    It's been said before but I'll say it again..there are a cornucopia of healers and people wanting to heal in this game. I don't think I've ever seen an mmo with this many healers this early... ever. Plus adventures are far easier than dungeons so people seem to be mostly sticking to those since...

    Considering they aren't a public company, they don't ever have to release figures. They can keep that dirty little secret all to themselves with no nosy stockholders or dirty poopsocking bloggers finding out about it. The few who ever see those numbers will be as tight-lipped as the Trion folks...

    Farside was the first place I really got my head handed to me in places. Those fucking flying jellyfish hurt my widdle Esper something bad. The plus side was the jumping. That was insanely fun and the type of mindless goofing around that more games need.

    Galway jobs blow with 300 gone at online gaming firm Dammit Tuco. When Zenimax had you in for the big meet, you weresupposedto tell them to 'Get rid of people not being able to see names over heads'... not "Head overseas and get rid of people whatever their names".

    Best part of the game so far for me... riding the Hoverboard on the moon. That getting aggro, ramping up speed on a jutting rock and launching double jumps over ravines is pretty fantastic. I think I stopped killing mobs for about half an hour just to do that.

    That's what I described. When the 'alert' on their heads go off, that's my maximum range. Sometimes if you try to get them to the very tip of the TK alley, the distance is off a bit and you will miss if you spin up your blades and they get wasted. It's not aggro yet to let them know you're...

    Not sure if this helps or not, been using this rotation for awhile. Only thing I added since I made this was a second interrupt armor (from the DPS tree), but still rolling right along. I'm sure there are more other efficient builds but I'll wait til endgame for that. At 33 and the leveling...

    You'll find that pretty soon if you're rotating your points correctly, that mob won't hold any hate at all beyond 2 seconds. If you're fighting high mobs, not only will that pet die fast but you'll pull hate if it doesn't. I found Geist useful only about two levels then took it off as I was...

    Try carrying Blade Dance instead. You get two PP's instead of Spectral Form's one, increased speed of movement while you're doing it easily avoiding most of their casts, and just whirl around mobs doing about the same dmg as Restraint. I don't think I've even unlocked Spectral Form. Seems...

    23 and still foot-running. Not because I can't afford it (40g) but because my gathering would become instantly irritating because jumping on/off mounts to get them drives me nuts. The only time I'd want to have a mount is for long distances to a camp, but between the sheer amount of quests...

    Don't take this the wrong way as an attack but, this is extremely odd coming from you because you're such a huge TESO fan. I don't ever recall you saying you didn't like this style of skill selection during the months you've commented but it couldn't have been more than three if you did. How...

    This may be the first game I've seen where healers are just as plentiful as the dps. Heals are everywhere. Tanks, are not.

    Yeah, it's no jack. It was a weird time though. It's this: Network Error: Unable to connect: 23115 Confusing because this game has given me more different 'error' codes than any I've seen. Gotta love first day launches.

    Played one hour after launch. Couldn't get on Stormtalon so went to Caretaker. Had no problems at all on that server. So they take the system down for 15 minutes, I come back... says two hour queue. Played 4 games of Heartstone and then my character shows up, ready to go. Log in...

    I like the rebuttal/reality: I remember in WAR my Marauder was woeful, and people/devs kept saying "Yeah, we're going to make some adjustments". Kept waiting. Kept waiting. Finally rolled to Magus because I heard they were going to fix that 'first'. 0/2 in that game. Going to skip all that...

    Not even halfway in there. For about 20 of those 30 days, all I did was grind SPs and gear for crafting in PvELand. I figured they would be more valuable so didn't seem to make a lot of sense going in there with only a few skills that early.

    I guess an hour isn't bad considering everyone playing gets one free townie every 30 minutes. Still, I miss the good old days of 30 minute instant travel porting to anywhere, or even unlimited porting for certain classes. I don't know why games don't stick that onto the classes people hate...

    So ESO boils down to "Needincentivesto play it"? Huh. Usually fun is the biggest incentive around for most players. I mean, those things you listed are needed, but they don't have anything to do withactualfun if you read your list carefully. They are more along the lines of quality of life...

    Fuck this choice. I did all that Soccer Mom porting in Aion/EQ2, etc. Done with that. "You don't have to run over there. Just wait and Jack will run over there and port everyone." The only way this even seems remotely worth it for me is if they got special travel no one else could get...

    It's Free To Play. You have no excuse to not get into it. If you don't like it in a few weeks, walk away guilt-free. I never understand why people ask this about F2P games or even the cheap B2P ones.

    It's a designed minigame. I had six alts, each one had the specialty mats for each discipline (1 for enchanting, 1 for smithing, 1 for cooking, etc). Then I would leave all the common items they used like crafting style stones in the main bank . The goal is to see which alt you can fill...

    Those DAoC days of organized, real PvP are over I think. I said this about TESO. The industry has gotten it wrong going forward. Unless the game is fully dedicated to PvP from the start and PvE only as lore filler, those games are just going to keep doing what you've seen; domination...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Well none of the ones I listed took the PvP seriously. The PvE was the main point of the mmos and the PvP was just something for the PvEers to do when they got bored. Having 'some form of PvP' isn't really saying much for the industry thus far. LOTRO didn't put much effort into the...

    That's what I mean. ESO had itwhenthey launched. Those others had to give some kind of explanations once they released it afterwards which I guess is understandable, since like with TOR it was a few months after release before they dropped theirs. Those playerbases had an excuse on not knowing...

    I'm not arguing the subjective nature of 'good content', 'fun content', 'boring content'. I didn't even mention that as a hang-up. There's no one size-fits all for that. I'm talking about HOW the content was designed; purely (other than dungeons and those haphazard rifts) for single-player...

    This just goes back to what was wrong for making an ES mmo in the first place imo. Those lots of whines you say are there are coming from the ES purists who Zenimax wanted in the game as the base pop from the start. You know, the same people who wanted a fantastic single player experience with...
