is there a more efficient way to get an invite, don't see anything in the op other than the discord

There is a more efficient way than asking someone in real time for a guild invite?

For the record:

* I've been using heavy armor for the damage resistance and stuff, I don't care about my character "looking" tanky (I just rotate weird costumes anyway) but I like being able to take a hit. I am, however, willing to try medium.

* I have most passives maxed out in the skills I use.

* I was joking about owing me money, I'm not actually that mad about it...

My point was more that I'm not really buying into the min/maxing philosophy here. I feel like for casual play, this game absolutely rewards doing whatever the gently caress you feel like doing. With all stamina I could hit a little bit harder, but the difference wasn't that notable. I'm OK with fights taking a little longer when I'm not living in fear of being one-shotted if I forget to dodge-roll one time. If I were trying to do end-game DPS I would definitely approach it differently, but my character is sort of a one-man group with a mix of tanking, healing, and DPS skills, and that's working out great for chugging through solo quests. When I do mix it up with a group, doing dolmen fights, for instance, if poo poo goes completely sideways I tend to be the last one standing, because my character is very hard to kill.

The min/max poo poo is for sperglords who scream if you miss a light attack in your rotation. Just play how you want. I'm about to make a bow wielding Breton stamina warden because all redguards have linebackers shoulders.

Can't just kill anything and have it count. Not allowed to kill bunnies and poo poo. It it cons red then it should count for the free crate.

I had a good feeling the next expansion/chapter would be Summerset Isle. It is about the same size, in game at least, to Vvardenfell and being an island is easy to separate from the rest of the world (no out of place "mountain" ranges separating zones).

I was worried ZMO might go for more nostalgia and fill in the rest of the Skyrim area but that would be like twice the size of Vvardenfell.

It was datamined awhile ago it would be Summerset.

Okay, cool; I'm always leery of relying too much on posts in the first couple pages of a lengthy game thread because I'm never sure how much of the info there should be appended with "oh this stopped being relevant six patches ago."

There are changes with every patch but as long you don’t expect to be a 1% min maxer you should be fine.

The crates from the Twitch drops are different from the normal ones. They are basically just potions and poisons with a mount that has worse odds than getting hit by lightning every day for a month straight.

So if I wanted to start back up playing and only bought the base game a while back, what's the best way to buy back in and be able to access greymoor stuff? Should I buy elswyr now and wait or would a greymoor pre order handle that too?

Greymoor preorder does not come with Elswyr. At least I have not seen it mentioned anywhere on their site.

Do you care about Elswyr? If not, then don’t worry about it. You have more than enough content without it and if you sub you’d have more content than you’d know what to do with before Greymoor comes out.

I've been eyeballing this for years but never taken the plunge. Is it worth playing for story? I see there's some year long arcs that have gone on and not sure if it's the Guild Wars season 1 style of "miss it once it's gone" or if all the story stuff is persistent once added.

It’s all persistent. You won’t miss anything. If you like Elder Scrolls then you’ll like the story. There are a ton of side quests that really flesh out the world too. There is a free play thing going on until the 13th so no reason not to try it to see if you’ll like the game.

It’s an Xbox game pass game, and one they push hard because it’s the only mmo and they know they have a trapped audience. What they want is for console players to play through the new Skyrim game and buy the expansions whenever they come out. The fact that it is also on PC is always going to be secondary.

Also the cast times work ok on a console controller.

There are multiple free and game pass MMOs on Xbox.
