Hello, friends. I'm new and am playing a Nord Dragon Knight.

What is there to do in this game? What classes are fun? Is the assassin DLC actually fun?

Potentially dumb question - What is light attack weaving? I figure that it's just doing attacks between your abilities however is there something special about it? Do I have to do some sort of animation cancel to optimize my DPS?

Been playing on and off since the first beta test, but I only ever got to level 26 on my Dragonknight, but I want to get into this game properly now.
I've alreadyy bought Dark Brotherhood with my Crowns from when I was subbed, but should I get the Thieves' Guild, Orsinium and Imperial City now, or wait?

>>145711209
weaving is used for light armor, perhaps that's what they meant

>>145710559
>Nord Dragon Knight

I'm so sorry

>>145710559
Is that just regular Nordic armor, or is it a particular cosmetic set?

>>145711209
it's using the global cooldown between abilities to light attack at no cost. it's essentially free dps. you do have to cancel the light attack animation with an ability however.

>>145711241
Dark brotherhood is kind of meh, same with the thieves guild dlc. Imperial city is a good addon especially if you play with friends and orsinium is great not just for well designed content but also has almost all of the endgame crafting you'll want. No need to rush getting to any of them, personally I did my faction storyline and areas until about 44 and skipped coldharbor for orsinium.

>>145711407

Thanks fambily. I figured that's what it was and i've been doing it recently but I wasn't sure if I was doing it correctly.

>>145710559

Just do quests until you're pretty much out of quests, and then either get ESO+ for the DLC or grind achievements, do PVP, etc.

The Dark Brotherhood DLC is bretty good but it doesn't add much other than the story line and some repeatable quests, Imperial City and Wrothgar are definitely the most bang for your buck.

>>145711838
Can you join the thieves guild/dark brotherhood and access their skill lines at all without the dlc? Or are those two guilds completely locked behind buying the dlc

>>145713278

They're completely locked behind the DLC. You can still steal and kill people with the help of the Ledgermain skill line but those guilds are DLC only.

Does anyone have that motif display link?

PS4 is fucking crawling with people right now so definitely not dead on the ps4 megaserver

lagging the fucking game up in anvil right now

Lv21 newfag here. Is it better to quest or just grind mobs for XP?

I have some gear that gives +7% kill XP and I'm getting about 110xp per mob (which I can instagib with my rotation). Quests usually give anywhere up to 1.5k but I could kill 15 mobs in a fraction of the time it would take to do one.

TLDR I want to level fast, what is the best way to do it

>>145717195
People who say the game is dead haven't played after the release.

>tfw level 18 templar
>put all my points into magicka
>die repeatedly in every dungeon, despite not standing in the red circles and keeping my distance whilst spamming ranged spells

this is suffering. I guess I have to stop stacking magicka and actually use some health gear/put points into health.

>>145717428
Quest so you don't miss out on skill points

>>145717428
Do the quests. Some of the quests give you skillpoints and will level up you way faster then grinding mobs.

>>145717579
I've seen some healers with some heavy armor with all health enchantments if that helps

but I guess it might help

>>145717428
Grinding mobs with a full set of training gear upgraded to purple (gold will be a waste of mats) with xp potions is the fastest way to level.

But, as I always tell new players, enjoy the game and quest. If you do most of the shit in the zone you'll level fine.

>nord dragonknight
>End up feeling more dragony than the dovahkin

Seriously, in hindsight, being the dragonborn was kind of a let down.

>>145719463
> End up feeling more dragony than the dovahkin

I read a theory somewhere that magick and technology is in decline in Tamriel, so the newer games have shittier and shittier understanding of how the world works.

It fits pretty well. Consider how thu'um is suppose to be something really common among nords. You don't see a lot of it in Skyrim. Yet there's a lore book where someone says that the Dragonknight's abilities are thu'ums (while someone else just claim it's an exotic kind of destruction magic. I want more lore on the classes). And suddenly you've a shit-ton of people running shouting, even among non-nords. As it should be.

why would they do this

>>145721116
Isn't there a magicka morph for caltrops?

>>145721432
Nope.

>>145721432
Unless there was something changed in the patch, both razor and anti-calvary caltrops are stamina and now cost 8100 stamina instead of like 7180 stamina. I'm sitting in azuras star with no scrolls captured and 7958 stamina. I used both of those abilities regularly for campaign, the only way to do it now is either invest points into stamina, eat purple food or get a scroll bonus I think.

>>145718584
Nice. The more I play the patch the more I'm thinking peoples worries about it being the end for sorcs was exaggerated.

No. And I'm not sure if I'd like a magicka morph on it. It's a very critical skill for a lot of stamina builds. Giving it a magicka morph would take away something that's very, very typical stamina.

I do a 3-2-1 spread for my templar. Magicka for the spear spam, lot of bang for your buck with health, stamina eh, you have to share stamina abilities with block, dodge and sprint, so fuck that. Resto staff to restore magicka, though I don't usually need it unless it's a protracted fight.

They recently redid the heavy armor perks. Pretty spiffy now, at least for PVE. You using Empowering Sweep? You should. Take some tanky stuff. Oh, and get Repentance ASAP.

I miss blackwater blade so much, the pvp was my favorite part of the game but this is unbearable now.

I've completed the Vicious Death set, but the items are 7-12 levels lower than me. With the way PvP scaling works, I should ditch it, right? I can only craft 3 trait armour but I think it'd still be better

It's what I'll have to do obviously, but I just was hoping for a stopgap between that so I don't burn myself out on pve. No amount of gittin gud is going to take down a dude who can single handedly solo a group of 8 players and have a coldfire bolt barely move his HP though.

Where are the NA servers actually located. With this shitty ping I have to assume they're least coast not best coast.

>>145728164
Well this is on PS4 and the only non CP campaign is the 30 day azuras star I think there's a 7 day one on PC?

Basically though 80% of the campaign population seem to be under 200 CP but there's a group of maybe 9-10 dudes who are 501 CP, well geared and well skilled that have coordinated to completely take over the campaign. It's really really hard to find enough random people on the losing side to even start a siege and if any of those dudes are online and see what you are doing it's just over.

Not exactly fun when you literally can't do anything in a campaign because every keep is taken and you can't even find enough people willing to take resources.

Do you eat food?

Is anyone else getting memory leaks since the patch on consoles? I

have to shut down the game every 3 hours or so because everything I get screen freezes when opening my inventory and moving to a new area

So I recently bought the game and I'm having fun playing a dragonknight with a bow. I've slowed down questing by picking up every single crafting thing I can see while out and about. Is it worth my time doing this or should I just power level to the end?

>>145732957
The best way is probably to pick up everything you see. Alchemy ingredients you pick up at low levels will be relevant on all levels, same with most of the stuff you get from runes.

Picking up ore, wood and stuff like that and later refine it help you level up crafting faster, and you'll want to max crafting as soon as possible.

>>145732957
Alchemy ingredients are the most important to pick up cause they are hard to get otherwise, then maybe runestones for the chance at kutas. Other then that, I trained my blacksmithinf woodworking and clothing with deconstruction only, and mats quickly become obsolete as you level so I wouldn't really bother picking those up unless you want a tiny chance at gold tempers when you define them.

Is that crafting bag shared between characters?

If it is I may well sub to Plus just for the ability to not have 500000 reagents in my inventory.

>>145734176
I'm not completely sure, but i think it is account wide. Try looking it up.

I'd sub for that if I had the money at the moment. It would make doing provisioning and alchemy writs for alts much more convenient. It's too much of a hassle transferring the necessary mats from a bank alt every day.

Only sell the intricate items, decon the rest. If you're on PC, use this http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info111-ResearchAssistant.html

Get passives as you please.
You won't find a build without 2h and bow 'cause it is superior as stam NB in pvp. Not sure about PvE tho.

Alright guys, I've decided to give this game another try

My previous character was an Orc dragon knight. I didn't really get into this and put time in, I kinda just messed around and I guess I got shit skills and stuff

I'm gonna need some beginner tips.

Do most of you get your armour from crafting and dungeons?

How does the duty finder work? I thought it would be like FFXIV where it finds you others who queue and just throwa you in the dungeon/raid

Iirc I was some level 20? But I think my gear may have been seriously shit and I was underpowered as hell.

Which classes are fun to use and have good moves? Is there a way to hybrid and be like, use a 2H weapon but have some spells? Or a mage who can also use a short sword? How would you build them?

Recommend me a class lads, and a faction too

>>145746828

The best armor is usually crafted, with the exceptions being negligibly better to all but dedicated min/maxers.

Yes, the Dungeon finder works that way.

The finder tries to scale you up to CP160 equivalent stats, but without set pieces and the correct enchants this just gives you resource buffs.

For me, the most fun class types to play are
>Magicka DK
>Magicka NB
>Stam Sorc

If you mean hybrid as in mixing stamina abilities with magicka spells, it's possible but non-viable. Magplars, NBs and Sorcs use Dual Wield on their Front (Magplar) or Backbars (NB, Sorc).

Try a Magplar, simple rotation, easy to sustain, good damage, healing and AoE from a single ability. EP all the way.

>>145746828
>Do most of you get your armour from crafting and dungeons?
I have half my stuff from dungeons, half my stuff crafted.

>I thought it would be like FFXIV where it finds you others who queue and just throwa you in the dungeon/raid
That's how it works for dungeons. There's no raids available for pug groups.

>Recommend me a class lads, and a faction too
Nightblades are pretty fun in solo content and will make stealing and murdering people way easier than for other classes due to their ability to cloak. Pick faction based on what race you're interested in.

>>145747154
>>145747270
Thanks for the info, I'm on ps4 and whenever I was queued for a dungeon it would never pop.

Also how do you build a magplar, what weapons do they use? Haven't played this game in months, ive forgotten quite a bit

>>145746828
Welp I'll do some recommendations for you

>Alliance
Whiever you want t b h

>Class
The one that appeals to your special autism, it is sorcerer for me

>Dungeon Finder

Buggy as fuck, never found a dungeon group with a dungeon finder. You are better off joining a clan, you might not find one that is good right of the bat but join clans see them for yourself.

>Underpowered in level 20
That's not possible unless you really fuck up your build t-b-h

Okay so I am a two-hand sorcerer. I started off with a destrucion staff sorc it performed very well but I got bored and switched to a dual-wield crit build which is still fun but I wanted to try out two hands as well so I am a two hands.

I use Wrecking Blow, Brawler as my damage abilities also Brawler gives you a damage shield which is useful and animation matches your moves when you Uppercut ----> normal light attack ---> Brawler ----> Uppercut and so on. I use Surge from Storm calling skill line for damage bonus and and crit on heal. Camouflaged hunter from fighter guilds skill line for crit rating bonus.

I use full medium armor for crit and weapon damage bonuses and I am a Breton so I don't get any useful bonuses from my racial line other than spell resistance.

This is not an optimal build, I am still working on it. The reason why I explained my build is to show you that literally anything works as long as you distribute your attributes right.

Also in my opinion all of the classes have neat skills. Just open some ESO wikia and read up on class and weapon skills or go with what you think looks or feels cool and tell us what you need to do with it. That'll probably be better for you.

>>145747703
Optimal Magplar DPS setup is as follows:

DW frontbar
Destro backbar

Sweeps and Radiant O on frontbar

Then literally anything else of your choosing.

I agree with you, I have 501 CP and I still play non-CP campaings.
I don't really know, should they first balance CP's and PvP, or should they add justice sytem part 2 and PvP arenas/bfs first and balance the PvP after those systems.

>>145754530

Make sure you've a damage over time attacks up at all time, several if you want to be really efficient

>>145758334
I don't know but CP system need reworking from the ground up and dong anything to that system also mean taking PvE into the rethink. Anyone of them systems are just small scale pvp and we already have that, so they don't really need to be added before thinking about them. It's a hard balancing act.

>>145711838

As much as I didn't mind Thieves and DB, I really hope they're done with those sorts of DLCs. They're way too short, don't have much to offer for any real endgame and they're all far too focused on a particular narrative (being a thief or being an assassin). I some proper sandbox style adventure areas and (I can dream) maybe even some crossover with PvP in places.

>>145737006

I'd legit be okay with Tharn having a small part in one of the next DLCs. Even if it's to hand out a fairly mundane quest. The others were boring as fuck but Tharn was great.

Nice.

>>145755730

Fuck off carebear cuck. If you're that bothered about 'muh PvP griefing' then they could just make it an opt in system for people who actually want to have some form of consequence to what they're doing in an MMO. Slap a couple of titles, some cosmetic crap (guard/bandit outfits and shit) and maybe a leader/bounty board and people will still play (though you'll probably get some PvE shitters complaining because they have to PvP for the outfit). The reason why the guard/bandit system has so much potential is that it'll allow for PvP in the open world, which will get even better come One Tamriel.

So what exactly is the point of Magicka detonation?
Its casting time is so long and it deals 2 times less damage than my curse.
I mean I can see how the damage increases with the number of people but rarely do I see such dense groups + they wouldn't usually stay in place seeing me doing conspicious things on them for 1.8 sec unless they are retarded

People take it for the Proxy Det morph which becomes instant and centers the explosion on you. It became a Magicka NB (amongst other NB classes) staple to run it because it could wipe out zergs when combined with pic related. It's been changed though now so it's a lot less effective against one person and slightly less effective against groups from what I recall.

what kind of group content is in this game? is it worth playing solo at all?

>>145759852
I've heard at some point there add a AOE population damage cap, e.g. you can only hit a max of 5 people with aoe and then cuts off any extra people that stand in it.

>>145759852
Hmm thanks, fortunately I also have Vicious Death set from PvP (underleveled 7-12 levels...). I'll try it out soon.

Can any of you guys help me? Not sure if I want templar, nightblade or dragonknight

>>145760064
There's an aoe cap but it's for each individual attack. So say you set of proxy death and kill someone, say 5 out of 10 people will get hit. But 3 people die from the vicious death explosion, you've suddenly 3 explosions can hit 5 out of the now 7 surviving people. So vicious death is as efficient as it is due to it creating a chain reaction to bypass the aoe cap.

Ore is around rocks, not out in the open. Though sometimes near small rocks in the open.

>>145744864
I used a very simple stealth archer build while leveling my NB.
Start with a heavy attack from stealth, followed by a poison arrow then as many light and heavy attacks you can get until the targets close to melee. Then pop shadow cloak, run past them and set up behind them for another heavy attack. Continue until they are all dead. Simple and effective against any non-boss mob singly or in small groups.
It was a good build for that particular character because he was heavy into crafting and I had few skill points to spare. I don't know how effective it would be at high levels because I changed the build later on.

Although very few people bother to do so people do sell normal racial materials in guild stores. You can find a stack of 200 for 200-300g.

Did the prices of many things fluctuate heavily after the dark brotherhood patch? I'm on console and can't really track this shit, but all of my herbs sold out and none of my other stuff has moved.

how much is considered "good dps"?

I'm pretty new, only on my first toon, and I'm not quite sure what kind of damage I should be doing

>>145778714
dps is meaningless until you start doing trials

Why the fuck does this game STILL not have an auction house?

>>145717579
>templar
puncturing sweeps my friend. Get used to spamming this skill all the way to veteran. ITs the only tool templar have in their arsenal

>>145778714
>toon

>>145780291

Because auction houses are shit. Inevitably everyone tries to undercut each other and you also inevitably have people doing shit like buying everything and re-listing it. AHs weren't in older MMOs like UO and EVE and it worked fine. It allowed you to do stuff like bid for prime market locations and then have people in turn pay you for the privilege of listing your goods there. It also means that you have to get out into the world to try and find a bargain away from the common spots. Those who then own stores away from common/high traffic locations have to market their store.

I'm hoping it'll continue once housing is released and there'll be an opportunity for stuff like setting up a shop at your home.

>>145780291
>No auction house
>Chinks can't just roll level 1 alts and send money straight to the alt to buy up everything on the AH
>You actually have to travel the countryside and find guild stores for the best prices
>Can make some serious bank if you're in five trading guilds

I gotta say the trade system the game uses is garbage simply because the different trade locations don't cater to specific markets, it's just a prime location that gets a lot of traffic or a shit location where only the hardcore resellers go out of their way to buy. So all it really does is keeps the market controlled by the top guilds who own the few prime locations while newer players have to sell their items for well under market value and pay above market value.

Not to mention the hassle involved in just putting something on the market starting out, first you have to find a guild then make sure the guild has 50 members, make sure it has a trader and make sure you get permissions to use the trader. When I first started out I hadn't sold a single thing on the market until I was in my 40s because I couldn't.

>>145709573
does this game havea trifecta of tank, dps and a healer?
can I be a support/healer primarly?

>>145783375
There is nothing worth selling before v160 anyway, putting junk in, in any trading guild worth their salt will just kick you.

>>145783902
herbs and raw materials would disagree with you

and the people who actually need the gold badly from trading are the new players who need a horse and bag/bank upgrades

>>145784117
Sell in zone chat, people who actually need gold baldy are endgame players trying to get full sets of viper and legendary enchants. You get enough money for a horse by the end of first real level zone, just doing all the quest and selling to vendor what ever you don't use, also I don't really see the efficiency in gathering raw mats and herbs at low level.

>>145781168

>>145785537
Loot is good not only for money, you can and should be using it to level crafting. Crafting writs are a good way to turn collected mats into even more money.
I never had any trouble with money with low level characters. A horse is not a necessity until you start pvp.

Never looked in a guild store outside of capital city, THE post

I'm embarrassed to share a game with some of you people

>>145783883
Yes, I am a healer/support pretty much exclusively. You will still be dealing some damage just because there are attacks that have side effects that are very useful for healing/support, and Spell Power contributes to both spell damage and healing. I view the damage more as the side effect with how I play, but you will hear people say that healers in this game are expected to deal damage, that's what they are talking about.

>>145787379
>A horse is not a necessity until you start pvp

Sure, but it's an enormous quality of life increase in whatever you do in PvE once you have Rapid Maneuver and a horse.

>>145793789

>>145793789
>an enormous quality of life increase
I disagree, especially if you're collecting mats for money.

>>145794247
Whether money or effort you spend to acquire that quality of life that a horse gives you it's worth it. Moving slowly is very painful.

>>145794651
I don't understand what you mean.

>>145794932
I assume you didn't read the thread then.
If you're trying to make money by collecting mats, you're not going to spend much time on a horse, you'll be collecting mats everywhere you go. and mounting and dismounting takes more time than you save using the horse.

>>145795567
Ah, yea. But you're not collecting mats 100% of yoru playtime. There's still distances you want to travel by horse. Are you saying it's so little time that you wouldn't want a horse at all? Also if you're gathering a lot of mats you'll have plenty of money to buy a horse.

Going around to traders looking for a good deal on basic style materials for doing writs.
So many hilariously overpriced mats that can be bought for 15g from crafting vendors.
WTF?

Noob question.
Can I re-enchant stuff? Say I make/get a set of armour now and slam some purple enchants on it, can I later down the line get some legendary enchants and put them over the old enchants, instead of having to make the set all over again?

why is Dark Exchange sneered upon? it heals me for almost 50% of my health and gives a lot of magicka
with Dark Conversion morph it costs like 2000 stamina

>>145799327
Yes

>>145799790
I think you have to build around it to really get the efficiency, but in the end you are still standing around not doing any damage or putting up a shield while channeling it so it's kind of a waste to build around?

>>145785537

Loot isn't useless. Really you should be using most loot for this purpose with the exception of the intricate stuff or whatever the fuck the 200% vendor price trait is. From there you can either join a trade guild (there are a metric fuck ton around) and sell off the shit you get from deconstructing or keep it for yourself until later. This is actually one of the the few games were say a purple quality sword you find at level 15 can provide some assistance to you when you're max level.

Also no one gives a fuck about 'gearing' up when leveling, which is basically no different to any other modern MMO. Getting some set pieces is cool but that's all it is, a cool little bonus. You'll end up outstripping the gear quickly anyway so wtf would the point be? It's not like it's especially difficult to level with the shit you find from dungeons, questing or killing mobs anyway. The only real reason would be if you have a real hard on for BWB I guess.

Is this a good guide? I feel like doing a Magic Sorc DPS

>>145785537
What the fuck makes you think people are going to cater to low level sets? You're going to replace it in less than 30 minutes while playing anyways. This is how every fucking MMO works. I despise people like you, I bet you even go into zone chat and beg people to craft an entire set for you when you're just going to outlevel it anyways.

>>145802135

To be fair you can get a fair amount of wear out of a full set when leveling due to all the bonuses. That said it's far easier just to join a guild(s) and ask a guildie to knock out a low level green suit of something like Hunding's or some shit. I've done it a couple of times for guildies as I usually have a shit load of low level mats knocking around from all the deconstruction I do.

>>145785537
>can't find set pieces I need for cool newfag low level sets because guild stores only cater to high players
That's bs. There's plenty of low level sets on the guild traders.

I like Deltia, others may have their opinion and I haven't much clue in making my own builds yet but he seem to know his shit. The only problem I must point out is that pretty all his builds unless he states otherwise, are made with veteran dungeons and raid content in mind in other words especially with that build, you relaying on your weakness to be covered by organised group members. Anything that has PvP, Maelstrom Area or leveling build in the title pretty much mean you'll have much better sustainability and a bit more roundness to the build.

>>145803285
magic sorc is still better for group pve

is there room in your PC guild?

If you're say level 14 and trying to farm a collector's item off of level 5 enemies, do they just stop dropping items? Would I have to look for enemies closer to my level range to keep trying to farm it?

Yay I got morphs of some of my final Sorc skills and been getting accustomed with the vampire abilities and I'm having a blast. It's great to streak through an enemy, killing him with an implosion passive synergy
.>>145800732
Why would you need to build around it? It's a free powerful heal + magicka return, at the cost of a small amount of stamina. And it doesn't really take that long to cast, you just make a gesture and that's it.

>>145806773
Because you should rarely have a situation where your magika regen and potion rotation would leave you at low mana and you shouldn't need to ever heal yourself outside of solo play. In order to make dark exchange worth a slot you'd have to gear away from magika regen and use different potions maybe.
