Have you tried just going to the dlc zones? I don't know if you need to go to the store for anything.

ESO for me feels like the main character is an idiot the way he repeats everything.

NPC "I need you to find the argent key and unlock the tomb"

MC "You want me to find the argent key and unlock the tomb?"

NPC "Yes, it's an important location for our ceremony"

MC "Can you explain what's going on again?"

I like reading it as the main character being very sarcastic and/or annoyed with all the requests.

edit: One of the fun thing about being so overpowered is when you waltz into a town and someone needs you to rescue their sheep from a bandit but they're worried you'll be killed and it's like bitch I have been to planes of existence you've never even heard of and fought gods. I can get your dumb sheep back.

Picked this up a little over a week ago and... it's surprisingly similar to a single-player Elder Scrolls game. Sure there's a ton of microtransaction bullshit and it kind of weird to see glowing aliens rushing around out in the middle of nowhere, but for the most part it's quite fun.

Main issue would be the trading system. It's practically impossible to sell anything to players unless you're in a player-run trade guild, and there don't seem to be any that will take people who only want to sell things with 0 other responsibilities or interactions (they all have requirements of either sales quotas, dues, or specific activity requirements). You can't even create your own trade guild to sell stuff because it requires a minimum of 50 people.

I guess the devs just really want people to grind for stuff personally instead of being able to easily get it from other players. Or maybe it's a roundabout anti-bot method? Either way it's a real pain in the rear end.

There's some weirdo guilds out there but most are chill. I rarely talk with my main guild, just sell things in the guild store. There's weekly dues of 15k which seemed completely staggering when you start the game but is inconsequential later on.

But yeah, a week in you aren't going to have much to sell. I make most of my gold with motifs and that's something you can't really do in the first week of playing.

Went and traveled to Cyrodil the other day and... what the gently caress even is that hell? It's massive and the daily quests send you off into the heart of enemy territory, a 10 minute or so ride away, with no way to get back (besides suicide by wild beast/cliff). The +30% mount speed doesn't help at all.

How is anyone even supposed to complete the 'capture 3 keeps' or 'capture an elder scroll' one when one alliance controls 90% of the territory?

When you're stuck far away in Cyrodil just join the Imperial City campaign and then pop back into Cyrodil. Vice versa too.

ESO plus, the latest expansion which doesn't come with ESO plus (idk if Necrom is the first to do this or it's always been like this) and honestly just 2 armory slots and having to go back home every time you want to change your build both seemed stifling to me.

If you have ESO+ the expansions will show up a year after relesse so you just gotta wait. Also ESO+ comes with crowns that you can use to buy armory slots.

Was disappointing to find that the main Bleakrock quest is bugged, and having found 9 of the 10 missing NPCs I'm bummed that the only fix is to abandon the quest and start over to make the 10th person reappear. I shouldn't be surprised at bugs in a Bethesda game but still... it's annoying.

oh man that sucks. especially on that quest. I think I've only ran into one quest-breaking bug in the game, but it was busted for a month or so before they patched it.

Just found out the Gryphon Run boss in Summerset is broken in the most spectacular fashion.

Apparently, it used to be bugged so that it it never respawned when killed. Now, however, it has the annoying tendency to respawn DURING the fight... making it impossible to kill unless you have truely massive DPS.

Bug fixing at its finest.

That boss is a bitch at the best of times. That'd be incredibly frustrating.

That's soft taunt. Basically, cuz this game doesn't have aggro, they will have enemies attack somebody on the following list of priority:

1) whoever they are scripted to attack based on the mechanics of the fight at that time

2) the person who taunted

3) whoever did damage to them first in the prior 15 second window

4) basically at random, whoever had a heal tick or some damage tick in the group and they latch on to that as the instigating thing

so your tanks will basically run around in a place real quick, smack a bunch of people with AOE to get (3) started for group safety, then spend their cooldowns getting everybody who they need hard taunted locked down per (2)

importantly for anybody who plays DPS or healing, the only way for you to be a victim of a pull instadeath volley is if you start attacking and invite condition (4) upon yourself. wait for everything to be smacking on the tank, then go wild. not that different from any other MMO

This is really valuable. Thank you.

Ah poo poo the last lead I need for the pale order ring drops from wrothgar world bosses, gonna have to find a group for that cause I can't solo those.

King-Chief Edu is probably the easiest wb and a lot of people usually wander in during the busy hours just because it drops the Pale Order lead. Although I've always had very good success in just asking in chat for help. Even at 2am in a dlc zone usually someone will come help.]

Ran into someone in a daily battlegrounds match (a stealth build of some kind) that could reduce their opponent's Max HP to like 20% for 5+ seconds. Needless to say if you couldn't kill them before they hit you with whatever it was that did that, you were dead (and they used it against multiple players in quick succession).

Anyone know what it was? Basic google searching isn't turning up much beyond Glyphs of Decrease Health.

I've seen those health bars shrink in size in both PvP and PvE but I have no idea how it happens.

I don't think so. ESO+ always gets it as part of the sub, but I think actually getting it as a gift to own is different. But they gave away Orsinium earlier this month so maybe they're going hog wild for the anniversary.

If it were a PVP achievement sure, I could see your point. But yes I consider hanging out with people while pieing each other and killing each other in cyro to be silly poo poo in line with "Throw 10 Pies at Guards anywhere but Cyrodiil" or "Festoon 20 players with cherry blossoms during the Jester's Festival." The achievement has conditions and they were met without exploiting any game systems or paying anyone.

I view the achievement as "had a silly time in cyro with pies and kills." You seem to view it as "has the skill and pvp experience to time pieing and killing in a coordinated way". I feel like my interpretation is inline with the Jesters festival and the rest of its achievements.

You're correct.

1 master writ to go before I can buy glass! And about 6 days to go on my triune ring so I can get rid of some pesky master writs hanging about.

Does anyone have a tip about a purple thing I can steal to fence for Embers Favour? I've done everything else but all I can find right now is blue stuff and all the stupid guides tell me there's wonderful things in in places like Vvardenfell but I went to Vox and there was nothing there! And all the nobles in Leyawijn are too suspicious (I have 17 legerdemain, so pickpocketing is doable). Went to Wayrest, I couldn't find a safebox in half the places people claimed there were.

I have a great tip for Ember. Just steal some white or green level weapon or armor from some shop and then upgrade it to purple then fence. :science:

Also, congrats on almost getting glass!
