Released on May 07 2018.

The Elder Scrolls Online v4.0.3 contains many fixes for Summerset quests and the Trial, adjustments to the sourcing of Jewelry traits, several fixes for abilities and item sets, the addition of the new Pyandonean Motif, and more. In this patch, we've copied over all PC/Mac European megaserver characters and removed the previously-available North American characters. High level templates are still available for use. The size of this patch is approximately 1.43GB.
