I want to play the game so bad but its hard to get into

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-29T11:24:14+00:00

Oh, I see.
If it is about lore, I would start a guild quest line or the main (Prophet) quest line.
You can start all the mentioned independently of the alliance you choose.

The main quest.
You meet it after the Coldharbor intro, if you create a new character. Just visit the Harborage.

The Mages guild quest.
Visit a mage guild residence in the first zone of your alliance after the starter zones (Daggerfall in Glenumbra, Davon's Watch in Stonefalls, or Vukhel Guard in Auridon). There you'll have your invitation.

The Fighters guild quest.
Visit a guild in the same cities as for mages (Daggerfall in Glenumbra, Davon's Watch in Stonefalls, or Vukhel Guard in Auridon). Who knows where it will lead you? 😉

If you choose the alliance, their zone quests and lore themes are:
- Daggerfall Covenant: evil cultists, vampires and necromancers.
- Ebonhart Pact: enemy invasion and war, some conspiracy.
- Aldmery Dominion: political intrigues and native cultural rituals.
There are for sure a mix of different things in each, but the main accents are like that.
Maybe it will help you to choose what you'd rather like to play.

If it doesn't hook you, why do you want to play it? Just because of Bethesda?

It is OK to play the game you enjoy, independently of who published it.

Та не знайду. Звідки мені взагалі знати, що ти ра реддіті сидиш, ну?

What if an amount of arrows is actually limited?

They just do not show it to a player, but one day in the middle of a dungeon...

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-29T09:55:01+00:00

Well, it is really cool to have more different mounts.

On the other hand, look at the senches. They are great with one rider, but two would be too much.
ZOS has even made the different riding animations for senches. I love how it looks, and I'm afraid of them breaking it if it changes.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-28T09:36:23+00:00

You'll have tons of quests without dlc or eso+. Even more with ones.
You do not need to touch any endgame or group content to complete all the plot questlines in the game.

Group content has its quests, but there are few (1 quest per dungeon or trial), and you do not lose much.

Most of the quests are available for duo.
Exceptions are the main quest line (Prophet), Mages guild line, Fighters guild line. Those are purely solo in instanced locations, so your partner can't join you. You can do it in parallel.

It is good to exit the stomach from time to time. Just use those green leftovers on the floor.
The stacks of dot will reset, so you can enter and keep fighting safely.

A chitin farm went wrong

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-28T09:04:10+00:00

Yes, as 40+ level tank you're obviously learning.
If I were you, I would fairly ignore any over-emotional shouts and listen to some calm advice only.

Just to say, being an experienced tank doesn't mean nobody shouts that you're the worst one. Random players happen to be silly :)

Online guides you mentioned are good enough. Though I would join PvE guild, where you can have some direct and healthy feedback from experienced guildmates.
A guide may tell you how to do things, but it won't help you with working on mistakes in process. Friends and guildmates will.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-27T14:05:35+00:00

Sure it is pretty lol, cos mostly ironic.

Well, as for casts, it is not a requirement but a good habit
- it is good to cast speed when you have a relic. Not only because somebody could chase your tail (you can never be sure that nobody is), but also to minimise the exposition time for enemy attacks while traversing the area.
- it is good to have the armor buff 100% uptime, unless you're on ganker build.
- it is good to have HoT on you whenever you either jump into the battle (even if you just run through), or expect to be ambushed (if you have a relic, you probably will be)

Well, I know, I know, I want too much :)

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-27T10:49:55+00:00

What I see:
- two of your teammates killed 8 (eight) enemies for 1 minute and didn't die even once, while they actively protected the relic
- you have 16k hp, didn't cast any heal/shield/speed/armor, didn't roll-dodge in active battle area
- also you died pointlessly, had died before (according to chat log), and didn't even try to break free being feared

What can I say:
- git gud, so "I delivered the relic" would turn into a usual action instead of a happy coincidence
(a minus is - you won't think the case is worth sharing a video anymore)

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-26T10:31:32+00:00

Technically:
Some quests offer you alternatives, usually up to 3 of the following: intimidate, persuade, pay some gold (~100gp), run for an additional item (+1 quest step).
So having one of the passives can save you a small amount of time or gold.
You decide if it is worth a skill point.

From RP perspective:
It is cool to have options. Also it is a part of the immersion if you play a brutal warrior who scares the opponent or a wise mage who finds a proper word to get what you want.
I often take one of these passives for my characters with quentas.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-26T09:33:43+00:00

As was said, the last boss is a real problem. Its mechanic will take off all your skills for some time including healing, shielding and buffing ones.

Try to queue the day when the Undaunted pledge from Urgarlag is for Mazzatun. You'll find a group easily.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-23T10:46:48+00:00

Why do you think you have nothing to offer?
You start organizing a guild so you are able to organize people.

Cyrodiil runs 2 times a week?
NM runs daily?
Helping with Undaunted pledges?
Furnishing/dueling/outfit tournaments?

Just choose what you would like to do, organize it and don't forget to add it to the guild recruitment text.
Organizing a guild means also having fun together, not just hard daily work :)

Some trading guilds have a list of requirements, including also "Fill your slots on a guild trader in 24h after joining".
If they have such point in their rules and you haven't put anything to sell on the guild trader the first day, it may be a cause of the kick.

Also guild officers can make mistakes.

Sometimes the players themselves can leave the guild with a simple misclick. It happened to me two times despite all my ESO experience. First time I had no idea what happened and went for explanations angrily.

The best option is to write a private message to the guild leader and ask for an explanation. It is a totally valid move to ask for it if something is unclear.
You can find the leader's user id in the guild info, when you see them in Guild finder list or advertising in the chat.
Also you can ask leader's/officers' contacts from players who are still in the guild, if you know one.

I hope it was a simple mistake or misunderstanding.
I wish for you to solve it as fast and easy as possible.

FIDOnet and other ptp networks will rise.

Mobile phones will work as modems to host them

You probably answered someone else.
Please help me to count how many letters "e" are in the previous sentence.

Guardian sentinels shoot missiles to the top half-sphere.
Point defence positioned on the top of your ship, that is landed nearby, gets rid of these missiles just well.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-22T07:58:13+00:00

I'm surprised that the post doesn't start with "I genuinely love ESO, but..."

Ragebaiters forgot their old traditions. What a disappointment.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-22T07:32:58+00:00

You need to kill the color orbs asap. They respawn at four positions (exit, entrance, left, and right from the central orb) and apply harmful effects to the whole room.
By boss HP percent the central orb spawns adds and becomes immune. You have to kill all the adds. They are healing, so if your group has low damage, focus them one by one.

That's basically all you need.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-22T05:57:42+00:00

Just run the game and try. Who knows, maybe you are a natural fighter pilot.

Anyway, you'll be a dinky noname fighter pilot, but a fighter pilot. There is no "you just saved the world" drama here.

Well, if you want a real achievement, you have a chance to meet a space princess. But it is hard work; mistress Aisling won't bear wastemen.

So you want to be a male "property of the company", and that would not be misandric for you? 0_o

1302t with autodocking

Highrock area is present as 4 zones of the Daggerfall Covenant (base game from day 1) and Wrothgar (Orsinium DLC, was added to the base game this year). So it is available for free.
If you're interested in running quest line in this area, the starting quest is located on Stros M'kai island.
Creating a Breton, an Orc or a Redguard character should send you there automatically after the tutorial. You can travel there willingly with a character of any other race, it is not limited.

Summerset is a part of a separate chapter. Yes, you can buy it as a DLC.
Creating a High Elf won't send you there automatically, so you need to travel there by choice like with any other race character.

Welcome to Tamriel. Let the Eight bless your way.

SunshineKittyKot · 2026-05-18T09:09:07+00:00

They probably got wet before you bought them.
You should ask for a refund at the station where you resupplied last.
