Bethesda has detailed update 2.12 of Elder Scrolls: Legends
Soul Trap Enhancements
After many requests from the players, more Soul Trapping options are now available! Instead of only Soul Trapping your extra regular cards, we have added three options to accommodate three different types of collectors. These three options represent the Soul Trap priority of the various types of cards:
- ALL: Clicking this button will save a maximum of 3 Non-Premium and 3 Premium copies of your cards, and Trap the rest. This is for the collector who likes to have everything.
- NON-PREMIUM: Clicking this button will save a maximum of 3 Premium cards or any Premium plus the minimum amount of Non-Premium to make a total of 3 cards, and Trap the rest. This is for the collector who prefers the Premium artwork.
- PREMIUM: Clicking this button will save a maximum of 3 Non-Premium cards or any Non-Premium plus the minimum amount of Premium to make a total of 3 cards, and Trap the rest. This is for the collector who prefers more Soul Gems.
Chat Improvements
- Pressing the Enter key will bring up the chat window.
- If the chat window is open and no text is present in the input field, pressing the Enter key will close the chat window.
- Pressing the Enter key will always default to the last person you sent a message to, regardless of how many other friends have messaged you.
- The last known chat window state (small or expanded), will now be remembered.
- The chat history, for friends who have signed off, will now persist until you close the client.
- Sending a message no longer renders a message pop-up for your own message.
