Thank you, ESO devs, for this simple, but highly satisfying change! Altmer casters still retain the advantage for overall spell damage, but Dunmer casters now have a solid niche as pyromancers.

Yup. This is pretty sweet.

Not to toot my own horn, but I was one of the ones who pointed out the problem with the prior implementation of the passive (along with Mystborn, who actually made a video demonstrating it). The way it was before, only Spell Power with fire abilities got buffed. So it was working for things like Dragon Knight skills, Fire Rune from the Mages Guild, and certain Templar abilities, but not for Fire Staff abilites, which would be confusing to anyone who didn't know that Fire Staves use Weapon Power rather than Spell Power to determine damage.

Anyway, glad they changed it.

ZOS proves once again that they're amazing at listening to feedback.

THANK YOU !

I am happy with the change, even though my main is going to be an Altmer. It makes much more sense.

Now to give Argonians something stealthy and we are done.

This is great news for my dunmer pyromancer! I was planning on making one before, so this is icing on the cake.

ZOS needs to buff the templars back to where they need to be.

So... what does this mean? Fire damage is increased under the passive now?

Don't know if I should be excited. I planned on using fire staff on my Dunmer, does that mean I get the damage increase?
