Update 11 Is On The PTS

Update 11, which includes the Shadows of the Hist DLC pack, is now available on the Public Test Server for PC/Mac.

The full patch notes are on the official forums.

Shadows of the Hist

The Shadows of the Hist DLC contains two new Group Dungeons in Shadowfen with an Argonian theme.

Cradle of Shadows

The Argonians of the Dark Brotherhood need your help against a cadre of rogue assassins who threaten to hurl all of Black Marsh into bloody chaos. Fight your way into the Cradle of Shadows to uncloak the secrets of the twisted Silken Ring!

Ruins of Mazzatun

Venture into Mazzatun, the “Puzzle City” of the Xit-Xaht tribe of Argonians, who have been forcing other Lizardfolk to work as slave labor on a project that has driven their masters … mad! Can you free them in time?

Item Sets

There are six new item sets with this DLC, with three dropping in Cradle of Shadows and three dropping in Ruins of Mazzatun.

There are also two new Monster Mask sets, one for each Group Dungeon.

Style Parlor

The Style Parlor is the new race, appearance and name change system for ESO and is based on the Crown Store.

Name Change

You can now buy a Name Change token from the Crown Store. Once purchased these tokens may be utilized at the character select screen to select a new name for one character. The token will not be consumed until a valid name is successfully chosen, and players canceling the change will retain their token accordingly.

Appearance Change

Appearance Change tokens allows for complete modification of the character’s appearance, including but not limited to hair styles and colors, adornments, face and body markings, facial features, eye color, age, body and face shape, as well as selected voice.

Race Change

Race Change tokens allows for a change in the character’s race and appearance. When changing your character’s race, any Skill Points spent on the Racial Skill Line will be refunded and the progress made in that Skill Line will be transferred to the new race.

Champion Point Cap

The Champion Point Cap has been raised to 531 in Update 11. You can continue to earn more Points above this cap however you can only allocate 531 at a time.
