Post any tips and tricks you have for those new to or those looking to improve the ESO experience.


One of my tips:

Unless you're super dedicated to the stealth playthrough in RPG's, don't use the nightblade class. It's horrible. May improve with the release of the Dark Brotherhood DLC but I'm unsure.

Ditto all Grits said, especially sinking points into the ability to research more items than one at a time if you are going to get into crafting. When you have everything researched it is easy to reset your stats and get those skill points back to use in some other place.

On the "Stack all items" = it does work. I have been crafting and used some out of a stack of 200 mats; then did some refining and added some and not had them stack properly for some reason. Hitting that has fixed the issue. It only works if there are two stacks of the same item and both are under 200.

So my "gifts" had to always be for new (lowest level) players only; which was fine, because they are usually the ones that need the boost and it is a nice "Welcome" to the game for them.

Several people gave me a nice gift of armor and weapons when I first started, so it is kind of a "Paying it back" for me, and I really enjoy it.

That was one of the things I really enjoy about ESO thus far: the unexpected acts of kindness from other players.

For me paying it forward is helping another solo player take on a boss if I see something going south.

I had a player unexpectedly resurrect Julian out of the blue when I was trying to kill Faolchu in the Glenumbra quest line. Unfortunately I didn't note the player's name (my adrenaline was too high after so many unsuccessful attempts) so I never did thank that player. Julian now carries around filled soul gems so she can do the same.

This is what made me fall in love with this game. Strangers passing by resurrected me till I gathered enough soul gems to keep myself resurrected. Then I started paying it back when out in the wilderness or in dungeons. (I don't resurrect people who get killed in town at all, they are dying for a lark or crime spree).

But people I didn't know from a trade guild I joined sent me armor, weapons, etc. People gave me lockpicks, recipes, motifs, etc. People resurrected me when I died - you can't beat that; can't find that in a single player game - or the hilarious antics on weekends in towns!

Ditto on the hilarious antics!

Geez, I saw some funny stuff going on, and some disturbing things too.

In Daggerfall, the NPC's around Crier Martine keep getting killed. I would arrive in town to find a pile of bodies in the town square.

OTOH, I did see one PC riding his horse in tight circles around another NPC who was reading his scroll (Map? Journal?). Made me think of Jerric and Darnand!
