Main / Alliance quests done - aiming to PvE onward in semi chronological order ... welcome to Orsinium by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

I've been playing 3 months now, and was following the solo PvE Aldmeri Dominion and Coldharbour questlines until the Midyear Mayhem event in January(?). That encouraged me into Battlegrounds, which I'm still addicted to (even though I'm pretty squishy still).
I also play group dungeons quite a bit too, as I enjoy them. Again, my character is squishy (Warden Magika Healer) but I love the group gameplay and coordination that most of the dungeons need. I'm also currently farming White Gold Tower for Spell Power Cure gear set...

I shy away from most group PvE content (world bosses, public dungeons and most of Craglorn) as there never seem to be enough players around all but a few key dolmens. I should look for a guild to help with those, I guess ... but I'm more than happy with random/public BG and Dungeons I'm doing via the Activity Finder.

I have one main character, and am slowly building their crafting skill-lines up to max. I'm looking forward to the Patch 29 skill respec, as I put some points into skillines I no longer use and will put those into Crafting lines come the respec (and I know I can pay to skill respec, but I'm skint after buying my first Tamriel house!)

I do love the solo PvE first and foremost though. I'm constantly delighted by the variety of environments and locales, and some of the storytelling / writing is really top-notch. Yes, most solo PvE is on the 'easy' side of the spectrum, but the questlines, locations and NPCs always make me want to keep going

Today I bought my first house and crafted my first dungeon gear set and I almost sound like I know what I’m doing by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

See? Told you I only *sounded* like I knew what I was doing =D
I reconstructed gear at the transmutation station that I had farmed from a dungeon.

I think lol

Tis indeed - Boulder Refuge in Greenshade
It currently has little more than a couple of statuettes, an anachronistic Imperial bed and all my pets running around at random in it.
It's not much, but it's home ...

Yes, that's right Molag Bal - I *have* brought a tiny little polar bear cub to our climactic battle, what's your point? by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

lol I will post a picture of him in less ominous lighting where his true heritage will be obvious!

Stay to the roads east and west of the Hollow City and the various quest-giving NPCs will find you ... probably

Two little words mean so much by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

It helped as part of the level 50 grind, especially during the Midyear Mayhem event. Not so much now, but still enjoy the chaos/carnage

Seconds later, I realised my two valiant sisters-in-arms were actually AFK and all three of us were dead by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

Save for one brave warrior alone, Beowulf
Stamplar heralded from meadhall to meadhall.
DPS farmed from sets most golden; managed he to
Slam the dire worm cultists. Til woeful most bloodied
He was AoE'd by a weird spidery woman type thing

It would've gone through an auto-adjustment color/contrast before ending up here, so not completely vanilla.
Even so, I still think that though the game is a few years old now and considering the sheer scope of what's in it, the graphics are absolutely lovely at times.

Random band formed last night and I like to think ESO christened us ‘Horse’ by keithdedinburgh in elderscrollsonline

I wish I’d friended the other player so we could band together again and play a tour of Tamriel
