Gorgeous bow, Buffy! And Awesome to see her in her native grounds!!!! Great Screen of the Month update, Acadian!

[mirocu]

I almost don´t recognize Buffy anymore and yet at the same time she looks more like her old Oblivion self than ever.

Nice pic, in any case

[Acadian]

Mirocu and mALX – Thank you both so much for your kind acceptance of Buffy as she has transitioned to ESO. Taking up a new game for us is only something that occurs once or twice a decade so it is a big deal – appreciate the encouragement.

From early on, this new game felt very ‘right’ and ‘natural’ for her. It really does provide a seemlessly natural blend of bow with magic and a massive dynamic world to explore and adventure in. If feels kind of like a very well-modded TES game with a whole staff of hamsters to keep magic electrons, load orders and other mundane things all running well.

I leave today for another autumn pilgrimage to visit Acadian Sr over on the other side of the US as he heads into his 96th winter. He is an old iron warrior but even iron doesn’t last forever, so I find it important to make these trips while he is still with us. At any rate, I’ll be back Wednesday a week and look forward to catching up on things here.

Have a safe trip and an enjoyable visit with Acadian Sr.! There will be lots of changes when you return, since it seems the One Tamriel update is activating as I type - I can't log into my PC/Mac NA server at all!!

[mALX]

Be safe and healthy, and my best wishes that your Father is and stays safe and healthy too! So nice that you have this time with him, though you will most def be missed!

[Grits]

Safe journey, Acadian! I hope you have a good visit. I am also crossing the country today, from AZ to Hurricane Matthew. I'll wave once I'm in the air, lol. Best wishes to Acadian Sr.

[mirocu]

My best wishes for a safe trip for Acadian Jr and my best wishes in general for Acadian Sr! May both of you live long and prosper


96 is not a bad number. My grandma is still a duckling with her mesely 92,5 years

Buffy and her butterfly! Her armor looks kind of aquatic. Nice shot.

Hey, who's the really short one in the November screen-shot?

[mALX]

Buffy and Lyris in Coldharbour!!! Great shot !!!!

Cute Buffy pic for November


But is she a spear user now? Where is her bow?

[Acadian]

Thanks so much, folks!

Buffy is many things, including adaptable - within limits. She has evolved within ESO into a magical templar healer. Her weapons are spells, staves and aedric javelins of pure light. Most interesting has been the strong return of her healing/nurturing nature - so pronounced in Oblivion but not well-supported in Skyrim. Like a wood elf to water, she has taken to the role of healer in ESO. The first version of Buffy in ESO still exists but primarily as a crafter now.

That is a bow on Buffy's back, lol. I love this place she is standing in, it is inside a huge tree and it is enormous!

[Acadian]

Heh, to be clear - November's screen had a destruction staff in her hand. December's has a bow on her back (older pic).

Here is a brand new fresh shot with Buffy's current look - A healer in Shadowfen.

The earth tones of her outfit are perfect for Buffy. Especially considering where she is!

[mALX]

Oh, her new armor is very suited for the jungly swamp of Shadowfen!

[mirocu]

Another nice pic from Buffy´s adventures!


Doesn´t she want to see some snow now though?

[Acadian]

Aww, thanks so much for the support and kind words.

Oh, for ESO fasionistas, the Shadowfen shot features Buffy in all light armor crafted of spidersilk for a level 40 character. Style is Altmer for the jerkin, shoulders, legs and Imperial for the belt, boots and gloves. Dyed to Buffy's preferences for color of course.

The bow/magic combo never really did feel quite right for Buffy and (as so many games do) tends to push one to using daggers as well. Happily, the healing templar seems to suit Buffy to a tee.

Snow? Plenty of that here. What's missing is not the snow, but the white-haired dear dark elven warlock that Buffy is so very fond of.

What a nice winter picture! Although I dare say, Buffy needs a winter coat


The Dark Elf sends his best, unfortunately he cannot come since he believe he´s still needed in Cyrodiil and the Jeralls. But as we both know, two elves like these ones may be far apart in body, but never in spirit

Haha, awesome screen of Buffy swimming

And she looks ever so beautiful in Shadowfen! That area sure needs more healers.
