Hotfix 4/5/17 - Anniversary Event Items

Hi everyone,

We just published a hotfix that has resolved two issues surrounding ESO's Anniversary Event:
# We fixed an issue where some of you were receiving an item that had no icon (it was simply a red box with a question mark). This is actually a recipe to craft a small furnishing item – specifically, either an Argonian or Redguard-themed box – that will be released in Update 14. We have since removed this item from the Anniversary Gift Boxes to avoid confusion. If you received one of these mysterious items, it will not be removed from your inventory, and you'll be able to utilize the recipe in June.
# We also fixed an issue where you would occasionally not receive an additional special item in the Anniversary Gift Box. Moving forward, you will now consistently receive crafting materials in addition to a second, rarer item. Note that rare, in this case, does not necessarily reflect the quality of the item, but is simply something that's not a basic material such as ore, bananas, etc. It could include a wide range of items including Nirncrux, Motif chapters, Style items, Furnishing materials, Alchemy reagents, and more.

This hotfix does not require a patch to download, and the changes have automatically been taken into effect.

Hotfix 10/17/16 – Double Bloody Mara (PC/Mac Only)
We just completed a hotfix on the PC/Mac North American and European megaservers that solves an issue with the Witches Festival recipe, Double Bloody Mara. Werewolves who drank a Double Bloody Mara would be erroneously transformed into a Vampire, and would gain the negative effects without receiving the skill line. If you ran into this issue, please contact our Support Team and they can remove these unintended effects.

Moving forward, drinking the Double Bloody Mara as a Vampire will reduce your level of vampirism effect by one – similar to feeding off an NPC. In addition, all players who drink this will receive the normal food/drink buff and see an increase in maximum health and magicka.

You do not need to download a patch for this change to take effect. Thanks!

Hotfix 10/11/16 – EU Realm Selection
Today, we'll be publishing a hotfix to fix the issue where your server selection would reset to NA each time you load the game client. This will also fix the issue where changing realms wouldn't immediately take effect and would log you into the wrong server, making it appear as though EU players had lost their characters.

This hotfix will not require any downtime, but you will need to download a small patch once the hotfix is complete, which will be in the next few minutes. We'll let you know as soon as it's complete and ready! Thanks for everyone's patience while we worked on fixing this issue.

Hotfix 10/11/16 - Grouping Issue in Cyrodiil
Tomorrow beginning at 6:00am EDT, we’ll be performing a hotfix to partially fix the issue where you’re removed from a group after using a Transitus Shrine in Cyrodiil. However, please note that there’s still an outstanding issue where you can be removed from a group if someone in your group is offline, and you use a Transitus Shrine or resurrect at a keep. We’re continuing to work on fixing this issue, and plan to have a fix in an upcoming patch. In the meantime, we suggest the group leader remove any offline members from the group to prevent this situation from happening.

We’re continuing to work on a fix for the EU realm selection issues, and will roll that out as soon as we can.

The hotfix for the grouping issue will require some downtime (only on PC/Mac) which could last approximately 3 hours. We’ll let you know as we’re nearing the end of maintenance.

Hotfix 10/14/16 – Plunder Skull Trading
Hi everyone,

We just completed a hotfix on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 that now restricts you from trading Plunder Skulls - items gained from bosses during the Witches Festival - within members of your group. This functionality is already on PC with Update 12, and while there was no real harm in trading with each other, doing so was causing performance issues including causing you and other players around you to disconnect from the game.

Even though you will no longer be able to trade Plunder Skulls, you can still freely trade any items you receive from the Plunder Skulls.

You do not need to download a patch for this change to take effect.

Hotfix with Downtime 5/31/16 (PC/Mac Only)
Today, we brought down the North American and European PC/Mac megaservers for an unplanned maintenance to address an item-related issue that was introduced with the Dark Brotherhood update. The nature of this issue involved some players missing specific equippable items from their characters, inventories, and/or banks upon logging into that character.

We have rolled out a partial fix to address this issue, and are working on a more comprehensive fix that will go into the next patch. You may encounter the following with some items until we deploy the full fix:
Tooltip item sell values may be incorrect
Item stats may be incorrect
Item color may be incorrect
Item appearance may be incorrect, as far as the quality of the item
Here is an example of what an impacted item looks like (correct on the left, incorrect on the right):



When we release the client patch to fully fix this issue, your items will display all the correct values, stats, colors, quality, and appearance.

If you are one of the players whose item(s) are no longer on your character or in your inventory/bank, please contact our Support team while in the game—we will be able to check item logs and see what you're missing.

Hotfix with Downtime 4/29/16 – Survey Reports
Today, we'll be bringing all platforms and megaservers offline for a short unplanned maintenance to address a recent exploit involving Survey Reports. Once the fix is applied, Survey Reports will be removed from your inventory upon discovering the associated survey site, instead of the first time you harvest a node from a survey site. Note that this is a temporary change, and will be revised once Dark Brotherhood is released.

Below is the current schedule for when each megaserver will be taken offline:
PC NA: 2:00pm EDT / 19:00 BST
PC EU: 2:00pm EDT / 19:00 BST
Xbox One NA: 4:00pm EDT / 21:00 BST
Xbox One EU: 4:00pm EDT / 21:00 BST
PS4 NA: 4:00pm EDT / 21:00 BST
PS4 EU: 4:00pm EDT / 21:00 BST

We'll update this thread as each megaserver is brought down for maintenance, and when the maintenance for each is complete. We also want to remind everyone that we do take exploiting very seriously and if you are found to have taken advantage of this issue, your account could be actioned.

Thanks for your patience, and we'll keep you up to date in this thread!
