The Update 44 base-game patch is now live on PC/Mac, and it introduces a host of changes, fixes, and additions to The Elder Scrolls Online.

Check out the full patch notes for Update 44 on our official forums. Follow this link for full patch notes.
New Features
The Update 44 base-game patch adds a ton of new features, challenges, and rewards to the game.
Battlegrounds Update
ESO’s fast-paced PvP experience, Battlegrounds, has undergone a series of dramatic changes designed to make the game mode (originally introduced with the Morrowind Chapter back in 2017) more competitive and fun for every type of player.
Changes include a shift from the original 4v4v4 to the new 4v4 and 8v8-sized matches, the addition of seven brand-new maps of various sizes, new rewards and mechanics, and a unique leaderboard for the 4v4 competitive-styled option.
To jump right into the action, use the Activity Finder, select Battlegrounds, and select your match size. No matter what kind of PvP player you are, you can enjoy the frenetic action of the new-look Battlegrounds—to glory!
New Companions
Update 44 also introduces two brand-new Companions for you to recruit and adventure with: Tanlorin and Zerith-var. The High Elf outcast Tanlorin mixes Dragonknight and Soul Magic abilities (the first Companion to do so). Zerith-var, on the other hand, is a Khajiit Necromancer from the distant past. Tanlorin and Zerith-var
Both Companions have their own passive abilities to unlock along with their own questlines and stories to tell, giving you the opportunity to discover more about these interesting adventuring allies.
Note that to unlock both new allies, you need to find them within the Companions section of the in-game Crown Store. They are listed as free for ESO Plus members or available for purchase with crowns if you don’t currently have an active membership. Once unlocked, you can find Tanlorin just outside Vulkhel Guard in Auridon and Zerith-var near Moonmont in Reaper’s March.
New Grimoire, Scripts, Skill Styles, and More
First introduced with the Gold Road Chapter and Update 42 in June, the Scribing System also continues to expand with Update 44. This includes a brand-new Grimoire to unlock and customize, called Banner Bearer. Banner Bearer is part of the Support Skill Line and grants you the ability to throw a banner on your back and buff your group’s abilities based on your chosen Focus. Master new abilities and styles
In addition to this new ability, 14 existing scripts are now applicable to nine launch Grimoires, and a selection of four new Skill Styles help you stand out on the battlefield. Skill Styles include a molten variant for the Puncture ability, a wildburn variant for Force Shock, and more.
You can acquire the new Banner Bearer Grimoire from Chronicler Firandil within the Scholarium. Check the patch notes for a complete list of Scribing additions. Don’t forget, you need access to the Gold Road Chapter to begin your Scribing journey.
Golden Pursuits
A new way to earn in-game collectibles, items, and currencies, Golden Pursuits is a new reward system included with Update 44. Highly variable, a Golden Pursuits campaign asks players to complete various tasks as they adventure in Tamriel with a series of rewards granted for specific milestones. Earn rewards with Golden Pursuits
The first Golden Pursuits campaign won’t be active until the middle of November, so keep an eye out for an official announcement and get ready to earn new in-game rewards.
Imperial City Changes
If you enjoy battling both your fellow players AND invading Daedra in the heart of the empire, the Imperial City has also undergone a few changes within its war-torn streets and sewers. This includes improvements to how Imperial Vaults work. For starters, Imperial City keys and key fragments convert to Imperial Fragments, and vault treasure chests become vendors.
In addition, many of the area’s existing vendors have enjoyed upgrades to their wares, including their quality and selection. With Update 44, plundering the capital has never been more rewarding!

Arriving in tandem with the above new features are a series of improvements, additions, and features that all ESO players will appreciate. This includes:
An increase of furnishing base materials in regular harvest nodes
HDR support for PC players

The addition of bonus PvP perks for ESO Plus members

A New Way to Earn Rewards
When designing Golden Pursuits, the team wanted to create new reasons to play and new ways for players to earn in-game rewards.
“Golden Pursuits are intended to give players the opportunity to earn extra rewards for trying out different systems and features,” explains Katie Yu, one of ESO’s Systems Designers. “They’re meant to highlight specific aspects of the game, or to support an event or theme. We want to ensure that players know exactly what they have the opportunity to earn and that they feel rewarded for completing the Golden Pursuit.”
While Daily Login Rewards are set every month, almost every aspect of a Golden Pursuits campaign can vary. This includes its ease or difficulty of activities, volume and quality of rewards, and even when they’re active and duration.
“Unlike many of the systems in ESO, Golden Pursuits don't operate on a regular daily or weekly cadence. There may be anywhere from days, to weeks, to months in between them, and Golden Pursuits will vary in length when they are live. They're meant to be exciting, spontaneous events. But don't worry, they're pretty difficult to miss: Golden Pursuits will always appear on the Announcement Panel and in the Group and Activity Finder when they're active.”
A Variety of Challenges
As mentioned above, each Golden Pursuits campaign will vary greatly in size and scope, and this variability will be reflected in the activities and rewards each individual campaign may offer.
“Generally, the activities will be very similar to what players have been seeing from Endeavors,” says Yu. “The number can vary—some Golden Pursuits may offer only a few activities, while others may provide more options for players to peruse before deciding how they want to earn their rewards. Broadly, Golden Pursuits activities are meant to highlight different parts of the game, whether that's encouraging players to engage in some friendly PvP, or try out Housing and Home Tours, or even simply explore what the wide world of Tamriel has to offer.” Pursue new challenges
When it comes to the individual rewards, it was important to the team that Golden Pursuits campaigns varied the kinds of things you can earn.
“Players can expect to see mounts, pets, costumes, furnishings—the list goes on,” explains Yu. “There’s a wide variety of cosmetics, minor utility items such as potions and meals, currencies, and more from Golden Pursuits, and we're really excited to give players new opportunities to earn them.”
With this broad selection of reward types in mind, the team worked to ensure that the ideal balance is struck between the effort required to complete a Golden Pursuit and what it awards.
“Each Golden Pursuit is designed to be fully completable within the duration that it's active. To give a peek behind the curtain, Golden Pursuits are typically put together by a multidisciplinary group before launch. We have data gathered from player feedback, and we review the performance of similar systems in ESO to inform the design and expected level of investment. Our goal is to make sure playing with an active Golden Pursuit is both exciting and rewarding.”
Golden Opportunities
With Update 44’s Golden Pursuits, the team is adding even more ways for you to earn rewards as you play. Note that at launch, a Golden Pursuits campaign won’t be active, but keep an eye out for an official announcement for the first of its kind around the middle of November. Are you excited to complete your first Golden Pursuit? Let us know via X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, or Facebook.
The Update 44 base-game patch arrives October 28 for PC/Mac and November 13 for Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
