Dark Brotherhood
Update 10 - Released: May 31, 2016 - PC/Mac, Consoles - Patch Notes
This update contains the iconic cities of Anvil and Kvatch, but is untouched by the Alliance war that rages on in the rest of the province. Which makes it a perfect setting for the Dark Brotherhood that has settled down between the two cities in the Gold Coast. You will be able to learn the Blade of Woe skill, which gives you the ability to instantly kill almost any NPC-people, if you stand behind them.
Also, something absolutely noteworthy here and which changed the game in many positive ways was the introduction of the Crafting Bag. It came for everyone that was subscribed to ESO Plus and is pretty much a bottomless bag in which all crafting items can be stored.
Also, Veteran Ranks were removed with this update, making everyone able to only reach Level 50 and returning the former Veteran ranks into Champion Points.
