What to do with the upcoming ESO+ trial: A Quick Guide For the Curious

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 10:14 AM PST

Starting this Tuesday, the 9th, players on all platforms will get a free trial of ESO+, which includes access to all the DLC, the craft bag, costume dyeing, etc etc. If you're new to the game or don't have experience with the DLCs, you might be wondering how to maximize the free stuff, especially if your playtime is limited. Here's a little guide; please feel free to add more tips in the comments.

  1. Free Pet! Entering the city of Orsinium inside the Wrothgar zone earns you a free pet. Get to Wrothgar by talking to the caravaneer inside Vukhel Guard, Wayrest, or Stonefall. Then just follow the path northish to the city. You can even ignore the zone's first quest. The whole shebang will take ~3 minutes.

  2. Free Pet! Entering Hew's Bane earns you a free pet. Get to Hew's Bane by either 'porting there directly, or by talking to an NPC who will be waiting for you inside the Outlaw's Refuge inside Vukhel Guard, Wayrest, or Stonefall. ~2 minutes.

  3. Blade Of Woe! You earn this nifty ability by joining the Dark Brotherhood. Join the Dark Brotherhood by talking to an NPC who will be waiting for you in the Outlaw's Refuge of Vukhel Guard, Wayrest, or Stonefall and follow their quest. Expect to spend ~20 minutes on this. The Blade of Woe is a must-have for most players. Normally, killing a passive NPC is a crime with a guaranteed witness (the victim), but if you use the Blade of Woe, you can get away scot-free. This is a useful way to get at the contents of their pockets. Furthermore, when solo adventuring, the Blade can insta-kill unaware humanoid enemies, which can occasionally speed up your questing.

  4. Skyshards! The Orsinium, Thieve's Guild, Dark Brotherhood, and Clockwork City DLC zones each contain Skyshards. Wrothgar, as the largest zone, contains the most, but some of them are inside delves, and one is inside a public dungeon. Every character can benefit from more skill points, so pony up and zip through the zones. It's tough to gauge how much time you'll spend here. ~2.5 hours for everything, if you're efficient.

  5. Transmutation! With Transmutation Stones (you'll need at least 50, earned from a variety of activities) you can give a piece of equipment you own any other trait you have researched. Transmutation stations are available inside the Clockwork City DLC. Get to the Clockwork City by meeting an NPC inside the Mournhold City Center. Once inside the city, check the map and head to the swirly icon. New characters and new players can safely skip this. Don't waste Stones on gear that you will outlevel. Getting there will take ~5 minutes.

  6. Crafting Bag! Just open your inventory and check the bottom of your screen for the prompt to move crafting mats to the Crafting Bag. Once the event is over, you'll be able to pull mats out (but not put mats in), so it's totally safe to do this. This is a great way to clear up some bag/bank space temporarily. Crafting Bag is the best part of ESO+; no one should skip this. ~1 mintue.

  7. Spell Power Cure armor set! This one is super easy; just go to the Group tab of the menu and queue for the White-Gold Tower dungeon. Complete the dungeon, looting as you go. SPC is heavily favored in the meta right now and probably won't fall out of favor soon, so it may be worth running this dungeon for the loot even if you're not using any magicka avatars currently. ~30-45 minutes per run, if your group is competent and your luck is good.

  8. Skill Points from Dungeons! There are 6 DLC Group Dungeons, and the quest involved with each grants a skill point. They are the Imperial City Prison, White-Gold Tower, Cradle of Shadcows, Ruins of Mazzatun, Bloodroot Forge, and Falkreath Hold. Just queue for them in the Group tab of the menu and do the quest as you go. ~30-45 minutes per run, if your group is competent and your luck is good.

  9. Orc Food! Complete the quests given to you by Orzorga in the Wrothgar zone for recipes that scale with your level without caps. Talk to the caravaneer inside Vukhel Guard, Wayrest, or Stonefall to get to Wrothgar, then travel northish along the road to get to Orsinium. You don't have to do the zone's first quest. Once in Orsinium, exit the city going north, find the Shatul wayshrine, and go north some more. If you're lost, the map marker for Morkuldin Forge is just a little left of the entrance to Orzorga's kitchen. Do the quests to get the recipes, four quests in all. Be warned that these recipes are not good for leveling your Provisioning. ~10-15 minutes per quest.

Edit: Here's some extra!

  1. Dyeing! Get to a dyeing station and color all your favorite costumes with all your favorite colors. Coloring persists after the trial ends, so this is safe to invest some time into. ~30 seconds or 30 hours, depending on your personality.

  2. Steampunk Food! The Clockwork City DLC has 3 recipes associated with it that, like the Orc Food, scales to your level with no cap. Also like Orc Food, the quest giver is the same for all three quests, making this a fairly quick score. Once you're in the Clockwork City zone, head to the Brass Fortress, check the map, head to the Outlaw's Refuge there, and talk to the NPC named Brengolin. ~10-15 minutes per quest

Short video on skipping dungeon doors

Why is THIS a "Forsaken" Hamlet? I'd definitely put a nice little get-away cabin here. (x-post r/esoporn )

This is the first time I had ever seen this guard not floating in mid air (he's floating now)

PSA: If you have troubles to loot dead enemies, swap weapon and try again.

Posted: 07 Jan 2018 03:31 AM PST

As far as I know it is a known bug by ZoS, but the first-aid to this is less known by the players.

[Discussion] Getting the most out of the leveling experience? (New player)

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 08:05 PM PST

I bought the game at release and for whatever reason was turned off by the gameplay at the time. I've got the itch to play the game and want to get the most out of the experience of leveling up.

What race/class/build would you recommend for a solo player that is very fun and visceral? How could I find groups for questing if I wanted to do so? What zones would you suggest somebody visit?

I didn't realize that Tuesday starts an ESO+ week for free so this is just a good happenstance - I'll check those threads for suggestions there as well.

Thanks!

[Discussion] Is it wrong to use sorc pets on dungeons and trials?

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 09:23 PM PST

I'd like to play as a sorcerer (Pve only) and I've seen that you can have more damage with pets, but some people say that they are bad for dungeons and trials because of aggro and enemy placement. So using a pet is not viable at all?

Wanting to start either a Stam NB or Stam DK, as DPS. What are the pro's and con's to both?

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 03:16 PM PST

Ultimately, I want to maximize my DPS potential - as we all do, I'm sure. I know both of these classes have excellent DPS potential, however I'm really wanting to consider the pro's and con's before deciding. Thanks

I just found out you can dye your armor at Level 45.

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 06:51 PM PST

I didn't even realize you could dye your armor, (thought dying was for ESO Plus members) until just now in Rivenspire.

Such a great surprise! Just gotta unlock some more colors so I got more options. Guess I found my new hobby once I finish off quests and such.

I mainly pvp and do small group stuff. Raiding is usually full of inept people with rage issues I find.

Need help with my MagDK rotation

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 07:34 PM PST

I'm at endgame and am currently running a Grothdarr + BSW setup and trying to grind out the rest of the slots with Infallible (War Maiden is what I have atm). My main problem is that I'm struggling to stay alive (I can't even grind a Craglorn boss without eating it in seconds). My secondary problem is resource issues (even with the Mage mundus I constantly have to pop potions). I'm at max CP and have enough skillpoints to pretty much almost any ability. Any suggestion would be helpful.

What’s the advantage to different armors?

Posted: 06 Jan 2018 12:41 PM PST

I am fairly new to the game only having played about ~1 day in game time. Right now my current build is a Magicka DK utilizing Two-Handed greatswords. I am currently wearing 2 pieces of Light and Medium Armor and 3 of Heavy. I plan to wear heavy armor but I am confused as to why I should go Light. Is there an advantage?

Ice staff

Posted: 07 Jan 2018 02:14 AM PST

Hey zos why don't you consider taking taunt off ice staffs? Nobody uses them ( except newbies who don't realise the heavy attack is a taunt) and it seems like a waste of a potentially cool destruction staff.

Searching for items in guild stores

Posted: 07 Jan 2018 01:07 AM PST

Apologies if this is a daft question, but is there a way to search for a specific item in guild stores? I'm looking for a Ring of the Undaunted Bastion, but all I can seem to do is narrow the filters down to "rings" and then scroll through hundreds of rings for sale in each store hoping to come across the one I need. Is there no text based search?

(Also if anyone reading this is on PC NA and has an undaunted bastion ring they want to sell, let me know! I've run Elden Hollow so many times now I'm thoroughly fed up with it and still no ring to be found...)

Got two noob questions here

Posted: 07 Jan 2018 12:34 AM PST

Hi, super noob here and I'm wondering about two things.

  1. How good is a bow only build

  2. Do your character have to decide to focus on PvP or PvE builds or there's a hybrid of both.

Sorry for my noobness, I just don't want to spent 50 hours of playtime and realise my character suck and repeat building again. (Obviously didn't spent much time in the game)
