Today, The Elder Scroll Online needs you!
La update 5 has just been implemented on the PTS server. The latter adds, among other things, craft quests, the werewolf overhaul, the reworking of certain areas of the game, new facial animations and a new dungeon in veteran mode.
In order to get a clear idea of what is going or not going well, Zenimax is looking forward to your feedback and suggestions compared to update 5. You can do it directly on the official forum. Zenimax has thought of everything and has published a list of all the new features to test.
Suggested tests
- Go to the City of Ashes in Veteran mode using the corresponding archetype or your highest level character from the North American megaserver. Let us know if you want to stream your performances, so we can watch!
- Try out the new facial animations and use / bug in-game to report any desynchronization between sound and mouth movements, or any missing animation. Collect 10 Dwemer Scrap Items and refine the ingredients.
- Remember to include the NPC's name, location, and dialogue when submitting a / bug.
- Complete the crafting tutorial with a new character, or skip the tutorial and earn certification with an already experienced character.
- If you have a character good at crafting, check out the new crafting orders and inspection reports.
- Explore the larger lairs of Alik'r, Estemarche and Malabal Tor.
- Use an archetype to create a character that relies heavily on Stamina (or alternatively use a character from the North American Megaserver if you already have one!) And experiment with upgrades to stamina skills.
- Use any archetype at your disposal to create a character that can transform into a werewolf then try the werewolf skill upgrades.
- Enable chat bubbles in the Settings menu and let us know what you think!
- Create a Veteran rank 12 character using the corresponding archetype and then play normally to test the changes we've made to how a Veteran character receives XP.
- Use the Group Finder to create a group both inside and outside of a dungeon, and make sure that all members of that newly formed group are no more than 5 levels away.
- Try to make the Lord of Shenanigans even if you already have! We recently fixed some issues, so it's not as frustrating to complete anymore and we would love to hear your feedback on these changes.
- Create a level 45 character using the “Indomitable” archetype then open the message that directs you to the Enclave of the Indomitable and start performing the Oaths.
