The fantasy MMO The Elder Scrolls Online takes a reward system from the competitor WildStar in its dungeons.
Currently, a guild summit is taking place at Zenimax. 20 representatives from guilds and communities have been invited to the headquarters to present to those who are really interested what changes are coming to The Elder Scrolls Online. With what ideas they are playing, what they envision. Zenimax is eager to hear the fans’ reactions and wants to involve them earlier in the future process. One of the highlights of the first day: In the daily dungeons that will come with Update 5, they are borrowing something from the competitor WildStar.
This will make it possible to complete the daily dungeons with different outcomes: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. WildStar has a similar system, which caused some problems in the meantime.
To achieve a Bronze run, in The Elder Scrolls Online, for example, only the three main bosses of a dungeon would need to be defeated, for a silver key additionally the mini-bosses. For the golden key, it could then be timed, additional conditions would need to be met. Depending on how the group performs, they will receive a higher reward.
The dungeons will be scalable to the level of the group leader with Update 5. The Undaunted serve as quest givers.
The world of The Elder Scrolls Online should become clickable
In addition to the changes in the dungeons, the world should become more clickable and logical. It should become common in The Elder Scrolls Online to take an apple from a basket of apples and not a piece of meat or a glass bottle. This change goes hand in hand with a thorough overhaul of the crafting system: everything should become more logical, accessible, and clearer.
With so many new items to loot, they want to relieve the players’ inventory: pets and collectibles will get their own slots.
Everything is still coming: Spell weaving, alchemy, horse racing, glass armor
Furthermore, during the guild summit, they reiterated the intention to introduce completely new features into the game. In addition to the already known “Spellcrafting”, spell weaving will be introduced, along with alchemy, and a form of horse racing has also been confirmed.
The “glass armors” known from the single-player series will also make their way into the world of The Elder Scrolls Online.
When these changes will come is currently hard to say. The dungeons, that much is pretty certain, will likely be renovated with Update 5. The update should already be rolled out at least on the test server this month.
In the previous article about the guild summit, we dealt with changes in crafting and combat systems, and the next one will probably address the Imperial City and the Champion System.
