.

  We're generically buffing this skill to now be a full power area effect attack and damage over time effect, rather than reducing the damage of the area effect from the damage over time. As such we're gently peeling back some of the cleave damage of the initial hit, while greatly increasing the damage over time potential in all capacities, so this ability feels more like 2 separate abilities, rather than 1 blended ability.
  Werewolves have finally also washed their damn hands, moving them away from Disease damage in the kit, instead focusing in on Physical and Bleed to help make a more savage and brutal experience. Additionally, we're splitting the morph diversity to either add more healing for both damage and bruiser builds and a rework morph that functions similarly to something like Engulfing Dragonfire, helping Werewolves who'd rather focus on cleaving foes down. Claw Fury is slightly weaker than the traditional Gnash focused build in single target, but comes out ahead in encounters with multiple enemies packed together.

• Devour -> Insatiable Hunger: This synergy now has a minor grace period for movement, allowing you to move slightly before and after activating it without causing the cast to be interrupted. Note that this grace period is NOT the same as the resurrection ability update that lets you move while casting it, and instead exists to give a small amount of time to let your momentum end if you cast it while moving. Increased the healing per tick to 20% of your Max Health, up from 8% (resulting in a 100% Heal over the total duration, up from 40%, or a 150% increase). Each tick now grants 15 Ultimate, rather than 3 seconds of Werewolf timer. Activating this synergy will disable the cost to maintain Werewolf Transformation for 12 seconds, rather than disabling the cost of maintaining only while channeling it. This passive will also trigger Fury generation each tick if you are a Werewolf Berserker, even if you are outside of combat.
• Pursuit -> Master of the Chase: This passive’s bonus to Heavy Attack resource restore now only occurs at rank 2, as it is largely irrelevant for most play styles after the cost reduction changes and cuts down on performance.
• Blood Rage: This passive now increases the amount of Fury you generate by 5|10 per source, rather than adding 3|5 seconds to your Werewolf timer when dealing damaging, up to once every 6 seconds.
• Bloodmoon -> Shadow of the Bloodmoon: Just a simple name change that updates the name away from implying the actual Bloodmoon is happening every week.
• Savage Strength -> Feral Cruelty: Increased the amount of Weapon and Spell Damage granted from this passive to 12|25%, up from 9|18%.
• Call of the Pack -> Call of the Hunt: This passive now works by reducing the Ultimate cost of maintaining Werewolf form, rather than reducing the timer drained every second. It reduces the cost by 8|16% plus 8|16% per transformed group member or direwolf, including yourself, up to 40|80%.

  This math looks more complicated than it is, but is aimed at trying to buff the solo experience for Werewolf by frontloading more of the cost reduction, to reduce the need to be in a fully fledged pack (or to pick Pack Leader morph) to get close to the same maximum values as before.

• Scripts
  • Class Mastery: These scripts have been renamed to Class Flourish to avoid confusion with the Class Mastery system (they do not require you to have Class Mastery active).
    • Warden: This script now causes charmed enemies to walk to the center of the area, rather than to follow the caster. This was done in an effort to try and mitigate the frequency this charm could force enemies through terrain.
• Updated the back end scripting of Shield Throw's Knock Back signature combination, in efforts to help mitigate the experiencing of desyncs during high latency conditions.

• New Item Sets
  • The Prowler's Talisman
    • The Prowler's Talisman is a new kind of mythic that is available to everyone.
    • It is not found in antiquities. Rather, you can acquire it by going through the new Thieves Guild storyline.
    • It can be equipped at any level, and its power increases as you complete associated content.
    • The stats listed here are for the baseline Talisman.
      • While Battle Spirit is inactive, bracing while crouching turns you invisible for 10 seconds. This can occur once every 45 seconds.
      • Increase your chances of successfully Pickpocketing by 5%.
      • On dealing Critical Damage, increase your Max Magicka and Max Stamina for 10 seconds, up to 1900 at 10 stacks.
      • On dealing non-Critical Damage, increase your Health, Magicka, and Stamina Recovery for 10 seconds, up to 160 at 10 stacks.
      • Either effect can occur up to once every 1 second.
• Current Item Sets
  • Class Sets
    • Aerie's Cry: This set now increases your damage done by 10%, rather than only damage done with Animal Companion skills by 10%.
      • This set can now stack between multiple users, correcting the conflicting design the set originally stated. Apologies to all the PvPers out there, as this means you can have multiple dive bombing birdos on you if mutliple attackers wear this set. We’ll keep an eye on how frequently this happens, as the audio is quite loud.
    • Aetheric Lancer: Updated the damage proc from this set to be considered a class ability. This should help the set scale with a few more interactions, namely a few Templar specific ones. The Weapon and Spell Damage from this set now persists for 10 seconds, up from 6, to help improve its uptime in actual combat.
    • Beacon of Oblivion: Adjusted the damage and healing bonuses while no permanent pets are active and Battle Spirit is active to 7%, up from 5%.
    • Corpseburster: Updated the damage of this set to Disease damage, rather than Magic damage. This is purely a mechanical change as the visuals remain the same. This set now always triggers the Diseased status effect. We’ve also seen the request to make this set be treated as a class effect – which we can’t do – because it already is.
    • Monolith of Storms: Increased the damage of this set by ~37.5%. This set now grants 100 Weapon and Spell Damage for every Monolith active.
    • Pyrebrand: Updated this set to interact with Wildfire Embers (a new Class Mastery for DK), rather than being based off generic damage over time effects. Decreased the damage of the damage over time proc by ~31.4%. Decreased the damage of the area effect proc by ~26.1%. Heavy Attacking now removes up to 3 stacks of Wildfire Embers or your Pyrebrand, rather than up to 3 damage over time effects. Adjusted the bonus damage effect to 25% per Wildfire Embers stack (up to 300% at max), rather than 20% per damage over time effect, up to 60%. This set can also trigger Wildfire Embers, up to once every 10 seconds.
    • Soulcleaver: Adjusted this set's 3 piece bonus to Critical Chance, rather than Max Magicka. This set's 5 piece bonus now increases the damage and healing and reduces the cost of Siphoning abilities by 15%, down from 21%. Draining Ultimate from this set now increases your damage done by up to 12% based on how high your current Health is, for 20 seconds.
    • Spattering Disjunction: This set now also increases damage done with status effects by 40% while worn and generates a Crux when the set activates.
    • Wrathsun: This set now stacks up to 30 times, down from 40, making it easier to reach the maximum potency sooner. Increased the Magicka Recovery per stack to 21, up from 12, helping offset the penalty of this set over the course of a fight while retaining the highs and lows of the sustain draw. Wrathsun at maximum stacks now increases the damage done of Templar skill line abilities by 25% (10% against players), rather than the damage scaling of Dawn's Wrath abilities by 25%.
    • Wrathsun: Fixed an issue where this set’s Magicka Recovery could appear to become stuck on your character in the character sheet – this was purely a visual error.
  • Dungeon Sets
    • Jorvuld’s Guidance: This set’s bonus duration is now properly reflected in tooltips.
    • Savage Werewolf: Adjusted this set's 2 piece to Critical Chance rather than Max Stamina and 4 piece to Weapon and Spell Damage rather than Stamina Recovery. This set's 5 piece now also grants 6% damage done while in Werewolf form.
    • Azureblight Reaper: Fixed an issue where this set did not properly require its listed stack amounts when used inside Battle Grounds. Currently, it will require 20 stacks in all situations while in Battle Grounds before it can detonate, which will be corrected to properly scale with the number of group members also wearing the set at a later date – rather than detonating immediately at any stack count.
  • Mythic Items
    • Cryptcanon’s Vestments: This set did now properly disables slot passives of Ultimates it override.
    • Shattered Path Signet: This set's bonus damage done effect with status effects is now reduced based on if Feral Guardian or its morphs are active. The value is divided by 1 + 1 if Feral Guardian is active + 1 if the target is a player.
      
      [Developer Comment]
      We're toning down how strong this mythic can be in ultra niche cases by targeting the relative problem space; pet builds, and especially ones that utilize Feral Guardian. We’re also looking to tweak some of these values and interactions in PvP to offer a more well rounded bonus, while solving how oppressive it can feel in PvP.

• Overland Sets
  • Hide of the Werewolf: This set now grants triple Ultimate generation (18) while in Werewolf form, rather than 6.

  • Cunning (Ember): The Critical Chance from this passive now correctly works

• Lara-Ma in Castle Anvil no longer attempts to play the flute at any point during her vigil near Governor Fortunata. Given how things go on the Gold Coast, it is probably safe so she doesn't trip and fall down a flight of stabbings.

  • If you unsummon Isobel at the step to choose a punishment for Kiv, you are no longer able to pick both options and cause the theaters to look weird.

• General
  • The Shard of Parched Earth now correctly animates when consumed.
  • Fixed an animation issue with players’ eyes when riding the Warparty Timber Mammoth. You don’t need glasses, we promise.
  • The Shimmering Gala Gown Veil now correctly stays in place from the beginning and end of teleporting.

• General
  • After 12 years in Tamriel, we are in the process of modernizing the audio mix of ESO. We are excited for you all to hear the changes, but be aware that due to these adjustments some of the sound levels in game might be different from what you are accustomed to.

• Bangkorai
  • To Walk on Far Shores: Crossing into the Far Shores now has a proper map or "door" pin for walking into the giant vertical beam of light.
• Coldharbour
  • Soul Shriven in Coldharbour: Fixed an issue where you would stay locked in place until you relogged if you had the Slippery champion trait active when the “break free” tutorial trigger fires. Generally only a problem with veteran players who spend champion points in the tutorial to unlock that champion star.
  • A Thorn in Your Side: The Observer's challenge now correctly starts up if you waited just inside the entrance while another player completed it.
  • Special Blend: Vastly increased the spawn rate of Kyne's Tears.

• Malabal Tor
  • The two mammoths in Silvenar Vale that were unattackable are now attackable again.
• Reaper’s March
  • The Dark Mane: Fixed an old issue where if you were on the vector quest "The Dark Mane" (whose only purpose is to send you to Fort Grimwatch) and you completed "Grim Situation" before turning it in, you wouldn't ever be able to turn in The Dark Mane because Englor is missing. While this rare situation can cause a mild sequence break (maybe Englor didn't get the memo), this errs on the side of allowing you to turn in the vector quest rather than forcing you to abandon it. Furthermore, The Dark Mane can no longer be shared with group mates so your well-meaning but unwitting group mates do not trap you in this situation.
• Scribing
  • Wing of the Crow: The Fable of the Crow quest item now has a proper icon rather than a scary looking red ?.
  • Wing of the Gryphon
    • Interacting with one of the candles out of order will no longer caus an empty "Failed:" message in your center screen announcements rather than saying the complete text of "Failed: Light the Candles in Order."

  • [CONSOLE ONLY] Installing an add-on that is dependent on an unavailable add-on will no longer leave you stuck in a perpetual installing state. You are now able to install the add-on without installing the dependency.
