PTS Patch Notes v4.0.1

DRAGON_KILLER_HUNTER · April 2018

"Strife: The animation from this ability and its morphs now plays faster, which should make it easier to weave with Light Attacks."

Very nice

Now just revert the cost increase

ak_pvp · April 2018

JFC guys. For as long as ever the first week has been game breaky bug fixes.

When can we expect a character copy in EU servers? Why aren't they done at the same time as NA?

EU character copy will be in 2 weeks (on May 7).

Thanks for the update

Magicka Wardens remain the same below par level for now. Hopefully something next week...

Can't say I'm surprised. What a joke. Thanks for nothing ZOS. Guess I'll level a nightblade to gank people now.

The same for me. Rollerblade or StreakSorc to win.

to win what? u like to gank? for sure run a stamblade or overloadsorc. You like to do something else than gank dont run stamblade.

Guys, don't forget as stated in the very first paragraph, you'll begin seeing some balance adjustments next week at the earliest. This patch is mainly bug fixes.

You might want to make this its own announcement and sticky it to the top of the PTS forum

Are you insinuating stamblade is bad in cyrodiil? What game are you playing?

BigBadVolk · April 2018

Lost in Translation: Fixed an issue that kept the visual effects from displaying properly during the major confrontation of the quest (no spoilers!).

SPOILLLLERSS

Strife: The animation from this ability and its morphs now plays faster, which should make it easier to weave with Light Attacks.

So the gods have heard our pleas finally!

xaraan · April 2018

Guild

Fighters Guild

Silver Leash (Silver Bolts morph): Fixed an issue where dodging the projectile from this morph would cause it to visually float in midair.

I was sure I sent in a bug report for the other issue on this, but no fix mentioned - it continues to pull even with CC immunity. Didn't test yet this week to see if fixed and forgot to mention, but last week you could just keep backing up and silver leash pulling a mob to you over and over until it was dead.

rabidmyers · April 2018

the healthy offering skill is buggy, animation gets caught to where it looks like ur channeling the ability

JohnStorm · April 2018

When can we expect the barswap bugs of the special weapons (master, maelstrom, asylum) to be fixed? Like the one for the asylum staff where if you barswap animation cancel force pulse, the stacks get consumed but the status effects are not applied...

Did i miss it @ZOS_GinaBruno is infused jewelry going to be fixed next week?

This is not good either, some of these traits seem a bit OP, so taking weeks off of testing is not the best idea. Was really hoping this would be fixed today.

DisgracefulMind · April 2018

Please fix the bug with infused jewelry trait next patch. It's infuriating not being able to test properly.

xaraan · April 2018

Also, did I miss it? Or was there a fix for Rapid Man. dismounting you and weapon swapping dismounting you?

Manzarken · April 2018

I am looking forward to testing the new strife animation!

Tempestwrath · April 2018

This was just a bugfixing patch. Hopefully they adjust 2H weapon damage in the balance patch next week.

For those not in the know or haven't been following the threads,on the current PTS 2H light attacks deal the least damage per swing of any weapon attack in the game, stamina or magicka, but still swing at nearly half the rate of Dual Wield, effectively making an already underpowered skill line (except for just a couple skills in PVP) totally unviable.

Sustained 2H light attack DPS is 40% less than DW, and heavy attacks are even worse on otherwise identical builds. Even an Empowered swing after a Wrecking Blow barely breaks par with an unempowered DW swing.

Own · April 2018

Good QoL stuff

Vladdermuis · April 2018

I mightve read over it, and sorry if i did but...Did not see anything about rapid maneuver would dismount you, just like barswapping would.

_Ahala_ · April 2018

Staying optimistic for magden pvp and pve dps buffs... please don’t prove me wrong with 4.0.2

jcaceresw · April 2018

So no removal of the Pyandonean motif pieces from the crown crates? What a disappointment. You are losing loyal players (and their money) because of that.

Hyzock · April 2018

This is gonna be another week of PTS wasted if the infused jewelry trait isn't fixed.

IARTOI · April 2018

@ZOS_GinaBruno Please fix the Warden's Animal Companion Ultimate. Sometimes enemy can see the bear even while in sneak so that cause detection by enemy. Bring leap or charge animation to bear for make it better ultimate completely useless.

usmcjdking · April 2018

WW light attack fix? Hello?

Neoauspex · April 2018

I hope next week you fix the bug where Templars aren't as good as other classes

Silver_Strider · April 2018

Please ZOS, Please.

Make Debilitate a Healer Morph. It doesn't matter that it refunds the full cost if you kill the enemy, it's still a garbage skill because it doesn't improve your DPS as much as Crippling Blast does on single targets and even in AoE situations, WoE+Path+Sap will kill everything much quicker without having to throw Debilitate to try and get a "free" DoT in. Let it place Minor Lifesteal on the target so that the ability is actually of use to people.

Also, please fix the animation on Malevolent Offering. It locks up your character in its animation, unable to cast any other ability until you dodge and it's really annoying.

[*]Fixed a rare issue where holding down the Heavy Attack button would not cause you to perform a Heavy Attack.

It's not that rare. It's on live as for as long as i can remember.

MehrunesFlagon · April 2018

Any indication of being able to hide shoulders pieces? Seems like it would be really easy to put in.

ZOS_GinaBruno · April 2018

Thanks for all the pings on additional reported bugs, everyone. We'll make sure these are documented. Also, just got word the Daily Login Rewards system will be enabled later this week - not today.

this ^

just posted on this thread about the malevolent offering and it's morphs locking you up to where it looks like ur channeling it, annoying, and the minor life steal on debilitate is a very nice idea. also i would like to see some kind of synergy added to refreshing path aswell since we do not have much utlity. #NBHealerfor2years

The Character Template now includes the Psijic Order skill line fully unlocked.

Does this mean it's no longer possible to test the Psijic Order levelling using a template, and it'll have to be a new Lvl 3 character? What about the questline?

Strider__Roshin · April 2018

Overland bosses nerfed already

Well at least it was fun while it lasted.
