With this week’s official announcement of Elder Scrolls Online’s 2021 roadmap, the Gates of Oblivion-themed year has begun. While we have a while to wait before Blackwood arrives, the first batch of Oblivion content is already on the test server.
ZeniMax posted the patch notes for Update 29, which is divided up between the paid DLC dungeons (Black Drake Villa and The Cauldron) and a batch of free stuff. Said free stuff includes an update to the champion point system, passive bonuses from armor, and several housing improvements. Now, players will be able to fast travel outside of their homes, which automatically makes ZeniMax studio of the year in this author’s opinion.
And if you can’t even bear waiting for that patch to come, then distract yourself with the Midyear Mayhem PvP event which is running through February 9th: “During this action-packed event, you can earn bonus rewards when battling your fellow players in PvP activities, including double XP and alliance points and event-specific collectibles, achievements, and titles.”
