What to expect from Elder Scrolls Online’s upcoming daily reward system

There are plenty of juicy new features coming to The Elder Scrolls Online with its next big update other than just the Summerset expansion. For example, there’s the new daily login system, which offers you both smaller and larger rewards. The trick is that the system rewards you with something when you log in, but also with larger cumulative rewards. So if you miss a day, you can often still get the big cumulative rewards (like the new pet added with the update) but you might be out of luck if you miss a whole week.

The patch is also bringing a number of item changes. For example, two-handed weapons will now count as two items for item set bonuses, hopefully making sets easier to build and maintain even with a two-handed sword. Several abilities have also gained new added effects, such as a healing effect added to Ash Cloud and a Block Effectiveness buff added to Bound Armor. Light and Heavy attacks have also been more effectively tied to their roles of dealing damage and refilling resources, respectively. It should make the game’s combat more fun when the patch arrives.
