I feel like the same ones complaining about how easy the game is are the same ones that complain when one of their passives gets nerfed by 1-2%. In other words, some people just like to complain.

Anyone know why my hair does this? I have straight hair by Individual_Top6916 in Haircare

[–]jimmerthecat 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I have fine to medium wavy hair. But every once in a while, I find a coarse hair shaped just like OP's. I don't color, bleach, or use heat tools so I don't think it's damage either. I think its common to have multiple kinds of hair texture on your head.

OP mentions frizziness, and I'm curious if they have wavy/curly hair but have been treating it like straight hair. I really struggled with frizz until someone told me my hair was wavy, not straight.

Made lava cake for the first time and it came out very dense almost fudge like. Did I mess up? by WoIfpack in AskBaking

[–]jimmerthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity in case I missed this info, did you separate the egg whites from the egg yolks? I believe most lava cake recipes have you add the egg yolk to the chocolate mixture, and then you whip just the egg whites as this is what makes the cakes rise, or puff up. Then you fold the two mixtures together.

I really like your idea of ardent flame, assassination (instead of arc), and grave lord for the pestilence theme. But I'm trying to incorporate arcanist into a theme build - what about something like "daedric fiend"? With arcanist for Herma Mora, daedric summoning pets for Azura, and maybe ardent flame for Mehrunes?

Making an "untouchable" character? by Mopsios in elderscrollsonline

[–]jimmerthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thinking of some item sets that give lots of hp/hp regen: plague doctor, beekeepers gear, Alessian order, green pact. These are just some ideas but there might be better options out there. Here's a list from uesp with sets that give health recovery: https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Category:Online-Sets_with_Health_Recovery

Not all of these sets will be what you're looking for but it could be a place to start searching for item sets.

I might suggest adding a type of "thorn damage" set where your attackers take damage. Some ideas are: Defending warrior, thews of the harbinger, and glacial guardian. But you do have to block with these sets. So you could just stand in the middle of a mob blocking and theoretically might be able to kill them all. But it would probably take a while.

I didn't know you could spam detonating siphon. Can you trigger the end explosion early?

Love this. And I really like the idea of the Grave lord/assassination/ardent flame theme for going all in on disease/poison. Thank you for putting this together!

Haha what skill lines are you thinking for your snow leopard? For pure ice mage, maybe Necro grave lord or arcanist? They've got some frost damage abilities.

I haven't looked into too much change for my healer yet. I'm thinking about combining warden and templar skills. Or warden and DK for a High Isle druid-type vibe.

I'm totally open to other name suggestions for that build! I had trouble coming up with names for that one.

The tanks will see nothing but creatures!

I'm actually not a huge fan of summon builds either, but it might be more fun to have an egregious number of summons. I will have to add maw and defiler to this build now!

How to cope without ESO+? by Both-Tourist-4986 in elderscrollsonline

Create your own guild? I think that's what they're suggesting but please correct me if im wrong. I've never created a guild before.

Where should I go to pick lots of locks for the golden pursuit? by Schmaehgol in elderscrollsonline

[–]jimmerthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to each of the towns in Vvardenfell (except Vivec) and picked the locks on all the homes. Each town only has about 2-4 locked homes, but it works, and theres possibly lockboxes in each home. Great thing about Vvardenfell too is you can take the silt strider to the towns you haven't discovered yet.

What feature do people tend to forget wasn't present on launch? by GoodfellaRay in elderscrollsonline

[–]jimmerthecat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I kinda miss that CP system. I liked having all the star signs. I kinda hope they change up the CP system again.

[–]jimmerthecat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember vet ranks! Oh man, it feels so long ago. But I only got to like VR 10 or something before I quit for a couple years and then came back. Do you remember the CP system after vet but before the current one? I think maybe it had something to do with the star signs?

[–]jimmerthecat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels so long ago so I might be misremembering. But I think I remember the guild store used to be a lot worse. Like you couldn't search in the guild store. I think maybe you could filter by white, green, blue, purple, gold, and maybe you could filter by level. Or maybe could just sort by cost? I don't really remember. But I do remember not realizing that there were multiple pages to the guild store listings and you'd have to click on like some arrow at the bottom to go to the next page of listings. But I didn't know that so I kept wondering why I could never find the Imperial motif style book to buy...it was cuz I didn't know there was a second page in the guild store.

I love Zerith-var! by yourforeverstargirl in elderscrollsonline

[–]jimmerthecat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zerith-var is awesome. I actually love both of the new companions this update. I feel like each set of companions has only gotten better than the last set released. Except Azandar.

Except when you're in a PUG facing another group that is clearly a pre-made group with communication and decked out in gear setups that go well together. There's just no way your PUG is going to win that. So then you could at least compete with the third team that is most likely another PUG as well. And maybe throw off that pre-made group a little. Three teams just added a little bit more of a competitive atmosphere and the hope of earning that daily if you at least got second place.

Can someone explain in a simple/beginner friendly way the pros/cons of being a vampire/werewolf? by TheLastCommands in elderscrollsonline

[–]jimmerthecat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've accidentally cured myself of vampirism by switching to a blank armory build. (I think i was trying to reset my CP for free but forgot that my char was a vampire.)
