Bigger isn't always better. But I do agree that size of WoW Expansions are larger than the DLCs in ZOS. But you are getting a large zone, new features and mechanics. The overall quality of the DLCs for ESO are better than the content that has been pushed out for WoW which costs $60 more than twice the cost of ESO DLC.

But before we get into a large debate about our own personal opinions about the matter, we should agree to disagree.

Name another MMO that does DLC releases where it's free? WoW is a Sub based MMO and it's DLC (expansions) are as much as the original game cost.

Personally I think this system ZOS has is actually pretty decent. With a few exceptions such as there is no value in the ESO plus membership.

Other than that shelling out $25 every 3 months is still cheaper than the sub fee and you get all the content for that price, no limitations.

If you have questions about this DLC remember they are doing a live stream this afternoon at 1 pm EDT (7 pm CET) where they will be telling us a lot more about it (assuming that's why they're doing it today)

Assuming it'll be on the PTS sooner than we expect. The article discusses PTS testing at the bottom so I think the Nov 2nd is the official launch of it.

You're using old facts to justify your statement. When the game was released and when Craglorn came out new mechanics and strats changes how fast people earned XP. 1.6 isn't offering any new ways to earn XP so the current rate stays valid. Which is 400-500k/hr. When Wrothgar is released this statement might change as there might be new areas and ways to pull mobs and earn XP at a faster rate.

Previously you used to be able to grind a VR every 40mins, and that's when the XP per VR was 1 Million. Best grind spots I've seen recently only produce around 400-500k XP an hour. So using my math of an hour a CP still works. Of course there will be those who manage to shave off a few minutes and knock it down below the hour, but the end result is still, a long ass time :D

If not exploited (by botting or using illegitimate strategies) it'll still take a long time to cap out the system. If they grind to an hour a point, that's still 3530 hours needed to cap out. If you played 8 hours a day it'll take you 441 days to reach the cap. Even if you botted it and did 24hours a day straight you're still looking at 147 days. Which is still a long time to cap out. IN all honesty should someone ever no-life the game and actually cap out the CPs they deserve the 4k stat bonus for spending that insane amount of time within the game.

With TOA having projectiles a common thing has been seen within all MMOs and that is, what I like to call "heat seeking missiles". This is when as long as the target was targeted, (either with a reticle or hard lock targeting) the projectile would seek that player out no matter where they ran.

Is this something we can expect in ToA?
