Released on March 06 2017.
The Elder Scrolls Online v2.7.9 is an incremental patch that fixes several issues surrounding the Grouping Tool, furnishings, and general gameplay.

Furnishings
Fixed an issue that was occasionally causing furnishings to disappear after a crash. Fixed an issue that prevented the "Redguard Mat, Mirage" furnishing pattern from appearing at Clothing stations.
