So far it's only in one dungeon and we don't know if it can't be done, it's just that all guilds running the veteran Maw of Lorkhaj do it competetively and as such min-max, meaning you'll be getting a DK tank and Templar healer.

why even do T10 writs? I thought only T9 writs gave craglorn surveys for crux.

>>147798768
Because I wanted that guy to make gear. Still makes money even if there's an expensive mat tho

Volatile armor or hardened armor tesog?

>>147799017

... if you're already on tier 10 aren't you done leveling up the craft?

>>147799173

Hardened. The shield is actually really good for pulls, prevents your healer from taking aggro before you can taunt.

>>147799415
Yes.

>>147799601

so.. clarify for me why you're doing writs? I mean T9 I'd understand for crux, maybe glass motifs. But do T10's even give crux and glass motifs?

>>147799747
Doing them for gold and the gold tempers. No to crux on the surveys, yes to the other stuff. The reason why this guy isn't doing the craglorn level writs is because I still make stuff with him.

>no option to hunt down players who are degenerate vampires/werewolves

so question...

Initially I had leveled up an Argonian Tank DK, and this was a character from launch so at the time, for dps DK's were all magicka, fire damage, there was no poison damage and stam was shit. So basically I leveled all in heavy armor, sword and board, with an inferno staff for solo questing. Yes it was slow and miserable. I only started using 1 piece of medium and 1 piece of light when undaunted passives hit when I was already VR12 and had done all the Silver/Gold content, so leveling those armor types has been slow. Now I have done all the content except the last little bit of the DB questline, so quests are all dried up almost, just dailies I can do left, so switching to stam DK not really an option.

With the race changes coming Argonian becomes shit for tank so I'm going to need to buy a race (and name, because I gave my argonian an argonian name..) change. Should I:

1. Make it a Dark Elf Magicka DPS (since I have all the magicka morphs and Destruction staff maxed anyway). I started borrowing my sorcerer's gear so my light armor is at 44 now.
2. Change it to Imperial or Nord and keep it tank, even though I don't have friends to tank for anymore and haven't actually tanked anything since VR14..
3. Just leave it to rot and level up my level 4 Dunmer DK that I was going to play for a dps dk at some point
4. Leave the Argonian to Rot, Delete the Dunmer (really only loss is some gold in expanding inventory space and mount speed), and make a Redguard Stamina DK? I know Khajiit is going to be better in the change but after having played an animal character for so long I don't want to make a furry.

>>147803053
There really should be a lot more, or any at all, PvP in PvE environments. The justice system is a joke. Hopeful they'll revisit it once "One Tamriel" rolls out since everyone will be scaled anyway.

> Duels, proper tournaments where people get invited to a mansion where people can watch or compete, completely controlled and fixed by the mansion owner
> Proper justice system; If you get a bounty, other people should be able to claim it if they beforehand have flagged themselves as bounty hunters; to engage in PvP someone have to have a bounty, and the bounty-hunter can choose to attack or not. If the bounty-hunter doesn't attack nothing happens.

Just imagine gangs of criminals roaming around and trying to taunt and trick fresh bounty-hunters into attacking them, or entire guilds taking up the mantle to stop the criminal scum.

>>147803252
I think you should keep the argonian tank and git gud

>>147803704

there is no reason to keep a tank DK as an argonian once the changes go through.

At launch, Argonian DK tank made sense. Nord's damage reduction didn't factor in because you were softcapped on armor (it was just an armor bonus) anyway, and Imperial health modifiers were also moot because of softcaps to health. So incoming healing was pretty good for tanks, the only thing that was arguably better was red diamond on Imperial because of a bug with caltrops (Imp tanks could heal constantly just by laying caltrops on top of the boss)

But things have changed. Now argonian is going to be no better than like.. Altmer for tank.

Yea, for all I care it could be forced to either be outside the cities (like the NPC duels) or placed at designated Arenas in each zone. I just want more stuff placed into the hands of the players.

I've seen some NPC's duel in Anvil. I mean I've seen the mage duels in the wild too but there was actually a pair of fist fighting NPC's outside of a tavern in Anvil. They were calling each other ugly and shit to piss each other off too. I think it was an Imperial male and he beat a Nord female.

Then they walked into the Tavern and got drinks together.

Why have I not thought of this.

Is there any reason to do alchemist writs? What's the best things you can get from them?

>>147807086

>get less xp than just crafting a potion
>no gold temper items or anything like that
>get 3 reagent water and a few mats maybe a survey to some mats

Not really. some people argued it was good for leveling with but it's better to just crank out potions.

>>147807086
Very quick to finish, and the 666 gold + few regs/water make it easily worth it.

>>147807935
>>147807086
I should add, all the writs are worth doing for quick gold in your daily routine. Get lazy writ creator and the potion maker addons and you can knock them out and get your 4k gold in short order. Keep the skill at the second highest level to hand in at craglorn for the chance at nirncrux with the surveys unless you plan to make stuff you want to use. I have two characters I do the writs with - the gold reward is related to character level: 666 gold for max lvl, some lower amount for low level character, doesn't matter if you're handing in the writs to the starter zone, gold can still be 666, but higher level writs do seem to have better chance at the good tempers.

>>147808369
I do all writs except alchemist, but if the only thing alch gets is a chance at nirncrux, I'm not sure it's worth doing.

Actually it probably is. Well other than the detour to Belkarth. My other alts are at max because I find getting void mats too hard.

>>147808616
Time spent for the gold and items you get is probably still better than any other quest or activity other than trading and other writs.

>>147809147
On that note I can't wait for One Tamriel so I can use Rawl'Kha as my crating place, so the boards, stations, bank and wayshrine are close to each other.

Does legitimate pve exist in this game? I really like the class system and build variety and shit, but the only draw for me in MMOs is endgame pve shit.

>>147809649
There's trials and vet dungeons to do as far as pve goes. I'd apply for a decent PvE guild for consistent groups/raids.

>>147809313
Rawl'kha is going to be so packed when that patch/exp comes out. I wonder how hard it will be to join one of the trading guilds there.

>>147809774
cool, good to know.

They'll probably start migrating to Rawl'kha, so just join them now.

Only nirncrux-related businesses are done there afaik.

Why the fuck did they make T10 crafting cost so much material? Back when T9 (voidstone/shadowhide) was the top tier material it didn't cost that much and you actually got a decent amount of material when you deconstructed shit. Having to grab 700+ in a material to craft a full suit is just frustrating more than anything else.

potential noob here. Did basic research, know basic games systems. is a magica nb vampire lifesteal style tank build viable for pve content? resto staff/fire staff, dunmer.

Refreshing path, swallow soul, invigorating drain (spam spell), inner fire, mutagen, and devouring swarm?

Shadow Barrier passive on refreshing path+Mutagen to handle burst damage. Endless self healing to handle sustained damage or burst periods.

>>147810560
>tank build
>resto staff/fire staff

I know you can figure this out, anon

>>147810646
i know. I'm just wondering how much of a raw requirement a shield is and if i can remove the requirement through superior lifesteal.

>>147810319
The costs aren't so drastic that you can't craft a set or two with the gold you'll have when you hit 160. I guess they wanted the top tier material to sit above the vendor price - keep some value.

>>147810691
>how much of a raw requirement a shield is

pretty raw, seeing as s&b is the only weapon tree with taunt

>>147810691

SB is an absolute requirement for proper tanking. There is no way around it, you NEED the block mitigation, and it is the most efficient means for hitting the armour cap. Contrary to what this anon says >>147811229 however, you don't need the taunt. Unless you are a DK (and consequentially have chains), you NEED the ranged undaunted taunt. There is no substitute in spread out fights, you can't afford to be running around taunting things, you need to be able to bring enemies to you.

On the subject of NB tanks, NB tanks are extremely strong (IMO on par with DK, saying that as a magNB tank that has run all trials except vMoL), but they are pretty complex. Their buff rotation is a lot more hectic than a DK's, as their major ward/resolve buff is only 11 seconds duration, and they need to keep 5 different buffs up constantly to be most effective (Refreshing Path, Siphoning Attacks, Mirage, Structured Entropy and Swallow Soul) on top of keeping the taunts up.

If you are new, you want to focus on having decent gear, as this is vital for NB tanks more than most, as your sustain is based on your damage rather than percentages like DK. You want to level your crafting, especially blacksmithing, and get researching traits, as the best armour is high trait stuff (my preferred magNB tank set being Kagrenac's Hope, which is 8 trait). You will also want to save money for Willpower jewelry, which is pretty important, as well as spell damage enchantments to put on them. Beyond armour, it's also super important to have enchanting leveled, or else you will get jewed on your glyphs, as well as provisioning and alchemy, as access to proper food is fantastic from the start, and vital at endgame, as is access to proper potions (don't waste mats on potions under CP160 though).

That and 1000ms ping out of nowhere.

Are stampler viable in lategame? Friends and I started playing the game again and everyone made a new char. Because I already have a NB and had some fun with a templar healer (leveled him from lvl1 to V5 some time ago) I created a Templar and wanted to make a Jack of all trades kinda dude and now I wanted to ask you if you think that that kinda thing is even viable.

>>147814465
It may not be the only reason, but for me that happened because the game can't tolerate more than two seconds or so of the connection being broken. Also, it may not look like the internet goes down, because it only has to stop briefly anywhere between you and the game, other bits of the internet can be fine.

>>147815461
Stamplars are very good late/endgame. You'd be best going for only one role, reason being for maximum effectiveness. Don't get me wrong, you can be a tanky DPS with decent self heals, but it would be detrimental to spread your role across the whole board as a jack of all trades, Pve or PvP scenario included.

>>147810691
The only class I know off that can tank without a shield are sorcerers who stack barriers but that is NOT something I recommend for beginners.

Such a tank relies on Overload to restore magicka that he later transform into stamina and health trough Dark deal. Such a tank generally don't need a healer but he's fucked once he runs out of juice.

>>147817183
Not sure what it's like for Stamplar but being slightly more jack-of-all-trades is a pretty good route for a Magplar in PvP. In fact, most classes in PvP require you to sacrifice something to increase your survivability (the minimum for a stam builds focused on damage is obviously running Vigor).

>>147824149
You know what I'm asking, What's the difference between a Dragon knight a Templar a sorcerer and a nightblade using a 2H

>>147824272
no difference

>>147824272
No difference really. Just the way the class is played is different.

>>147824443
Then type out the difference, are they all viable in min/maxing.

>>147824492
are you retarded? there is no difference. if you want to use a 2h on a stamina nightblade, go ahead, it will work great. you want to use a 2h on a stamina dragonknight? go ahead, it will work great. you want to use a 2h on a stamina sorcerer? go ahead, it will work great. stamina templar? yes 2h works great. what don't you get? there is no difference.

>>147824492
Yes but it would take too long to explain.

Actually currently the top stam dps builds all run the same skills except for one or two class specific ones so it doesn't really matter.

>>147824492
It's difficult since every build/playstyle varies. DK/templar i would reckon mirror eachother and differ in minor roles, that stamplar is a little better with self healing while being tanky.
Stam sorc i have yet to play, gotta watch Fengrush for that, he's a good SS. Stamblade would revolve around high-burst, stealthing if they can't kill the target. These are all PvP-centric scenarios, PvE wouldn't differ too much, maybe a different lineup of abilities. Attack weaving/animation cancelling should remain the same.

>>147824815

>>147825471
I'd go for a templar if you wanna be more like a paladin. DK's can breathe fire, strike with a claw of fire, do a dragon leap, flex scales, and have a neat fire whip. There's many more.

>>147825841
And do Templar get cool abilities like that?

>>147826073
You can chuck spears of light, stab with a javelin, and charge with a spear. Ultimate is calling down this blob of sunlight or a sweep of spears i think.

>>147824718
>except for one or two class specific ones so it doesn't really matter.

Class passives also factor into things but I'd say they're generally a lot closer now than they have been for a while. I'm still pretty jealous of NB passives though, the main thing they're missing is access to a form of Mending.

>>147826256
Thanks mate!, Makes it hard to choose between them

>>147826407

I'd argue that Stam DKs are stronger than Stamplars overall if you're interested in mix-maxing.

>>147826512
I'm not really I just thought if I mentioned it people will give more in depth answers than anything can do anything.

>>147826512
What's so good about stam DKs? Their ults look better, but their abilities don't look great.

>>147830081
If you're crafting equipment, use it. If not, sell it.

>>147830081
use all the blue motifs, they're common as fuck

So if I buy a new horse, will all my stats from my imperial mount move over to that one, or will it be a fresh horse?

>>147830081
Since all the basic motifs are worth 100g, learn them and sell the rest. Or give it away.

>>147830691
stats are tied to your character rather than the mount, so yeah they'll move over.

>>147830691
Stats apply to the rider, not the mount so new mounts will perform as well as the old one.

Provisioning is easy to level and you want to make your own food. You can find all levels of green recipes for really cheap and ingredients are cheap too and not hard to gather either.

Oh, dude, I made hundreds of thousands of gold off selling tier 2 and 3 provisioning recipes back in the day. They were selling for 3k (blue) and 1500-2k (green). This was before the justice system even so it was really easy to farm. You just needed characters at the right levels.

Oh I wasn't shitting on him or on pugs, just pointing out that it's fairly common to encounter someone who haven't done whatever veteran dungeon you're doing and in this case it's fairly obvious why no one knew the mechanics.

>>147831167
My main is male, but I also got 3 other characters.

Orc male sorcerer because I ain't no Warchiefs bitch, high elf female templar because it's a known fact that all male altmer are gay and dark elf female dragonknight because they are the BDSM race. Every time my DK cracks that molten whip my dick twitches just a little

There are countless forum threads across all MMOs where someone asks why would a male play a female character, and every one of those threads is exactly the same.

The best answer that I think applies to this is >>147835251

My reasoning for picking character genders is actually a lot more complex than what I wrote above and I put way more thought into it than I should, because autism, but essentially it all comes down to what animations the game has for each gender, what armors, what class it will be, what race is it. Basically, aesthetics.

But if you feel insecure playing with a female character, I might have some bad news for you it's ok tho, transsexuals are becoming more and more accepted

>>147836530
Yeah I actually don't try to make my chars look like me (even though I like my looks lol), I prefer them to be sort of independent entities guided by my will.

Guys, how to get back on track with crafting levels? Leveling CP has been super fast after hitting level 50 due to enlightenment and now the gear I can craft is going to be 2 whole tiers below what at-level mobs can drop in a moment.

I've recently asked the hairdresser to recommend some hair products to turn my jewfro into normal human hair, so take anything I say with a grain of salt, but with the eso+ crowns from next month you could get a horse. With the eso+ crowns from subsequent months, some of the DLCs would be a good bet - wrothgar first, then IC, then maybe save up for a big pvp DLC if it happens, or another story DLC. There's not a lot you truly need. You can knock over the other DLCs easily in an eso+ month on your main and your magicka sorc crafting alt, so you prob don't need to buy them, and the little critter pets are only there if you're into cutesy shit. Some of the expensive vanity mounts can be worth it tho if you are entertained by triggering people that get mad about that shit.

Actually those bonuses help/hurt more in pve, since if you're good you can just out play them.

You can definitely get shit on dps wise if you aren't optimal race end game. The racial bonuses in this game are pretty relevant compared to most mmos.

Why the hell did a single player game fail at making one of the capitals of Skyrim feel like a city while an MMO succeeded?

the cities look nothing alike. TESO's dev team never played Morrowind and it shows.

They made Skyrim areas and Cyrodiil fairly faithful to the single player games as far as town layouts go, but Mournhold looks nothing like what it was in TES3. People can excuse it as "well this takes place 1000 years before Skyrim!" okay so 750 years before Morrowind.. so why are wooden buildings in Skyrim the same 1000 years ago and villages in Cyrodiil are the same in Oblivion despite being in a war, but stone buildings in Mournhold are completely rearranged?

Worst part probably is the lack of proper walls.

>>147860814

fucking hell, that is pretty damn drastic. I hope they do just a bit better with Vvardenfell.

Though, at least with ESO, the one thing I can say is that compared to the TES3 Mournhold, the ESO one just looks 'incomplete', like the city is still growing.

Though that doesn't make much more sense since Mournhold's been around since the first era. Still, it does at least look like ESO Mournhold can and will one day grow into the circular city.

I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. I hate most community mods. LotRO's especially.

Despite fucking up their game, I always did like Arenanet as devs though, say what you want about GW2 but it's kind of cool that they log in visibly and play with other players, you'll randomly fight against them in PVP matches or in a WvW zerg with them or doing map meta events sometimes you'll pug a dungeon and there's an anet dev who just randomly joins the group.

I ran a jumping puzzle with one of their environmental artists and showed her a hole in the world. We went through the hole and found ourselves under the map and ran around confusing the fuck out of people because they could see our /says and occasionally we could do damage to the mobs from under the floor, but they didn't know where we were.

pic related the dev I exploited the game with.

>>147860426
because they're special snowflakes. They were descended from the Aldmer, so maybe they referred to themselves as such.

>>147856840
Budget.
Everything in TESO makes Skyrim look like it was banged out in a few months. I hope future games in the single player series get better budgets than Skyrim did.

>>147860814
If the cities looked alike it would be lore breaking

"In 2E 582, Mournhold was infiltrated by the Maulborn, a secretive Daedric cult posing as a charity organization. Because of this, the city was on high alert and no one could enter without being registered. Part of the Maulborn force managed to enter the Tribunal Temple through the sewers and opened portals to Oblivion inside. They were eventually defeated by the Vestige, who worked with Almalexia to eradicate the Maulborn threat. However, the cult was able to steal the artifact The Judgment of Saint Veloth from the temple. During the Alliance War, it served as the capital of the Ebonheart Pact.

During the Tiber Wars, the city was sacked by the Imperial legions, and was subsequently placed under military rule for a dozen years. Following its conquest by Tiber Septim and General Symmachus, it was gradually returned to civilian government and Queen Barenziah later ruled the Imperial Province of Morrowind from here. Over this time, due to the rise of Septim's empire, Almalexia commissioned an expansion effort and Mournhold was rebuilt. As a whole, the city then became known as Almalexia in her honor."

>>147862073

It's not budget, Skyrim was coming off of the backs of 2 GotY's that sold millions of copies. Skyrim had BGS's largest budget ever at the time I'm sure, they marketed it more than any of their past games, and it did extremely well financially because of that. It's made over a billion dollars easy.

The limitation was not budget, it was the Console hardware, particularly the Xbox 360.

A major issue was space. The 360 could only use regular DVD's, and for an open world game it'd be bad to swap discs, so they were required to make the entire game fit onto less than 7GB.

They did it but they took a lot of shortcuts to do it, especially using smaller textures, particularly for shadows, fewer NPC's, skipped animations on some things, and cut some content from the Civil War storyline.

Now here it is 750 years later, not only physically moving across a peninsula, but completely rearranging itself, and growing substantially, meanwhile Anvil and Kvatch and Riften and Windhelm have either shrunk, or stayed about the same for hundreds of years, and 1000 years in the Skyrim city's cases.

So yeah, quit making excuses about how it's appropriate in Lore, I like TESO, but they had some lazy devs who never touched a TES game prior to Oblivion in it.

How so? It's fucking true.

The reason the Cities from TES IV and V are the same in both the single player and MMO, and the cities from TES II and III are so different isn't because of some lore explanation handwaving it's because the Devs did not look into those games for their research when building the world in TESO.

Good NB players, magicka or stam are fucking frightening in pvp, and can infinitely 1vx bad players.

Also after the DB update, they are pushing the same dps as stam dks, and even more on certain fights.

So yeah, stam blades are amazing right now.

>>147871924
So is magicka just total shit right now? Seems like stam on everything is better than magicka.

>>147872768
Nah, magicka is viable depending on the class. But its much harder to make work, for lesser results. So viable, but not optimal.

Magicka sorcs and magicka NBs can be really deadly in pvp as well. But sorcs just aren't in the greatest spot currently. So mostly just NB.

Pve wise, its just not really worth it. Stam dps builds are absolute machines right now.

>>147871838
Use a proper screensjot if your console brain and the Sony overlord allow you.

>>147869909
The lore handwaving was done before TES3, dumbass. You don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.

>>147873091
what about magicka templars? aren't all of the heals magicka based?

>>147873091

I've constantly switched between magicka and stam sorc since release and right now the biggest problem for me as a mag sorc is that the boost to stamina means that everyone stack shuffle meaning nothing but velocious curse can be used to cause damage. Overload is useless since everyone and their mother can see it, same with crystal fragment.

The only ace up my sleeve is to make people spent a lot of stamina to break free from restraining prison, cast meteor, cast rune cage and then just bombard them with dots. But that works pretty much never because as soon as there's someone else around they'll pop and cage and give said person cc immunity, even if I start the fight as 1 vs 1.

>>147876473
>stam sorc
how does that even work?

>>147875923
Not sure, if you're heals than its fine, groups need a dedicated templar healer. But I've heard absolutely nothing about them dps wise.

>>147876473
Yeah I actually feel bad about sorcs. Those mines are fucking annoying though.

>>147876837
Get stamina, attack.

>>147876837
Lots of spells can be morphed to be stam based, and then you use stam weapons too. Simple.

>>147877004
>Yeah I actually feel bad about sorcs.

Same. Personally I think they should undo the Streak nerf or at least reduce it a bit. Either get rid of the cost debuff or reduce the cost debuff and get rid of the 'delay' it has. If Zeni don't want Sorcs running round with shields up all the time then fair enough, but at least make it a super mobile class when playing Magicka.

Can you level the pvp skill lines by killing mobs like in the sewers? Or can you only level it by killing other players?

>>147879943
Anything on your bar when you get xp gets leveled.

>>147880653
I'm talking about the actual skill line, not the individual abilities

>>147879943
PvP skill line requires Alliance Points rather than experience points. Your best bet is to defend some keeps/resources and kill some enemy players.

>>147869909
Mournhold is literally the only city from III in ESO though. And it was kind of obvious it'd see a redesign - Mournhold in Tribunal was designed in such a way as to imply a much larger city while locking you into a small space that they could flesh out with NPCs and quests. But that doesn't really work so well in an MMO because you need players to be able to wander in and out of the city, and preferably flow through the city in a pretty free manner instead of running to the one hole in the wall(s) between quarters.

I can't really think of any city that is so restrictively structured as Mournhold, aside from the IC, which I imagine retained it's shape because it's not an actual city but a combat zone so restricting the flow of movement isn't inconvenient and annoying (like it would be in a capital) but strategic.

tl;dr, the redesign could easily be a logistical one, rather than assuming the devs didn't just look up a map of Mournhold (which is literally the second google images result for "Mournhold")

>>147881247
Addenum: I forgot to mention TES: II, but it should be obvious. They're different because Daggerfall was actually to-scale. But nothing is to-scale these days because game environments are much more high-fidelity instead of miles of randomly generated trees and grass or cloned houses.

It being in a different location is pretty fucking unforgivable though, I'll give you that.

Holy shit the black sacrament daily is so autistic
>Assassin I have challenges for you
Ok.
>Kill the target's pet, Lucky.
Oh.. an animal? Can I use the blade of woe on it?
>No, and you'll get a huge bounty if anyone sees you, leading to my next challenge, don't be seen!
That kinda goes without saying...
>Also, kill the target with poison.
Oh, cool, so do I like poison his mead or something?
>No, you just make sure to have your poison equipped when you use the blade of woe
Well that's not really a challenge... but ok.
>Finally, kill the target before the overseer returns.
When will that be?
>About one minute from when you kill the target.
....ok.... I guess I'll be going now...
aaaand I forgot my poison...

> Yeah I actually feel bad about sorcs.
Well what I can do is put cc that don't trigger cc immunity and streak after people trying to escape from battles so that no one ever gets away from a big fight. Then there's always the suppression field. And the mines. And then the wards upon wards (that no other classes can do as well, just not as efficient as we do).

I feel shoehorned into a troll class and I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing since best case scenarios is serving other people on silver plates hoping someone else are around to finish the job.

no weight to the combat, animations are terrible, archer barely needs to aim whatsoever

boring play with no threat of dying ever in the video, there's no strategy to it, it's just dumbed down WoW combat

what more is there to say?

Is stamina templar viable endgame?

>>147892267
tell us more because we care so much lol

>>147893817
plenty viable. not quite on par with the other 3 classes in terms of stam dps, but you can definitely be pulling 30k+ unbuffed.

With the changes announced recently is this game worth getting into or is it kind of a slowly dying holdover thing for people? Is the greater community shitty? Will it take months of dedicated time to catch up? Can I play a good amount of it solo? I see the general guild is apparently alright but I'm a total fuck newbie to TESO.

All these questions are super fucking dumb but there is only so much lurking can tell me. I'm itching for some multiplayer but I can't bother picking up WOW or FF14 again.

The population seems to be rising due to the influx of people who don't know anything that Dark Brotherhood introduced. A lot of older player returned due to the removal of the veteran ranks.
>Is the greater community shitty?
PvE is chill while everyone is constantly butthurt about something when it comes to PvP
>Will it take months of dedicated time to catch up?
Yep
Can I play a good amount of it solo?
>Yep

The TESOG guilds are decent enough, if you join you can always ask in the chat and people will help you out.

Thanks anon. I see Gold Edition is coming out in September and since the website price is still full priced (Like fuck) and doesn't include the DLC am I right in assuming it's better to just wait the two months?

>>147892267
it's still a step up from Skyrim and... Pretty much every TES game.

I keep getting matching set pieces that are obviously tank-centric.
Heavy armor, sword and shield stuff, so many health buff procs
But, I'm a stamina nightblade

>>147902602
Set pieces are no different from regular trash gear if it's not cp160. If you're leveling it makes no difference and it'll all be obsolete anyway.

If you are cp160, pick your role and what you want to do with it at go have a look here:

http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Sets

>>147902884
so is there a recommended way to go while leveling, especially if I'm going to be doing sub-50 PVP with friends

Werewolf is godly, that is all. Just turn it on and destroy everything.

>>147905957
thx abyssal
i may try though. never been a ww/vamp on any of my toons, might make my upcoming stamdk one.

I haven't been in PvP yet but I'll warn you now that apparently you'll get shrekt due to the increased poison damage and being a werewolf very obviously calling for everyone to break out their fighters' guild skills and dawnbreak your ass.

Fuck if it isn't awesome for soloing in PvE though. Pretty fun in a group too if you have some more werewolves with you.

I'm still sad that none of my skills (especially the HOWLS) buff my group though, even with morphs. The heal morph that gives +10% weapon damage should really apply to your group, or at least to other werewolves in range.

>>147903039
Just use whatever you find, it doesn't really matter.

Looks like it's a PVP weekend. One of those strong sets is the reward

>>147908771
I'm torn because I don't know which weight of armor I want Malubeth's in, light med or heavy.

Also is it possible to drop impenetrable Malubeth's from wayrest anymore?

new player question time

1h and shield nightblades - are they any good in pvp? I was told by some people in game that yes, if you're a "sap tank" whatever that is, but I'd rather trust people who don't put "xD" after literally every sentence

whomever designed vma's round 5 should be fucking lynched. not only is the spawn pattern completely different from the other arenas, it's also the only round that fucks you for good dps with troll spawns and the final boss' ice break. from a flawless conqueror, fuck round 5 to death.

I'll be getting it in both light and med. Maybe heavy too if I can get enough points by the end of the weekend.
I don't know for sure, but recall it being changed to no in the last patch?

I don't mind the spawn pattern but fuck the lock-on ice breaths and the boss with hotboxes as big as an african village.

so litany of blood can only be completed by a character that's done cadwell's bullshit?

I wouldn't say completed, but atleast ran through the zones. OR if you have a good friend, have them go to the wayshrines of the locations of the targets.

It's in Cyrodiil, in one of the homebase areas.

I heard stealing and robbing was a part of the game. Is it common to join a guild, steal everything from the guild bank and then leave?

>>147918592
>Is it common to join a guild, steal everything from the guild bank and then leave?

common in every MMO with a guild bank

not that you'll be able to pull that kind of shit with any guilds that have anything worth stealing in their bank, unless you're prepared to invest a lot of time to climb up the ranks and get access to make withdrawals
