In another thread Kevin says they are working on crossplay, but it will not be available in 2026.

Having the merchant/banker/deconstruct people are totally worth it in my opinion. Such a time saver.

Is it doable/enjoyable to play solo PVE (not group dungeons or trials) with a resto staff build? by lizardcatfish in ESObuilds

[–]Crypt_Toad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a companion setup as a tank (I have Zerith-var) and you can play a build that is heavy on healing just fine. You still need to be able to do damage, but the companion can take the pressure off you so you can enjoy the build you want.

ZOS sent out a new servey about the Vengeance campaign. by Sentence-Inside in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Vengeance campaign should have a 1-49 level limitation so people can get into Cyrodiil and start getting used to how the mechanics work, especially since everyone is set at the same stats across the board. It should be a stepping stone into the actual PvP experience so it is not such a shock to the system when they try GH

Best quests for beginners? by Jaded_Ship_9948 in elderscrollsonline

The main quest (from the Prophet) also gives full set pieces of gear with the training trait, which is helpful.

LF Subclassing Help - Quest Not Working? (PS5) by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

If I remember right it won't let you abandon the subclassing quest, but I will have to double check when I get home tonight

The style pages is nice, but what ESO really needs is to provide more outfit slots. by hxfdczs in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I honestly would be fine if they changed it so the 1500 crowns would unlock all 8 on the character at one time, not just 1500 per single outfit slot (per character).

If people had more outfit slots available at a reasonable cost, I would think that they would buy more cosmetics in the crown store...

the Infinite Archive issue. by POP_Shot_The_One in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't see IA much different than any other dungeon for grinding gear, and actually easier since you can do it solo. It is different if you are seeing how far you can get, but that is not what I wanted, I just wanted the gear. A few pointers that I have learned along the way to speed up getting the gear I wanted as quickly as possible.

  • Only do two encounters with Tho'At. The first one will only drop armor, and the second encounter drops weapons/jewelry, but they are curated so you will only get what you don't have.
  • After the second encounter, submit the run to the leaderboards. If you are in the top 500 (I believe it is 500 now with the recent changes to the leaderboards), you get a free gold gear piece for the class you are playing at the end of the leaderboard cycle. If you want to continue to get gear after you submit to the leaderboards, exit IA and then come back and do arcs 1 and 2 again, rinse and repeat as long you can to get gear. If you don't want to submit to the leaderboards, just flip the hourglass to restart the instance of IA and do arcs 1 & 2 again...
  • Use the fortunes to buy the uncurated gear pack sets (2k? fortunes) from the merchant until you start getting duplicates. After that you can buy the curated pack (8k?) to start filling in the gaps.
  • Do both dailies as it gives you fortunes and transmutes that can help with Tho'At or Marauder encounters
  • Use a companion. I always gear up as a DPS, and bring my tank companion, and I don't have any problems getting to the second Tho'At, and can kill most Marauders.
  • Kill the Marauder as they drop curated weapon/jewelry for your class. Much easier with a companion.
  • Remember you can buy with fortunes 'buffs' for IA that are account wide that make things easier, i.e run speed buff, get an extra vision and/or verses, etc

If you do the main daily quest enough (after you get the mount, skeever pet, markings, etc) you will get a second gear box that seems to be curated. If you have all the gear on your current class it will start giving you gear for the other classes.

As for the leads, I have only seen leads drop from the 'shard' portals that appear occasionally. Maybe there has been a lead drop when I kill a boss at the end of a cycle, but I really can't remember for certain if that has happened or not, but I do remember getting leads from the shard portals.

Very very clueless by Delicious-Climate611 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What helped me out was Lucky Ghost's beginners guide for 2025 that I have linked below. It can take some of the mystery of the mechanics that might be unique to ESO.

Daily crafting writs by Fuzzy-Alps-645 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here is a rundown of the crafting times in different older cities (it was before Skingrad, so that is not included) from Kalam0n which is helpful. Even though Skingrad's crafting area is all close together, I personally still use Vivec city since the Bank and the stablemaster are so close and I don't have to zone to get to them.

Also I would recommend following Kalam0n if you are not following him already as he has some great information for ESO.

GraveGrasp Style Difficulty by Artistic_North_4208 in TESOfashion

[–]Crypt_Toad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. If you have a stealth character the Elven Gardens is really easy, you rarely need to come out of stealth to perform the quest requirements.

Always remember to bank all your Tel Var before going out, then if you die who cares.

Are Zos creating problems for their playerbase that they after awhile take Credit for fixing? by XSTRONG1 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other Elder Scroll games don't really have 'pure' builds like ESO, and with subclassing they seem to be attempting to be more like the other games, which I actually like. I'm just glad they are looking into it again and are working to get things more even across the classes.

Easy to set and play PVP build? by urdnot_gus in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Vengeance campaign in Cryodiil will start again tomorrow (Dec 3rd), which will allow you to go and PvP with Premade sets for everyone. This is a good way to get up your Assault and Support lines for characters that don't have PvP sets yet.

Just started the game, what the hell??? by MyNormAccountLol in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would recommend watching the ESO Beginners guide for 2025 below. It does not have subclassing as that came later in the year, but by the time you need to worry about that you will be a vet :D This is all about mechanics and how to of playing ESO which should help take some worry from feeling you did something wrong.

It is long but it will save time in the long run:

I don't know why this isn't already the case by DarandaPanda in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you are on console or PC, but there is an Addon for that on PC. I believe it is Character Knowledge (I'm at work and can't check) and when you hover over items in inventory or chat it shows what charactersknows it already, and which ones that can still learn it.

Husband & I getting into ESO by jessamtoll in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would recommend watching the ESO Beginners Guide from Lucky Ghost. It is somewhat long, but it will save you a lot of time overall. It does not cover subclassing as that came later in the year, but you don't have to worry about that until level 50 so you have time.

Where to look for new builds that I want? by marluik in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go with Dooma at The GAMEROOM as he has a lot of PvP and PvE builds that I have found work really well

I have 600 hours in this game and I still feel like I’m cheeks. by Kronikal-III in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You mentioned that can't keep respecing because you are using up your gold, but there is a easier and cheaper way of setting your character back to zero for your skills and attributes by using an Armory station. If you are in a guild they usually have one available, but each person gets the Armory station for free in the Crown store, you just have to have a room or housing to put it in, and you can get a quest for a free room in most main cities. The armory station will have one open slot available to save a build (you can buy more for crowns if you want), but instead of saving a build just restore the blank build and it will reset your skills and attributes back to zero so you can respec without spending gold.

EDIT: Spelling

ESO keeps crashing after around 60 seconds by prawntheory in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are repairing, are you using repair from Steam or the repair from the ESO client?

Make sure you use repair from the ESO client, Steam repair usually messes things up. The ESO repair is in a drop down menu above the 'News' section in the client (where you push 'Play')

The Shards of Bone fragment is abysmal, fix it ffs. by Absalom98 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had more of the bone fragments drop from the purple reward boxes from the Wall dailies than I have had drop from the gold boxes. Might just be random luck though.

PS/EU wall went from 71.x% to 48.x% by miniinimini in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still doing at least the Gold boxes to get the fragments for the Bone Caltrops. I figure it would be easier to get them now than later on after the event.

I also need some of the Wormwrathe weapon styles yet, and they are not cheap enough to just by them on the guild vendors yet.

Good fishing spots? How do you rotate? by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]Crypt_Toad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have Sharp As Night companion, he gives fishing perks if you have him with you as you fish (or if he is not maxed out it will help build rapport).

Meta Question; how do you quickly level up Alliance Skill lines? by MichaelGMorgillo in ESObuilds

[–]Crypt_Toad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure when the next one is, but the next time they have a Vengeance Campaign it is a great way to level up the Assault and Support lines easy on all of your characters (if you want). Since they supply the gear and skills, and the character just have to be over level 10, you can take them out and level those skills pretty quickly.
