The PS4 version of The Elder Scrolls Online receives a major patch today, March 22, 2017, which fixes performance issues and makes improvements to housing.
Every Wednesday, there are maintenance works in The Elder Scrolls Online for the PS4 version, and today, March 22, 2017, a major patch has been rolled out to the megaservers.
At the time of this article, only the patch notes for the Xbox version were available. They should be identical to the PS4 version. As soon as the official patch notes for the PS4 update are available, we will update it here accordingly. The patch was 12 gigabytes on Xbox; typically, it should be slightly smaller on PS4.
Meanwhile, the maintenance work has been completed, and the official patch notes for the PS4 version are available. They are – as expected – identical to those of the Xbox version. However, the size of the PS4 update is only 6.2 gigabytes, and the patch is called “v 1.22”.
The Elder Scrolls Online – Improvements to the Thieves Guild and the Base Game
The current patch fixes performance issues and bugs in housing and master writs. You can now more easily loot furnishing wax for housing (it now drops from insects and can be found in crates and urns) and the luxury vendor Zanil Theran is now more frequently present.
Additionally, there are adjustments for the DLC “Thieves Guild”. The quests “What Was Lost” and “Lonely Escape” were still plagued by bugs that prevented you from receiving quest-relevant documents from chests. That should now work. Furthermore, you should no longer be affected by certain effects in the raid “The Depths of Lorkhaj” after defeating the relevant bosses.
Among other things, the following changes have been made in the base game:
- Dogs no longer bark as often as they did since the release of Homestead
- Nixad companions are screeching again
- Diverse interface bugs have been fixed that prevented items from displaying with merchants or in the shop
- Treasure chests can now contain paintings for housing
- Item set bugs have been fixed
- Some faulty housing items can now be crafted correctly
- A bug that made you invulnerable after resurrection is now fixed
- Diverse bug fixes for quests and in dungeons
