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.

I have actually seen PC's killing NPC's from time to time. I'm so new to this still that I'm not sure if this is a new fad or if it's something that has always happened.

Sometimes they are sneak attacks. A PC will sneak up on some nondescript NPC and kill her with an ambush attack. Other times it's a wizard type PC throwing lethal magic around and killing guards and civilians indiscriminately. I suspect those are the bodies you are seeing, mALX - you described the arrangement of bodies typical of a shock wave or blast wave type of event.

Okay, my next question. Both here and elsewhere I keep seeing references to "daily quests." Just what are those? Both Julian and Mazul need to level up before they can tackle the next quests in their stories. Mazul needs to learn how to make enchanted gear so she can forge up a set of heavy armor that will absorb magicka for her. She keeps getting killed by magicians.

Getting the style books to Mazul has helped tremendously. She was able to use up a lot of the style material that has been clogging the bank.

Not a good idea; because when they level up, so will the enemy. If you are having trouble doing a quest, you need to build up your strength, not your levels. Good armor sets and spend some skill points in making your character stronger (find some sky shards and spend your points in your passives to toughen up your character). You should find one or two good defensive spells early on, then spend time building your passives up - they strengthen the character early on while the enemies are still lower level.

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!

That sounds like something Jerric would do to amuse himself while Darnand is distracted!

**Oh, and I've seen players slaughtering livestock, too. I guess everyone has their own kind of fun!

My friend Aussie that I have played with this past year does that to me all the time, even on foot she runs figure 8's around Misa,

On the slaughtering livestock = that is an achievement, lol. There was an achievement like that on Betty Netches too that I refused to take part in, but now that they have put rawhide & grease in the netches ... well, I have started hunting them for their hides and grease, lol. (so finally did get that achievement)

Only if she's in DLC zones. Enemy levels stay the same in normal zones (until One Tamriel arrives) so over-levelling still works.




As for the Fighters Guild daily quests - They're in Cyrodiil and give rewards of gold and exp (normal xp and guild xp). Levelling your Fighters Guild skill is easy peasy - you just have to kill Daedra and undead.

I wonder if it is worth the skill point, how much guild XP you will get as compared to just taking down Daedra in the Dolmans - because Misa and Calia both hit the Dolmans pretty hard; and Misa has every one for Ebonheart Pact and Cyrodiil and several numerous times - has completed the FG questline; plus uses the crossbow on both hot bars. Her Fighters Guild level seems stuck on 9.
