What are the most important changes that affect all players?

Together with the DLC Waking Flame, the update 31 relates to all players of the MMORPG - regardless of whether a player has ESO + or the DLC. In addition, at the beginning of the year, there was an important change to the champion points, which will be further refined with this update.

Adaptation of champion points (CP)

With the update 29 Flames of Ambition, the CP system was fundamentally redesigned. It is divided into 3 attributes for which you can choose 4 active champion points. A more detailed explanation of the adjustments can be found here:

The change in the red tree concerns the following points:

• Despite the survivor : mystical tenacity (50), mercilessness (50), escape from pain (50), stock by suffering (50)
• Wind runners : hasty (16), refreshing step (50), speed (50), hunting solution (50)

Changes to the combat system

All passive skills will be granted both attribute types in the future. This concerns magic and arms force, but also physical resistance and magic resistance.

Changes in the PVP area Cyrodiil

Adaptation of player skills: camouflage and invisibility are only canceled if damage causes direct damage, mass controls (stunning or movement inability) causes or revealing effects (master hunters, revealing blazing).

These players will no longer be opponents in the future:

• Skills with damage over time (dots)
• Surface effects with damage over time (Aoes)

In addition, there will be a short time window, in which camouflaged / invisible opponents can not be detected directly by individual skills after this effect.

In the past few months, there were a lot more and more in the PVP area under the performance tests. This applies to the upcoming update:

In addition, the effect of prismatic glyphs is changed. In order for the prismatic weapons enchants to fit better on the topic of triple regeneration in the future, they will (similar to lifeline withdrawal or Magickaraub) to escape the target all three resources.
