With the High Isle update, the developers of The Elder Scrolls Online brought the Oakensoul Ring to the game. PvE fans are happy about the useful buffs, while PvP players complain that the ring is too strong and you don’t have a chance without it.
What is this item? It’s a Mythic item that all players have been wanting since the High Isle update. The Eichensoulring (English: Oakensoul Ring) is ideal for solo PvE, as it provides you with valuable buffs.
To craft the ring, you must collect a total of 5 traces. Then the coveted ring will automatically appear in your inventory and you can put it on. However, it cannot be combined.
These are the effects of the Oak Soul Ring:
Since almost all players want to own the oak soul ring, farming has looked very chaotic since the update.

The item ruins PvP gameplay for some players
Wearing the Oaken Soul Ring in PvP does not automatically make you a god, but you are still stronger. With the ring you are very resistant, quick, have high crit values and cause enormous amounts of damage. Players without a ring are clearly at a disadvantage.
Some classes are now more difficult to play in PvP because enemies deal too much damage through the ring and they are constantly down. That’s how it is with the necromancer.
That’s why many players are dissatisfied and wish that the ring would be made weaker in the next update or disabled in PvP. This is what the reddit community says:
The community also discusses the fact that fights with the ring on are too easy. Some find the gameplay too boring because they hardly have to do anything anymore.
PvE fans love the ring
Players who focus on PvE take the Oaken Soul Ring much better. Here, too, some are bored, but most are enthusiastic.
Users with physical disabilities are particularly pleased that they no longer have to press as many keys. Gameplay is now easier for them.
Even players without physical disabilities are happy about the oak soul ring in PvE. With him it is easier for them to master difficult bosses. What PvE fans say:
