What is the Scribes of Fate DLC?
Scribes of Fate is an uncoming Dungeon DLC that leads players into the Shadow Over Morrowind storyline. Discover the forbidden secrets of Apocrypha and fight to preserve reality in Shadow Over Morrowind, a new Elder Scrolls Online adventure.
New Dungeons
- Scrivener's Hall: A change in leadership twisted the Scribes of Mora from mild-mannered scholars to an order of violent zealots. Assist the exiled former leader of the scribes in infiltrating Scrivener’s Hall, locating a powerful Daedric artifact, and removing the dangerous Valinna before her leadership is fully recognized.
- Bal Sunnar: The township of Bal Sunnar and its Telvanni masters have remained hidden in the mountains for centuries, but why does this mysterious location now emanate temporal magic? The Psijic Order needs your help to hunt down the source of this phenomenon through the past, present, and future!

New Furnishings
We’ve added new Bust and Trophy furnishings to commemorate victory in Bal Sunnar and Scrivener’s Hall. In addition, completing these dungeons on any difficulty unlocks purchase of two new achievement furnishings from Undaunted Quartermasters:
- Dark Elf Archway, Stone
- Originally designed for use in Mournhold to honor Almalexia, grand archways like this one stand in other locations as well. The one in Bal Sunnar purportedly served to remind the Telvanni Dark Elves of their reverence for Mother Morrowind.
- Craglorn Podium, Filled
- Though it currently holds a delicate scroll that the scholars of Scrivener's Hall studied, this wooden podium from Craglorn may serve you well for other forms of written knowledge.

Housing Quality-Of-Life Improvements
We’ve made a number of improvements to polish and improve the overall housing experience. These include the following:
- Added additional filters to the placement and retrieval tabs of the Housing Editor. You can now filter by:
- Whether the placed item is coming from your Bank, Inventory, House Storage, or Collectibles
- Whether the furnishing is bound or unbound
- Which Furnishing Limit Type the furnishing falls under
- While in combat with at least one training dummy, the Show Housing Panel keybind (default F5) now changes to Reset Training Dummies, which allows you to easily reset all training dummies you are in combat with.
- The home’s current occupants are now listed in the Settings section of the Housing Editor. You can also kick occupants out of your home from this menu if they’ve overstayed their welcome.
- The home’s occupants are notified when people enter or depart the home, via a message in the top right corner of the screen.
- There is now an Interface option that allows you to hide the House Tracker when in a home, which is the UI element that tells you the name of the home and homeowner as well as the current population of the home.
- While previewing a home, placing your target reticule over a furnishing will now outline the furnishing and display its name.
- The Purchase Options dialog for a home now allows you to preview the full list of furnishings in the currently selected template (Furnished or Unfurnished.)
Screen Narration
We’ve added a new option in the Accessibility Settings panel for Screen Narration. Once you have enabled this setting, you can choose to have a male or female voice, set the speed of the narration, and the volume of the narrating voice. Note that you must have Accessibility Mode turned on in order to use this feature.
- Most UI screens in ESO will be fully narrated and you should be able to move around between UI screens with screen narration support.
- The narration supports all official languages and is computer generated in the language of the client. For example, if you are playing on the Spanish client, you will hear screen narration in Spanish.
- While the UI navigation portions of most screens on the Accessibility menu are supported, there are some menu screens that will not be otherwise narrated at this time including Scrying, Excavating, Tales of Tribute, lockpicking, some elements of fishing and the Champion Point screen.
- Additional menu screens will be integrated into narration over time.
- The game’s startup and login flow are not currently narrated; you must log into the game first before narration will start.
- Gameplay such as combat, in-world navigation, and interactable objects are not narrated. Response options when interacting with NPCs are also not narrated. To ensure screen narration does not conflict with voice acting, character dialogue is not included in screen narration.
- While playing with a keyboard on PC, the game menu (defaults to Alt) is narrated but the System menu (defaults to Escape) is not intended to be narrated. These menus provide two alternative ways to engage with the same menu content.
Software Occlusion Culling (Beta)
Software Occlusion Culling is now available as an optional graphical optimization. Enabling this feature will prevent the game client from performing rendering calculations for objects that are completely hidden from view by other objects. Doing so can provide a performance boost at the cost of additional memory usage. You can test this feature by adding the following line to your UserSetting.txt file: SET SoftwareOcclusionCullingEnabled "1"
