Update 34Edit

New Features / Updates / Big ChangesEdit

HIGH ISLE CHAPTEREdit

New Zone – High IsleEdit

Set sail for adventure in the Systres Archipelago! In this update, you'll travel to High Isle and Amenos, two of the four islands southwest of Tamriel.

  • To begin your travels to High Isle, you can choose from among the following:
    • Create a new character and play through the Tutorial
    • Enter the zone with an existing character by one of the following means:
      • Use a Wayshrine to enter High Isle near the city of Gonfalon Bay
      • Use a boat or cart outside Elden Root, Mournhold, or Wayrest to travel to the Gonfalon Docks
      • Travel to a friend who is already in High Isle
    • After you complete the Tutorial or otherwise arrive in High Isle, seek out the rogue Jakarn awaiting for your arrival at various locations in and around Gonfalon Bay. He'll ask you for help in the Main Story and send you to meet with Lady Arabelle Davaux inside the city.
    • In addition to the Main Story, the High Isle chapter includes the following activities:
      • Six delves, four on High Isle and two on nearby Amenos, each with its own Skyshard, boss, and associated content
      • Six challenging world bosses, including the terrifying Sable Knight occupying a ruined castle on High Isle, or the crafty Glemyos Wildhorn, a lord of the trickster faun race and master of their domain on Amenos
      • Two public dungeons: The ancient Spire of the Crimson Coin, a source of great legends and even greater treasures, and Ghost Haven Bay, the last refuge of long-dead pirates and their vengeful captains
      • Three new set crafting locations
      • Nine full-length Objective quests
      • Many independent content quests, unique distractions, and many other wilderness and city encounters throughout the zone
Volcanic Vents and Lava VentsEdit

The Systres Archipelago is something of an island paradise, but every paradise has its problems. Each island in the archipelago is volcanic, to a greater or lesser extent. Due to certain recent events, tectonic shifts plague High Isle and Amenos, resulting in huge Volcanic Vents and smaller Lava Vents appearing throughout the islands. You can seek out these ruptures and calm them, defeating the monsters that pour forth and helping local druids settle the violence bubbling up from below.

  • Seek out large Volcanic Vents and engage in group, overworld content as you assist the druids in their efforts to calm the eruption. Volcanic Vents will appear with an icon on your map when they are active!
  • Discover smaller Lava Vents and defeat the emerging enemies yourself or with friends.
  • Earn special rewards for defeating these creatures and keeping the Systres safe for another day!
Tales of TributeEdit

The new tactical card game, Tales of Tribute, has been growing in popularity in taverns across Tamriel and now you can learn how to play and unlock a fun new pastime! As you expand your collection and compete against others, you'll earn new cards, decks, furnishings, cosmetics, Transmute Crystals and more.

To begin, visit the Roister Club of Gonfalon Bay, in High Isle. There, speak with Brahgas who will get you started on your journey to becoming a Tribute Master. Once you've earned your starting decks, you'll be able to learn more about Tales of Tribute and rise through the club ranks, take on daily PvE and PvP challenges, compete in Tribute seasonal ranked play (beginning on June 8), or simply kick back at the local tavern and enjoy a friendly match with other heroes.

  • Patron Decks
    • Each collectible patron deck contains a unique patron token and associated deck of cards whose mechanics synergize.
    • Review your collected and soon-to-be collected patron decks in the 'Tales of Tribute Patrons' Collections tab. There, you'll see the powers offered by each patron, their starter card, base cards and upgrade cards.
    • Expand your game options and skills by acquiring new decks with a whole new set of cards and patron. Each deck has a set of unique cards and patron that thematically and mechanically will offer a host of new strategy opportunities when combined with other decks.
    • Select two of the four patron decks in a match and craft a strategy based around the cards and patrons you and your opponent bring to the game. A good player will have their plans ready, but the great players will be ready to adapt to the ebbs and flows of the game, adjusting to each situation and countering their opponent's strategies!
    • Patron Decks can be discovered in and around High Isle by partaking in activities, from public dungeons and world bosses to questing and incursions.
  • Cards
    • Every unlockable deck has some cards which can be replaced with new, more potent ones you may discover in Tamriel; some deck upgrade cards have abilities you won't find elsewhere.
    • These new cards can even be discovered or earned before you've unlocked their base deck, providing you with a little extra incentive to seek out those deck unlocks!
    • Winning in Tribute matches against others grants a variety of rewards, including gold, transmutation crystals, motifs, cosmetics and even clues toward discovering those shiny new upgrade cards.
  • Looking for a relaxed match for fun and profit? Queue up in the Activity Finder for a casual game against another player!
  • Ranked Seasons with hefty rewards and leaderboards will be available with the full launch of the High Isle Chapter.
Two New Companions: Ember & IsobelEdit

Two new Companions can be befriended in High Isle by completing associated Chapter content. Ember, the streetwise spellcaster, can be found at Tor Draioch just north of Gonfalon Bay. The honorable knight aspirant Isobel Veloise can be found at Castle Navire on the southwest coast of High Isle.

  • If you have access to the High Isle Chapter, you can unlock the two Companions through completing associated quests in the High Isle zone.
  • Once either objective is completed, the respective Companion collectible will be granted.
    • These collectibles can be found in the Collections menu under the Allies category, in the Companion subcategory.
    • You may have either a Companion or an Assistant active.
    • Companion collectibles may be activated from the Collections menu or quick slotted for ease of use.
    • Once unlocked, other characters on your account will need to also complete the associated introductory objective to utilize Ember or Isobel, but skill line, level progression and equipment are preserved on each Companion regardless which character summoned them.
  • Each Companion possesses a passive perk ability which benefits you while the Companion is active, which can be seen via the Companion menu. This perk may also be permanently unlocked via Companion achievement accomplishment.
    • Ember provides "Ember's Intuition" which provides a chance to acquire hidden wallets of gold when pickpocketing, while Isobel grants "Isobel's Grace" which gives a chance to recover the pack of a slain knight when defeating world bosses, which may contain various supplies.
New Trial – Dreadsail ReefEdit

Surrounded by jagged, shallow reefs and inhabited by fierce predators, this small islet on the far fringes of the Systres Archipelago was practically untouched by man or mer until the Dreadsail's Fleet Queen claimed it as her own. Take the fight to the Dreadsail pirates as part of the invasion force set to rid High Isle of this Maormer menace.

  • Dreadsail Reef is a 12-player Trial off the coast and can be reached via boat in the northwest section of High Isle.
  • The Trial includes a normal and challenging Veteran version.
  • There are unique Item Sets within the Trial including Perfected versions only found in the Veteran difficulty.

UPDATE 34 BASE GAMEEdit

Mundus Stones in ArmoryEdit

Mundus Stones have been added to the Armory system! Each Armory build will now save your current Mundus Stone and loading that build will grant you that Mundus Stone boon. The preview screen for each build slot will also display the Mundus Stone saved for that build.

To aid in the transition to this new feature, when your character first logs into the game, whatever Mundus Stone you currently have will be automatically applied to all of your builds. You can still manually update any particular build later by loading that build, obtaining the desired Mundus Stone, then saving the build.

And yes, the system supports builds that use the Twice-Born Star item set.

AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR)Edit

In Update 34 we have added support for FidelityFX Super Resolution 1.0. This upscaling technology is available for all graphics cards and can be used to improve performance for those who are bottlenecked by their GPU while playing ESO. This can be used to get straightforward improvements in framerate, or to allow you to enable more demanding graphics settings like our Screen Space GI while maintaining similar framerates to what you had before.

  • We recommend starting with Ultra Quality mode and lowering from there as needed as we have seen great performance gains with this alone, especially on older graphics cards.
  • FSR 1.0 works best with higher quality antialiasing; we recommend setting your antialiasing to TAA if you enable FSR, but we support using FSR with any antialiasing option.
Quickslot Wheel UpdatesEdit

We've added multiple additional utility quickselect wheels for collectible allies, mementos, emotes, and tools. You can tab between these wheels while holding the quickselect wheel keybind

  • Allies, mementos, emotes, and tools can be slotted to their corresponding wheels directly from their respective Collections menu category.
  • You can now assign any emote to the existing quickselect wheel.
  • The existing emote wheel when utilizing Gamepad Mode can now be used through the quickselect wheel keybind.
Choose Title Screen MusicEdit

You now have the ability to choose which title music theme plays on the game's login screen. In the Audio Settings tab, there is a new drop down labeled "Intro Music". Select which Chapter you'd like to listen to and just give it a few moments to swap over (the default will always play the most recent chapter's song). Listen to them all and pick your favorite!

New Accessibility ModeEdit

We've added a new pre-game screen, which appears prior to the login screen, that offers the option to select Accessibility Mode. When choosing this mode you will automatically be swapped to use the Gamepad UI, but the keybinds will be adjusted for whatever input is being used (keyboard or gamepad). If you decide you don't want to use this, you can disable in the Options menu.

You are now also able to move around all pre-game UI screens and elements using only digital inputs (such as keyboard or D-pad keypresses) or analog inputs (such a mouse or gamepad control stick).

We'll be adding more accessibility options and settings in future updates, so stay tuned!
