Honestly just wish they would stop making so many changes and just focus on performance and overall functionality..the game feels like its crumbling as we play it.
NB should not be nerfed because other players are ignoring a mechanic. Just make the detection skills a toggle with a small movement speed reduction. PS the 10% buff to pve is cool.
But essentially, you are forcing other classes to waste a skill slot just so they can counter one of your skill. Can you think of any other skill that does that? Essentially perma locking a skill slot on your opponents skill bar
@@cabbagedestroyer1693 yes, burst heal shield combo basically requires an execution skill. Any skill that buffs armor requires an armor pen skill. These are accepted counter systems. Just make the detection skills more viable.
@ski364 that's not the problem. The problem is that the stealth is also a heal or a burst as well on top of being a good passive buff. While the detection are buffs only that provide nothing else.
@@cabbagedestroyer1693 that's why I am advocating for buffing the detection skills. Add more to them, don't take away. Or add detection to other skills. Detection while blocking would be cool too
Thanks for the summary. I want to reflect on one point only. There is no long term vision regarding balance changes. They have no clue since 1T. 😅 Or they abandon it halfway to implement something new to keep a portion of the playerbase.
Thanks for the comment. Just to clarify: there's a section in the patch notes which brings up the long-term plan specifically, so it's not just my copium you're hearing in the video 😂. But yeah, we'll see where it goes...
@@NinjaPulls my bad 😅 eso players rarely read the patch notes. I just read the parts that I needed. I still not understand the templar change though. Make it an aoe taunt, that way it would be useful and unique. But this pointless. No right minded tank will use it, since I will still need Pierce armor and/or a ranged taunt.
You know, while they are messing around with shadow cloak, Why didn't they fix dark cloak? That skill does not reward you having high health. You can have over 40000 health. And it still heals very poorly when compared. Especially to other health based healing skills. The cloak change Won't stop Perma cloaking either. Which is what most people that are happy about. The change are voicing as the. Reason that they're happy, but if it was a regular casable skill as it is now with a fifty percent cost increase with repetitive use, then it would actually help to prevent perma cloaking
My concern with the new grimoire is that buffing a specific damage type will encourage every DD running the same class even more. We are only half way out of the Arcanist only phase.
@@tristan364oakensorc = big damage as for the arcanists being everywhere, only in score-pushing groups. the ideal dps composition is 1 dk, 1 necro and the rest are arcanists. both the dk and necro are there only as group buffs.
As a nb main, I'm glad to see the cloak change. The class is too cheap and people get corralled into one play style. They wanna nerf it, then i expect to see them make nb more viable outside of that style.
Just fix the freaking bugs already and the performance issues. No one is asking for these changes... The coding is so bad that they said they were going to recode the entire game a couple of years ago and now if you ask for an update on it in the forums you get banned for a while. It's ridiculous.
Why they nerf pyreband was finally happy with a new set that is not pillar of nirn and ageis caller for some class flavour in PVE and Zos has to take away my fun again. Can they just stop nerfing things and take my fun away!
How much longer until PTS goes live (i.e. how many more rounds of PTS will there be with potentially more changes...before we see what's actually going live)?
There will be 5 rounds of PTS patch notes before it goes live on Oct 28. Typically we get very minor changes in Week 2 (coming this Monday) and Week 5. If any significant adjustments occur, they tend to be in Week 3 and sometimes 4. If that happens, you'll hear about it here! Hope that helps.
Yep, theyve been doing it since 2016, let's you farm it, you gold it out, an update happens and they gut every set and release a new OP one rinse and repeat until you realize it and quit
Haha yeah sorry about that - I try to keep these overviews as short as possible. We did preview both new companions on stream, and would be happy to do it again if you ask in chat! Both look pretty cool.
It’s cuz unless your fishing or looting bins there useless you can have the best set up for them and they still die after 20 secs imagine spending 100k-200k and it still not helping you
@@valleysavage4909 I play a healer and have Azandar specced as a tank. He's quite definitely NOT useless and doesn't die after 20 seconds. Isobel is an excellent tank, too, but I like Azandar better. Like me, he likes tea.
@@MarinaMichaels 💀this is irrelevant, if they died while your healer then your not really a healer 💀I’d expect a healer to you know heal im talking about no healing from the player the expected use is while you dps
And yes they die within a min of fighting a world boss which is the only real use any other content they are completely unnecessary and this is coming from a player with 5k hours and 80% of all content in the game I have the fractured glory and more then half the dungeon trifecta even a few trial trifectas
I was already so annoyed that they are attacking my NB main, that it took nearly a week to notice that they are also making my Arcanist shittier as a solo toon. Yay.
@@caskaptein9889 considering it will no longer crit it’s already at minimum a 50%nerf so I think the set will lose 70% of it’s actual dps considering other nerfs, probably a stackinbank set now
Wish they will at least let it crit in PVE leave PVE alone. Was finally happy to see some nice class flavour set for PVE and not have to use pillar of nirn or ageis caller, then zos has to take my fun away.
Is it the first true toggle skill in the game? And do you stay invis after using abilities as long as it is toggled on? If the magicka sustain was lowered, then I can see it being an ok skill, actually. We also should introduce more toggle skills to the game imo as opposed to passive buffs.
Blood Frenzy (Vampire skill line) is a toggle that has existed since Greymoor. But you're right it's a pretty rare thing. I haven't had the chance to play around with the new Shadowy Disguise much yet (PvP is always a bit awkward on PTS) but there'll definitely be more on this.
My question here, why don't they have segmented pvp. Like below 50 and CP, but more. My suggestion is (keep in mind I am newer player at CP450). Below 50, CP 1-160, CP 161- 1500, CP 1501- 3600. Hard to get into pvp more and actually learn if you have one or two players minimum each match that kills everyone else before your FPS even picks up anything. Hard to stay motivated to build skill level and gear to PVP. Not sure if this is just me because I am just starting out how to learn mechanics and all. It really does not make sense to me with how the battlegrounds is set up. Looking forward to how two team version will work out. Never played PVP in an MMO before that has their level range set up like ESO and I can't understand any benefits from it. Besides if the player base is too low, for them to keep que time down.
There is 0 benefits to splitting the pvp community up even further than its low numbers. If you want to get good at pvp stop blaming CP differences and watch guides and go pvp. They even have no cp campaigns to play in for people who don't want to
@@vorkavaskov1243 It's true there is a harsh curve to PvP in this game and it can be frustrating but we all do need to learn and get better if we want to keep playing PvP consistently but he DOES have a point in that there are alot of passive benefits with higher CP though.
If ZOS did that they’d have to also halve the tick rate or reduce the damage per tick, making Necro rotations much less interesting. Be careful what you wish for!
I have to say there is nothing exciting with these new updates as of late very low impact really boring they need to release some exciting powerfully sets to grind or change up the metta once in a while. it's been stale for a while.
Yeah I agree the meta does need to shift now and then, especially for PvP. But there are also many PvErs who are loving the relative stability we’ve had over the last year. It’s kinda frustrating when the meta shifts wildly every 3-6 months.
Short and concise info. You are more and more becoming my go to channel for ESO updates. 👍

They just need to give it the streak treatments. But a step in the right direction
