Now to decide whether to sell or use. It was extremely expensive in treasure maps, but with the other motif pages dropping in the meantime I'll still come out ahead.

I mean, once you get the Cat Whisker Ear Scraper you kinda wanna hold onto it.

I'm seeing conflicting reports, but was the Fargrave Guardian motif added with this update or are they waiting till the Jester festival? Friend and I opened lots of those WB coffers with no luck and couldn't find it on any guild vendors, despite it being searchable.

They changed the BG queue options again last Monday (on PC, console players may have to wait another week), so all the BG types are back and equally likely.

So once you're at a somewhat high level and have the fighters/mage/undaunted lines all maxed is there any reason to do the dailies for them? It doesn't seem worth the xp/gold for the effort. Am I missing something?

Fighters/mages give you a cheap motif, if you haven't completed it and don't want to shop guild traders for it, but otherwise not really.

The undaunted pledges give you keys which you can use to get undaunted shoulders from random boxes, so yes there are reasons to do pledges. The undaunted delve daily gives trash though, so that one you can forget if you've leveled the skill line.

Good point on the pledges. I was thinking of the delves. Didn't know about the motifs. Thanks!

Companions have their versions of fighter, mage, undaunted skill lines.

Doing those dailies levels those skill lines, just like it does for real players.

They are also the best way to level rapport. Mirri likes fighter dailies, Bastian likes mage. They get +125 rapport if they are active when you turn the quest in, for comparison most of the other rapport changes are like +/-1.

I believe it takes 20 guild dailies to max out the companion's guild skill line. You can run one a day for three weeks, or knock them out faster by using alts or getting friends to share the other daily quests with you. Luckily companion skills are account-wide, so you only have to do this once per companion.

For rapport, the dailies mentioned are good, and Mirri also gets +125 from one of the Ashlander dailies (the one from Numani-Rasi). Companions also get +500 for completing their personal quest which will become available once you've raised their rapport some. Rapport is unfortunately not account-wide.

Finally, leveling the companions themselves (not skill lines or rapport) only happens through combat XP. They don't get any quest or exploration XP, just a small percentage of any combat XP you earn while they're out. They do benefit from XP bonuses, so the best thing to do is wait for an event with double XP, put on training gear and pop an XP scroll, then just grind a ton of easy mobs.

It was definitely working for me when I maxed her rapport a couple of weeks ago. So much faster than maxing Bastian's rapport. It's the daily that sends you out to pick up relics, not the ashlander daily that has you hunt a monster. And not the delve or world boss dailies from Vivec city.

That's the one I was doing, didn't get the rapport notification and meter didn't seem to budge, either. The Mages Guild daily is a lot faster than Fighters Guild, but more importantly, dude doesn't object to picking up insects. I do wish they had a "Shut the gently caress up" setting for companions, even set to "Infrequent" I kept having to hear about Mirri's parents loving constantly.

I was going to put my hand up here, but I'm on PS4 and just learned they don't have crossplay for whatever evil corporate political reasons. It would be nice if these community type games allowed for that, like FFXIV does. I think the best solution is going to be throwing our consoles out and going to PC.

Hope you've got bank space or a good trading guild, because Jubilee will dump you full of style pages, and if you don't have ESO+ it'll also dump you full of mats.

There might be a free trial of the game which would be a good time to make a personal guild bank if you don't have one.

You mean dupe style pages? Those probably won't sell for much during the event, right? I have ESO+ so bring on the mats. I've become part of two pretty good trading guilds somehow, but I've barely dabbled in selling stuff. I want to do more of it, tho.

Those too, but no I meant the purple crafting motifs. The prices drop during the event but some still sell quite well, especially after a few months.
