ESO PC/Mac Patch Notes v8.0.6 – Oakensoul change!

This morning ZOS released the ESO PC/Mac Patch Notes v8.0.6 which includes a much welcome change to the drop availability of one of the Oakensoul leads! Hopefully this will help with the crowd of characters all trying to lock pick the same safeboxes in Murkmire. There are also a few smaller fixes to High Isle quests as well as the Dreadsail Reef trial.

The Elder Scrolls Online v8.0.6 fixes a number of issues within High Isle including quests, Dreadsail Reef trial, Tales of Tribute, and even made a few changes for the popular Petrified Oaken Loop Lead. We also fixed a few game crashes, un-fixed a fix we made in Update 34 involving emotes and props, made a change to ensure the audio you select at the title screen persists upon relogging, and more. The size of this patch is approximately 132MB.
