re: MMORPG.com: Elder Scrolls Online - MMO of the Year

Game is a nightmare to get running.

ESO does a good job of replicating the Elder Scrolls feel within an MMO framework.

The leveling PVE is the absolute best, but I don't know what the endgame is like.

And my dumbass bought ESO plus thinking it was a one time purchase (like Battlefield Premium) instead of a monthly subscription So now I feel kinda forced to play it. I'm just completely lost and I'm considering making a new character to relearn the basics.

It is a one time purchase. Subscribing just gets you free DLC.

I'll add you I'll be on tonight after I get off shift

I found the hardest trio to kill in the game. Rift, Hunters Camp. 4 of us got slaughtered by the 3, and if you do not take the female kajit out, she heals them and herself over and over, and puts some bubble down and it drains health.

I've fought in toughest dungeons with people and never had this much trouble, i actually had to wait for some level 300+ peeps to come by and finally beat them, and it still wasnt easy.

Also in the rift, people like to farm for exp and items from the giant camp. U beat him down, but have archers draw the mammoth away, and it resets and he comes back, they rinsed and repeated 40 times or more. I quit after the first 10, i wanted the kill on both, but they kept pulling woolly away.

Easy way to level up and get itmes to sell at lower levels is at the Chains. You can kill the daedra(usually big group waiting), and get the chest and nice exp. I already had a level 50 character, so it doesn't help me as much as if i tried it at lower levels.

and a craft bag

I can see how that would seem insignificant, but crafting is very important in ESO. All gear (other than jewelry) can be improved with crafting materials of varying degrees of potency in several crafting professions. So a green-quality item(either crafted or gained as loot) can be upgraded to blue-quality, which upgrades to purple and then to gold or "legendary" quality, which is basically essential if you want to be a competitive player. These materials, combined with all all the enchanting runes, provisioning ingredients, and alchemy reagents add up into the hundreds, and can take up a lot of the limited amount of bank space you have available.

That space will be important as you level, as there is a ton of gear that have powerful 5-piece set bonuses that all do different things, along with traits which have different purposes depending on what you're doing. Certain types of those sets will be best-in-slot for single-target pve encounters while some will be better for aoe situations, and some might belong to the same set but have a trait that is only useful in pvp. As there are up to ten armor, weapon, and jewelry slots that can be equipped at one time, you can imagine that these items can accumulate quickly.

I think the One Tamriel update ramped up the difficulty for the world/area bosses. They wanted to make them so that many need at least one or two people to help take them down.

I logged on and my character was pale white and I was like what the frick is this shite
Then I remembered I'm a vampire.. I remember wanting to become one so bad. But don't remember why.
I'm a level 46
