This is going to be a disaster so I guess just sit back and enjoy the ride on the official forums.

I don't know what announcement you guys are referencing but I thought I read that they were removing veteran levels? So they're instead doing the opposite? If so: lol.

It's not as bad as it sounds. VR16 is approx same amount of exp to get to as VR14s and all VR14s will be bumped up to VR16 with the update. If you're VR 10 you'll be bumped up to whatever, VR 12 or something. Exp is supposed to be increased (not clear how much) to make leveling up much faster than before as well. The only people really burned in the state of things are people who dumped hundreds of thousands in gold for getting the most out of VR14 items. It's just really bad optics and not something I think anyone was asking for. Putting into doubt if VR is ever going away hurts the game too, IMO.

Wait, are they giving us 2 free VRs just because they think we're not going to want to get up to those ranks?  Also VR is never going away. It is logically impossible because there is too much content tied to the VR system.

If I had to guess what this is really about is they want to add a new VR15 tier of gear and consumables for the DLC content to make it worthwhile doing, not actually increase the level cap in a realistic sense.

radintorov posted:I don't think I can blame them. I don't think it'll be the end of the world, but it is kind of a kick in the balls currently. Like at the end of the day it will take me a week or two at most to earn two VR levels and anyone not VR14 yet will still hit VR16 the same time they would have hit VR14. I don't care about replacing my gear because its largely all crafted and even at VR16 my Cyrodiil's Light rings will still be more than enough for any new content. Honestly the main draw for me for the game is the quests so any of that is what I've been looking forward to, even Craglorn I've managed to solo most of by this point.

Maybe when everyone quits the game again they'll finally get the memo and make getting rid of VR levels a priority.

Calling it right loving now: -Next big thing is going to be making skill lines "Legendary" a la Skyrim. Reset it to 0, and relevel them for a very, very slight boost in that tree.

Okay, dumb question time. How can I share quests with my buddy in my group? I go to my journal, hit triangle (I'm on PS4), and hit share. I get the message "Sharing with group," but he doesn't see any prompt to take the quest on his end. We he tries it, I don't see it either. Any idea what's going on? EDIT: Must have been the missions we were trying to share or the game was bugging out. I logged back on later last night and the share function worked. monkeyboydc fucked around with this message at 14:06 on Jul 3, 2015 |

Question about the fighter's guild questline - the prismatic weapon, does it scale to your level when you decide on it? i.e. can I leave the guy waiting for my response, go level up, and come back to choose my prismatic weapon later? Also I read somewhere that the fighter's guild questline resets when you finish it? Is this true? Can you run the guild quests multiple times? It kind of sounds too good to be true.

Guild quests and the main quest are done on solo dungeons, so they scale to you, yes.

It scales to your level but it's pretty much decon material. Also no the FG quest line does not reset.

It's like devs have never played an mmo with a group before. I have had one single time (bleakrock undead three runes) when a shared quest actually shared correctly, in that the two members of a party could complete objectives independently. Once.

Summary from yesterdays ESOLive: http://www.reddit.com/r/elderscrollsonline/comments/3bz5g3/full_21th_eso_live_hightlights/ quote:More information about Imperial City coming July 13th and after. Next ESO Live show will be with Brian and Eric duo guesting July 17th. Pretty big change to blocking not regenerating stamina. Getting rid of the taunt timer for tanks should make holding on to a boss easier though without having to try and keep track mentally of how many times you've taunted the boss though. edit: Update http://www.reddit.com/r/elderscrollsonline/comments/3bzewt/update_7_what_we_know_so_far/ quote:Hey guys!

Enjoy, and let me know if I missed anything!

I bought 3,000 crowns. It was $30 Canadian, compared to buying 750 and 1500, and then needing to buy 750 again later would make it $37.97. The 1,400 crowns will probably sit in my inventory for quite a while after my one purchase of Imperial edition upgrades. One thing Zenimax should do to help the hearing impaired is add subtitles to the dialog outside of the quest dialog screens. I know there's an addon that does this, and I use the addon. But it's something that should be included in the game itself.

radintorov posted:Technically there is such a feature already in-game: if you right-click on the "Chat" tab and select option, you can check "NPC" which will have almost all of the NPC dialogue show up in the chat window. you don't have a chat tab on the consoles. The lack of subtitling is loving stupid. Same with not being able to mute individual players easily. Honestly a few quality of life tweaks and some race-specific content would give this game more legs.

I was told khajiit is the worst race to play for a Sorcerer. I should have rolled up a high elf, or if I wanted to go Stamina like I am doing now, I should have been a bosmer. And that at level 20 I should just reroll and save myself some time and grind back up to 20 like I have been doing... Oh wait, I'm not in a rush to hit level 50. I see these 'levelling' guides and they're all "grind here until you hit this level, then go there and grind..." I'm quite enjoying the quests in the game. They're far and away much better than the quests of other games. I actually listen to the dialog rather than clicking through it as fast as possible to get to the end so I don't get why I'm doing a certain thing, which may include pushing some random guy off the tower because it's funny after he said nobody pushes him around anymore. I know most goons play in lizard pact. But I started as a khajiit in the AD because I always start as a Khajiit in every elder scrolls game I play, and I didn't have the explorer's pack at the time. I might not have enjoyed the game after buying it, after all. But I'm having a huge blast running after enemies with my greatsword now and then uppercutting them, then making them explode with my mage's blast while they're on the ground... Tons of fun. I hardly bring out my bow anymore because it's just so fun running around like a complete idiot doing what I'm doing. Even during one of those anchors one of the people sent me a tell after going "Why the hell are you running around like that as a sorcerer? Reroll as a high elf and use destruction like the rest." My answer? "Because it's fun as hell."

I wouldn't recommend anyone to grind until they've actually done the quests honestly. I've been grinding with my alts but that's actually because I want to save them for the road doing another just full on quest playthrough and didn't want to sour myself on them by doing them three times in a row after taking my main through all the quests in the game.

Nothing is more true than that tooltip that says just pick a direction and go. I had hundreds of hours (if not more) in skyrim and the whole time I thought it was a sandbox game, didn't even realize there as a story line to follow until months later when a buddy and I were talking about it. I do the same here and i have no regrets, and couldn't imagine sitting in an area hacking things over and over. If only they could inject some steroids into the grouping and multiplayer component this might actually rise to the level of an mmo, and not an online item management simulator.
