Online:Patch/5.0.1

The Elder Scrolls Online v5.0.1 introduces a new Dungeon Event for testing this week, where you can earn Reward Boxes simply by defeating the final boss of a dungeon. We also have many fixes for Elsweyr content, thanks to your feedback and reports, and improvements for the PvP Artifact Weapon system. Note that for this week, there will be multiple Volendrung's active at once in Cyrodiil to aid with testing.

You'll find in addition to a number of bug fixes for combat abilities, we've also included a few balance changes as well, with more on the way next week based on your feedback and testing. Additionally, we'll be performing a new character copy for PC/Mac NA characters to help address the issue where you'd have to relog to create a Necromancer.

In addition to the Dungeon Event, we'd also like to do a testing event specifically for Dragons in Elsweyr. This will occur on Thursday, April 25, from 2:00-4:00pm EDT. During this time, we'd like everyone to focus on killing as many Dragons as possible so we can watch through livestreams and collect the appropriate data. While you're participating, please also equip the Blue Dragon Imp pet so we can gather some technical data on the pet; you can purchase this from the Crown Store.

We appreciate everyone's feedback so far – keep it coming! You can expect the size of this patch to be approximately 255MB.

Template Information
Fixed an issue where the Perfected Tooth of Lokkestiiz item bag, found on template-made characters, was incorrectly named as the non-perfect version of the set.
Updated the Character Template to contain the Style Items for Anequina, Coldsnap, Dark Brotherhood, Meridian, and Pellitine styles. (Removed the stack of Black Honeycomb, as well.)

Note: Existing template-made characters will not have this knowledge applied to them.
Added a new item to the Character Template: the Treasure Hunter's Parcel. At present, this item contains all Treasure Maps for Elsweyr, including those obtained from the Collector's Edition.
In future PTS character templates, the Treasure Maps found in this Parcel may change to reflect the new zone, or the item may simply be unavailable.

Ruinous Scythe
Grave Lord
Blastbones: Fixed an issue where this ability and its morphs could damage your allies if you died while it was active. Your minions were just so sad that you died they couldn't control themselves.
Flesh Colossus:
Pestilent Colossus (morph): Fixed an issue where the 2nd and 3rd smash from this attack was not applying Major Vulnerability.

Fixed the VO timing in scenes across the zone.
Fixed a few dozen posture transition issues on NPCs in Elsweyr.
Fixed an issue where NPC followers were a little too cheerfully friendly toward your Necromancer pets. Hello, Skellington Pal! How are you today? Bone dry, you say? I'd offer you a glass of water, but it'd all fall through! I need more coffee.
Updated the quest rewards for the following quests:
Battle for Riverhold
Memories and Moonlight

The Final Order
The Usurper Queen
Unhealthy Preoccupation

Rimmen
Panolya relocated to the other side of her little garden area so that, if returning to her seat after being attacked, she no longer sits down on air with no chair to support her. Aldmeri core exercises being what they are, she's probably still ripped as hell as a result of that workout.

Weapon
Two Handed
Berserker Rage: Fixed an issue where the CC immunity granted from this ability wasn't granting immunity to interrupts.

The Spiders spawned from this synergy and the morphed synergies now properly scale dynamically with your offensive stats, rather than only Weapon Damage.
The spiders will now attack once every 2 seconds, rather than every 1.5 seconds.

Fixed an issue where the map icon for Volendrung would jump back to its spawn location when dropped or carried far enough away.
The center screen announcement for Volendrung that appears in Cyrodiil will now trigger if you enter the campaign just after it has appeared. If Volendrung has been revealed on the map, no announcement will trigger to keep this from being too spammy.
