Man thats a lot of cp.

Im at like 240, with two toons at lvl 50. Not sure how to get to 660 anytime soon aside from dedicated Anchor farming? I know youve played a while tho.

And i just need to finish reapers march for Cadwell's silver. Just so happened i did most of aldmeri dominion without knowing about Cadwell's.

Yeah, i recommend cyrodil for easy ap. Imperial Sewers seems a bit more small scale / gank related so i wouldn't recommend going there unless really geared. Other players can steal your tel var stones (currency)

I have a DK, Mage and now a Warden all gaining cp. I have all of aldmeri left on Caldwell. I've almost gotten every crafting trait and skill learned between the 3 characters, with each mastering 2 disciplines each. I farm Craglorn when needing more crafting gear. Wrothgar has good areas too. I bet Cyrodil is really good

I ventured into the Imperial City and its Sewers to farm Tel Var stones and amazingly, only got ganked once. But I ventured into the ebonheart pact district accidently and really deserved it.

I died more to PVE mobs than anything.

this place is huge.

Seems this is the only place to get the Tri-Stat enchantment rune (Haikeko I think) and the Daedric Polymorph (Xivyn Runebox)

tons of bosses and elites in this area. even got some Daggerfall Covernant Motif drops.

OH shite LOL.



1500 TV stones netted me the Xivkyn Dreadguard Polymorph. I'm so lucky

That was my first container opened too. The runebox that retails for 250k tv stones is currently 450k gold on TTC

Had to take the day off yesterday to wait for the AC guy. Was able to finish off Cadwell's Gold then delved into Cyrodiil a bit. Initially I stayed out of the Imperial City and stayed deep in AD territory. I had just gotten a Skill Point from a Skyshard and was in my menu assigning it when some dude from Covenant didn't just run up and kill me, he ran through me because he one-shotted me.

Later I saw that an AD outpost was under attack so I figured I might as well see how I fare when paying attention. As I ported in I noticed another AD player ahead of me heading to the outpost as well. We snuck down the side of a cliff and saw the half-dozen or so EP players attacking the flag defenders. The other AD player went off to confront some lone EP player at the side while I decided to help out the NPCs. As I was running toward them (just came out of Sneak so running, not mounted) I was passed by a swarm of AD players that came from nowhere. I felt like Jon Snow at the beginning of the Battle of the Bastards!



We proceeded to kill the shite out of the opposing forces.

I like the repeatable quests there, definitely going to spend more time doing those!

I'm still confused on the whole resource gathering thing for outposts.

I went into the Imperial City to farm more keys (which are dropping like rain) and get Skyshards. AD (my alliance) was getting destroyed while DC and EP battled back and forth. One of the many ganks I received was from someone at max CP who just stood there as I continually did little damage.

It was... humbling.

Hoping I get enough free time this weekend to learn from some of the guild PVP'rs.

Resource nodes around keeps make them more fortified. For instance the LM makes doors have more hp.

If you take the LM first before sieging, it becomes easier. Also resource nodes count as 2 points for the overall alliance score, when an eval is done.

Basically they are easy ways to get 1.5k AP (capping them)

Ic is a mess thanks to this event. Usually no one is there. Now theres 10v10v10 battles everywhere.

Yes ive gotten 1 shot too by 660 CP dragonknight Generals or Bombblades running Vicious Death set. Gotta avoid them.

Glad you enjoyed. Stick around to get vigor/caltrops/charging maneuver/purge . IMPEN gear and health enchants help.

For 5k TV stones you can get a rune which lets you create tri-stat enchantments. Pretty valuable.

I'm going to finally venture in with my DK later tonight. I'm finally in the 600s in CP, so I figured I'd check it out since my DK has max skills. It'll give me a good feel before taking in my Warden once it gets a few more skills.
Where is the best place to start? I'd like to explore a bit

You can just ride a horse out from your alliances home keep (two of them) and hunt for quests, skyshards, delves. Will be some villages nearby with daily quests. Past the "gate"

If you want pvp,use the transius stone and go to the furthest keep you can near enemy territory. Then find the battle on your map (marked with crossed swords) and link up with the main group. They will either be sieging, defending an enemy siege, or skirmishing near a fortress

Finally got enough keys to open a couple of Trophy chests. Meh.

Helped take back a village and a Keep. Went with a good half-dozen folks to take back another village and ran into some resistance.

We had taken the resources and had just started on the flag area in the center of the village when about 20 EP people descended on us like a horde of angry gods.

I'm liking the repeatable quests in Cyrodiil, but some of them are missing location markers and the distance from villages to transitus stones can be considerable.

next Chapter/expansion is going to be in the Summerset isles (high elf land, the big island next to Auridon)

I got the scamp pet from farming Molag Bal during the Imperial City event

Clockwork City DLC coming soon.
free crown crates 9/22 - 9/24 for logging in and killing a monster

new crown crate season begins soon, lot of AWESOME mounts and outfits and cosmetic stuff, if you are into that

Thanks for the update. I finally realized the fastest way to max enchanting is to craft with one character and extract with another. It allowed me to max out in about an hour for both characters. I've been crafting 8 and 9 trait sets in DLC realms, combining them with monster sets or the max fighters guild set, make you darn near invincible in PVE and a beast in PVP.

Also if you don't have any, get some Maelstrom arena weapons. The drops there can get crazy

After completing caldwell's gold, i decided to go back to Wrothgar. Its such a great zone. MArena will be completed soon!

Yeah enchanting was quite the grind. Apparently Infused + Poison enchant is the best dps nowadays. And then a 1h axe for the bleed

Which elder scrolls online should I buy? Or are they both the same?

I may be wrong, but what I believe is:

"Morrowind" gets you the base game + Morrowind expansion pack

"eso gold" gets you the base game + 4 DLCs. no morrowind (not a big loss tbh)

"Morrowind" + ESO+ (subscription) gets you the base game + morrowind xpac + DLCs + unlimited crafting mats bag and a few crowns a month.. aka "everything"
