ESO 1.50 Patch Notes (Scalebreaker DLC & Update 23)

SCALEBREAKER DLC GAME PACK

New Dungeons

Moongrave Fane
- Not everyone who hunts Dragons does so with noble intentions. Within the ancient ruins of a forgotten Khajiiti faith, the vampires of the Hollowfang Clan hold one of these powerful creatures captive, and their intentions are anything but noble. Join the mysterious Dragonguard, Chevalier Renald, in his crusade against the Hollowfangs before their nefarious plans spell doom for his misguided comrade.
Lair of Maarselok
- Something deeply wrong is growing in the jungles of Tenmar, a malignant blight with a Dragon at its heart. The armies of Elden Root have tried, and failed, to root it out and now their last desperate hope rests on a precarious truce between the forest spirit, Selene, and her captor, the Warlock Carindon. Can you keep the peace between these bitter enemies long enough to end Maarselok’s blight?
Moongrave Fane and Lair of Maarselok are 4-Player Dungeons which can be reached via Northern Elsweyr and Grahtwood respectively.
- Moongrave Fane’s entrance is in south western Northern Elsweyr, east of the entrance to Reaper’s March.
- Lair of Maarselok’s entrance is located on in Grahtwood, northeast of the Ossuary of Telacar.
Both Dungeons include a Normal version in addition to a challenging Veteran version.
There are unique item sets, including two new Undaunted Monster Mask sets, only available within the Dungeons.
Unique Achievement awards are available for completing the Dungeons, including:
- A unique Momento
- A unique non-combat pet
- Several Titles
- Unique housing items

Base Game Changes in ESO 1.50

Multi-Crafting
You can now perform several actions in bulk at crafting stations and receive your items immediately! This includes refining, creation, deconstructing, and extracting, and applies to all crafting stations. Note that a multi-craft will only partially process if your inventory fills during it.

Guild Trader Multi-Bidding
You can now place bids on up to 10 different guild traders per week for your guild. If your guild has multiple winning bids, the bid with the highest gold amount is the one awarded. If you have multiple winning bids with the same gold amount, the oldest bid placed is awarded.

A guild is still only awarded 1 guild trader for the week.
All bids other than the one that awards you a guild trader are refunded.
Bids for the week can be viewed by selecting “View Bids” within the Guild UI.
- This is only available to members with bid permission.
The restrictions of needing 50 guild members and having permission to bid still apply.

Undaunted Key Improvements
As of this update, Undaunted Keys are now located in the currency tab and no longer take up valuable inventory space. You can also now spend your keys directly at each of the three pledge masters (Urgarlag Chief-bane, Glirion the Redbeard, Maj al-Ragath) in a number of ways.

The mystery coffers sold by each respective pledge master function similarly to the previous chest interactions.
- These provide a guaranteed monster set shoulder piece from among the dungeons associated with the pledges that NPC offers, along with a chance at a number of other rewards, for a single key.
The pledge masters also sell more specialized coffers at a cost of five keys each, and these will provide you with a guaranteed monster set shoulder piece from only two potential sources, allowing you to spend more keys to narrow the potential reward pool.
The monthly monster shoulder style pages will be available directly from the merchant for 50 keys each, in addition to continuing to be a rare drop from the mystery coffers, at the same rates as previously seen with the Undaunted chests.
Note that you’ll need to log in with each character for their pre-existing keys to be converted into this new account-wide currency.

Fragments
To help alleviate items taking up inventory, some items have been converted into a new type of collection: Fragments.

When certain items are obtained or used, they will be consumed and turned into a Fragment in your Collections page.
When you have all the Fragments for an item, using one of the Fragments in your collections page will convert the Fragments into a complete collectible.
Once an item is converted to a Fragment, it cannot be converted back into an item, so make sure to finish up the set.
The items using this new method include:
- Indrik Feathers and Berries: Upon logging in, if your character has any Indrik Feathers or Berries, these items will automatically be converted into Fragments and put into your collections. When you purchase Indrik Feathers or Berries from the Impresario, they will automatically go into your Fragments collection.
- Apple Bobbing Cauldron parts: These still drop as items so you can trade them with other players. You will need to manually use these to consume them and put them in your Fragments collection.

Jewelry Crafting Master Writ Improvements
In this update, new Jewelry Crafting Master Writs received from daily Jewelry writs will most commonly request a superior piece of jewelry, with a rare chance of epic, and a very rare chance of legendary. The number of writs awarded from newly received epic and legendary Jewelry Crafting Master Writs has been significantly increased. This change is not retroactive.

Master Writ Merchant Updates
The Master Mediator Rolis Hlaalu is now selling a new legendary furnishing recipe for each tradeskill, while Achievement Mediator Faustina Curio offers the prior legendary recipes as well as new envelopes that contain random furnishing plans from Summerset and Clockwork City.

New Collectibles
This update features the new Battleground Runner Armor Outfit Style which you can acquire through certain Battlegrounds:

Battleground Runner Armor Outfit Styles: These new Outfit Styles will occasionally be found by completing Flag Games (and only Flag Games) in Battlegrounds.
- These Outfit Style Pages are bound to you when you obtain them.
- Your performance in the Flag Game does not impact these Outfit Styles’ drop chance. Win, lose, or draw, you have the same chance to obtain a Battleground Runner Outfit Style Page.
- You will always obtain these Outfit Style Pages in a prescribed order: first the Jack, then the Bracers, the Guards, the Boots, the Arm Cops, and finally the Helmet, in that order. (There is no Waist Outfit Style.)
- Once you’ve obtained all six of the Battleground Runner Armor Outfit Styles, you will begin to obtain Battlegrounds Memorabilia, a treasure that can be sold to vendors for 1,000 gold, at the same rate.

Updated Item Sets
Many item sets have had bug fixes or value adjustments based on our ability audits. For example, some weapon altering sets have seen their bonuses adjusted if their related ability has seen drastic adjustment. This is by no means a full pass, and we will be continuing our audit with item sets in a future update.

Note for Phoenix, Eternal Warrior, and Immortal Warrior: The “self-resurrect” sets have caused issues where they underperformed in most cases and over-performed in very specific circumstances. We removed their self-resurrect mechanic, but kept the survival and defensive theme these sets offered as well as greatly reducing their cooldowns.

New Furnishings

There is a new achievement furnishing obtainable from any Cyrodiil Achievement Furnisher related to achievements involving the Volendrung artifact.
As always, each week the Luxury Furnisher will appear in Coldharbour with specialty goods for sale for the weekend, with at least 1 new item which has never been available via any other method.

  - Increased the healing per tick by approximately 11%.

Grave Lord
- Blastbones:
  - Removed the delay of the skeleton summoned from this ability and its morphs before it would attempt to leap to its target, to help reliability.

    - Mystic Siphon (morph): This ability now restores 35 Magicka per tick at Rank IV, down from 75.
Living Death
- Render Flesh: Fixed an issue where the Befouled star from the Shadow tree was applying to the Minor Defile from this ability and its morphs.

Jode’s Core:

The Battle for Riverhold:
- Fixed an issue where Zamarak would keep drawing and sheathing his weapons.

Tutorial

Fixed an issue where you could interact with the wrong Zamarak after the tutorial was complete.

Combat & Gameplay

General

ESO 1.50 increased the duration of the Off-Balance effect on all of its player sources to 7 seconds from 5 seconds to improve the window it may be interacted with.
- Note: We are still investigating additional messaging improvements to help make it more obvious when it activates.
All player sources of bleeds will now respect a target’s Physical Resistance. Many adjustments have been made to ensure bleeds deal similar damage to other standard Damage Over Time effects.
You will no longer become stuck sprinting if you managed to be accosted by a guard while sprinting, even though you were pretty terrified.
Ground targeted abilities will now be un-queued after weapon swapping. This should help reduce situations where you could become stuck casting one of these abilities, such as Grand Healing or Lightning Splash.
Fixed numerous instances where well-timed ability uses from charges, leaps, teleports, blinks, and pulls could allow you to bypass collision.
Many Damage over Time abilities, both single target and Area of Effect, have been re-standardized to follow similar behaviors to other ability types. Area of Effect DoTs will now be 33% weaker than a single target DoT counter-part and cost 30% more, just like direct damage AoEs vs single target ones.
Adjusted the animations and cast times for many Ultimates that are meant to have high impact to better synchronize their attacks to their animations. These abilities cannot be interrupted, and canceling them or being stopped while casting them will not consume your Ultimate.
- Death Stroke & morphs: Added a 400ms cast time to these abilities to sync up with their animations.
- Dawnbreaker & morphs: Added a 400ms cast time to these abilities.
- Berserker Strike & morphs: Added a 400ms cast time to these abilities.
- Soul Shred & morphs: Added a 500ms cast time to these abilities.
- Lacerate & morphs: Added a 500ms cast time to these abilities, rather than the 500ms delay they had before.
Improved the responsiveness of leaving or CC breaking knock up and knock back abilities, and increased the standard range of a knockback to 8 meters from 6 meters.
Fixed numerous issues where Area of Effect-based Damage over Time abilities were being considered Direct Damage in some circumstances. They will now always be treated as Damage over Time.
- This will also help their tooltips reference proper modifiers, such as Thaumaturge.
Pets will now properly gain the extra 5000 Health from Battle Spirit, rather than having their Max Health increased by 5000 but not healing for the difference.
Fixed an issue where default telegraphs on Area of Effect abilities would occasionally not appear in some PvP areas.
Sources of Stamina, Health, and Magicka cost reduction that are obtained from passives, abilities, or item sets are now all multiplicative, rather than being a mixture of additive and multiplicative.
- This was done for a more streamlined behavior across the board, and limit the opportunity to reduce an ability’s cost to 0 by stacking multiple sources of cost reduction.
- Below is a list of the affected sources that also had adjustments made to them, since this will ultimately increase the cost of abilities when using multiple sources of cost reduction.
Resource agnostic sources of Healing will now use your highest Critical Strike chance, rather than defaulting to your Spell Critical only. Resource agnostic refers to abilities that utilize only your Max Health to scale, or are based off flat values. Below is a list of all affected abilities:

Oblivion Damage continues to bypass positive and negative bonuses, and cannot be Blocked or Shielded.
Fixed an issue causing some players to not be visible to fellow group members.
Player-sourced Oblivion Damage will no longer bypass immunities on bosses.
Block mitigation now has a cap of 90%. This was done to prevent situations where you could reach 100% damage mitigation, which is not okay, m’kay?

    - Quick Siphon (morph): Since there is no cast time, this ability gains a new morph effect! Triggering the Minor Lifesteal debuff will also grant the activator Minor Expedition for 4 seconds.
- Grand Healing: Converted this ability into a true AoE HoT, rather than a hybrid spammable hybrid HoT.
  - Increased the duration from 3 seconds to 8 seconds, but you may only have 1 active at a time.
  - ESO 1.50 reduced the healing per tick by approximately 44%.
  - Reduced cost to 2808 from 3510.
    - Healing Springs (morph): This ability now grants 30 Magicka every time it heals an ally, rather than restoring 330 Magicka for up to 3 allies healed by the initial hit. This will result in a higher return if you hit all 6 targets for the full duration, but will require more coordination to obtain.

  - Increased cost to 2700 from 2160.
    - Rapid Regeneration (morph): This morph now doubles the frequency but halves the duration.
    - Mutagen (morph): This morph no longer attempts to grant affected targets a burst heal and purge if they were under 20% Health after the heal triggered. It will now instead heal up to 2 additional targets in your radius, and is called Radiating Regeneration to better showcase its ability to diverge to targets.
- Steadfast Ward: Increased the base shield size of this ability by approximately 14%, but reduced the bonus scaling to 100% from 300% to better align it with other abilities, and reduce the polarizing effectiveness it has.
  - Healing Ward (morph): This morph will no longer heal you after the shield ends, because the shield hardly remains to do that. This morph will now heal you once every second for 33% of the remaining shield size instead, to ensure you gain effectiveness out of it. This heal can critically strike, due to the fact that the shield itself cannot crit.

- Annulment:
  - Reduced the shield size of this ability and its morphs by approximately 9%.

      - Increased the bonus modifier per piece of Light Armor worn for the Magicka return to 33% at Rank IV from 6%. Note this increase remains to be based on 5% of the ability’s cost, so each piece of Light Armor will increase the return from 5% to 6.65%.

    - Immovable Brute (morph):
      - Renamed this morph to Unstoppable Brute.
      - It no longer passively reduces the cost of CC break while slotted, but instead reduces the cost of CC breaking while the Major Ward and Resolve are active.

      - This morph also gains cost reduction as it ranks up.
    - Unstoppable (morph):
      - Renamed this morph to Immovable.
      - This morph no longer increases the duration of the ability.

If you are in all 7 pieces of Heavy Armor, you will truly be, Immovable. Unless Elite difficulty enemies hit you with a special move, they don’t care if you think you’re immovable.

World

Soul Magic
- Soul Strike:
  - Increased the damage per tick for this ability and its morphs by approximately 22%, but increased the time it takes to deal its total damage to 5 seconds from 2.9 seconds to help reduce the bursty nature of the ultimate. This also means the CC immunity granted from activating the ability lasts the 5 seconds, instead of only 2.9.

  - Increased the base cost to 175 Ultimate from 100 Ultimate.

  - Increased the damage per tick by approximately 161%.
  - Removed the 2 second delay from these abilities.
  - This ability and the Consuming Trap will now only hit one enemy instead of up to 2.
  - Fixed many visual errors with these abilities.

    - Devouring Swarm (morph):
      - Increased the base cost of this Ultimate to 250 from 200.

The Weapon Damage scaling of this ability was approximately 800% weaker than the Spell Damage scaling, while the Stamina scaling was 1500% weaker than the Magicka scaling. The heal will now scale for half of the damage’s base coefficient (note this does not mean the heal is tethered to half of the damage dealt).
    - Clouding Swarm (morph):
      - Increased the cost of this Ultimate to 250 from 200.
      - Reduced the damage of Clouding Swarm’s activate, Materialize, by approximately 6% per hit.

- Drain Essence:
  - ESO update 1.50 removed the 1 second delay on this ability and its morphs before it deals damage.
  - The channel from this ability can no longer be dodged.

  - Reduced the damage dealt by your Light and Heavy Attacks with this ability and its morphs by approximately 17%.
  - Increased the range of the Light Attacks to 7 meters from 5 meters, and the Heavy Attacks to 10 meters from 7 meters. This was done to help preserve the same distance from standard forms, since your character size increase was not applying to the range of your abilities, causing your attacks to appear as if they lost range.
  - This ability and the Pack Leader morph no longer apply a bleed to enemies hit with Light Attacks, or deal area damage with Heavy Attacks.
    - Pack Leader:
      - The Direwolves can no longer be targeted or die.

- Equilibrium:

- Purge:

General

Certain item set-sourced pets will no longer be filled with fear and dismay when you enter Stealth, which would cause them to cease existing. They will now only disappear into the void when their time on Nirn has ended (death or duration end).

Consumables

Bloody Mara: Reduced the Max Health granted by approximately 14% and the Max Magicka granted by approximately 13% from this consumable. This was done to retain the fact that drinks are meant to be slightly weaker than their food counterparts, due to special item sets and bonuses that key off them.

In an effort to decrease the amount of times you end up “stuck in combat” in Cyrodiil, all ranged guards have undergone sweeping changes to their awareness and aggro behavior.
- Note: Pure Melee guards are not affected by this change, nor are the rules of engagement for pure player vs. player “in combat” rules regarding groupmates.
Cyrodiil Mage Guards will now attempt to cast their area-based abilities when initializing combat instead of their lightning strike.
When you enter an Alliance Locked Campaign, you will now receive a warning message upon entering the Campaign notifying when the Alliance Lock will occur.
- Once you dismiss this message, it will no longer appear until you either leave the campaign or the lock activates.
There is now a one hour grace period after the end of a campaign – 30 minutes before the start of a new campaign, and another 30 minutes after the new campaign begins. During this time, no alliance lock is applied for being in Cyrodiil.
