Last night I got that "Magic Carpet" addon and played around at the Guild Hall = checking out all the stuff on the sides = I was told there was a city behind it on the left; and that the tower on the right could be entered and explored; so I couldn't wait to explore both.

Well, whoever told me that was wrong; the towers on either side are just for looks; there is no way to explore them; no interiors at all - they are squished into a big rock; it doesn't even look like they have a second story interior = and even if there was; there is an invisible wall around them, so whoever told me they explored in there must have done it on the PTS first Summerset/Artaeum patch.

Also; on the left side it isn't a city back in there like I was told; (though it really does look like one from the ground). It is actually just one tower; the exact duplicate of the tower on the right side, and just as smashed into the rocks.

They were just put there for looks; the Dev's just didn't realize the tenacity of the players wanting to know something or find a hidden treasure,

So that was a big disappointment; I really thought I would discover a future DLC town!

The problem with calling for help in ESO is that I always think I can do without it, until I find I can't. Then, of course, nobody is online! I need to plan those kinds of runs with a bit of notice, and collect a group.

I could also call for help in zone chat, if I didn't have that off all the time.

YAY WITCH’S FESTIVAL!!!

I've had to call for help in zone chat many times, lol.







WOO HOO!

Brenna just bought the Exorcised Coven Cottage even though it cost way more gold than we remembered. She really wanted it though so of course Khajiit gave in and let her get it. Honestly, Brenna is so spoiled!

I haven't bought that one yet, but I've seen some excellent decorating jobs there!

Here are the screens of what is REALLY up there:

(and that is the closest you can get to the towers).

I’m working on it now! Stop by and have a look!

Is it just gold, or is there an achievement required first?

I recall when I bought Mathiisen Manor that Taminwe had to do a bunch of Auridon side-quests to qualify. Unna, Blosom or Laurie could have done them, but if Taminwe wanted to live there ... In this case, Spreads has her eye on it, because it's nicely swampy, so she might have some work to do.

Khajiit believes you have to do all the Witch’s Festival stuff to get it. Don’t remember what the achievement is called. It wasn’t hard though.

And that includes collecting 100 plunder skulls and the whole Hollowjack Motif. Lot of grind in there, plus RNG. Spreads now has 12 skulls, 4 of the Hollowjack pages (3 dups from the bank, plus only one found), but she did get two Dremora skulls, so that's a couple of Dremora Motif pages, too. I need to look up where the skulls drop, as we ran out of delves in Stonefalls, and World Bosses could be risky at her level.

Dude go to Hagfen north of Aldcroft in Glenumbra. There is a world boss (three crazy powerful werewolves) and a dolmen within a hundred yards of each other. There is always a big crowd hanging around so just ask some one there to group you up and you can run between those two things collecting skulls with hardly any fuss. Brenna usually just perched on a rock or log and lobs healing spells for the dps guys attacking the bosses.

I think one of the best returns of skulls per time spent may be public dungeons. They vary from about 5-9 bosses depending on which dungeon. Did Bonesnap today for example: 15 minutes = 9 skulls.

Yeah but how would it be for a lower level character?

Why don't we have a fun-run for our younger characters; group them up and send them out through a starter zone like Stonefalls to do the Dolmen/dungeons/and WB's? I've got some characters that could use the achievements; skyshards/etc. It would be fun, and we'd be helping each other!

Ooh, Khajiit would love to get Sorai (21) and Geru (15) involved in something like this!

Okay, well today I took Britta out for her Witches Festival romp! She hasn't been getting out much this year. so it was really nice to get to play her!

What happened = Our (our as in all of us here at Chorrol) friend Bear (you might remember Bear from last year's Saturalia party at Haute's) and his wife Gray invited me to join them to do Witches Festival stuff; and since they mentioned doing a group dungeon I thought it best to bring Britta (the Tank) along = and BOY was I glad that I did!

First we did a delve; then a Dolman, then a WB - and then Bear suggested doing a random normal. They are normally so easy; but the RNG sent us to Fang Lair. Suffice it to say; we started off at around 3 p.m. and finished around 8 p.m. = worn out; but boy was I happy to actually be able to do it! I'd say it was easily the worst dungeon I've ever been in, not exaggerating.

But at the end of the day, I had 5 pieces of Dremora armor; a skill point, some transmute crystals = and Britta got some achievements!

So, all in all = as much as I HATED that dungeon; it was all good in the end!







On my son's game I've got a level 13 Sorc, a level 13 Templar; and a basically useless CP (something low level) Nightblade that is needing the XP to ramp up her CP level. On my game I have a low level (19 or so, but at least she has CP points) DK. I also have some CP level bank mules that can't fight their way out of bed in the morning; (possibly because they are all still in level 2 armor, lol). But grouped with others, they do contribute a bit. (Ask Buffy, she has gone out with all of them through the years to get skyshards so they could craft). (plus they all went out for New Life the last two years).








I'll pop in there tomorrow after my (in-game) chores!

Khajiit set it to his primary home so feel free to pop in whenever. All Chorrolites have visitor privileges. Be warned, the place is a bit grim (we had some crowns left so we bought the witches coven furnishings bundle) and a work in progress! Also, if any of you have any suggestions for really rough or spooky furnishings like very simple beds, tables, chairs, and shelves, or other miscellaneous set dressing type stuff (read: corpses, bones, of tomb stuff) feel free to post them. Spooky donations are also welcome!

Congrats on the successful Fang Lair romp!

Spreads is level 29 right now, so grouping with a bunch of similar levelled characters would be great for her. We were finding that high-level characters were camping the delve bosses, and burning them down before we could get our hits in. Dolmens are set up that way all the time, unless you manage to find one nobody's using, and then it's too much for one player! Why is there never anything in-between?

Well, she did get a reasonably-sized group for the Golden Saint WB in Stonefalls, and got her second Dremora skull from that. Only died a few times, when she couldn't dodge in time.

I assume the optimum group size is four so we can do the group instances.

And I'd like to take a look at Khajiit's house, too. Especially if some of the current random furnishing drops are on show. Spreads has a few, but we haven't previewed them yet.

(Thank you for the congrats!!!)

But...OMG, does that mean you have the giant crow target dummy? GAAAAAH! I want that thing!!!!

On that bed = several people I know have a real coffin with a separate lid so they can actually lay in it using the /sleep or /sleep2 (which is better for coffin sleeping).

Here is the page on the wood coffin that you can craft:

https://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Coffin,+Case


(the lid is separate, but also craftable) = I'll check to see if I can make either one; but I don't think I've seen them when I've searched through my lists. I'm pretty sure I can make stocks though; if you need them, lol. Here is the wood lid:


https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/wp-content/uplo...fin-Lid-2-1.jpg


And here is the page on it:


https://eso.mmo-fashion.com/coffin-lid/



Because they are craftable; you can probably find them for sale at Guild Traders; especially at this time of year.



Then there is the stone one that sells at the Achievement vendors for Master Vampires only:

(its lid is also sold separately, but is also an achievement) = Lid:
