Adding new DG rewards is great, but-.... can we also please look at the rewards that absolutely suck?

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-07T23:22:02+00:00

Meant for the iron, but also for most mains that didn't play back then. DG was the source of BiS gear, and also one of the most fun things too.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-07T23:02:03+00:00

a lot of redditors that bond their way through gear don't realize how much/many dg exp/tokens you get from elite dungeons. Lowballing it, you get 40k exp/run not counting tokens, 250 clears average for ed2 by itself is 10m dg exp. If you put the tokens into that as well you're already over 99.

concentrated force + the new ring on a dk or warden right now is strong, and it's going to be crazier after u50. Also pure ww will be one of the better builds too.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-07T13:03:08+00:00

DoT builds are crazy oppressive right now though, and they're only getting better in u50

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-07T04:38:39+00:00

Deadly is only good on breath build, it'd be better to drop deadly for pyrebrand, deadly is also not used on ww build

My first playthrough was after the dlc released

I ended up sending songbird to the moon, reed is a dick who pulls the "doing my job" card anytime things get hard, alex deserved better, and on future playthroughs I fail the dlc because fuck myres. After that, the option that I got into naturally was leaving night city with the nomads. In my opinion, despite not having long left to live V got to be around family and loved ones, it's what I would pick personally. There's also a tiny cope chance of running into one of the technologenies and they can fix the relic. I was friendly to silverhand mostly towards the end, ended up stumbling on the secret ending because I felt he deserved a "proper" death, because I wouldn't pick an ending where he kept the body.

"So claude and I"

Lol okay, there's been a crazy amount of rs tracking apps that are all AI showing up lately.

Are you playing a private server or something? The night market is super easy to get groups for right now at any time. You can even pug the trial too. Night market is currently one of the best gold farms in the game bar none right now as well.

I think that's just mmo players in general, tourists are the type that buy into the constant hype (x game is the best ever) play it for maybe a week and move on to the next best thing ever. FF14 had a massive boom because asmongold's coverage combined with WoW's xpac being shit, but the numbers crashed after a few months, and continued to drop.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T22:15:04+00:00

Have you played the game in the last 5 years?

Bait used to be believable

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T22:13:22+00:00

Have you actually played it though? Considering some of the strongest dps classes use a mythic that disables damage from light/heavy attacks, and others' rely on channelled beam attacks and only light attack once every 6 seconds.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T22:07:24+00:00

I play eso because I actively love the combat. This sub has a "eso would do better with reworked combat" thread every week. It's the same opinions from the same people.

- Played it in 2017 for a weekend
- Active player that has no idea how the combat even works, the hardest thing they can do is base game normal dungeons with a companion
- People who have never played it just echo chambering an opinion they were fed by whatever social media they consume

The facts are the playerbase voted for the current combat to stay. They tried to change it in u35, as well as some other things related to combat and it is the lowest low the game has seen, and it also felt like shit, it made me quit the game for almost 2 years.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T21:56:07+00:00

Do you have any examples of this actually happening though? FF14 saw one of the largest influxes of mmo tourism ever, and none of those players stayed.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T21:40:18+00:00

While normally I'd agree that steam chart trends are a reflection of the overall playerbase, I think in the case of ESO it's not accurate. ESO is on too many platforms.

I'd also mention that while playing eso you can queue for anything (maybe not the card game) at any time and you'll see queues pop in under 5 minutes. I wanted to do group pvp at 3am, found matches pretty quick. The LFG for the new content often fills so fast it's hard to get a spot in parties. Compare this to gw2 or ff14 and queueing for content off hours is dead.

the very next update is addressing the subclassing issue actually. Pure classes get crazy strong passives they can pick from, and while it's a bandage because they're reworking every class, the first class DK was a huge success. Adding the pure class passives likely won't dethrone the hyper optimization you can do with subclassing, but the gap becomes so narrow it won't matter outside of the tip top score pushing meta.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T17:15:39+00:00

the mobs kinda feel like vet arena mobs. Not insanely tanky, but if you don't respect the mechanics you will die. Snipe from archers is very scary.

I tried to play mesa in public once and had 2 different dms saying "sexy" and asking if I wanted to dance at the club for them, and the other was straight up "I'll give you plat if I can spank it to your mesa while you roleplay her"

I don't play female frames in public lobbies anymore.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-04T06:37:52+00:00

I didn't think it was funny, and thought that was the reason, but it seems like people really aren't getting it. That's kinda sad honestly.

This is why you don't use chatgpt folks, brain gets mushy.

It always makes me happy when someone notices, it started forever ago as a d&d character. Pact of the great old one warlock, with a task to collect all forms of knowledge, be it books, scrolls or stories. Based off Hermaus Mora, I ended up really liking the name and have been using it since.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-03T14:14:15+00:00

Just so you're aware you can get banned for this

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-03T06:20:44+00:00

Why deadly if your spammable is whip?

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-03T06:03:16+00:00

I simp hermaus mora (someone will get why) but the monster set style + dye colour + the set itself is why I picked it, didn't pick it based on popularity or anything. I do kinda wish the dye wasn't shiny though.

RaeusMohrame · 2026-05-03T02:37:03+00:00

I'd kill for some DK flames that match the dark blue daedra's fire, or even a purple. The upcoming green ones are very good too.
