Morrowind expansion discussion, Spoilerific discussion of the new Morrowind content Options

[Acadian]

Going through the patch notes regarding CP changes introduced with the MW expansion today. I’ve no doubt tweaks will come, but for now and to help me with initial CP reallocation, I took some notes:

New CP cap is 630.

Health, stamina, magicak CP gains are now capped at CP300 with +20% vs the old cap of 20% at CP600.

Gains are on a diminishing returns curve. Generally, 50 points = about 75% of the benefit.


100 points = +15%:
Hardy, Elemenal Defender, Quick Recovery, Siphoner, Mooncalf, Arcanist, Health, Tenacity, Tumbling, Blessed, Elemental Expert, Mighty.

100 points = +25%:
Ironclad, Thickskin, Bastion, Warlord, Shadowward, Elfbain, Shattering blows, Master at Arms, Thaumatage, Precise Strikes.

100 points = +35%:
Expert Defender, Sprinter, Bashing focus, Shade, Physical Weapons Expert, Staff Expert.

100 points = +55%: Befoul.

100 points = +5280:
Spell shield, Light armor focus, Medium armor focus, Heavy armor focus. Spell erosion, Piercing.

100 points = +1650: Resistant.

Edit: Oops. When I moved this post from another thread to here, somehow it made me the thread originator. I can't delete it to fix since that would delete the thread. Oh well. My intent was simply to add this post to hazmick's excellent new thread.

I must be a real cheapskate. I haven't bought the expansion yet. I really want it, I'm sure it is going to worth the money, and I think the game has earned my support, but I have to be careful how much I spend right now. I could afford the game, but with grad school coming up I just have to be wary about any purchases I make. I've had to spend a bunch of money on stuff lately too.

I probably could afford to buy the expansion, but I'm going to hold off for now. I definitely plan to get it in the near future though. It's going to be awesome seeing those familiar sights and faces again. Well, except for Vivec. [censored] that guy. Pretty cool that Divayth Fyr is in the game though.

I looked for Divayth Fyr the first time I went there on the PTS, then walked right by him - didn't recognize him from the 1000 year old mer we meet in the original Morrowind, lol.

Anyways, it seems that Morrowind is currently selling for 18% off on quite a few of the game retail websites on Zenimax's "official" list. Question is, do I go for it or wait to see if it drops any more? The thing officially goes live next week so idk. Apparently I got till release to decide if GamersGate's countdown clock is any indication.

EDIT; Welp, I got it. Still gonna wait a bit to start, tho

WOO HOO!
