Online:Patch/3.0.0

Welcome to The Elder Scrolls Online v3.0.0, introducing our first chapter: Morrowind! The fate of the island of Vvardenfell hangs in the balance and needs a hero to help Vivec, the legendary warrior-poet god, who suffers from a mysterious illness. For this week's first PTS testing cycle, we'll be focusing on the new player experience. To help us test the Vvardenfell story, please create a new character.

In addition to Vvardenfell, the largest landmass addition to date, we're also introducing the first new class since ESO launched: the Warden. This class is an adaptable, support-orientated option for players who want to be able to fill a specific role while simultaneously providing assistance to others. If you are interested in a class that uses the wilds of Tamriel to protect, heal, or deal damage (occasionally all at the same time) the Warden is for you.

Morrowind also brings a new PvP mode – Battlegrounds – which are small-scale, fast-paced battles with three teams of four players. If you're looking for a real challenge, head to our newest 12-player Trial, Halls of Fabrication, featuring a Normal and Veteran version. You're welcome to utilize an existing, copied character or template to test these new systems. You'll also find a host of new item sets, Motifs, homes and furnishings, collectibles, titles, and even dyes.

But that's not all! The base game brings many new updates as well including updates to the Champion System, the Master Writ Merchant, Cyrodiil Rewards, a new Inverse Kinematic System, and more. And as always, we have a number of bug fixes and general improvements to the overall game.

Please remember if you are participating on the PTS and giving us feedback, the entire update is currently covered under a strict NDA. If you've received an email invitation to join us in testing Morrowind content, we'd ask that you post your feedback in this forum section. All other discussion surrounding the base game can still be posted in the regular PTS forums.

We look forward to hearing what you think of ESO's first chapter, which is 9.7GB in size. Thank you, and enjoy!

Morrowind
Travel to the volcanic island of Vvardenfell and explore a land of Dark Elves, Living Gods, and bizarre creatures as adventurers from every alliance answer Lord Vivec's call. An ominous prophecy and an insidious plot threaten all of Vvardenfell—can you save the island from a looming disaster? Wander the harsh landscape as an emissary for Lord Vivec, performing missions for the Great Houses, delving into mysterious ruins, and meeting unique challenges head-on in the shadow of the rumbling Red Mountain. The fate of Morrowind rests in your hands!
If using a copied character or a template, you can do one of the following to travel to Vvardenfell:
Open your Collections, select Stories and then Morrowind under the Chapters tab. From there, you can accept the starting quest.
To get to Vvardenfell, seek out the navigator, Captain Jenassa, located near the docks in the major cities throughout Tamriel. Talk to her and she will offer to transport you to Vivec City or Seyda Neen.
You can also take a boat located in Mournhold, Wayrest, or Woodhearth.
If creating a new character:
Create a new character and select Play Tutorial. You will start in a new tutorial designed specifically for Morrowind players.
Alternatively, you can choose Skip Tutorial. Your character will automatically start on the dock at Seyda Neen in the new Vvardenfell zone.

;New Public Dungeons
Two new public dungeons are available for you to explore in Morrowind.
Nchuleftingth: Help Neramo the scholar uncover the secrets of Nchuleftingth and prevent an unscrupulous ruins robber from plundering ancient Dwarven technology. Explore the Ashlands in the east to uncover this Dwemer ruin.
Forgotten Wastes: On the northern coast, enter the Forgotten Wastes to explore ancient Dark Elf ruins and solve a murder mystery while dealing with evil cultists intent on resurrecting a long-lost Dunmer House.

;New Playable Class: The Warden
Wardens have a strong set of abilities focused on supporting their allies, but they can also focus their skill selection and morphs on solo combat. If you like to take hits, deal damage, or heal, this class is for you. Wardens are able to summon icy barriers to protect their allies, sprout healing plants to restore them, and command a savage grizzly to attack their enemies. This versatile class uses the power of Y'ffre's blessing to help deal with any situation. To read more about the Warden's three skill lines – Animal Companions, Green Balance, and Winter's Embrace – please visit our website article here.

;PVP Battlegrounds
Welcome to Battlegrounds! Battlegrounds are fast-paced, small-scale PVP zones designed for three teams of four players each. Alliance affiliation doesn't matter in this new PVP mode, so feel free to play with or against your friends and foes from Cyrodiil! To get into the fight quickly, simply open your Activity Finder, navigate to the Battlegrounds option, and queue. For a bit more information, keep on reading!
You can queue solo or with a group of 2, 3 or 4 players into a Battleground. Large groups cannot queue for Battlegrounds. 
When queued, you'll be placed into one of three maps:
Foyada Quarry: Solid ground and lava pools play a key role in this open field battleground.
Ald Carac: An ancient Dwemer site recently excavated which offers close quarter battles and tight spaces.
Ularra: This overgrown Daedric site still resonates with ancient portals.
One of three game modes will be chosen at random when going into a Battleground:
Team Deathmatch: Get points for killing other player characters! This game mode also features Sigils of Power that spawn randomly during the match.
Capture the Flag: Grab the enemy relic and bring it back to yours, but your relic must be safe at home to capture an enemy's relic.
Domination: Land grab at its purest.  There are four capture points to battle over to earn points.
There are three teams you'll be assigned to when in a Battleground: Pit Daemons, Storm Lords or Fire Drakes.  The colors associated with these teams are Green, Purple and Orange, respectively.
Battleground matches last a maximum of 15 minutes, but can end early if the maximum score is reached. Game modes currently have a maximum score of 500 points.
When a Battleground ends, you'll earn rewards based on whether your team came in first, second or third. Rewards include items, gold, XP and Alliance Points.
During a Battleground, you'll earn Medals which are granted based on your actions to progress your team towards victory specific to each game mode. For example, in a Team Deathmatch game, you'll earn Medals for getting killing blows or healing allies. In a Capture the Flag match, you'll get Medals for capturing the flag, but not for kill streaks.
Medals influence the quality of a reward you'll receive at the end of a match.  The more Medals you've earned, the better chance you have to get your item reward upgraded to blue or purple quality!
Medals have a score associated with them which are added onto one of three weekly Leaderboards. These Leaderboards are divided by game types, so you'll only earn Medals for that Leaderboard type.  The three Leaderboards include:
Team Deathmatch: Only Medals from Team Deathmatch go into this Leaderboard.
Flag Games: Capture the Flag Medals and other "mobile flag games" to be added in future updates go into this Leaderboard.
Land Grab: Domination Medals and other "stationary banner games" to be added in future updates go into this Leaderboard.
At the end of the week, players on the Leaderboard will be awarded items based on their rank on the Leaderboards.
Leaving a Battleground before the match is over will incur a penalty. 
This is currently set to block you from queueing for another Battleground for 20 minutes, as well as suppress any AP-earning events.
All Battlegrounds currently restrict Champion Points.
You can pick up daily quests for Battlegrounds in one of two locations from a Battlemaster: in the Gladiator's Quarters near Vivec City, or at the entrance for each Battleground.

;New Trial: Halls of Fabrication
Through a mysterious twist of fate, an anomalous rift to a strange realm has opened beneath the freshly-grown tower of Tel Fyr, spilling eerily life-like automata into the world. Left unchecked, these machines threaten to subsume everything on the surface into their alien mechanical paradigm. Brave souls are needed to go beyond the rift and find the source of these dangerous machines and stop them from converting Tamriel into their own image. Joining forces with the renowned wizard and planar traveler, Divayth Fyr, you must overcome the unknown beyond the rift and be the first living souls to tread into the Halls of Fabrication. 
Halls of Fabrication is a 12-player Trial located in Morrowind, and features a Normal version in addition to a challenging Veteran version!
To enter Halls of Fabrication, you have two options:
Travel to the tower of Tel Fyr, located in eastern Morrowind.
Speak with Daynillo Rethul, located in Vivec City on the docks, to receive the quest To Tel Fyr which will direct take you to the entrance.
There are unique item sets available only within Halls of Fabrication which grant unique, group-based PvE bonuses.
Unique achievement awards are available for completing the Trial achievements. These include a unique skin, several titles, and unique housing items, all described in below.
The Veteran version of Halls of Fabrication will qualify anyone who completes the Trial for the Leaderboards.

;New Item Sets
There are 15 new Item Sets available from a variety of sources:
3 Item Sets available at crafting stations in Vvardenfell
Assassin's Guile
Daedric Trickery
Shacklebreaker
3 Item Sets available as drops throughout Vvardenfell
Infector
War Maiden
Warrior-Poet
4 Item Sets available as drops in the new Trial, Halls of Fabrication
Automated Defense
Inventor's Guard
Master Architect
War Machine
5 Item Sets available as rewards in the new PvP Battlegrounds
Coward's Gear
Knight Slayer
Impregnable Armor
Vanguard's Challenge
Wizard's Riposte

;New Crafting Motifs
We've added four new Motifs for you to collect and craft!
The Ashlander style can be learned from the Ashlanders of Vvardenfell.
Motif chapters can occasionally be found as rewards for performing daily quests for Numani-Rasi or Huntmaster Sorim-Nakar.
The style item, Ash Canvas, can also be earned from the same quests.
The Buoyant Armiger style can be obtained from treasure chests and treasure maps across Vvardenfell.
Motif chapters are rare, but show up more often in higher-difficulty chests and treasure map chests. By quirk of fate, those who have proven themselves friends of the island and the living god Vivec are more likely to find its chapters or book than others.
The style item, Volcant Viridian, can be refined from Viridian Dust, which can be found uncommonly on any harvestable resource in Vvardenfell.
The Morag Tong style can be learned from the Hall of Justice in Vivec City.
Motif chapters can occasionally be found in Bounty Dispensations or Explorer's Dispensations awarded to those who complete tasks for the Hall of Justice.
The style item, Boiled Carapace, can also be earned from the same quests.
The Militant Ordinator style can be acquired from the Battleground Supplies Merchant near Vivec City.
Each motif chapter can be purchased for Alliance Points from Colotarion, in the Gladiator's Quarters.
The style item, Lustrous Sphalerite, can be refined from Dull Sphalerite, which is sold for Alliance Points from the same merchant.

;New Homes
Three new properties are now available to move into in Morrowind.
Saint Delyn Penthouse: For the city-loving Dark Elf, there's no better choice of residence than the Saint Delyn Penthouse in the heart of Vivec City, on the Waistworks level of the Saint Delyn canton.
By completing the quest, "A Friend In Need", you can earn a modest inn room in the St. Delyn Canton of Vivec City.
This inn room can also be purchased for 3000 gold if your character has already completed the quest in the base game or if you already own another inn-room.
Ald Velothi Harbor House: On the coast north of Gnisis, this three-level home in the Redoran "bug-house" style comes with a walled courtyard, a nearby dock, and convenient access to the nearby ruins of Ashalmawia and Arkngthunch-Sturdumz.
Amaya Lake Lodge: Enjoy the opulent luxury of a country lodge built by the Dark Elves of an earlier, more expansive era—a walled estate with a grand multistory house, roof balcony, stable, storage building, a well, and room for a formal garden.
Both the Ald Velothi Harbor House and Amaya Lake Lodge homes require Morrowind achievements in order to purchase them with gold, and are also available for Crowns in furnished and unfurnished variants. Note that these two homes can be purchased for Crowns even if you do not have access to Morrowind, but leaving your new home will take you back to your last safe location outside of Morrowind.

;New Furnishings and Furnishing Plans
Many new Furnishing Plans can be found across Vvardenfell in trunks, backpacks, and other common sources for recipes and plans. While they will only appear in Vvardenfell, they can be traded freely or sold on Guild Traders.
Four new Furnishers are available in Morrowind:
Drops-No-Glass, the Achievement Furnisher for Morrowind, can be found in Saint Delyn's Inn in Vivec City.
Uzipa, a Home Goods Furnisher, sells a variety of volcanic stone, mushrooms, and plants, and can also be found in Saint Delyn's Inn.
Llivas Driler and Brelda Ofemalen, the Battleground Furnishers, sell banners and relics associated with the Storm Lords, Fire Drakes, and Pit Daemons. They can be found in the Gladiator's Quarters in Vivec City.
Xanil Theran, the Luxury Furnisher, continues to cycle his stock of unusual furnishings. This update's themes will highlight Morrowind's unique past, including furnishings associated with several of the most secretive and powerful entities to influence Morrowind's history.
There are also a few unique sources of furnishings and plans with the launch of Morrowind:
Daedric Furnishing Plans
The reward chests for Dark Anchors across Tamirel now have a small chance to contain a Daedric furnishing plan.
These same furnishing plans can be found, more rarely, from slain humanoid Daedra, such as Dremora or Xivkyn.
Dwarven Furnishing Plans
Dwarven constructs and world objects within Dwarven ruins anywhere in Tamriel will rarely have plans for Dwarven machinery and pipeworks.
Dwarven constructs will also sometimes provide undamaged cogs and gears when slain, which you can display in your home.
Justice-Related Furnishing Plans and Furnishings
Some of the citizens of Vvardenfell are carrying new furnishing items or plans in their pockets. Perhaps you'll help lighten their load?
A few of the more prudent islanders have stowed their favorite furnishings in safeboxes. Surely, these will be safe from any prying fingers…
Treasure Chests
The finest treasure chests in Vvardenfell will rarely contain new paintings specific to Morrowind.
Quest-Related Furnishing Rewards
Daily tasks for the Ashlanders of Vvardenfell will rarely reward furnishing plans for Ashlander dishware, or directly reward a type of dining knife Ashlanders favor.
Harvesting-Related Furnishing Rewards
Mushrooms and plants in Vvardenfell will rarely produce accompanying foliage or fungi when harvested. Beetles with fungal infestations may, as well.
Ancestral Tombs
Ancient Velothi ancestral tombs will also rarely have their own unique furnishings within their offering urns.

;New Collectibles
A cornucopia of new collectibles await the avid adventurer in Morrowind. See below for details!
Costumes
Regalia of the Scarlet Judge: The famed vigilante known as the Scarlet Judge has upheld justice in Morrowind for generations, and has most recently been spotted near the town of Suran.
Sixth House Robe: Officially, there is no Sixth House, and these robes do not exist. Unofficially, Sixth House cultists in the Forgotten Wastes have been identified with fragments of these ancient robes in their possession. If one were to acquire all seven pieces, they might be able to reform them into an intact garment. What would such a relic be worth, to the right person?    
Furnishings
Vvardenfell Scale Model: Librarian Bradyn in Vivec City believes that completing such a model will reveal the location of the lost Library of Andule, an ancient repository of the knowledge of the Great Houses.
Assembly General (Trophy): Complete the Halls of Fabrication to bring home the head of this brazen behemoth.
Assembly General (Bust): Complete the Halls of Fabrication on Veteran difficulty to earn this tasteful bust of the Assembly General.
Head & Body Markings
Morag Tong Face & Body Tattoos: Assist Naryu Virian and the Morag Tong in and around Balmora to earn the right to display these striking tattoos.
Buoyant Armiger Body Tattoos: Be named Champion of Vivec to earn the right to wear the body tattoos of a Buoyant Armiger.
Mementos
Neramo's Lightning Stick: Aid the artificer Neramo in the Dwarven ruins of Nchuleftingth to earn this shocking memento.
Dreamer's Chime: Complete the quest "Echoes of a Fallen House" in the Forgotten Wastes public dungeon to recover this haunting bell.
Replica Tonal Inverter: Designed to temporarily disrupt the flow of energy in magical devices, help invent the device this replica is based on in your quest to aid Vivec.
Personalities
Telvanni Magister: Assist an Argonian slave in her meteoric rise through the ranks of House Telvanni, and learn to adopt the mannerisms of a Telvanni Magister.
Pets
Dwemer Theodolite: Sentries such as this one may have once been used to survey subterranean areas, and were likely involved in the construction of Nchuleftingth. It is theorized that some of the guardian constructs in this public dungeon may contain repurposed parts from defunct Theodolites, though finding a functional part would be a challenge for even a seasoned adventurer. With all seven parts, the mechanism could be reconstructed. Whether kept as a loyal pet or sold to the highest bidder, such a device would be sure to draw attention.
Skins
Fabrication Sheath: Proudly display your victory from Veteran Halls of Fabrication with this body sheath of burnished bronze!

;New Titles
There's never been a better time to seek your glory! Whether you choose to make your name on the isle of Vvardenfell, in Sotha Sil's Halls of Fabrication, or in the high-intensity combat of Battleground matches, you can proudly display your accomplishments with one of 21 new titles (unlisted to avoid spoilers!)

;New Dyes
This update introduces six new dyes, available for use at dye stations after completing various Morrowind-related achievements.
 : This rare dye, named for the distinctive sheen of the Dwarven Colossus, can be earned by completing Halls of Fabrication.
 : This rare dye is unlocked after… something…
 : This common faded green can be earned by defeating a total of 100 Wardens in Battlegrounds or the Alliance War.
 : Based on the heraldry of the Firedrakes, this uncommon dye can be earned by defeating 1,000 opponents in Battlegrounds.
 : Based on the heraldry of the Pit Daemons, this uncommon dye can be earned by capturing 100 enemy relics in Battlegrounds.
 : Based on the heraldry of the Stormlords, this uncommon dye can be earned by seizing 250 capture points in Battlegrounds.

New Features / Updates / Big Changes
;Champion Point Increase
The Champion Point cap has been raised by a total of 30 points (10 in each red/blue/green constellation) for a maximum of 630 Champion Points. The Champion Point experience curve has been automatically adjusted with this new cap, so that earlier Champion Points require less experience and can be earned faster.

;Champion System Rebalancing
The Champion System has undergone significant rebalancing in this update.
Stronger, more useful passives have had their maximum values reduced, while weaker, more niche passives have had their maximum values increased.
All passive values are now significantly more frontloaded and have much greater diminishing returns as you invest an increasing number of points into them.
The overall goal of these changes is to improve the balance and diversity of Champion Point picks, while also raising the power floor so that those with less Champion OPoints will be more effective.

;Skill Line Unlocking
Newly-created characters will now have all skill lines hidden except for the 3 from their class, the goal being to improve a new player's experience by reducing the initial number of skill line choices to a more manageable number.
Skill lines will now unlock when your character takes specific actions.
Armor skill lines unlock when you equip 3 pieces of a given armor type (light/medium/heavy).
Weapon skill lines unlock when you get a killing blow while the weapon is equipped.
Crafting skill lines are unlocked when you visit the appropriate crafting station.
Your racial skill line unlocks at level 5.
The AvA skill lines now unlock when you gain Alliance Points.
Other skill lines will continue to unlock as they did previously, such as the Mages Guild skill line when you join the guild.
We've also added some new UI features to help identify new skill lines:
When a skill line is added to the character, an exclamation mark will be displayed next to the Skills window.
Skill lines granted through quests will now display in the quest dialogue.
A message stating "New skill line gained" now includes an icon for the skill line.
Note: This feature only applies to newly created characters; all existing characters will be unaffected.

;Adjusted Experience (XP) for Levels 1 – 50
The experience needed to level from 1 to 50 has been adjusted. Earlier levels now require less experience to obtain, while later levels will require more.
The total time to level from 1 to 50 should generally remain unchanged, and anyone currently leveling should not see any decrease to their current level progress – in some cases you may see an increase in level depending on progress.
Additionally, all quests now provide more experience to help even the leveling time between those that complete quests versus simply killing monsters.

;Master Writ Merchant Update
Rolis Hlaalu, the Master Mediator, has expanded his inventory. He now sells plans for two Target Centurions suitable for evaluating the DPS of an entire Trial group, as well as two separate tiers of Furnisher's Documents.
The "Target Centurion, Dwarf-Brass" is a little tougher than the Veteran Yokeda Kai from Hel Ra Citadel, with nearly 26 million health. In addition to learning the praxis, this requires four Animus Stones as well as 12 Dwarven Construct Repair Parts, which can be found as weekly rewards from the Halls of Fabrication or acquired from other players.
The "Target Centurion, Robust Refabricated" is nearly half as tough as Ozara from Sanctum Ophidia, with over 51 million health. This behemoth requires a total of eight Animus Stones, as well as a whopping 120 Dwarven Construct Repair Parts.
The Hlaalu Furnisher's Document is now known as the Hlaalu Master's Furnisher Document, and is now sold for 25 Writ Vouchers.
A new item known as the Hlaalu Journeyman Furnisher's Document is now available in exchange for 10 Writ Vouchers, and contains a random blue furnishing recipe.

;Normal Mode Dungeon Trophies
If you've ever wanted to display the head of a Daedric Titan on a wall in your home, you're in luck! The Undaunted have started taking trophies home to memorialize their kills, and you are encouraged to do the same.
The final boss of every dungeon, Trial, and Arena now awards a unique Undaunted Trophy associated with one of the iconic monsters from the encounter. Similar to the Undaunted Busts already available in Veteran Mode, these can be placed once per home, and are account-wide.
To help keep things organized, there are now separate sub-sections of the Furnishings category for Undaunted Trophies and Undaunted Busts. Similarly, the Gallery section of the Housing Editor has separate subsections for each.

;New Hireling Mails
Each hireling skill now has roughly 100 more unique messages, telling a brand new set of stories. These will start to appear after you've exhausted the current pool of messages.

;Cyrodiil Reward Updates
We've updated the Cyrodiil Leaderboards rewards! Now, you will receive jewelry from the item sets listed below for placing on the leaderboard, or for your Alliance being in first place. 
The quality of the items you gain are unchanged: placing in the upper echelons of the individual leaderboards will reward you gold-quality items, as always, while lower leaderboard levels gain purple items.
The amount is unchanged, as well: the 4-week campaigns will award five items, while the 1-week campaigns will award only one item. 
Rewards for the Worthy now provide a single armor piece (but not weapons or jewelry) for one of the item sets listed below. Equipment from Rewards for the Worthy mails will always be at least Blue quality, with a chance at being Purple quality.
The included item sets are as follows: 
Affliction
Alessian Order
Almalexia's Mercy
Arch-Mage
Bastion of the Heartland
Beckoning Steel
Blessing of the Potentates
Buffer of the Swift
Crest of Cyrodiil
Curse Eater
Deadly Strike
Desert Rose
Eagle Eye
Elf Bane
Fasalla's Guile
Grace of the Ancients
Hawk's Eye
Juggernaut
Kyne's Kiss
Leki's Focus
Light of Cyrodiil
Marksman's Crest
Ravager
Robes of Alteration Mastery
Sentry
Shadow Walker
Shield of the Valiant
The Morag Tong
Vengeance Leech
Vicious Death
Ward of Cyrodiil
Warrior's Fury
Wrath of the Imperium

;New ESO Plus Benefit: Double Bank Capacity
ESO Plus members will now automatically receive twice the banking inventory slots. This includes both the base banking capacity as well as all bank slot upgrades purchased from Bankers or the Crown Store. That means 20 additional slots per upgrade instead of 10!
If your subscription lapses, your bank capacity will return to the standard limit. If this puts you over the limit, you will still be able to withdraw items, but will not be able to add items until you are no longer above the limit (similar to the way the Craft Bag currently works).

;Additional Purchasable Character Slots
With the release of Morrowind and the Warden class, we've added two more character slots up for sale in the Crown Store. This brings the new maximum character count to 14!

;Inverse Kinematic System (Beta)
The Inverse Kinematic (IK) System is a new feature in development that helps connect your character's feet to the ground.
This system can be toggled on or off in the Settings menu, but is defaulted to on.
It is currently enabled only for player characters and their mounts, and disabled in Cyrodiil, Imperial City, Battlegrounds and Group Dungeons and Trials.

;Miscellaneous UI Updates
We've added several new features and options, called out below, that will better improve your UI experience.
You can now enable buff and debuff trackers! These are found in Settings under the Combat section.
You can track debuffs on your target from everyone or just from yourself, or track buffs and debuffs on just yourself.
You can also toggle the visibility of permanent effects with no defined duration (such as Mundus Stones) and effects lasting longer than a minute (such as food buffs).
With the addition of this system, Major and Minor effects have updated with more consistent iconography. Viewing the effect in the character sheet will show the source of the buff.
Added a new setting to control the visibility of Attribute Bars. In addition to the current behavior, you can always hide them or always show them.
Added a new settings category, "Combat". This category includes combat-related UI elements such as "Combat Text" and "Resource Numbers".
Added a new section to the Collections menu called "Stories". This section includes both DLC and Chapters.
The introductory quest for Chapters can be started from this menu, similar to how it works for DLC.
Added a new section to the Activity Finder for Battlegrounds.

Available Templates
For this update, we are supplying three character templates with 630 Champion Points (one Template per Alliance). Much like previous PTS cycles, you will have wayshrines unlocked in every zone's capital city (excluding starter zones). You will have all the same items available from the previous PTS testing cycle for Homestead, in addition to some new items made available in Morrowind:
The template contains a new item in your inventory, "Battleground Sets". This crate contains further crates, each of which houses the armor, weapons, and jewelry for item sets that can be earned and purchased by participating in Battlegrounds.
The container for Trials item sets has been updated, and now includes the item sets found in the Halls of Fabrication.
The container for Overland item sets has been updated, and now includes the item sets found in Vvardenfell proper.
The Crafter's Limitless Library, found within the Ultimate Crafting Crate, now includes the new Motifs found in Morrowind: Ashlander, Buoyant Armiger, Militant Ordinator, and Morag Tong.
Similarly, the Traveled Crafter's Crate now contains the style items needed to craft in these styles.
Much like with the Dragonknight, Templar, Nightblade, and Sorcerer classes, creating a Warden with these templates will start you with all class skill lines and individual skills fully maxed out.

Combat & Gameplay
;Resource Recovery Changes
Combat in ESO is, and has always been, about fast-paced action where resource management plays a large part in performing effectively. Player abilities in ESO specifically do not have cooldowns for this very reason - resource management is key and is a core pillar of the system. Due to the number of balance changes we have made over time, this core pillar of resource management has become somewhat trivial; it's become easier than ever to have nearly infinite sustainability while still being fully maximized for damage.

As such, some significant changes to resource recovery are being made. In general, each of the changes falls into one of four major categories:
Restores based on the maximum resource pool - These abilities were simply too effective once you obtained a significant pool size.
Cost reduction & recovery passives - Several of these passives were over-performing and have been adjusted.
Group based buffs/synergies - Several of these abilities were near-mandatory in end-game situations and have been adjusted.
Resource spend/gain rates - Abilities that cost either too much or too little were adjusted to ensure that each class and build type are spending and gaining resources at roughly the same rate.
Our goal with these changes is to have a combat system that reinforces decision making and resource management. Having players make choices between abilities, buffs and gear that provide more damage, or ones that provide more resource sustain, ultimately helps ensure that ESO's combat stays balanced and healthy for years to come.

General
Fixed numerous ability tooltips for grammar, spelling, and formatting. Any significant tooltip revisions will be called out specifically below.
Synergy prompts will now display the icon of the ability that granted the synergy.
Fixed an issue where abilities and bonuses that allow you to ignore the Movement Speed penalty from sneak would stack, causing you to sneak at extremely high speeds.
Reduced the duration of the charge snare to 0.5 seconds from 0.75 seconds, and reduced the effectiveness of the charge snare to a 30% snare from 60%.
Developer Comments: Reducing the duration and strength of the charge snare ensures that charge abilities still reliably reach their target while making it less punishing for the charge victim, especially if they are being charged by multiple different enemies.
Reduced the cooldown for being charged Stamina or Magicka to block an attack to 0.25 seconds from 0.5 seconds.
Developer Comments: Due to how powerful Block is, being able to near-permanently block numerous attacks was posing significant balance issues. In PvP situations, this change will provide more counterplay against targets trying to block all of your attacks – you can rapidly attack them in order to drain their Stamina faster. In PvE encounters, this will encourage tanks to use Block more tactically for the larger, more deadly hits.
Sneak attacks no longer grant a bonus to Critical Damage when used against other players. Sneak attacks will continue to guarantee a Critical Strike and stun the target, and will also still grant a bonus to Critical Damage when used against monsters.
Developer Comments: Even though Sneak attacks currently have a lower Critical Damage bonus against players than against monsters, they still allow you to burst another player down in a matter of seconds without granting them enough time to react. Removing the Critical Damage bonus against players grants victims of sneak attacks more counterplay.
Roll Dodge now grants a 2 second immunity to immobilizations after the roll is complete.
Developer Comments: Roll Dodge providing a brief immunity to roots should prevent situations where enemies are able to repeatedly cast root abilities to completely prevent you from moving.
Stamina abilities are now universally 15% cheaper than their Magicka counterparts, originally being 20% cheaper. This includes class abilities that morph into Stamina abilities, in addition to the Weapon Skill Line passive abilities which reduce the cost of abilities in that Skill Line (Balanced Blade, Controlled Fury, etc.)
Experience-boosting consumable items, such as Crown Experience Scrolls, Psijic Ambrosia, Aetherial Ambrosia, and Mythic Aetherial Ambrosia, can now be used while mounted without causing you to dismount.

Buffs and Debuffs
Fixed an issue where consuming a potion of Magicka, Stamina, or Health would not correctly refresh the effect duration for the Major Fortitude, Major Endurance, or Major Intellect buffs.
Minor Magickasteal: Reduced the amount of Magicka this debuff restores to the attacker to 300 Magicka from 400 Magicka.

Dragonknight
Ardent Flame
Inferno: Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 33%.
Lava Whip: Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 10%.
Earthen Heart
Battle Roar: This passive ability now restores an equal amount of Health, Magicka, and Stamina when you use an Ultimate ability, and the amounts are now based on your character level instead of your Max Resource(s).
Developer Comments: This will be a buff for each particular resource if your maximum is below 26,000, and a reduction if it is above. This will generally result in a buff to overall resources restored, but a reduction to the specific resource you are stacking.
Helping Hands: This passive ability now restores Stamina based on your character level instead of your Max Stamina.
Developer Comments: This will be a buff if your Maximum Stamina is below 19,800 and a reduction if it is above.
Igneous Shield (Obsidian Shield morph): The Major Mending buff granted by this morph is now tied to your own damage shield. If the damage shield is removed, the Major Mending bonus will also be removed.
''Developer Comment: Major Mending is an extremely potent buff category for healing. The ease at which you are able to maintain it creates a system where only extreme damage can kill you because your health bar rapidly swings from near-empty to full. Adjusting the uptime on Igneous Shield's Major Mending means you will need to think more tactically about when to use your healing abilities while also giving enemies counterplay towards stopping them.''
Obsidian Shard (Stonefist morph): Fixed an issue where the friendly heal from this morph could be dodged.

Nightblade
Shadow
Shadow Cloak: Fixed an issue where the invisibility from this ability and its morphs was being broken by numerous abilities including Reflective Light, Silver Shards, and Burning Talons' damage over time effect.
Shadow Image (Summon Shade morph): Fixed an issue where the pet summoned by this morph was not critically striking based on your Spell Critical.
Siphoning
Leeching Strikes (Siphoning Strikes morph): This morph now converts the ability into a Stamina ability and causes your Light and Heavy Attacks to restore Stamina based on your character level.
Siphoning Attacks (Siphoning Strikes morph): This morph now causes your Light and Heavy Attacks to also restore Magicka based on your character level.
Siphoning Strikes:
This ability now causes your Light and Heavy Attacks to restore Health instead of Magicka or Stamina.
Increased the duration of this ability and its morphs to 20 seconds from 15 seconds.
Developer Comments: This is a significant reduction to the Magicka and Stamina restored by these abilities, but the addition of Health restore should give Nightblades more healing to improve their survivability.

Sorcerer
Dark Magic
Dark Exchange: This ability and its morphs now have 0.2 seconds of animation blending time at the end of their cast.
Developer Comments: All cast time and channeled abilities have 0.2 seconds after their cast is complete where you cannot cast another ability while the animations complete. This change makes Dark Exchange consistent with them.

Templar
Aedric Spear
Spear Shards: The synergy from this ability and its morphs now restore Stamina or Magicka, whichever percentage is lower. The amount restored is now based on your character level instead of your Max Resource. The synergy also has a shared cooldown with the Necrotic Orb synergy.
Luminous Shards (Spear Shards morph): This morph now causes the synergy to also restore an equal amount of Magicka or Stamina to the casting Templar, with a 20-second cooldown.
Developer Comments: This reduces the need to have a Templar to constantly feed Stamina to your Stamina DPS and Tank, while making the Spear Shards synergy more useful to Magicka builds.
Dawn's Wrath
Eclipse:
This ability and its morphs now last for 3.5 seconds, down from 6 seconds, but can no longer be removed with Break Free. After the effect ends, enemies will gain CC-immunity.
Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 20%.
Power of the Light (Backlash morph): Fixed an issue where the damage from this morph could be dodged.
Purifying Light (Backlash morph): Fixed an issue where the heal from this morph could not critically strike.
Restoring Light
Mending: This passive ability now increases the healing done by Restoring Light abilities by 6/12% based on the target's missing health, up from 5/10%.
Repentance (Restoring Aura| morph): This morph now restores Health and Stamina based on your character level instead of your Max Resource. It also only restores Stamina to the casting Templar, but continues to restore Health to the casting Templar and his allies.
Developer Comments: This will be a buff if your Maximum Stamina is below 29,700 and a nerf if it is above.
Rushed Ceremony: This ability and its morphs now heal friendly targets in a 180 degree cone in front of you, instead of all targets in a radius around you.
Developer Comments: Rushed Ceremony has been an extremely potent heal, and we wanted to adjust its effectiveness without making the ability heal for less. With these goals in mind, we made it so the ability only heals targets in front of the Templar. This makes the ability require more strategic positioning and gives the healer more control over who gets healed. You can now position yourself to ensure an ally being attacked will be healed, rather than another player standing in the back.
Sacred Ground: This passive ability now grants Minor Mending instead of Major Mending when you are standing in your Cleansing Ritual, Rune Focus, or Rite of Passage areas of effect.
''Developer Comments: With a similar goal to reducing uptime on Major Mending as noted with the Igneous Shield change, Templars having 100% uptime on Major Mending by just standing within their areas of protection is stronger than we'd like and is one of the reasons they are the most desirable healer in endgame situations. We've changed the bonus to Minor Mending instead, but have increased the bonus from the Mending passive to compensate slightly.

Weapon
Two Handed
Reverse Slash: Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 27%.
Dual Wield
Twin Slashes: Increased the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 60%.
Bow
Rapid Fire:
Updated the visual effects on this ability and the Toxic Barrage morph.
Fixed an issue where this ability and the Toxic Barrage morph would ignore line of sight.
Volley: Increased the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 30%.

Armor
Light Armor
Swapped the Evocation and Recovery passives in the Skill Line window.
Evocation: This is now a 2-point passive, originally 3-points. It now reduces the cost of your Magicka abilities by 1/2% per piece of Light Armor, down from 1/2/3%.
Recovery: This is now a 3-point passive, originally 2-points. It now increases your Magicka Recovery by 2/3/4% per piece of Light Armor, instead of 2/4%.
Medium Armor
Wind Walker: This passive ability now reduces the cost of your Stamina abilities by 1/2% per piece of Medium Armor, down from 2/3%.
Heavy Armor
Constitution: Reduced the Magicka and Stamina restored by this passive ability by approximately 42%.

World
Soul Magic
Shatter Soul (Soul Assault morph): Fixed an issue where Rank IV of this morph could be removed by Purge.

Guild
Undaunted
Mystic Orb (Necrotic Orb morph): This morph now increases the damage the orb deals.
Necrotic Orb: The synergy from this ability and its morphs now restore Stamina or Magicka to the synergy-user, whichever percentage is lower. The amount restored is now based on your character level instead of your Max Resource. The synergy also has a shared cooldown with the Spear Shards synergy.
Developer Comments: This allows classes other than Templars to bring a powerful resource restore synergy to the group as a substitute to Spear Shards.

Alliance War
Assault
Vigor: Increased the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 30%.
Developer Comments: Vigor was too cheap for an area of effect healing ability, so we've increased its cost so there is more of an impact to keeping the heal over time buff active.
Caltrops:
Multiple player characters can now stack this ability and its morphs in the same area and damage the same target.
Reduced the size of this ability and its morphs to 8 meters from 12 meters.
Reduced the duration of this ability and its morphs to 12 seconds from 30 seconds.
Reduced the cost of this ability and its morphs by approximately 50%.
Increased the damage of this ability and its morphs by approximately 75%.
Developer Comments: The changes to Caltrops allow it to behave more like a standard ground-targeted damage over time ability, such as Lightning Splash or Volley. This will help improve Stamina builds' sustained single target and area of effect damage in dungeons and Trials.

Racial
Argonian Skills
Resourceful: This passive ability now restores Health, Magicka, and Stamina based on your character level instead of your Max Resource.
Developer Comments: This will be a buff for each particular resource if your maximum is below 38,500 and a nerf if it is above.
Redguard Skills
Adrenaline Rush: This passive ability now restores Stamina based on your character level instead of your Max Stamina.
Developer Comments: This will be a buff is your maximum resource is below 15,840 and a nerf if it is above.''

Champion System

;Champion System Rebalancing
The Champion System has received three major rebalancing efforts this update:
Categorized and standardized the 100-point values
Made the passive values more frontloaded
Adjusted and redesigned several passives so there is now a counter to each major category of Champion passive
First, to improve diversity in points spent, many Champion ability 100-point values have been adjusted. Stronger, more globally-useful passives such as Mighty, Quick Recovery, and Mooncalf have had their end-point values reduced. Moderately powerful passives such as Thaumaturge, Precise Strikes, and Bastion remain the same. Weaker, more niche passives such as Expert Defender, Sprinter, or Bashing Focus have had their end-point values increased. Below is a list of all Champion abilities and their new 100-point values:
15%: Hardy, Elemental Defender, Quick Recovery, Siphoner, Mooncalf, Arcanist, Health, Tenacity, Tumbling, Blessed, Elemental Expert, Mighty
25%: Ironclad, Thick Skinned, Bastion, Warlord, Shadow Ward, Elfborn, Shattering Blows, Master-at-Arms, Thaumaturge, Precise Strikes
35%: Expert Defender, Sprinter, Bashing Focus, Shade, Physical Weapon Expert, Staff Expert
55%: Befoul
5280: Spell Shield, Light Armor Focus, Medium Armor Focus, Heavy Armor Focus, Spell Erosion, Piercing
1650: Resistant
In order to lower the gap between players with high and low CP, all Champion passive values are now significantly more frontloaded. This means that earlier points are worth much more, while later points are worth much less. In general, at the halfway mark of 50 points invested, you will obtain roughly 75% of an individual Champion ability's total bonus (for example, at 50 points invested in Thaumaturge, you will have an 18.75% bonus to your damage over time effects). This new value curve also applies to the Health, Magicka, and Stamina gains by investing in the red, blue, and green constellations.

This change is designed to discourage allotting all of your Champion Points into any single star, and should encourage more varied and interesting Champion Point spending. You can still choose to invest 100 points into a particular passive, but it comes at a much larger opportunity cost of not investing points elsewhere. This also means players with lower CP will see better initial returns and will not be quite as far behind a player with much higher CP.
General
Updated tooltips for all 10, 30, 70, and 120-point unlock passive abilities to better reflect their functionality.
Champion passive abilities now display their bonuses to the hundredth decimal place instead of the tenth.
The Health, Magicka, and Stamina percentage increases from investing in the red, blue, and green constellations now cap at 20%, obtained by reaching CP300 (100 in each constellation).
Developer Comments: The current attribute increase is 19.88% at CP600. Players at the CP cap will see a slight increase in stats, while players under the CP cap will see a significantly increase in stats due to it being more frontloaded as noted in the explanation above.
The Atronach
Bow Expert:
Renamed this passive to Master-at-Arms.
This passive ability now increases your damage done with direct damage attacks, instead of increasing your Light and Heavy Attack damage with Bows.
Note: The old effect has been rolled into Physical Weapon Expert, and this is now the antithesis of Ironclad.
Melee Weapon Expert:
Renamed this ability to Physical Weapon Expert.
This passive ability now also increases your Light and Heavy Attack damage with Bows, along with all other Stamina-based weapons.
The Shadow
Tumbling: This passive ability now only reduces the cost of Roll Dodge, and no longer reduces the cost of Break Free.
The Steed
Ironclad: This passive ability now reduces the damage you take from direct damage attacks, instead of reducing the duration of crowd control abilities used against you.
Note: A new antithesis to this has been created with the old Bow Expert (Master-at-Arms) passive ability.
The Tower
Magician:
Renamed this passive to Siphoner.
This passive ability now reduces the enemy's Health, Magicka, and Stamina Recovery for 3 seconds when you damage them with a Light or Heavy Attack, instead of reducing the cost of your Magicka abilities.
Note: This is now the antithesis of Healthy, Arcanist, and Mooncalf.
Warlord: This passive ability now reduces the cost of Break Free, instead of reducing the cost of your Stamina abilities.

Monsters
The following critters no longer have any collision:
Bear Cubs
Daggerbacks
Dogs
Goats
Pigs
Sheep
Elks found grazing through the world now have larger collision.

Crafting & Economy
General

Adjusted the names and descriptions of the Altmer, Bosmer, and Dunmer motifs and style items to High Elf, Wood Elf, and Dark Elf, to improve consistency with other motifs.
Crafting Writ boards in found in Orisinium, Craglorn, and Hew's Bane no longer claim to have quests for players lower than level six.

Alchemy
Fixed an issue that prevented low level monsters from dropping oils as often intended.

Blacksmithing
Corrected the name of the "Diagram: Dark Elf Brazier, Ringed" to "Diagram: Dark Elf Cauldron, Ringed", to match the actual furnishing it teaches you to craft.

Clothing
Corrected the name of the "Pattern: Breton Carpet, Bordered" to "Pattern: Breton Runner, Bordered", to match the actual furnishing it teaches you to craft.

Enchanting
If you have access to the craft bag, you no longer require empty inventory slots to deconstruct glyphs at an enchanting station.

Guild Traders
Fixed an issue that led drink recipes to display as food recipes on Guild Traders.
Fixed an issue that allowed locked equipment to be sold on Guild Traders.

Master Writs
Sealed Writs now display their target item and Writ Voucher reward at all times, even when inside of a container.
The drop rate for Sealed Enchanting Writs now scales more smoothly with your number of known rune translations.
Note: The maximum drop rate is unchanged.
Updated all Master Writs to specify the tradeskill in question when turning goods in to Rolis Hlaalu.
Sealed Writs no longer automatically offer you their quest the moment you first acquire them. You can still use the Sealed Writ at any time to start the quest.

Motifs
Fixed an issue where the Skinchanger style item, Wolfsbane Incense, could be sold to merchants for gold.

Provisioning
Skavenger critters, found in City of Ash and Craglorn, now drop Small Game when killed.
Adjusted the ingredients for the "Argonian Lanterns, String" and "Argonian Lanterns, Strand" Provisioning patterns to improve consistency.

Woodworking
Fixed an issue where the blueprints for "High Elf Shelf, Short" and "High Elf Shelf, Long" were swapped, and produced the wrong item. The short recipe now produces the short item, and the long recipe now produces the long item. As expected!
Increased the drop rate for the "Dunmer Chair, Angled" blueprint to align it with the drop rates compared to other green Dunmer blueprints.

Crown Store & Crown Crates
General
You can now preview appearance options that would not normally be accessible to your race or gender.
The options will be modeled on a wooden mannequin or plaster bust of the appropriate race and gender, allowing you to get a closer look without having to change characters.
Fixed an issue that caused the Major Endurance effect from the Crown Warrior's Elixir to incorrectly overwrite Major Fortitude effects (and stack with other sources of Major Endurance.) This also corrects the tooltip text on the effect.
Corrected an icon mismatch on the Major Brutality effect from Crown Warrior's Elixirs.

Art & Animation
Fixed an issue where the rocks from the Storm Atronach Senche and Storm Atronach Camel were not animating properly.
The Storm Atronach Camel mount's eyes will now be placed properly on its face.
Fixed an issue where the right front leg from the Great Elk mount would bend unnaturally and painfully while rearing up.
The Great Elk mount no longer appears to have an overbite.
Fixed an issue where you could see through the left leg of the Scarecrow Spectre polymorph.

Fixed a visual issue with the Black Senche Panther Mount's saddle.

Personalities
General
Props used with personalities will now appear correctly after you emerge from a body of water.
Duchess
Fixed an issue where the /idle animations would not display properly.

Dungeons & Group Content
General
Increased the reputation reward for completing Undaunted Pledges on Normal difficulty.
You now get the same amount of reputation from any pledge that awards a single Undaunted Key, regardless of whether it was completed on Normal or Veteran difficulty.
Completing the Veteran Challenge and receiving two undaunted keys continues to award more reputation.

Exploration & Itemization
General
Improved the loot you receive for killing quest bosses. You will now always receive an item the first time you kill a quest boss, with an increasing chance at the item being green or better quality depending on the boss's deadliness. At the top end, quest bosses have a small chance to instead drop a random set item.
Fixed an issue where you could skip a collectible Champion Rank reward when gaining a large amount of experience.
Any Item Set that had a 2, 3, or 4-piece bonus that granted either Spell Resistance or Physical Resistance has had that value increased by roughly 35%.
Treasure maps no longer display a required level as they can always be used regardless of level.
Fixed an issue where certain container items, such as the Wet Gunny Sack, were not properly categorized as consumables.

Achievements
The Howling Sepulchers Explorer: Akiirdal no longer awards this achievement to everyone in Howling Sepulcher every time he's killed.
Troll's Pick Explorer: Fixed an issue where this achievement could be completed by defeating Zizzikkiz'Tk in Ilthag's Undertower.

Consumables
All cost poisons have been reduced in effectiveness. Instead of increasing enemy resource costs by 60%, they now only increase enemy resource costs by 30%.
Developer Comments: Due to the significant global rebalancing of resource recovery abilities, cost poisons have been reduced in effectiveness.

Dungeons & Trials
Leaderboard rewards for the Trial of the Week now match that specific Trial instead of being based on rewards from just Maw of Lorkhaj.
Fixed an issued where Mad Mortine in Spindleclutch II would award more items than intended under very specific circumstances.
Fixed an issue where Hollow Heart, from Blackheart Haven, had a chance to drop the items from Dubroze, from Elden Hollow. Hollow Heart will now instead have a chance to drop the Hollow-Heart Pendant, as originally intended.
Updated the text of the Leaderboard reward mail for Dragonstar Arena to specifically indicate that it is contains rewards associated with Dragonstar Arena.

Holiday Events
Jesters Festival Dazzlers can no longer be used while mounted as using them while on your mount was leading to strange animation results.
Fixed an issue where an active effect would appear on your character sheet with every use of a Jester's Festival cherry blossom-throwing collectible or item.

Item Sets
Fixed an issue that allowed Rings and Bands of the Shadow Walker, as well as Rings of the Hawk's Eye, to appear with Armor enchantments instead of Jewelry enchantments.
This fix is retroactive, and will adjust any remaining incorrect enchantments on these rings to enchantments of the appropriate type.
Bone Pirate Tatters: Reduced the Stamina Recovery granted by this item set by 50% (150 Stamina Recovery at Gold CP160, down from 300).
Engine Guardian: Fixed an issue where some parts of the visual effects from the health beam proc were not displaying correctly.
Eyes of Mara: Fixed an issue where this item set was not reducing the cost of Panacea and its morphs.
Fasalla's Guile: This item set now passively applies Minor Defile for 2 seconds to any enemy that comes within 5 meters of you.
''Developer Comments: Due to the significant buff to the Befoul Champion passive, Fasalla's Guile was too powerful for a healing reduction item set that stacked with Minor and Major Defile.''
Hircine's Veneer: Increased the Stamina Recovery bonus granted by this item set to 12% from 10%.
Molag Kena:
Fixed an issue where the Overkill proc from this set would still trigger even when you did not perform 2 consecutive Light Attacks.
Reduced the Overkill cost penalty to 20% from 33%.
''Developer Comments: This fixes a long-standing issue with Molag Kena where you were able to proc the Overkill bonus through unintended means. Since many players have become used to the current behavior in addition to the significant resource recovery changes, we've reduced the penalty of Overkill to compensate.
Pirate Skeleton: Reduced the proc chance of this item set to a 5% chance when you take damage from a 6% chance.
Developer Comments: Because this set was designed more for tanks, reducing the proc chance on this item set will limit the uptime it has for players who aren't being hit very frequently.''
Robes of Alteration Mastery: Fixed an issue where this item set was not reducing the cost of Sprint, Bash, or Block.
Shalk Exoskeleton: Fixed an issue where this item set's Ultimate generation was causing you to become stuck in combat.
Sheer Venom: Fixed an issue where this item set's proc was being mitigated off the target's Spell Resistance instead of their Physical Resistance.
Stygian: This item set no longer increases your Spell Damage and Max Magicka by 20% while sneaking or invisible; instead, it increases your damage done with Magicka abilities by 20% while sneaking or invisible.
Swamp Raider: Fixed an issue where this item set's bonus would unexpectedly proc when dealing damage under specific circumstances.
Troll King: This item set now procs when you heal a friendly target and they are still below 50% Health, reduced originally from 60% Health.
Developer Comments: This item set was stronger than intended, and we wanted to reduce its power without changing the value of the Health Recovery it granted. Lowering the health threshold of the proc maintains the risk/reward gameplay of trying to maximize its uptime without it being too easy to maintain.
Twice-Born Star: Removing this set, or obtaining a third Mundus Stone buff while wearing this set, will now remove the older of the current two Mundus Stone buffs instead of the newest one.
Worm's Raiment: Decreased the Magicka ability cost reduction granted by this item set to 4% from 5%.
''Developer Comments: The reduction to this set (and the buff to Hircine's Veneer) will bring the average resource recovery per second closer in line with one another.''

Quests Rewards
Fixed an issue where loot from the Bad Man in Bad Man's Hallows would not correctly scale to your level.
Fixed an issue where Cadwell's Lost Robe, Er-Jaseen's Worn Jack, and the Unfinished Torment Cuirass were dropping from the Sealed Urn with enchantments inconsistent with their armor weight.
Cadwell's Lost Robe now has a default Magicka enchantment, Er-Jaseen's Worn Jack has a default enchantment of Stamina, and the Unfinished Torment Cuirass has a default Health enchantment now.
This will affect any of these items that have not been re-enchanted.
When you skip the Wailing Prison tutorial, you will now receive the Collar of Bones in addition to the other items you are guaranteed from running (or skipping) the tutorial.

Housing
General
Logging out in a home no longer requires you to wait ten seconds.
Fixed an issue that caused Assistants to not function in homes under some specific circumstances.
Mounts placed inside your home will now fidget periodically.
The collision for mounts in homes now more closely matches their collision of similar creatures outside of homes.
Items in the Purchase tab of the Housing Editor now indicate that they are Bind On Pickup prior to purchase.
Fixed an issue where various furnishers in Coldharbour and the Imperial City Sewers would refuse to speak with criminals.

Furnishings
Corrected the visuals for several furnishings that previously appeared to have missing textures on one side or which appeared hollow.
Fixed an issue that caused certain books to remove you from stealth when read inside a home.
Fixed an issue that allowed you to interact with furnishings while in combat.
Adjusted the icons for several furnishing items to better match their appearance.
Adjusted the furnishing behavior tags for a number of furnishing items to more accurately reflect their functionality.
Increased the price of the "Tree, Hardened Juniper" Home Goods furnishing to 250 gold from 100 gold, to match similar furnishings.
Adjusted the gold value of several furnishings to improve consistency.
The Alliance Hero Shield furnishings are now available at the Global Achievement Furnisher (Narwaawende in each alliance's capital city) for gold, in addition to their pre-existing availability on the Achievement Furnishers in Cyrodiil for AP.
Added swaying animations to several banner furnishings that were previously stationary.
Adjusted the descriptive text of the Hope of Rivenspire achievement furnishing to better match its appearance.
Added collision to the "Imperial Cauldron, Pitch-Filled" furnishing item.
Fixed an issue where the Surplus Covenant Iceball Trebuchet was not displaying a loaded iceball.
The achievement furnishing item "Veloth's Reliquary" can now be assembled or disassembled.
Renamed the green-quality "Orcish Table, Kitchen" to "Orcish Table, Braced Kitchen" due to another table of blue quality sharing the same name.
Renamed the green-quality "Orcish Table, Formal" to "Orcish Table, Braced Formal" due to another table of blue quality sharing the same name.
The "Dark Anchor Pinion" achievement furnishing no longer appears offset from your cursor when you place it.
Please note that this change will cause any previously placed Dark Anchor Pinions to appear at a lower height. You may wish to retrieve and place them again to set them to their desired location.
Fixed a camera zooming issue that occurred when previewing the "Dark Anchor Pinion" furnishing.
Adjusted the collision on several existing bookcases in order to allow for greater flexibility when placing books with Snap-To-Collision turned on. This also slightly improves the way the shelves are lit.
Corrected the placement of the light source for the "Nibenese Lantern, Imperial City" furnishing.
Improved the descriptions for Target Skeletons to better explain their behavior.
Adjusted the description of the "Veiled Crystal" achievement furnishing to more closely match its appearance.
You can now select and reclaim the listed items from each of the following furnished homes:
Autumn's Gate
Painting of a Swamp
Daggerfall Outlook
Painting of a Cottage
Painting of Crags
Paint of a Desert
Painting of a Forest
Painting of Mountains
Painting of a Tree
