Is it crazy to make a two handed sword sorc specializing in crits? Could that even work in the end game? Or do you lose too much toughness in the switch from DK (my current char) to sorc to use two handers?

Critical Surge to keep yourself topped off with health from every crit, and your bread and butter combo is Critical Charge + Uppercut. Evil Hunter from the Fighter's Guild line if you want even more crits. To give you an idea, I solo'd every single World Boss, Dolmen, and Public Dungeon in Cadwell's Gold (the VR6-VR10 areas) with my 2h crit sorc. Hunding's Rage and Night's Silence/Night Mother's sets for maximum crits. Silence for Stamina/Stamina Regen Bonuses, Mother for more crits. Also, the AD dialogue is hilarious You can already guess what I chose

I see your point though with Skill Points. I'm not doing any crafting on my DK so all my points go into making things die or keeping me alive.

Can you throw up a link on esohead for what you're using?

Can you throw up a link on esohead for what you're using? Here you go. It's the basic setup I use. I finish it out with potions, stat food, and 2 armor sets (Hunding's and Night's Silence). Some of that stuff is interchangeable, like if I want survivability, I'll swap out Evil Hunter for either Bound Armaments (Bound Armor Stamina Morph) or Boundless Storm.

One nice thing with sword and shield caster is you only really need the weapon passives and don't need the abilities if you aren't actively tanking, now that I'm fifty in blacksmithing/clothier/woodworking might pare back the points spent in them. Hirelings aren't really impressing me like they used to. I get a gold upgrade item maybe a couple times a week but without those points I could work towards maxing out another weapon or more class skills.

Sorcerers can literally be anything. Templars too. At launch, I had a crit. surge/dual weild one that was basically a whirlwind of death with steel tornado and evil hunter. One of my favorite things about this game is the numbers of flavors you can play each class. I just rolled an Altmer Destro Nightblade alt and it already feels more like playing a witch/warlock than anything remotely assassin-y. I'll probably try to make it a vampire and throw in entropy for more craziness. RUM HAM fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Apr 21, 2015 |

Thanks for the advice earlier guys. I'll probably stick to the Elf Sorcerer and give my Dunmer DK one more chance as a light armor guy before I give up and make him the crafting weakling he was born to be.

How about we just invite everybody to all of the guilds and if someone doesn't want to take advantage of extra guild banks and stores then they can leave the ones they don't want to be a part of?

NuckmasterJ posted:If your trying to decide which class you want to play, check out ESO Head. You can do a character setup there and look at all the skills and morphs of each skill to get an idea of what you want, and how your going to get it. If you can do that with a Dunmer, I'd love to see what kind of one-man-armying I could do using a Nord with it's racials.

I'm not saying Nord isn't good, its just going to be a slightly different build with slightly different focus. Also don't care too much about race here, the effect we are talking about is small.

There's a cap so that you're not making like 30x what you could be doing and i think you stop getting more exp from harder mobs five levels up, but that's just my guess.

eSporks posted:You'd be tankier for sure, but part of why dinner is so good for DK us that you get a passive that buffs flame damage and DKs do a lot of flame damage. They also get flame resist which makes going vampire easier. Eh, I'll be smashing heads in either way won't I? Hopefully the heads of people who scream about racials all the time.

I'm really enjoying Nightblade even though it's a bit squishy when facing certain tough enemies or like groups of three. I have my 5th and Ultimate slots (Deathstroke and Shadowy Disguise) bound to my mousewheel. So I see a dude, roll my wheel back to turn invisible, run up, press 1 for Surprise attack, hit him with either a charge attack or ultimate, then Killers Blade and boom, anythings dead. Takes like two seconds.

I played in early beta and hated ESO; I came back for the welcome back weekend and loved it. Bought the game (including the pack where you can play any race in any faction [for $42 total because Russians]).

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:Speaking of, I read somewhere about cutting your character over to the ps4 version when it launches. Is that a closed offer or is it still available? From what I have read and hear from the streamers its still an option to create a clone of your current account to port over to either console. But you have to have an account made before June 30th of 2014 in order to be eligible to transfer. As an added bonus you have a heavy discount for the console version of the game as well. The transfer itself is $20. Edit: Via a special offer, anyone who purchases and activates the PC/Mac version of The Elder Scrolls Online by 6/30/14 (11:59pm UTC) will have the opportunity to transfer their character(s) to either console version when they are released. The offer will allow you to begin playing immediately on the PC/Mac, and then add the PS4 or Xbox One version and transfer the character(s) you have created and developed. And, you don’t have to pay full price for the game twice. For $20, eligible PC and Mac players will have the option to add a full, digital version of ESO on either the PS4 or the Xbox One with your character transfer(s), and another 30 days of included game time.

Darkmoon2k posted:Would working towards this build be fine for leveling (from scratch)? Or are there better sorcerer set ups that make leveling easier? Ideally you'd want to level as many skill lines as you can early on, since you'll be going through levels rather quickly, and at low levels, it is NOT worth spending the time to research enough traits to get something like Hunding's Rage + Night Mother, because you'll be burning through those sets quickly as you change material tiers. It's doable, but not as easy for someone in the starting levels as opposed to someone who's running through the Veteran content. And while I'm mentioning Veteran content, let me give a word of warning to those interested in doing pledges: DO NOT do PUGs for veteran pledges. If you have to do a veteran pledge, make sure you get in with a group of high rank Veteran players (V12+).

Went through the last couple pages and (re)sent invites to those who hadn't gotten one or may have bounced (it's sensitive to spaces at the end of the account name when copy/pasting). If anyone still waiting for invites, please let me know on here or ingame: @Creatine_Monohydrate.
