As many world bosses, delves, and dungeons as Jerric has explored, he has only once fought alongside a healer. Jerric (stamina Templar) can usually keep a few players on their feet, but just in emergencies. The other day a real healer showed up at Tribune’s Folly. None of the players died, not even once! It was amazing to watch that guy work. What a difference!

The issue with finding a good healer is that nobody wants to do it. It's more difficult and less rewarding than running a DPS or tank character. Healing in general is a bit sub-par in ESO as well, which doesn't help.

A good healer is essential for the tougher content though, so all the best players know that you have to support your supports.

Aninah (my Altmer Templar) is intended to be a healer once she levels. I was having second thoughts, but now I want to learn aaaall the tactics! It was like some god mode got turned on for Jerric. I have seen some good players working together, but I was blown away by that healer.

I'll make you some protective armor and a sword or bow (or axe for Molly) that heals you! I'm almost able to make the "Song of Lamae" set!!! And pretty sure I'll be able to make the "Nightmother's Gaze" set soon after, as I'm almost close on that one, lol.

I kind of was hoping for the some TLC from a leggy Altmer lass, who happens to be a healer... wink.gif

I got a screenshot of a leggy Altmer lass with no pants on in the bank, I'll post it later (don't know if she could heal you or ... er, ... well, you will see what I mean if it shows up in the screens. )


Okay, here she is. Now ... is it just me, or is her butt dirty looking? I mean ... Where has she been sitting, and what did she sit in? Urk.

SubRosa, lol! Aninah is still wearing her cropped top and tight pants, though it is cold and rainy where she is in High Rock. She brings the warmth of the Stros M’Kai sun wherever she goes!

mALX, that lady in the bank has the kind of butt that casts a shadow, maybe that’s what we’re seeing! ohmy.gif

Aninah also had a naked curvy Altmer chick bank encounter. Poor girl felt pretty inadequate standing in the background!

D’aaw, thanks! wub.gif She is such a sweetie, I’m kind of pacing myself with her game. It’s easy to end up rushing around with all of the quests that are available, and I don’t want to miss a second with this girl.



Jerric is also in Stormhaven, and today he met Captain Jerick (a blond Breton) and saved him from some bad dreams. It was so awesome. I took some pictures to commemorate the occasion, hopefully it wasn’t too dark to see anything.

Decided to check out some guild stores today before doing a daily Gold Coast quest (Minotaur style pieces continue to elude Haa-Rei and I) and saw some base race motifs (Bosmer, Khajiit etc) going for 11k each!

I can understand that you want the most money for your items, but...11,000 gold!? A guild trader on the other side of the street had the same base race motifs for 350 gold each. Really hammers home the importance of shopping around.

Yes, I was at two across the street from each other in Bal Foyen - one of them was trying to sell a plain, unimproved and un-enchanted low level weapon with no traits = for 1000!!!!

Sometimes I wonder if a guild is being strict about all members keeping their 30 slots in the guild store full, and players who fall behind don’t really want their items to sell. I’ve seen ridiculous things for sale at 10k+ while searching for motif chapters.

That's a good point. I hadn't considered guild influence, but it really does play a big part in the game's economy.

I think one major problem, on consoles especially, is that lots of people simply don't know how to price items. It's difficult to gauge the market without a global view.

That’s definitely a big problem on the consoles, especially for rare items that you can’t easily find to compare prices. I had an extra Imperial motif book and couldn’t find another one anywhere to see what to charge for it. So I gave it to Jerric. laugh.gif

Also there is a huge amount of outdated information on various player sites. Some things that were once rare are now readily available, but some website might still have prices listed as if it came out in the most recent update.

A guild I was in for about a day was trying to get a price list together for members so they would quit undercutting each other in their own store. laugh.gif

This is so true. When Xivilai style first came out (When was that? Imperial City a year ago?) it was really rare and expensive - similar in price to Dro-M'athra stuff today. Now you can get Xivilai pages for 1k each.

Here's hoping the Minotaur style goes the same way - Haa-Rei almost just had a heart attack when he saw the staff style page for 60k.

The guilds don't care as much about how full your shelves are as they do about how much income you are bringing into the guild. You pay them a percentage of your asking price for an item, so they make money on a listing whether it sells or not; but if you have 30 non-selling items clogging your shelves up for the full 30 day cycle - then they haven't made enough gold from it to support the guild and that person will end up bumped out eventually.

If I have slow items (like poisons, which are NOT selling) = I'll donate 2,000 gold into the Guild bank weekly to make up for my slow sales so I don't get bumped out. That is the lowest most guilds will take to keep a member active. Bigger guilds like "The Auction House" will chuck you out if all you donate to their bank is 2000 per week plus sales - their roster is always full and people waiting in the wings to join them, so the members have to keep up there.

This past week I've only sold 20,000 - really poor week. That puts me on the danger list, so I'll probably pull all those poisons down and put up some ingredients and food to bring up my numbers quick. I've decided from now on to sell all my poisons to the merchants instead of trying to sell them.

laugh.gif He better not ever shop with Misa then, she drops 250,000 in one night buying armors she won't be able to wear till she reaches CH 160! rollinglaugh.gif

By the Hist, that's enough to give him a nosebleed! Since we purchased the Pact style not too long ago and aren't part of any guilds, we only have about 15,000 at the moment. Don't think we've ever had more than 50,000 at once to be honest.

Most of the guilds on the xbox eu server seem to either be super serious trade guilds or spanish/french/german guilds that have few (if any) english speakers. The few casual guilds that we've joined in the past have all died out after people stop playing or the leaders stop bothering to bid on guild merchants.

There are times when I think a global marketplace would really benefit the majority of players.

For a while there I had 5 characters toiling away at writs to support her spending, but then we joined the guilds, lol. She got the bank account down to 7,000 gold a month ago, it is up to about 150,000 now (but she has bought some daggers and two more armors in that time!!!)

I had to stop her from spending 100,000 on a bow about 1.5 weeks ago, she is out of control when she shops, laugh.gif
