Addon recommendations for a newbie?

[Farlitox]

Hi everyone! I just bought the game and even if I played it a bit before in PS4, I read that there are some addons that can enhance the PC experience.

Any tips for useful addons (at least the critical ones, nothing too complicated)
For example I read about one that includes a minimap and another one for skyshard locations..

Any help would be appreciated :)

Number one. Download minion. It will help you install and find addons automatically.

You definitely need a lorebook finder, and I have no sense of direction so a mini map is essential for me. Most people would recommend a skyshard hunter.

If you're into crafting get Dolgubon's Lazy Writ Crafter. Saves you a heap of time.

Also the obligatory Youtube video link below:

all of them

[siransan]

- FancyActionBar: Shows a timer for your damage over time attacks so you know what to cast next >very usefull in my opinion
- LoreBooks for Books
- SkyShards for Skyshards
- HarvestMaps: Shows Spawns for Herbs, Wood and most importantly treasure chests.
- Map Pins to Pin interesting places and add a comment.
- Display Leads >gives hints to find them
- I also use Clock 2.0 it shows the time in game, not essential, but good if you want to hunt for Vampires or Werwolves in the wild (the ones that are able to turn you)

That's all I use, but I will take a look into the crafting one ;-)
Make sure to download all necessary libraries. The place you want to go to is esoui.com.

Sorry, no youtube for that, didn't know it was mandatory, check post above for link ;-)

Map pins shows skyshard locations and lore book locations. No need for all 3.

- AUI , this include more action bar, bindable Q menu, minimap, buff/debuff cooldown etc
- skyshard
- lorebooks
- destination, this one for world/delve/public dungeon boss location, quest location and also treasure map location

[Shifty Mario]

-advanced filters: sub-categories when viewing inventory
-auto recharge: auto recharge enchantments under a threshold, need spare soul gems
-FCO Craftfilter: adds a filter when crafting equipment for bag only, bag only, or show both
-inventory insight: shows all items across all characters and all storage including coffers, includes searching. Extremely useful when you eventually get storage coffers and need to search who has what

When you hit CP150, combat metrics

[warmonger3]

Bandit's UI, Combat Metrics, Code's Combat Alerts, and Inventory Insight. These are going to help you get max level. I just achieved 1000 CP yesterday. :0) And I am getting close to a sixth max level toon. I have played allot in quarantine.

Bandits UI is amazing
