First mistake here, no one plays DC anymore.


It looked like there were a few active DC goons, and I would like to play with my friend -- who is on DC now, and goons - rather than getting stuck with some random guild or trying to go it alone. Unfortunately, my friend is in an "elite guild for beta players only" or something stupid. I have the Imperial Edition that I bought when he was hyping the game in beta. Then THINGS HAPPENED, he quit and we never played.

What's the odds that he'll soon quit again?

Not as likely I guess? He's been playing for a while now. I guess he didn't like a lot of things that happened during the beta/release time but likes it a lot more now and has been playing for a few months. I don't know that I've ever had to justify my request to join a goon guild this much before... :confuoot:

It's more likely because they were trying to attract the single player TES playerbase who just wanted Skyrim 2.

I never liked Skyrim, at all. I wanted to.

I find this game also has a weirdly high percentage of RP/ERP, I've found. It's really... I don't know. I just walk into areas to steal things, and find groups of people talking and acting out things, and leave -- finding myself wishing the devs would prioritize player-lockable rooms above all else.

I made an effort over the last two nights to use up the hoard of food (which I will be replenishing) and make a lot of v15, v10 and v5 drinks and food for the guild bank. I also took out a lot of the duplicate recipes, but there are still a lot in there, so if you've ever wanted to learn provisioning -- its easy -- now is the time.

I also deposited a bunch of crafting materials for people, please don't be greedy -- make things, use things, make things for the guild bank. We still have a bunch of assorted crap that tends to sit in there, but its better now.

Is there any sort of goon presence on the Xbone version? I got it there since my real life friends were complaining I always gamed on PC, then promptly abandoned me for The Division a week later. I'm lost and lonely and have crappy armor :(

Join us on PC. We're awesomer.

Side note. For anyone that uses HarvestMap, I JUST found out about this site: which will merge your LUA files. The post I got it from says "There should be a link to an outside website that merges all user files into one continually updated "master file" of sorts.

Here's the website. You'll need to submit your own files first (even if they're empty). You may need to log into game first to ensure they get created. Then the website will create a merged master file for you." But I don't know that it does actually auto update? Either way. More infos.

I was up, unable to sleep last night because I live on a cul de sac and they were setting off fireworks until I don't know 3am. I wrote some stuff, I hope some of it is useful?

New Players should know:

Get MINION addon manager http://minion.mmoui.com/

ESO+ (Subscription) will give you
a crafting bag!!!! The crafting bag will store all your harvested items (mats) so they don't take up your actual bag space.
access to all DLC for the duration of your subscription (if you unsub you lose it, UNLESS you have paid for the DLC via crowns)
10% bonus to XP, gold gain, research and inspiration
Crown allotment (based on your sub type 30day/1500 crowns 90day/4500 180day/9000)

Imperial Edition will give you a mount, and this is usable with all your characters. It will also let you play as an Imperial (any faction).
You can upgrade to this through the crown store too.

Once you get a mount, remember to "train" it at a stablemaster (horse head icon on your minimap). Speed, stamina, inventory. Each have a max of 60 "trains". You can buy upgrades to this with crowns as well instead of spending gold.

You can buy bank(max 240 slots total: 768,500g)) and inventory space(5 upgrades total) upgrades with gold or crowns. Bank upgrades are available at the banker, inventory upgrades are a little trickier, but are usually a merchant with a ton of empty backpacks around them near the bank in a factions "main" town.

Join the Fighters Guild and Mage Guild ASAP. Why? Why not. You get credit from killing undead (Fighters Guild) and reading Lorebooks (Mages Guild) around the world toward the skill line, in addition to the quest for the two. Might as well start early. Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood are DLC, and scale. You can start those anytime if you have the DLC/are ESO+.

Decon things, even if you aren't ready to craft. You gain skill from deconstructing things, as well as getting materials. In addition to this, get a research assistant addon that will help you know what items you want to keep to research. Start researching early. The time it takes to research something gets longer and longer. You may consider alts to hold items in their personal inventory if you decide to hoard research items.
Recommended addons include: CRAFTSTORE and its related hotfixes, RESEARCH ASSISTANT

Even if you don't use a skill, you can put it on your bar, and still gain (some) experience on it.

You can respec attributes and skills/morphs in major cities. Elden Root(Grahtwood), Wayrest(Stormhaven), Mournhold(Deshaan). You can also buy them via the crownstore. Once you gain champion points (after 50th) you can also pay to reset those.

There is no Auction House. There are Trade Guilds. Basically, any guild that wants a trader has to bid for it. You can be in up to five guilds, though. Guild Traders are in major cities as clusters and then scattered randomly near wayshrines (teleportation/fast travel) around the world)

When you hit 15th you get a secondary weapon bar you can then use to train another weapon, or the same weapon with different skills. (`)

When you hit 10th you can join PVP in Cyrodiil and die to the Zerg! You are scaled to 50! (L) -NOTE- As of this writing most goons have their HOME on Haderus and GUEST on Azura. Don't choose anything if you don't know what this means.



Recommended addons in general:

Skyshards
Lorebooks
Craftstore (and related hotfixes)
Research Assistant
Master Merchant
AWesome GuildStore
pChat
No, thank you!



Some addons I use that others may not:
Tamriel Trade Center -- this is a newer one, it works with Master Merchant, and has its own website. You can register on it (don't have to) but it runs a program and uploads data from Guild Traders to the website, which HAS A SEARCH FEATURE. Kind of handy.
Wykkyd Gaming Suite -- I don't use all the features, but I do use the toolbar, which displays research timers, horse timers, and various other info for me.
Undiscovered -- Undiscovered Locations on your map
Troublemaker -- /tm to turn on attacking innocents. Because I kept accidentally killing them when I left it on.
Treasuremaps -- Shows the locations of a treasure map if you have one.
Smarter Auto-Loot
AUI
Destinations
