Crime Wave Event

The Crime Wave is a mini Event that is coming to ESO after Update 45! The Event rewards stealing in ESO with more Gold and unique items. You cannot earn Event Tickets from this Event though. Using a dedicated Thief Build is going to make your life easier and help you enjoy this mini event more.

Reaper Strikes

Reaper Strikes are Worm Cult themed Overland encounters, that replace Dark Fissures throughout the base game! Completing those encounters, allows you to buy a unique furnishing and unlock a new Skill Style!

These are the major changes and additions coming to ESO with Update 45 but there are a lot more smaller features as well, like Increased Mundus visibility on Character and Inventory UI screens, Player Response Options, first stages of Console Add-on Support and more!
