Now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds.
Just came back to game after a long layoff, just before Craglorn released. I am back to leveling and was wondering if there was any benefit to Vamps or Werewolf and If so, is there a specific class they are most beneficial for. My understanding is Vamps are magika, so Sorc, necro, etc...,and Werewolves are more for melee based classes.

WW gets a constant stamina regen bonus and only suffers from poison weakness while in WW form.

That seems odd. Are you sure? There seems no reason to not be a werewolf then.

Also, I forgot to ask, add me to the EP guild. (@imperiusv)

Just want to reiterate that all classes can be built however. You can make a stamina based sorc, or a magicka based night blade.

So the servers are up and all the xp buffs are in? Sweetness. Is this gonna be a noticeable increase in leveling speed?

It feels a bit faster to me, but I'm playing on a new character so it might be different with a vet-level dude (I ran up a big bounty on my vr main so I haven't played him much :v: )

Downloading this game now.

I played the beta and was really not impressed.

However, after all the latest updates and people saying the game has improved, I've decided to try it. Considering I played through TOR, my bar is set pretty low.

Can you respec your skill points and if so where?

Yep. Capital city of your faction (always the capital city of your second zone, Mournhold for EP, Wayrest for DC, Elden Root for AD)

Cost is 100g per USED skill point (if you have any unused skillpoints, you won't be charged for those). Same thing with attributes.

Coming back post 1.6 to try it again.

If I want to min/max a PvP archer that can blow people up is Bosmer Nightblade pretty much the best combo? It was looking like that or the Khajiit for the crit?

It was actually more expensive before, because you were charged for ALL of your skill points/attributes, whether you had spent them or not. If you just wanted to reset your morphs, you were hosed because you had to reset ALL of it. Now they made it so that if you want to reset your morphs, you can do just that and not have to reset all your skills.

Magicka nightblade is specifically awesome right now. I grinded out destro and resto just to try it out and now there is no going back to stamina (at least for now).

Mainly due to this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrNNWzPVbjk

After watching that, checkout the point of view of actually fighting him. It's pretty scary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQJnbU9u3aU

Addons. This is the answer for all UI questions. Advanced UI will do both of these.

Are most goons in a particular faction or spread out evenly between DC and EP?

Man I had forgotten how much like skyrim this interface looks. If that gmg discount is still on I might grab it tonight because I am bad with money :retrogames:

I had a go in pvp this morning and it's a lot different now that they've buffed the siege engines. The meatbag ones especially are bastards and you've basically got to just scatter if you see the big red circle. Mega area denial. It seems to have the dual effect of levelling the playing field a bit for low level players who buy an armful of siege cannons, and it also brings people out to try to rush the people operating the sieges more. Haven't played it much yet but it seems good so far

Curious about this as well, started back up and not sure which of my pile of siege weapons is worthwhile. Also I see that forward camps were removed, so the few I have are apparently all I'll ever have.

Can I have an invite to crafting, DC, and Ep? @bbaxterd

I just got an official warning and name change because Miss New Booty Phd is too offensive for ESO's delicate roleplaying experience. :jerkbag:

Now I'm not sure if I violated the "sexually graphic" or "excretory" part of this clause.

Does 8k+ damage in a shot, then you burn for about the same amount.


With the fire pot treb I've been hit + fire dot for about 28k damage in 1.5 seconds. So unless you have a healer watching you, you're very dead.

Scyantific posted:

Does good damage, no real dot damage though. The "fire" based siege seems to be the best damage dealer since you get whacked for a large amount of health from the bolt itself followed by a very large DOT.

Outstanding afternoon. "I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse."

Just gonna recommend GGframes and combat cloud. They're great looking customizable addons for combat text(of all forms) and really really great unit frames

I think I'm going crazy. I can't get the FTC mods to show me the buffs I think I should be getting from ym Solar Flare or Reflective Light abilities. I see screenshots with buffs at the bottom of the frames and everything in the mod is switched on. When I try and move the frame I have a PLayer Buff bar and I see debuffs on targets.

Annoying and weird.

Edit: I've just read some info from the guy saying that the in game API restricts a lot of things to do with buff tracking. That is proper, proper stupid.

I use this one to track my buffs, not sure it does what you are looking for though.
