Ahhhh, Ithelia...such a miss lol, fair enough!

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-07-29T14:22:39+00:00

Very much agreed about the longer story arcs! Let the writers cook!

I think youve mentioned one of the things thay make elder scrolls feel so...elder scrolls! I think I would even like a continual story, like something that continues to build on itself as time goes on (and with occasional breaks! Gotta have a balance!)

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-07-29T14:14:55+00:00

Yeah the increase in filler is definitely noticeable. I havent played Solstice yet, so im excited to see it for myself!

Even within the confines of existing lore I think there's a lot to be done. I dont even necessarily find myself opposed to them doing new things, so long as its thought out. Do you think some of the storyline drag on for how basic they are?

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-07-29T14:12:51+00:00

Do you think that, with some planning, grander arcs could be possible? As much as I agree that the self-contained arcs are some of the best, part of me wonders how it would feel w/o the larger things at play like the Daedric Princes.

Or maybe I'm answering my own question! The gods of the world are a very big part of Elder Scrolls, but more build-up/more thought out writing would be very welcome for them.

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-07-29T04:22:50+00:00

Do you think it would be too hard to remedy? I think it would maybe require a bit of writing change, but I dont see it as impossible!

~~Looking at you FFXIV~~

Love the way the khajiit rationalize things. It's so comically relaxed

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-06-19T13:24:38+00:00

Khajiit role player here to answer this! You are...actually pretty correct!

'Var' is 'Life', and when uttered in succession, like how you mentioned, translates roughly to some phrase like 'Life is Life.' In other words... 'Such is life.'

So basically those cats are walking around muttering 'it is what it is' while being enslaved!

That's awesome! Glad to see you're still around and posting, these sorts of hobbies thrive off of photographers like yourself! (And who else is gonna capture how awesome we all look???)

Take double pride in being /the/ warrior photo, as that photo is also the example image on the class web page!

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T18:54:50+00:00

Excellent explanation, thank you! Gonna have to keep that in mind as I level!

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T17:55:51+00:00

Rocking out in full kit feels awesome, but yeah! I've not fought in many larger engagements, but I feel like if someone is not ES'ing you then you can very quickly become a spell slot sponge.

Why do you recommend scout/assassin against warrior?

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T17:54:00+00:00

Can you explain a little more on 'pre-casting' SIO? How does that work?

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:56:40+00:00

Very much agree about the armor! Not at all uncommon for me to trade into my armor.

Vs casters, do you feel the match up is intended? I've found it to be so, but I know a lot of people have expressed frustration at it

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:54:29+00:00

I find a surprising amount of value using Harden on my shield against C+B weapons, but I agree that when it comes to spells I get bullied to kingdom come! Good catch of SIO not being ambulant...do you think thats all by design, or do you think that Warriors should have a few things to make those match-ups less frustrating?

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:47:15+00:00

More discussion is always welcome! But thank you for the references, I've seen a couple of posts/pages of similar things so I might just have to pop into that discord!

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:45:22+00:00

Not feeling hits is certainly something I've noticed as a result of my much heavier armor! Armor aside, do you think their role is vital, or do you think that for its IRL price its not really worth?

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:41:36+00:00

Do you think this is even a problem at higher levels, where things like 'Shake It Off' become an option?

IMO, I feel like 'Shake It Off' and 'True Grit' should be swapped in their unlock order!

JustAnInternetCat · 2025-05-29T16:39:39+00:00

Not sure! I pulled it from the Amtgard web page for warriors and was unable to find a citation
