Treasure Chests / Safeboxes are dropping more gold too. 138 instead of 127.

Was wondering if anything else got changed. Looks like trait research times got reduced also. A character with 0 points in research took 19 days to do a ninth trait.

Iirc, the research buff was announced somewhere.

Trait research times were lowered in U49. They're basically only a third of what they used to be.

It wont let me edit, so i should point out the difference between those 2 accounts.

The one getting 785 has 5 bars in Gilded fingers. The other account only has 1 bar in Gilded Fingers.

My master crafter has 5 bars in Gilded Fingers but is getting only 725 gold per completed writ on PCNA. /shrug

Is the OP sure they are not including ornate item sold gold? Exclusive of that, my per writ gold reward is unchanged.

That was my initial thought, too-- but the OP specifically mentioned the amount rewarded per writ, so it isn't from ornate gear.

For me, the value shown is 725, but the character gets 785.

Hmm, I was not paying attention to the amount actually received, just to the amount to be received as shown by the writ completion dialogs, so maybe I actually am getting more gold? I'll have to check again later today when I do writs.

The change is in the ESO+ gold bonus. This is why it's affecting things other than writs as well.

For some reason it appears to have gotten increased to 20%, rather than 10%

My account with ESO+ is getting extra. (5495/character)

My other accounts that do not have ESO+ are getting the original amount. (4648/character)

All have guilded fingers at +10%

I still do writs manually since I don’t understand how the alchemy mats are chosen for the addon,

For alchemy & provisioning writs I keep pre-crafted stacks of the potions/foods/drinks in my bank and LWC pulls what I need out when I go to the bank. It's faster than going to the provisioning & alchemy stations (assuming you're doing your writs somewhere like Vivec City where there's a convenient bank or you have a banker assistant) and you don't have to either worry about extras created by the crafting sitting in your inventory (if you have the passives to create 4x with one crafting) or using more mats than you need to (if you don't have those passives).

You also do not need to learn any provisioning recipes on your alt characters if you use this strategy. You technically don't need to learn any alchemy ingredients either, however learning all the base game alchemy ingredients greatly increases your chance of getting an Alchemy Master Writ. And Dolgubon has an alchemy ingredient learner add on to make learning those very quick and easy.

While on the topic of Dolgubon, his add ons are great, but if you really want to know what makes him tick I recommend reading any of the comments in the files for his add ons. Legislative text only wishes it could be this riveting, I never realized there was so much to learn about Beds, Reen, and Glue?

Learning the purple and gold recipes will also increase your chance of provisioning master writs.

Others have mentioned that you can make a stack of potions, but I also want to point out that:
1. You set writ crafter to not craft any alchemy writs
2. It chooses the cheapest combination for writs, as decided by whatever pricing addons you have, or, if you have none, some old hard-coded prices

I was particularly proud about brg! Although I will say that was for April 1 code; I usually don't do fun comments outside of that.

Certainly true, but I don't relish (heh) doing Master Writs that require a perfect roe, so I rarely bother with those.

That was the most obscure one I could remember, I named one of my characters (Undocumented Feature) after one of your comments in an add on or an update file. LOL. The tangent about self and LUA would perhaps be funnier if I understood it. Regardless, thanks again.

The tangent about self was just me trying to make an informative guide about self. So you didn't miss any jokes

Hmm, not sure which would be better, I end up having potions on each character when they need to do them (because of the passives) so that’s okay, though I would prefer not to do them in advance. However, I tend to use the ingredients that I have more quantity, they might be cheapest or might not. I’ll probably just keep doing them my way since I’ve been doing that for ten years. I got burned by the daily writs for mudcrab chitin and used up about 1000 of them (my whole stock) because I didn’t realize it. I don’t want that happening again. Thanks for the reply, though.

All have guilded fingers at +10%

My conclusion as well as my alts(non eso+ accounts) do not get any increase.

Ok, so for my part at least, have solved this mystery.

Green CP tree - Gilded Fingers -> not sure if this node ever worked or not on writ gold, but it now clearly does.

Wondered what you guys claiming 785g per max tier writ was talking about, since when I checked in game, mined was all 725g. But later realized I checked on my 2nd acct, and looked again on main acct.

ESO+ 2nd account w/out enough CP for Green tree Gilded Fingers = 725g per writ, on all 14 chars with same CP setup

ESO+ main account w/near max CP and Gilded Fingers maxed = 785g per writ, on all 20 chars with same CP setup

^^ I tested the above by paying to respec out of Gilded Fingers, set that passive to zero, and confirmed only getting 725 gold. Re-enable that CP again, and back to 785.

So I don't recall what the value was at game launch, but if you have/enabled Gilded Fingers CP to max, it will boost writ gold accordingly. Without = 725, With = 785

Base Amount is 604 gold per writ.

Guilded Fingers is a 10% boost - 604 * 1.1 = 664.4 - rounds to 664 per writ. (This is what my alt account gets with guilded fingers and no ESO+)

Under old +10% ESO+ boost with no guilded fingers it would be the same 664 per writ.

With old +10% ESO+ boost with guilded fingers it was 604 * 1.2 = 724.8 - rounds to 725 per writ. (This is what we were getting previously)

With new "suspected" +20% ESO+ boost with guilded fingers it is 604 * 1.3 = 785.2 - rounds to 785 per writ. (This is what I'm getting on my main account with ESO+)

With new "suspected" +20% ESO+ boost without guilded fingers it is 604 * 1.2 = 724.8 - rounds to 725 per writ. (This is what I can get on my main account if I take points out of guilded fingers)

Guilded fingers has not changed at all, it's behaving as normal.

The only explanation is a change in the amount of the gold bonus of ESO+ (+10% changed to +20%)
