[Megathread] Elder Scrolls Online

Restoring the Guardians quest is bugged. Really annoying as it's a major quest line in the zone.

Can't summon Blaze / Ragebringer. Nothing to interact with. Logging out for the night. Will try tomorrow.

I was able to get past that part by logging in and out a bunch, but the next step, after defeating the big boss guy, is when the NPC took a dive off the world to get away from me.

Anybody who thought that an Elder Scrolls game would be bug free is living in a fantasy land. Just imagine if it was the fabled Fallout MMO. The amount of bitching about bugs would be 10x worse.

I'm not one of those people who just give them a pass when they sell something for money and it's broken. I know it's the accepted thing nowadays, but I'm not cool with it. You sell me something it better work.

Havn't had any major issues. One desync (relogged), one NPC that wouldn't talk to me (relogged), and the Blood assassin quest? Went to the end of the pier box not the boats, no problem.

Taking my time with the game, exploring and crafting. I am about 2 levels above content, currently lvl 8 and on the Orc island. Guess I shouldn't be too concern with the incredible slow rate that crafting seems to be leveling? Barely a nudge with every craft I make.

My friend is having this problem that we can't seem to fix. He's getting these hard lag spikes that last for a few seconds. I've tried looking around on google a little bit, but I can't really find anything. He's done all the "fixes" that we've been able to find. He's changed 'SET RequestedNumThreads “-1″' to 0 instead of -1, he's tried closing the launcher, and he's tried changing the priority of the game process in the task manager.

I've tried looking for more solutions to attempt to fix it, but those 3 things I listed are the only things I'm seeing. The fixes work for some people, but not all apparently...

I know it's not his computer. It's just as good as mine is and I'm playing it fine with 40-60 fps every where.

So... what's the problem you're trying to solve?

Any chance of starting a share build thread? I have been going crazy trying to figure how to build a bow focused DPS build :/ As far as I can tell sorcerer, nightblade and templar all have 28m range...From here I get confused...

Question is: what series og question should I ask to narrow down my choice of class and race?

rofl sorry, I'm at work so I forgot to mention that.

Sad to hear some people are still seeing the issues with bugged quests that were reported many times during the beta.

If it follows the same pattern as before, the longer the server is up, the more bugged phases of any given quest you will see. That in turn makes relogging to try to get an "not bugged" phase less likely, as fewer new, "not bugged" phases are being created to cater for the game population.

Impossible to say if Zenimax knew about this and went ahead with release anyway or if they thought they had it fixed. They certainly mentioned in 1 set of release notes that they had fixed issues affecting a large number of quests.

I hope Zenimax get on this fast and get it fixed. I'm a huge fan of the game and while bugs can be expected, player frustration levels will rise rapidly at such an annoying glitch.

Aaaaaand I just rage quitted after dying 5 times in a row at that Doshia boss.

I'm supposed to kill those fucking orbs but she spawns like 500000 of them right on top of her fucking head, I die in 5 seconds (despite the fact that I'm level 9, full heavy armor and a lot of HP) and she just keeps healing herself.

I got her down to maybe 10% on my 4th attempt, then before I knew it she was back at full health and I died a few seconds later.

There are 4 orbs that come at her at any give time, killing them heals you. If the orbs get to her, it heals her. Sometimes it is harder to get all the orbs if you are melee but at level 9 you should have some melee AoE abilities.

Then you are a member of a rare elite allowed to play on a bug free instance server. Many of us do not seem that lucky. Zone chat is filled with nothing but bugged quest complaints and gold sellers. Ah well, so long as it gets fixed in the next day or two I don't really mind. But currently my main character is stuck in the aforementioned solo instance where the quest NPC fell through the world.

Have you tried deleting the quest and starting over? I remember in beta, it happened to me a couple times, in those Guild quests, that take part in solo instances. I had to redo them a couple times, to get it to work properly (also the "costume" quests gave me problems during beta and managed to solve it this way).

I am level 15 and my only bugged quest so far is the Assasins quest that you mentioned. I went away, relogged and it fixed it. The best way to fix the bugged quests is to go away from the quest area, and then relog.

I did not, because the in game help has articles about how deleting the quest does not reset it.

Now that I see all the complaints about the same old bugged quests related to the phasing/instancing technology I'm glad I waited and didn't give in to the temptation to buy on release. It must be a really nasty bug or even design oversight if they still didn't fix it even if it was the most widely and loudly reported bug during the last few beta weekends.

Will do just as I did with Skyrim, give it time for things to get sorted out and then eventually "pull the trigger". To everyone who is playing the game now, thanks for testing things so they get fixed for me!

Just adding that the orbs only spawn, after she does that skill where you get trapped. So you get a warning when those will come. Also, they come from all 4 corners of the room, giving you plently of time to work it out. The orbs heal you but dont restore any other resource.

Then you don't know anything about Elder Scrolls, Fallout, or Bethesda. If you did, you wouldn't have bothered buying the game. Do your research. Nearly all of their games are usually bugged to shit. In many instances, the bugs never get fixed.

Most of the bugs I encountered during beta were fixed except the Bloodthorn Assassins quest in Daggerfall. These things really don't need fixing, within two weeks when the starter areas don't have as many people, most will have no issues. I encountered that and the Guardians talking in German, everything else was smooth sailing.

It's acceptable to have bugs when you create great games such as fallout/ nv / skyrim...

I wonder when the first hotfixes will come.

Also I invested two points into hirelings, when will they send me stuff? The first was invested yesterday (still nothing) the other today (still nothing)

Am I sensing sarcasm?
