It's been years and I still have it as a mark of pride that i'll never answer her frantic pleas to donate some of my time to work for the fighter's guild. Still, she keeps calling for me, stalking me in multiple cities. It's like a donation service. You gave money once and now they pester you forever. I just wanted the free skill tree, not the obligation of having my time coveted by a group of Daedra haters.

One of the many quality of life things I would like to see in this game is an option for a "Guided Story Progression Mode" where you have to finish the various stories/DLCs/expansions in order. The quest givers that normally yell at you all the time would be hidden until you had reached that point in the story progression. At the very least it would be a nice option for bank alts, who I will never do any questing with, to not have quest givers constantly screaming at them.

I like this idea but I seriously think there isn't an order you can do things in that makes sense, Sai Sahan is Schrodinger's Dragonguard, seems to be both alive and missing at the same time no matter how I thread the needle

I also read in the main quest if you sacrifice her at the end, she's still around for the dlc stuff

Did you sacrifice him instead of the Prophet at the end of the main quest? Otherwise he pops in and out of the story as much as any of the other "major" characters.

No I had to go rescue him from coldharbour earlier in the story, even though he was at the same time just chilling out in some valley I could take random horses to at any time, we fought a dragon together, he seemed fine, then I went and rescued him from blue-hell where he had been the whole time I guess?

I always bounce off of ESO because of the combat, but I realized I always try to play melee. How is magic combat in this game? I wouldn't mind trying out a wizard.

Enjoying the combat a lot more on the Necro class, and the questing in general. I'm following a "beginner" Necro guide that seems pretty solid. Other than having fun, what should my "goals" be? I feel a little lost in the sense that, I see a quest and I grab it and run for it until I see another quest and rinse and repeat. I feel like I'm just running around the world with no direction doing random quests. Is that about right, or should I be working toward something?

If having a cohesive story is important to you, keep an eye out for the main story quests. They have a different quest icon on the map and in the log:  Do note that the main game and each expansion have their own storyline quests, which usually lead into each other if you do them in order. There’s a bunch of guides online if that’s what you want to do, just google “ESO content order” or something similar.

I feel like I'm just running around the world with no direction doing random quests. Is that about right, or should I be working toward something? All I can advise is take it easy and do whatever you want. I had this mindset of trying to get to the next zone asap for some reason but finally broke myself and now just enjoy completing each areas map as much as I can. The public dungeons can be done solo once you are cp160, maybe lower depending on class. So how the main quest works is as you follow along your alliances quest line, a new quest unlocks as you finish each zone's main story. The fighters guild and mages guild story's are the same way. So to advance the Soul Shriven in Coldharbour quests, you need to do your alliances stuff. It's worth it for the skill points you get from them anyways. Do the delves in each area too, they're super easy and quick and each has a skyshard. Always be getting those free skill points!

Another thing that makes ESO great is there's stuff hidden all over the place. I liked FF14 but it doesn't have ESO's secrets. There's lorebooks atop ruined towers, chests hidden by the riverside, crafting recipes in backpacks at campsites. It really rewards you for poking around and seeing what's up.

The main thing from ESO I'd like brought over to FF14 is tokenized logins through my Steam account.

I'm still playing this a couple of weeks later, which means it actually has staying power beyond my MMO indecisiveness. I do have a few questions if anyone could help answer. 1) In build guides it shows best in slot or recommended items- if I do the content or receive the weapon/armor before level 50, how do I get it later at level 50? (Does this question even make sense?) 2) For leveling skills and skill lines, is it just based on having them slotted or does it level based on how much you use the skill?

LuckyCat posted:I'm still playing this a couple of weeks later, which means it actually has staying power beyond my MMO indecisiveness. I do have a few questions if anyone could help answer. 1) Couple options here. Good news is no quest rewards are unique. Any set items you receive from quest rewards will also drop randomly from that area’s overland content. Generally: Delve bosses drop a waist, foot, or unique item piece. Overland bosses drop a head, chest, leg, weapon, or unique item piece. Public dungeon bosses drop a shoulder, hand, weapon, or unique item piece. Chests at Dark Anchors drop a jewelry set piece. Treasure chests have a chance to grant any set piece that can drop in that zone; the chance is increased by having the Treasure Hunter champion perk. For dungeon gear, you can just keep running the sane dungeon and it’ll keep dropping. Additionally, any time you bind a set or Mythic item to your account, whether by using it, selling to a vendor, destroying or deconstructing, it gets added to your Collections tab. Once it’s there, you can reconstruct it at a Transmute Station at any time for a variable cost of transmute crystals, which mainly drop from Undaunted pledges, veteran dungeons and arenas, or pvp. Endgame stuff. 2) All that matters is that it’s slotted, XP gain is not based on how much you use it.

Can you respec a character or have multiple specs? I'm a level 37 warden and I have been leveling DPS skills and 2hs + bow. If I want to try out healing and maybe level up restoration staff, do I just need to make an alt?

You can keep leveling different weapon and armour lines no problem and can get an your points back by coughing up gold to a statue of mara or something

I think if you were to get every single available skill point in the game you can have just shy of 500 skill points on a single character between sky shards, quest rewards, etc that being said, you can fully respec your skill points and/or skill morphs either fully or individually for a cheap gold price at the shrines of the divines which are present in all 3 alliance capitals as well as Vivec City You can also grab the free Armory station from the crown store and save a blank loadout in one slot, which acts like a free respec whenever you swap to it!

Anything not chosen at character creation (class/race/alliance/appearance/character name) can be changed in game, either for free or for a small amount of gold. race/alliance/appearance/character name can be changed with relatively expensive crown items. Class can't be changed at all.

So I was interested in possibly playing around in this again (last played it like 7-8 years ago) and even though I saw there is an expansion coming out soon I also noticed the High Isle Collection on sale for like $14 and the 'collector's edition' at $20. Is the stuff you get with the CE worth the extra $6? I read something about how you get stuff from the old CEs too but not everything so it's a little confusing. Is it even worth considering or better to just wait for the expansion?

UESP has the details on what is in each pack but you don't get the preorder bonuses unless you buy the much more expensive crown star version. There is probably something in there you would enjoy so I would recommend spending the extra $6 if you are interested in cosmetics. You also have the option of just subscribing to eso plus which gives you access to everything but high isle, and high isle will get added to ESO plus when necrom comes out. This includes all the zone/dungeon dlcs that aren't included in the collection and the craft bag which is a requirement for reasonable inventory management. There is a massive amount of content to get through so I wouldn't worry about getting necrom right away.

drat Dirty Ape posted:Is it even worth considering or better to just wait for the expansion? Buying the all chapters version of the new expansion: 59.99 or 79.99(CE) vs Buying HI 14 or 20(CE) +Upgrade Necrom version 39.99 or 49.99(CE) Total: 54 or 60(CE) So even if you wanted to buy the new expansion you'd be better off buying the HI collection and buying the Necrom upgrade instead. Buy high isle, see how it goes, buy necrom later if you want, its price can only go lower. As for CE or not? Ehh, it's certainly a lot of varied cosmetics. If paying cash for cosmetics is your thing then yeah probably enough there to be worth $6. Nothing gameplay wise tho, so if you're not a pay for cosmetics person, then not worth it.

I hit level 50 and I'm not 100% sure what's next yet, but I started doing the Undaunted dailies. I eventually settled on a resto staff magwarden and group healing is a ton of fun. I've also noticed that it's easy to make 20-100k per dungeon because people are always paying $$ for tradeable loot.

I ended up picking up the CE and for $20 I'm happy with it. Started a DE DK and a Khajit Warden. Is there any goon presence left in the game? I don't really remember the details of guild stuff in this game but I know it had something to do with trading/auction house activity. e: goon not good Damn Dirty Ape fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Mar 27, 2023 |

You should get a confirmation prompt with the price and your current balance if you click purchase on anything in the store. Perhaps it doesn't give you access until the expansion is actually out? And maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see Scribes of Fate listed among the Necrom pre-order bonuses? e:f,b.

So there is a jester event going on which has a ‘hide shoulder pad’ option as a prize for your whole account that is very easy to get. May be worth picking up even if you are on a break.
