pls stop ruining it

>>144206723
Didn't think about that, thanks friend.

I noticed they have made some changes to some of the early quests.
In EP, the battles for Bal Foyen and Davon's Watch have changed in some details. It's an improvement in the experience especially in Davon's Watch where the battle between Balreth and the Daggers was more comical than climactic before.

>>144206723
I've found crafting writs to be an easy way to make money. I had never really pursued money in game and as such never had much, but I wanted to level crafting for some of my high level characters to get a couple ranks of keen eye and now I am swimming in coin.

On sale now, worth getting while it's half-price? I'd be playing it solo initially as nobody I know is mad enough to get it also. I'm a lore nerd, played other MMO's and I'm mostly just morbidly curious about trying it so I can see locations and maybe be a qt Dunmer, Altmer or Bosmer. Care more about PvE than PvP but if the PvP is good I'd dig it.

Only an optional one which gives access to all DLC, crowns for the ingame store and some other bonus stuff.

Right so I've been ill and home from work and basically just played Dark Brotherhood since release, and I think I finished the main story. I've yet to do that "Sweetroll killer" quest people have praised.

Sadly, almost all of the endgame content is behind a paywall.

Not really. I can't think of an instance where you're "completely cucked" from being able to do what everyone else is doing, save for the new areas, two dungeons and Imperial City. If you wanna fuck shit up in PvP you can do it without paying a cent and you've 600+ hours of PvE content.

>>144222646
Okay it's a lot cheaper there. Guess it can't hurt to drop the price of a takeaway on it.

>>144221843

Absolutely worth picking up for half the price. You can also get it on G2A for $10 and even if you just like lore it's worth $10 imo

>>144223638
see >>144222817, it's well worth that, specially if you're going to play it at your pace, and focusing on PvE.

If you mean post characters here's my Atlmer Templar.

Wish I could change his face though or I had the dwemer head motif cause the light armor helm looks sweet. Or even the worm cult helm would be allright. Also I should really use a mace cause templar and all that but I only have like one mace trait researched so sword it is. Still works when purging all orc scum.

Best faction?

>>144230719
I lean towards covenant myself, mostly because they end up dealing more with the daedric threat, at least in the beginning.

Ebonhart feels almost retardly focused on the war and barely avoids self-destructing, and Dominion can't stop intriguing itself harder than Dunmer noble houses for five seconds.

it's only the 2 dungeons from Imperial City, which you can get easily

Buy 2 months of premium from kinguin, and when it's done use the crowns to buy IC.

Speaking of which, I can't get queues for shit right now. While I was leveling it was never more than 10-50 minutes.

Is it because everyone is doing the new DLC, or do I need to get IC DLC to actually get a goddamn random vet queue to pop?

Any ideas of if they plan to do personal or guild housing in the future?

Any hopes or thoughts on what it should or could be like? Part of my would almost want to consider something like Fallout 4's settlement building maybe. You get a plot of land (or even water) and then build on it.

Naturally with non-ramshackle pieces.

>>144244159

They announced that it would be coming in a patch sometime this year I think, but I don't know what it will be like. Probably not much.

I couldn't help but notice Windhelm honestly seemed nicer than the one in Skyrim. I supposed in all fairness, when we visit it in Skyrim, all of Tamriel's been going to hell or has gone to hell multiple times over the past several centuries while this has only been maybe the first time going to hell.

>>144245296
yeah, I could probably see it maybe like Champions Online's housing system at best, but I'm sort of being hopeful.

Plus, I do notice some parallels in ESO that seemed to be implemented in FO4.

>>144244159
I'd guess it will be closer to you being able to either get a house "somewhere in skyrim/daggerfall/wherever you want" and get to take a boat to go there, so it isn't physically on the map.

Either that or we'll get a DLC involving daedric shenanigans and our house will be in a pocket realm in Oblivion.

>>144241740
It's the DLC. People are simply not doing dungeons at the moment. And a lot of people saved up their gold and silver keys before the patch so they've a lot of new gear to play around with. I've spend hours queueing as a healer and not gotten anything. It usual take minutes if not seconds.

I am trying to cut down on trading because I can't seem to find time to actually do anything else except dailies and gathering gold. Those traders with 1M+ sales per week must play all day every day and spend most of that time checking guild stores. All though I do that too and I'm not reaching 1M, only a couple hundred thousand.

How exactly is that a bad thing? I wouldn't call myself a long time player, only been playing for a year, but I'm glad they removed vet ranks.

Veteran ranks were beyond awful and they rightfully should be gone.

>>144257427

>>144257427
But now everyone can see your champion rank and know you're a long-time player. Before everyone was just v16 so you couldn't actually tell who's been playing for a long time and who's just reached max level.

I suspect a lot of it is "fake" numbers due to them handling huge amounts at the time. Someone buying a ring for 110k and selling it for 140k will in Master Merchant look like theyäre selling a lot while making the same profit as someone who farmed up and sold 2 stacks of unrefined materials.

>>144259251
All I keep hearing is stuff about Clockwork City being the next DLC. Orsinium at least was building to it.

Considering the Sweetroll killer quest it's pretty confirmed that the next DLC will take place in Vvardenfell, no idea if it will be as big as Orsinium tho. It probably will.

I'm not a vet, but when I first began playing nearly a year ago, I was kind of weirded that there weren't any 'thieves guild' quests.

As I understood the lore, the Thieves' Guild is normally a fairly nebulous collection of orgaizations, so I didn't quite expect the full guild, but at least some quests that could be taken from outlaw's dens.

I got this game on Xbone for $15
I played an Orc Warrior, finished the starting area, accidentally smacked someone after waking up, ran to the docks and got the first boat out of there to some strange desert port, now I'm helping a pirate by freeing people from dungeons. I kept dying until I figured out that I actually had like 6 skills and started fucking people up. Can anyone explain to me what the hell I'm doing and where I should be going?

Hell, speaking of the propylon indices, would the Dunmer Strongholds be active at this point in time? might be cool to see them as actual centers of regional hubs with their own little cultures, and given how they all look pretty much the same it would totally fit zenimax's MO for zone architecture

Player created quests.

It'd be hell to put in but it could be a fun sort of 'closest we'll get to a Creation Kit' in the game. It would open up a lot of RP opportunities for players, and just be fun to basically have "Quest Mods: The DLC".

But that's all just me, and it's really a piper dream. But one that makes me smile.

>>144287057
look, Dominion has had my favorite story so far, but from an in-universe standpoint, the Dominion's storyline involves more intrigue and infighting than the fucking ebonhart pact which includes Dunmer and Argonians. How the fuck do you mess up your faction that badly?

Also, while Queen Ayrenn's made decent enough choices so far, I can't blame her brother at all because the bitch went off without a word, faffed about for ten years and then decides to drop in just as her brother's about to receive the crown? What part of her thought that wouldn't piss people off?

Given Covenant fights the most daedric threats in their story, I don't see your redguard having a problem unless they're a weird redguard who likes magic.

Oh, you might have an issue with the Breton allies. But that's probably the extent of it.

Okay, for some reason switching weapons is dismounting me, where I don't think it did in the past. It looks like it is auto unsheathing the weapon on swap when it didn't in the past. Is there a way to stop this?

wait, do you need the DLC to use poisons? LAME. I just mixed up a shitload and now I can't use the goddamn things. how does it work anyway? I assumed they'd be one time use but they have a weapon slot. do they get multiple uses?
>>144292497
I've noticed that when switching between healing and destro staves they keep the stance of whatever was out first. seems buggy, but they definitely changed something about swapping.

stam classes can't heal unless you count vigor.
nightblades are more off-dps healers, but have plenty of hots. if your group is reliable enough, nb healers will pull the same or higher dps while keeping everyone up.

The crafting benches for the trait set trail by fire has a bunch of white quality items you can pick up for each of them 3 profession, they ain't stolen and they respawn every time you log out. So you pick them all up, log out, log back in, puck them up, wait until your inventory full then deconstruct them all and repeat.

Some of them have zero gold value and don't give much exp but others do have value and give you a bunch, also because everything in Wrothgar drops items based on your level, you won't out-level it. So I was v1 before patch and now I'm what was v16, so I turned up with 35 in blacksmithing, clothing and 20 in woodworking and got voidcloth, shadowhide, nightwood and voidstone items.

Just went from 48 to half 49 on 80 woodworking items, some of them being ones of zero value.

what if cyrodill transit port lines worked like planetside transit lines?

I haven't done much pvp to get a feel for it on my own, but how are faction balance? are they even, or are there factions that constantly steamroll others?

To me, so far, it seems to be balance pretty well

>>144306909
Seems rather back and forth. In the PC NA <50 map, at times I've looked at the map and our guys were doing great, right now they're getting fucked tho, and the badguys are stealing the scrolls from each other.

what kind of masochistic Korean grind am I in for

>>144311768
If you want to grind I'm sure there's a Final Fantasy general up somewhere.

>>144311768
fuck all grind
max rank for gear is cp160
which means you level to levels 1-50 then you get things called champion points which are essentially points to put into talent trees type of thing, the max of this cp501. So in other words it's 160 to get to end game and then 501 if you really want to squeeze every possible increase into your characters stats. To get to 501 it takes about 140 hours if you go full autismo mob grind, so you think how long it takes to get just 160.

tl;dr the grind is causal as fuck

Also turn off most of tatical combat because it's too much.

>>144334037
bummer

>>144334107
thanks bro

Yo I just got this game earlier

What race and class is best for solo play? I don't want to sink loads of time into a wasted character and I don't have many friends who play this

>>144333705
Next OP should really consider having a few recommended addons. I try to keep the addons to a minimum but there are a few that's pretty much essential.

> Buying and Selling
Master Merchant and Awesome Guild Store. The former allows you to keep track of your sales in your guilds, and also gives you an overview of how many time each item's been sold, the prices, average price and so on. Awesome guild store allows you to search for items in guild stores in a way easier fashion than vanilla eso.

> Inventory
Advanced Filters and Inventory Grid View. The former allows make sub-categories in your inventory so instead of having all weapons in the same view, you have one-handed separate from two-handed, and so on.

> Crafting
Craftstore and Lazy Writ Creator. Bind craftstore to a single key and you'll be able to have all the info you want (what you're researching, how long time it will take, what styles you know and don't know) regarding your crafing progress. Lazy Writ Creator makes the items required in the writes automaticly, it's a really simple things but after crafting it manually for a while you'll find it a godsend.

>Map
Destinations and Skyshard. Destinations is great for when you've done an area and want to make sure you haven't missed anything, since it allows you to see questmarkers and locations you haven't discovered. There's loads of Skyshard addons, doesn't matter what one you pick. For some reason Destinations don't show Skyshards.

>>144334546
You won't have trouble doing solo content with any class or race combination. If you're planning on getting the Thieves Guild addons and Dark Brotherhood, Nightblades will have a somewhat easier time since there's a lot of sneaking and focus on not getting noticed in those two.

>>144334316
Can't really hope to play anything with that thing desu.

Still, there's morrowind mode but they also switched to DX11 only so idk if you'll have much luck.

>>144335591
>Breton
>Cute

If you're after a qt race it's Bosmer you need to look at 2bh

>>144339462
I'm having a hard time remembering them all. The Covenant have the eccentric breton mage. Ebanheart have a dunmer who helps out her brother searching for artefacts and a bitchy assasin. The Dominion have the qt Khajiit pirate.

There's more bros tho. Raz, Darien, Skordo the Knife. Green-Venom-Tongue is someone I wished we got more off.

>>144354046
Scroll wheel helps.

any qt Orcishwaifus in DC?

With this shit being 50% off right now on Steam I'm wondering if it's worth a purchase.

Looking for a world to get lost in, adventure around and build up a character.

>>144356075
Not really since the skin tones are a bit fucked.

>>144359021
You can probably get it cheaper still if you shop around through some of the code seller sites.

>>144359021
you can get it for $15 elsewhere
dont buy it from steam, the steam launcher is shit and nobody uses it. Get it cheap from somewhere like g2a or a less gray distributor (you can still get it for like $20 from a totally official source if you dig around), register the key on your account in the games main website, and download the installer from there.

Its worth that much if you like TES, whether or not its a super long term game or not will vary from person to person though.

>>144359175
>>144359332
Interesting, another MMO steam fails to do any favors for. I'll see if I can convince myself either way, thanks anons.

>>144356075
From one Orc lover to another, stick with Skyrim for Orc waifus. Between the poor hair choices, grey-not-green skin palettes, baby tusks and noses it's pretty tough to make a proper looking she-Orc

Biggest complaint with the game is how they just copy/pasted Skyrim's boring UI

Do something to give ESO it's own feel instead of this apple iphone shit

>>144361395
don't get it on console then

Can we discuss lore? Because there's a lot of fucked up shit in ESO.

Wards are generally considered part of the restoration school. But there's one that sorcerers can cast that allows you to "conjure globes of Daedric energy to protect you and your summoned creatures". But what *is* this Daedric energy? Are you summoning daedric beings that you're making a meatshield out of?

>>144363334

Just got the game and am downloading it right now. Always loved Argonians all the way back to Morrowind. Wanted to make a tank in this case. Any advice for a new player? Pitfalls and all that good stuff?

What's your favorite DLC so far? while i liked Dark brotherhood, i still love Imperial City, especially now.

>>144370342
If you haven't played an MMO before, make sure you spend some time up front to learn to use the combat system properly. If not, you're going to have a bad time.
Argonions have a unique racial bonus to healing received. Many people like them for tanks because of this.

>dungeon queues are broken for all roles
>no one in Cyrodil even though the new PvP is horrible

You know, I was really starting to like this game. Guess I'll come back in a few weeks and see if everything is less fucked.

>>144371372
IC and Orsinium by far.

TG and DB are nice but the zones are kinda small and they don't really add much in terms of replayability and regular involvement. Though I guess TG and DB were designed more to flesh out the justice system than add huge new zones, so it's forgivable I guess.

I-is the endgame of this mmo worth eating endless hours of grinding for in order to reach that point or is it dissapointing? I remember i had a low level veteran sorcerer there, training crafts...

I fucking love this games crafting system though

>>144374831
They've disbanded the veteran system. It's all about champion points now.

>>144375502
What, so level 50 is the max now wihout counting the champ points?

>>144375972
exactly

>>144376093
What about the old veteran equipment then?

Also, is it still worth it to lay down bucks for dee eel see and try to join up boss content?

>>144376252
it requires so many CP to use instead

the main difference is, now you can use it on any character since CP is account based.

>>144370037
What is ice barrage? And by snare do you mean the dark magic one or that undaunted one?

>>144373141
I bought IC but every-time I went to fight something I died horribly..it looks like a group only zone?

>>144377602
They nerfed IC recently, The bosses can be four manned.

>fuck up a build because I misread something
>super low on gold because of the respec, can't afford another yet
>sit in dps queue for way too fucking long
>get kicked as I teleport into the dungeon

It wasn't even a fucking vet dungeon. It was a normal one. If I wanted this shit I'd just play The Division and get kicked every time I try to run the incursion.

>>144377907
The big thing is they rebalanced the random trash to one person, and the bosses to be team-based.

You know, kinda like how it should have been from the beginning considering their gameplay trailers.

>>144377602
The roaming bosses and district bosses require relatively large groups to do, depending on the skill level of the group, but IC is mainly a PvP zone, so go take the ladders to the enemy base and gank some farmers, or run around on the surface doing the district capture shit. The PvE farming has to be done with a relatively large or skilled group, or else you just get ganked and can't kill bosses fast enough to be properly efficient.

Exactly what did you fuck up?

>>144381701
Was looking for a way to go back to using heavy armor in a build that wasn't being a tank, found build, went full retard and misinterpreted the example gear they showed as being full heavy. Didn't read the details and focused on what abilities they used.

Now I'm wearing heavy armor on a dual wield magicka build that was meant for light armor. Mostly I'm just annoyed that I did this right after paying for guild trader access and no one's buying my perfect roe because the trader is in Wayrest.

I've played other MMO, usually tanking. Is there a set class for tanking? Or at least ones that shouldnt?

>>144382517
Most classes can do everything if you spec for it, granted to varying degrees of success. That said the they recently unfucked alt characters on PC, and in about a week and a half will unfuck it on consoles.

>>144382301
>Wayrest

Nigga that's one of the best locations to have a GS in, it's a capital city and the stores are cross faction.

About that build, leaving 2 piece heavy chest and legs + 5 light is a perfectly viable way to play.

Also DW increases your spell damage a lot.

>>144382974
I've kind of salvaged it, but picture having a bunch of skills in the heavy tree while wearing one or two pieces at this point.

>>144382654
Oh thats good. Was wanting nightblade since they seemed the most magic-light. Didn't want to be shitting light as an argonian, or going around shooting spikes and breathing fire like a mini deathwing.

And alt characters?

>>144382974
Depends on which trader it is. The one closest to the the wayshrine gets as many sales as other top guilds but the ones farthest away are small-time stores on the level of the random guild stores near some wayshrine in the wilderness.

>>144383601
Alternate characters. Say you decide you want to play a different race/class. The way the system was you had to level to 50, then level through 16 "veteran levels" while gaining champion points and doing literally every zone in the game.

Now your level at max is determined by your champion points, which you earn for your account. Get your main character to CP 160, then you decide to make a new guy? As soon as the new guy hits level 50, he's instantly CP 160.

The only thing left to grinding is getting skill points.

>>144383861
Well thats neat. I was kinda wondering how I was going to go about doing the Dark Brotherhood and Theives stuff while wearing abunch of heavy plate.

How bad is the grind? I dont mind grinds so long as its not approaching Korea levels.

>>144383835
It's in the row of traders between the wayshrine and the gate, but I never see anyone in the city, at least not to the degree I see people in Mournhold.

Though now that I think of it, maybe that's because I'm Ebonheart Pact? Does it hide other-faction people from you outside of Cyrodiil?

>>144384137
Yes.

There's a lot of traffic on the daggerfall covenant side.

>>144383601
If you really want to tank, go dk or templar. When you queue for a dungeon, people will be glad to see you.
Many of the class abilities have stamina morphs.

>>144382301
Look on the bright side. I'm assuming you're on console because after the Dark Brotherhood DLC it cost one gold per skill point to reset. So a full reset cost like 300 gold.

>>144382517
In the hardest of the trials, that's basically raids, tanks are expected to be dragonknights. In the rest of the content you can be a tank with whatever class you want. They just have different tools to play with when it comes to damage migration and staying alive.

Why couldn't Argonians have gotten that as a heavy armour hat instead of the fucking pot they have not.

If you strictly do just the skill quests and get lorebooks + skyshards in the story zones, you can underlevel them. So you should be okay.

Dragonknight is great for tanking, then again you can do it with every class. The only thing needed is commitment.

Rivenspire was the best of any main region across any alliance. Actually got me to feel feels.

Yeah, it was just amusing how literally everything was a vampire but I actually liked that one a bit, and this is someone who clicks through all non V16 content.

Account or server based?

Just rolled a Sorcerer. My friend is going pure DPS stormage sorcerer, and we're playing through together. Here's my question: I'm looking to find a fun (probably goofy and/or useless) build to take me through the main story content for the moment. I'm half-tempted to go as a Tank, although usually I like healing roles. Any advice?

>>144397912
>Wait really?
Yes really, you can now wear the highest level gear in the game, across all characters that are level 50 because you have higher than 160cp which is across your account now.

>>144399669
You forgot the part in Stonefalls, where you have to save a bunch of coral. Seriously fuck EP storyline, DC/AD stories are better and I skipped most of AD.

>>144403392
That's not really part of the storyline, it's one of those side missions
Either way, outside of a few things most non-endgame content is pretty eh.

>>144403430
It part of Cadwell's Almanac and the heart is used in the last quest in the zone to help defeat the "boss".

>>144403057
The two lightning buffs, the lightning ground aoe, and the destro staff pbaoe were what I used running through the main questline and alliance storyline. Might want to switch to something more single target for boss encounters or whatever, but it clears camps nicely. Damage on destro bar, buffs, healing, wards on healing staff bar. Might need one of the wards on mainbar now witht he shorter duration.

>>144399669
This made me laugh, it's so fucking true.

New anon here; Is it possible to have a viable character featuring something akin to a magical knight or fistycuffs monk?

File: macroer.jpg (343KB, 1280x720px)

343KB, 1280x720px

So this lvl 466 person seems to be macroing on the infinispawn bear. Am I correct to assume it's for the fur or whatever you loot from the bears? And how tf can he be in an instance of this map where the quest isn't finished at that level? It's part of the AD mainquest, so he can't have done any of the skill quests beyond this point, as well as no silver or gold quests?

>>144409809
I don't know about a fistycuffs monk, but a magical knight is def doable

>>144409809
not really, from a min/max standpoint
>fistycuffs
no, well you'll be severally handicapped, I mean like good fucking luck, you'll be locked out of using good percentage of abilities
>magical knight
if you mean full heavy armour and using magicka, you can do it, it won't be easy or good for end-endgame, like doing raids or maxed out pvp. You can go stam and have heavy armour with magical looking buffs that give you dragon spike armour, buff your weapons making them molten like etc but you won't be like suit of armour with a weapon in one hand and spell in the other.

>>144410991
How might it be possible? Can any class do it, or just specific classes?

>>144410991
>>144409809
magicka templar tank is probably the best fit for a magical knight-y character.

I'm fairly sure magicka-based knights are viable for all classes. Pic related is my sorcerer tank, screenshot taken just seconds ago.

>>144411971
viable? yes

able to be played at a competitive endgame level as anything but a tank? no

He may have grinded to level and is going back through the quests to pick up skill points and bear skins.

Try going through and killing all the mobs along the way and then run through before they respawn. I did it this way once.
Or get some invisibility pots.

I have a DK tank that's a magicky knight. Sword and board with fire everywhere.

>>144416951
Would it be possible to tank with a greatsword, or dps is a magicked greatsword?

Dunmer or Altmer character? I like both races, though arguably Dunmer more because I love Morrowind and their culture, but I don't like the look of the EP and I'd only care for Morrowind.

On the other hand the Altmer have the Aldmeri Dominion which I like, as well as their cool armour schemes. Also Altmer females seem to look better than Dunmer and I put a lot on how characters physically appear.

>>144418342
dunmer or n'wah

what a simple choice

>>144418342
Altmar has better passive, they zones ain't dark and dreary and the storyline isn't complete ass.

>>144417360
You need s&b abilities to tank well, that's where the melee taunt is. You can certainly dps with 2h.

>>144419078
Most of the passives can be had some other way, but if you compare the staff passives, the Dunmer passive gives more damage/skill point when you go flame staff.

>>144421350
I see.

What about doing builds that mix stamina/magicka on them? As far as I've seen, class abilities do damage based on magicka, and only weaponry does damage with stamina. Wouldn't it be hard to do something viable, compared to a pure stamina/magicka?

>>144421720
Every class has a few damage skills that can be morphed to use stamina. Dps focuses on one or the other because that maximizes damage. Trying to do both is gimping yourself. Tanks need both resources because blocking and bashing takes stamina and many skills they need to use take magicka. But tanks still try to focus on one resource or the other in order to maximize damage because everyone should help with damage, including tanks and healers.

>>144419078
Which female race has the best looking females?

>>144422534
Hm. I knew Nightblades could morph a lot of skills into Stamina, but I had my doubts about the other ones.

Does the weapon you have skills alloted to affect the damage the class skills deal? As if, if using a class skill, would they deal more damage with a sword or a staff if it were magicka based?

>>144422717
Any Mer race. Dunmer in particular.

>healer starts complaining about his job

>"well, why dont you guys just heal yourselves"

>>144422798
Skill damage or healing is based on your maximum magicka and spell damage for magicka skills and maximum stamina and weapon damage for stamina skills. Weapon skill lines have passives that increase damage in some way when wielding those weapons.

If you want to create a character that can be a good tank one day and a good dps the next, you can once you have enough points.
My DK tank is leveling s&b and destro staff. I put the bulk of my points into health and use armor, enchants and food to boost stam or magicka. If I want to brawl, I grab my sword and shield, put on my heavy armor with more stam, if I want to run around spamming flames, I put on my light armor, grab my staff to set the countryside on fire.

Tank-healer couple is best couple

>>144424865
If the healer is using some healing abilities (you can heal pretty much every vet dungeon with mutagen and healing ward spam) but people are dying really fast, it's usually because the DPS are shit, with low numbers and are standing in red circles a lot.

People just jump onto the healer as someone to blame when people die. Unless you're in CoA/ICP/WGT or trials, it really doesn't matter how good the healer is so long as he spams mutagen.

>>144320339
How much cp? Armor?

>>144430907

Can't decide between wolf and snake buff from Bosmer Insight. Making a stealth archer. What did you guys pick?

>>144432169
Wtf are you on about?

>>144427491
The problem with this is, you have to pick either a stam or mag morph for most of DK's primary damage skills, if you pick stam morphs and use mag you'll be doing bugger all damage. Plus you'll need to reset your CP every time to switch from physical to magical and stam to mag.

>>144432462

Just moused over the buff, says Grahtwood only. Damn.

In high sight, was removing the soft cap a mistake?

>>144433041
Well, as a tank, you're still going to want to be primarily magicka based because most of the skills useful to a tank have no stam morph. You will need a lot more stamina as a tank than as a dps because you will be doing a lot more blocking and dodging.

>>144436367
Then what is the end of the question; besides health, how do apply points and stats so a tank doesn't lack anything?

eeeeeeugh ok fuck it ill buy it for 30 bucks. nostalrius is dead and the dark souls 3 dlc isnt out for a while, so fuck it.

I'm sure it actually harder to find this full price than on sale.

You could've gotten it for 15 bucks from OP's link tho

>>144437068
What class are you tanking with? I can give advice but each class is different, and they have different stat requirements as mag or stam tanks.

>>144439051
Yeah I wanted to get it on steam although now that I'm thinking about I can't really explain why.

>>144439662
I'm not the anon that was talking with you about the tanking, but the affirmation on tanks requiring literally everything got me curious on the matter. So if we could speak about every class...
