Essential posted:I just started this last week, knew next to nothing about it and have been having a blast. I'm not working off any guides or anything and while I'm sure it's not an ideal way to level a character at least I'm not burning out. I like to check everything. You can find some great stuff in crates/urns/pots/barrels etc. YMMV on how much you think its worth it, but I like to collect and hoard mats. Did you need a guild invite? I can't recall if you've asked for one.

The stats don't seem impressive because your stats are scaling to CP 160, which is the highest lvl gear in the game. Don't worry about the gear you loot while leveling up, just equip it if its an upgrade. Research or deconstruct it otherwise or sell it if it has the trait that increases its worth to merchants. To manage your inventory, when your inventory is close to being full port to the nearest town with a full complement of crafting stations, I recommend Vivec in Vvardenfell. First, right click and lock any item you don't want to deconstruct or sell. At each crating station (blacksmithing, clothing, woodworking, jewelry crafting, enchanting) research any item trait that you don't currently have (doesn't apply to enchanting), deconstruct everything else. Lastly, sell any junk left over to a vendor and repair your gear. In regards to things to keep any eye out for that might be worth some money, at your lvl its mostly going to be crafting motifs and furniture diagrams. Sub max lvl crafting materials also sell for a decent amount since people lvl up quickly and aren't the appropriate level to farm it for long. Once you get to CP 160 you will be able to sell looted equipment for gold if its a good set people are looking for and has the right traits. For example, the Mother's Sorrow overland set from Deshaan is used by many magicka builds so if you get it with the right trait (Divines in this case) you can sell it for a good amount of gold. However you will have to join a trading guild for anyone to buy your stuff off of a guild trader, otherwise you're limited to selling stuff via zone chat. Essentially a trading guild is a group of players that that bids money for a specific NPC to sell their guilds goods to other players. Every overland zone has guild traders. Some trade guilds have weekly dues to pay for the weekly bids, try to find one that doesn't have weekly dues.

And yes, people do pay hundreds of dollars to some poo poo-tier content creator just to get "secret builds" that are outperformed by other builds that require less thought and effort.

I'll take a guild invite, @GentlemanStyle , thanks! Regarding looting, I've been having fun checking everything. I've just found with the baskets and crates I get overloaded with crafting stuff that I end up destroying to make room. I haven't crafted or deconstructed anything. Appreciate all the advice from everyone, it's very helpful.

E: ^^^ Ohhh, my man. Get ESO plus at least for one month to try. Crafting mats don’t take inventory if you are plus. That powerleveling guide helped in one respect. For some drat reason it never occurred to me to take all the random one off training enhanced gear I can make and put it all together one character. I have no idea why it never occurred to me it would be additive. seems like a better idea than using random poo poo I pick up while I level.

Leveling a Necromancer. The talent "Death Gleaning" seems either extremely lackluster or I'm missing something. Restoring 100 magicka when an enemy dies, when my magicka pool even at level 8 is already 17886? What?

I discovered two days ago - more or less by accident - that people farm those dolmen/portals in Al Akir pretty much 24/7. It's nuts. Whenever I log in, there's people rushing between those dolmens like coked up rats smashing that button. I just afk'd next to one while listening to podcasts, it's an ok way to level if you want to devote zero attention to the game.

Mustang posted:To manage your inventory, when your inventory is close to being full port to the nearest town with a full complement of crafting stations, I recommend Vivec in Vvardenfell. You get one free house (more of a walk-in closet) per character from a selection of what is currently six. One for each of the Alliances, and one for each of the chapters (if you have access to them). Since everybody gets the Morrowind chapter as part of the base game, you can get a home there and teleport freely, from any location (even in a delve), as often as you like. The quest for it in Vivic is on a poster next to the docks near the Stablemaster, or you can open the Quest Starters section of the Crown Store and choose "Room to Spare". Note that selecting that mission will get you the free house in any of the other cities if you happen to be there when you start it.

Vivec is the best city to have a house and the best and easiest access to crafting stations.

g0del posted:Based on a bunch of people in the feedback thread running parses on the test server, it looks like switching to heavy attack weaving generally lowers DPS because it slows down your skill use. Light attack weaving also gets lower DPS due to the drastic nerf to light damage. I figured this would be the outcome, glad to see it is confirmed.

I've got max bank/inventory and still need the crafting bag, but I have at least 2 of every maelstrom weapon and tons and tons of sets sitting in the bank plus stuff on mules, it's insane. I should probably cancel my sub, I haven't played in god knows how long, need to stop giving ZOS my money.

I can’t quite figure out what a runebox is. Is it like a crate? Is it an item? Googling just gives me people whining about them not actually explaining them.

So you like collect pieces of something and when you have all the pieces poof, a runebox. Which you can then open to get the item. So, for example if you collect 7 fragements of a kitten, you get a kitten pet if you open the runebox. This might help? https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Fragments

ahhh. I see. And the Runebox is trade-able whereas the fragments are not. Thanks.

# ? Mar 27, 2020 14:29 |

You can buy/sell fragments on the guild traders. A lot of items like that can't be vendored or put in the bank, but can be traded, mailed, bought or sold. Basically the game's way of encouraging you to trade it. Not every runebox is assembled that way, a lot of them are straight drops from events, or direct purchases from special vendors. Generally speaking, what they are = rare account-wide unlocks for cosmetic items.

I've never had a random disconnect personally, and the guy I know from Argentina gets a disconnect once every 1-5 hours ish if that helps but I think that's mostly a distance issue.

I just rejoined this game under the name BaronHamBurger. How important is crafting? gear selection seems pretty weak if you aren't willing to craft the pieces you want.

Looking to level a new character and I was thinking about a Dunmer dragonknight who's theme would be "Everything must be on fire!" Note that I do not care about DPS or doing stupid crap like vet dungeons or raiding. Or getting around to creating a vampire character. Was thinking a siphoning nightblade but can't decide on a race. And I have yet to make a werewolf character either...
