SECTION 2 - YOUR FIRST FOUR MAJOR CHOICES

_____FIRST CHOICE_____

CHOOSE YOUR MAIN RESOURCE
It's simple, do you want to be a MAGICKA or STAMINA player?

Magicka players use a staff and magic spells at range to do magic damage in light armor and stack shields and heals to protect themselves. Macicka players can also use magicka abilities abilities at melee range. Lightning staff is for damaging multiple targets and a flame staff is for single targets. Staves do Magic damage and is indicated in Blue. Magicka damage is boosted by max magicka, spell damage; spell critical & spell penetration. The basic buffs & debuffs are major breach, major sorcery, major & minor prophecy, major ward & resolve, minor berserk.

Stamina players use a bow from distance and then gap-close to fight up close and personal with melee weapons of steel in medium armor and use block, roll dodge and shuffle to protect themselves. Bow and metal weapons do Physical Damage indicated in Green. Physical damage is boosted by max stamina, weapon damage; weapon critical & physical penetration. The basic buffs & debuffs are major & minor fracture, major & minor brutality, major savagery, major ward & resolve, minor berserk.


_____ SECOND CHOICE_____

Choose your ALLIANCE & CLASS carefully as they are PERMANENT and cannot be changed later on.
Start with a DD (Damage Dealer) and rather wait with your tank until after Level 50/160
IF you are dead set on doing a healer or tank use one of their bars for damage.

RACE & CLASS SHOULD complement each other in terms of CLASS ABILITIES, CLASS PASSIVES & RACE PASSIVES
So if you have made your first choice then research which RACE is best suited for magicka or stamina play.

RESEARCH HERE WHEN YOU WANT TO CREATE YOUR FIRST CHARACTER:
CLASS INFO https://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Character+Information
MATCH RACE PASSIVES to CLASS https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/460786/new-race-passives-a-update-21-summary/p1?

TYPICAL RACES:
MAGICKA - High Elf / Breton/ Argonian
STAMINA - Wood Elf / Redguard / Orc
HYBRID - Khajit / Dark Elf / Nord

TYPICAL CLASSES:
Damage Dealer - Sorcerer/Nightblade/Dragonknight/Necromancer
Tank - Dragonknight/ Warden/Necromancer
Healer - Templar/Warden
Note: All classes have the option to DD, heal and tank but some roles are preferred in end game.

HELPFUL:
BUY the ANY RACE ANY ALLIANCE bundle.
Ask your friend or guild which faction they play in.


WATCH AN END GAMER PLAY
The best way to learn is to emulate a good player and then work out your own playstyle from there:

https://youtu.be/siD60g91aLk


_____ THIRD CHOICE_____

GET TO 160 on your FIRST CHARACTER as a PRIORITY using crafted training gear and xp potions/scrolls. Note Read how to max out your experience gain in section 4.

Create and level your strongest DD to CP160 and beyond as ALL NEW CHARACTERS will then START AT LEVEL 160 when they are level 1. This will make them much easier to play. Feel free to create other characters early to train their horses but don’t spend time on them, focus on 1 character. IF you are a brand new player start with a Magica DD (Damage Dealer) or Stamina DD (Damage Dealer). XP is gained MOSTLY via combat & quest completion and it is better to wait with other low DPS characters such as healers and tanks which normally have low damage until you hit 160. Once you get to level CP160 your gear does not level anymore and you should get new gear in the divines trait for armor with infused weapons.


_____ FOURTH CHOICE _____

JOIN THE FIGHTERS, MAGES & UNDAUNTED GUILD
- ALDMERI DOMINION - VUKELGUARD in AURIDON at the Fighters guild, Mages guild and Turuk Redclaws can be found upstairs in the Salted Wings Tavern
- DAGGERFALL COVENANT - DAGGERFALL in GLENUMBRA at the Fighters guild, Mages guild and Mighty Mordra can be found downstairs in The Rosy Lion
- EBONHEART PACT - DAVON'S WATCH in STONEFALLS at the Fighters guild, Mages guild and Kailstig the Axe can be found sitting just inside The Fish Stink Tavern

JOIN A PLAYERS GUILD...
with a voice channel for advice, crafted gear and general help. Use guild finder to search.

... AND ASK FOR A GUILDIE TO MAKE YOU TRAINING GEAR (YOU MUST PROVIDE THE MATERIAL)
It's just good form to provide the materials which you can just pick up as ore (for metal items), wood (for bows & staves) or clothing plants (for light & medium armor) and jewelry.
If the crafter is REALLY nice he will craft you jewelry. The basic rule of thumb is to provide 20 raw items for each white and un-glyphed crafted piece.

SECTION 4 - BASICS

AVOID THE URGE to make your character to look like an ass or weird as you are going to be looking at it for many hours.

a) ALL ATTRIBUTE POINTS INTO EITHER MAGICA or STAMINA

b) Before level 160 wear TRAINING ARMOR to INCREASE LEVELLING
After 160 wear DIVINE ARMOR to INCREASE MUNDUS STONE EFFECTS
* Magica characters use The Apprentice mundus stone
* Stamina characters use The Warrior mundus stone
(Golden Clover has all the mundus stones at their guild home)

c) GET SKILL POINTS
(Addons: MAP PINS & ULFRIC SKILL POINT FINDER )

* Skyshards: 3 gets you 1 Skill Point
* Do quests that grant SKILL POINTS as reward
https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Category:Online-Quests_with_Skill_Points?fbclid=IwAR0kk8fvVvb1v-T62wUMu-4KnFFYr8HbHGZNMtTS2xXDUt9d4Hek6ysN6Xc
* Kill the GROUP EVENT BOSS in the PUBLIC DUNGEONS
* Collect a skyshard in every delve
* Do some PvP for easy Rank Promotions (Alliance war & Battlegrounds)
* XP Gain via map completion
If this is your first time then take your time and enjoy the quests but dont waste your time on side quests that do not grant skill points.

d) AFTER 50/160 USE MAX STAT BUFF FOOD & POTIONS
* Stamina - Lava foot soup or Beef Capon Supreme
* Magica - Salmon Millet Soup or Withered Tree in Venison
* Have a provisioner make you these buff food & potions:

e)BOOST YOUR XP GAIN LIKE THIS:
* Weapons with infused or sharpened trait (We dont use training on weapons because your experience scales off the amount of damage you do)
* Gear with training trait (stacks per item IE 7% Chest + 7% Legs = 14% bonus XP)
* Group of 2 (+10% extra)
* ESO plus Member (+10% extra)
* Ring of Mara (+10% extra)
* XP Potion or scroll (+ 50% / +100% / +150% extra)
* Use Festival boosts (+100%) (They stack with above xp potions & scrolls)
* Do your random daily dungeon in enlightened phase
* Read books to level skills
* Have a strong player help you level you in Skyreach Catacombs in Craglorn
* Tag along with OP players running a public dungeon, world boss farm
* Do the Alikr Dolmen run or The Bangkorai World Boss Run/Dolmen run
* Find a leveling group at any Zombie location (Indicated by a coffin)

SECTION 5 - DAMAGE

We have all seen them and even reported them, those God builds that just doesn't seem to take any damage. How do we get enough damage to kill them?
Well god builds have merely applied their minds to how to mitigate your damage beyond what most players ever work toward. Here is an easy to understand explanation of how to increase your damage in ESO.

Back when I started playing as a Templar PvP healer I would take great delight in finishing off those unkillable Dragonknights Vampires & Werewolves by just applying Power of the light, elemental drain and heavy attack with a lightning staff of Infallible Aether with a Prismatic Glyph. As all ten players who were chasing them got their attacks multiplied with my buffs and debuffs the proc of the prismatic glyph and the end would finish them off.


_____HELPFUL COMBAT ADJUSTMENTS_____

ADJUST THE:
- CURSOR (aka AIM) from over your right shoulder to 2-3 cm directly above your head.
- FIELD OF VIEW to 130 degrees
- FRIENDLY/ENEMY/INTERACTIVE GLOWS.
- MINIMAP and heath/stam/magica/effect bars to ALWAYS SHOW
- ENEMY AOE COLOUR to PINK
- ULTIMATE to T
- ROLL DODGE to R
- DEATH RECAP to NUMPAD -

_____TYPES OF DAMAGE_____

STAMINA CLASSES do PHYSICAL, DISEASED and POISON damage and has a GREEN TOOLTIP
MAGICKA CLASSES do MAGICAL and ELEMENTAL (FLAME/SHOCK or FROST) damage and has a BLUE TOOLTIP
IMPORTANT: CHOOSE ONE TYPE OF DAMAGE and STACK everything into that specific type of damage as the damage will SCALE UP.


_____TYPES OF ATTACK_____

During the fight you want as MANY TYPES of attack, buff & debuffs as possible happening at the SAME TIME
Stamina and Magica characters have unique buffs & debuffs that should be up at all times.

- Light attack
- Heavy attack
- DOT (Damage over Time)
- AOE (Area of Affect)
- Ability attack
- Ultimate attack
- Execute attack

_____HOW DOES DAMAGE WORK IN ESO_____

Before the attack Penetration & Debuffs are calculated against the targets pre-attack Mitigation & Defensive Buffs such as Shields, Resistances and Buffs.
then the (Attackers Flats Stats x Multipliers) are subtracted from the Targets Health

To do a successful attack both group Group A (Flat Stat Resources) and Group B (Multipliers) must be high and Debuffs optimal

Group A
Consist of values that are constant BEFORE the attack
such as your base resource pool value (IE Max Magica or Stamina) + 20% from CP + food + potion + mundus + race passives + gear set+ base magica/stam

Group B
Consist of values that are cast and have a timer
such as damage from a used ability + casting major & minor buffs & debuffs + critical strikes + damage multipliers like force/vulnerability/slayer etc.

EXAMPLE:
Group A 1 x 10 Group B = 10 damage (no good)
Group A 6 x 5 Group B = 30 damage (better)


_____HOW TO INCREASE YOUR DAMAGE in ESO_____

It's simple: Have HIGH FLAT STATS, HIGH MULTIPLIERS and EFFECTIVE BUFFS & DEBUFFS
How do I do that? Just get as many as possible bonuses that increase your flat stats and multipliers and make sure you stack them all into one specific type of damage.
So then
STACK, STACK, STACK your bonuses to max out your 4 MAIN FLAT STATS and MULTIPLY, MULTIPLY, MULTIPLY those with ATTACK MULTIPLIERS!

The FLAT STATS for
- MACICKA CHARACTERS are MAX MAGICA, SPELL DAMAGE, SPELL CRITICAL & SPELL PENETRATION (Ideally 9K for PvE)
- STAMINA CHARACTERS are MAX STAMINA, WEAPON DAMAGE, WEAPON CRITICAL & PHYSICAL PENETRATION ((Ideally 9K for PvE)

Do this via gear, buffs, debuffs, passives, abilities and unique buffs from other players such as:
* Five of the same ARMOUR TYPE bonus
* Five of the same ARMOUR SET bonus (It is possible to equip two full five piece sets so you have double of this bonus)
* One of each ARMOR TYPE bonus. The undaunted passive gives you bonus Magicka/Health/Stamina if you run a 5/1/1 set
* SPECIAL GEAR BUFF & DEBUFFS IE All gear sets have bonus abilities that can increase your damage.
* A MONSTER Head & shoulder Set (2 piece bonus) or Special Weapon set (2 piece bonus) For beginners these are normally 3 piece agility or willpower sets
* A MUNDUS STONE bonus
* A FOOD BUFF bonus
* A POTION bonus
* INFUSED JEWELRY with DAMAGE GLYPHS
* A Max stam or Max magica bonus (Damage scales off max magica or max stamina and the more you have the more extra damage you do, this is why we put all attribute points into either stamina or magica.
* CRIT DAMAGE BONUS If you get a critical strike you get +50% extra damage (Determined by your Weapon or Spell Critical %)
* SECONDARY EFFECT BONUS (IE a “burning” enemy will take 20% extra flame damage from flame attacks)
* MAX CHAMPIONSHIP POINTS from your highest post level 160 character will be in effect on your newbie character from level 1
* Apply DAMAGE MULTIPLIER BUFFS like FORCE, BERSERK, SLAYER, VULNERABILITY
* SLOTTED ABILITY bonus
IE Inner Light (mages guild), Bound Aegis (Sorc) give extra max magica
* PASSIVE bonus LOTS of passives gives various bonuses when you use a certain ability or do things in a certain order.
* LIGHT ATTACK WEAVE when you add an extra light attack in-between every ability attack.
* EXECUTE ABILITIES when a target is below a certain level of health
* HEAVY ATTACK WEAVE by pressing an ability that will automatically go off when the heavy attack completes.
* ANIMATION CANCEL by using BASH or WEAPON SWAP
* SPECIAL BUFF FROM CERTAIN CLASSES
IE If your'e a magicka DD team up with a Templar that can give you minor sorcery by casting any of his/her Dawns Wrath abilities.

.

SECTION 6 - STAGES OF A FIGHT

A
STAGE ONE - BUFF
Buff your character to do more damage, survive better or have better resource sustain (Normally applied just before battle)

B
STAGE TWO - DEBUFF
Debuff the enemy to take more damage, do less damage to you or to make him easier to kill or weaken him (Normally applied just before the fight starts, in PvP a immobilisation forms part of the debuff)

C
STAGE THREE - APPLY A DOT
You apply a DOT (Damage over time) This is a form of attack that does damage over time to your enemy while you are also doing other forms of damage to it.

D
STAGE FOUR - APPLY AOE's
Apply an AOE (Area of Effect) that does damage over time to enemies in an area.

E
STAGE FIVE - SECONDARY STATUS EFFECTS
Achieve SECONDARY EFFECT STATUS as it gives a 20% damage bonus. IE an enemy that has been set on fire will take even more damage from flame effects.

F
STAGE SIX - LIGHT ATTACK WEAVE.
LIGHT ATTACKS are FREE and reduces the enemy MAGICA / STAMINA and HEALTH RESTORE & MAKES YOU GAIN ULTIMATE FASTER

You attack then wear the enemy down with a LIGHT ATTACK & SPAMMABLE ABILITY
(This is called LIGHT ATTACK WEAVING. LA’s take about 0.5 sec and a spammable ability about 1 sec. As the LA cancels the animation of the Ability Attack it is possible to do both attacks in 1 sec increasing your damage.)

G
STAGE SEVEN - REAPPLY BUFFs, DEBUFFS & DAMAGE MULTIPLIERS.
These normally run out at about 30 seconds so it might be time to reapply them. If its a long fight dont hold on to your ultimate to finish the enemy off, drop it at the start as you will have regenerated the ultimate by the end.

H
STAGE EIGHT - HEAVY ATTACK WEAVE
Switch to a HEAVY ATTACK WEAVE if you start running LOW on MAGICA or STAMINA. To heavy attack weave you hold the heavy attack button in while spamming one of the following DOT, HOT, AOE, SHIELD, HEAL. The ability will AUTOMATICALLY go off when the heavy attack is completed even though you are still holding the button down.

HEAVY ATTACKS ARE FREE AND RESTORE MAGICA and STAMINA
Another consideration for new players without a lot of CP is to keep your health, stamiina and magica close to full by not doing a light attack weave. Especially on bosses that do huge amounts of damage.

I
STAGE NINE - EXECUTE

BONUS DAMAGE KICKS IN WHEN THE ENEMY DROPS BELOW 50%/20%/5% HEALTH
Almost every class and weapon has an EXECUTE ABILITY which gives up to 300% MORE DAMAGE when the target is at LOW HEALTH. Find out what it is and use it to finish your targets off.

You can research the bloodthirsty trait and transmute jewelry to do more damage during the execute phase. 1 Jewelry item is enough.

J
_____SIMULTANEOUS ACTIONS______

Some attacks like applying ELEMENTAL DRAIN does not alert npc enemies so these can be applied just before launching a delayed attack that takes some time before hitting the enemy, and quickly follow up with a light attack and your main spammable. Light attacks delays the enemy's health, stam & magica restore and it is really effective to follow up with a dot & aoe.

JUST AN EXAMPLE of OPENING ATTACK SEQUENCE that will all HIT AT THE SAME TIME In the case of a magic sorcerer:

* Surge
* Elemental drain
* Crystal Fragments
* Light Attack
* Force Shock
* Light Attack
* Haunting Curse
* Wall of elements
* Rune Cage

The effect looks and feels almost like a one shot especially if you're on the receiving end and is probably the reason who many new players experience quite a shock in first time pvp.

When you have sets like Queens elegance & spell strategist that proc their bonus off light attacks the effect is even more spectacular.
* Surge
(20% extra spell damage for 20s with Major sorcery + heals from crit strikes)
* Elemental drain
(5200 spell resistance debuff + 300 per sec magica restore)
* Crystal Fragments delayed strike
( Big damage + gives 2150 extra points your chance to have a critical strike (+50 % damage) with Major Prophecy)
* Light Attack
(Reduces enemy health, stamina & magica restore)
(Start spam-clicking this attack while you are winding up the animation cast time of your crystal frags, it will go off automatically once you cast your crystal frags)
* Force Shock
(Big damage, chance to apply secondary effect bonus of 20% damage and applies a dot)
* Haunting Curse
(Massive damage over time explosions)
* Wall of elements
(to do enhanced damage because of secondary effect status)


Known Ground AoE bugs...
If you cast immediately from sprint, they can miscast;
if you have a slope in front of you, or LoS is obscured somehow, they can miscast
if you weave them, they can miscast
if you cancel via dodge roll or block, they can miscast
if you light attack before the cast animation completes, they can miscast
if you move before the target shrinks, they can miscast
if you bar swap before the target shrinks, they can miscast

you need to slow down your rotation, not weave, focus crosshair at ground below intended target to shorten the target resize time as workaround.


K
_____IF THE ENEMY ATTACKS_____

MITIGATE the DAMAGE by:
* Roll dodge away from an attack or out of enemy AOE
* Blocking to mitigate 50% of the damage
* Interrupting a channeled attack (The enemy will get a YELLOW GLOW)
* It is possible to BLOCK-HEAL and/or BLOCK-SHIELD WITHOUT DROPPING BLOCK
* Counter healing the damage
* High resistances
* Placing a damage mitigating effect on the enemy like Major MAIM or a

SECTION 8 - PVP

Firstly you don't loose anything by dying in fact you gain XP and there are many nice skills & abilities to be had from PvP skill trees. There are 0ver 50 daily PvE missions in Cyrodiil that you can do from the 5 towns. You can also make literally millions of gold each month by doing the easy peasy PvE dailies in Cyrodiil and Imperial City that allows you to create the Gladiators Runebox or
Seigemasters Runebox.

UPDATED in 2022 DEC
As a new pvp player you can cut down your micromanagement of buffs a lot by running a single bar build. Here are some generic tips that will help you find yoir feet.

1) Try getting the oakensoul ring (It minimises delays in weaponswap)
2) run a heavy reinforced chest, head and legs (see point 11)
3) and a medium divine shoulders, feet, hands and waist. (you can optionally run the waist as a light)
4) Use bewitched sugar skulls as food
5) Use tripots as potion (bugloss columbine and mountainflower)
6) Glyph all your armor with Truly Superb Glyphs of Prismatic Defence
7) Run a sharpened weapon with a weapon damage glyph
8) Run The Lover Mundus
9) Slot the Resolving Vigor skill from Alliance Tree (Assault)
10) Slot the Lingering Fkare skill from Alliance Tree (Support)
11) Equip the Gallant Chain chest aka The hravy armor of the Trainee chest in Reinfirced (Available form a 10 min quest) or just have someone cast The Druids Bride Heavy Reinforced Chest for you
12) In Red CP slot the health, resistance, recovery and running spped cps
13) In the Blue CP slot wraithfull strikes, tba, and two CPs that boost the type of damage you are doing like single target and direct damage

SECTION 11 - HOW TO MAKE GOLD

Use the GOLDEN CLOVER TRADING GUIDE
https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/462238/golden-clover-trading-guide/p1

**************************************************
THE GOLDEN CLOVER TRADING GUIDE:
*************************************************

SOME SIMPLE TRADING RULES:
- Price it well or it won't sell!
- You have 30 trader slots, fill them!
- If it hasn't sold in three days it may be unwanted or over-priced
- Ask yourself: "Will I buy this item and at this price?"
- Rare and in-demand items sell at average value or slightly higher
- Common and in-demand items sell better at 10% below average
- Rare items should be improved to purple or gold (except jewelry)
- Average means that there is still at least 30% of sellers offering the same item below the "average" price.
- New DLC motifs will drop significantly in price with time unless they are extremely hard to obtain so sell it while it's hot!
- Event motifs, style pages & consumable collectives sell at 4 times their end value at the beginning of the event, so sell the first ones you get and buy at the end of the event.
- If everyone wants something, be the one to provide it.

BASICS - HOW TO SELL YOUR ITEM IN THE GUILD TRADER
- You need to be in a guild that has a trader (If you don't have a trader you can still sell via guild store to players in your guild)
- To check if you have a trader press G and look to see if one has been hired for the week
- If there is a trader you can travel to the trader directly or place the items in the trader via any town banker.
- To sell simply click on the trader or town banker and select the icon of two coins balanced on eschother called "SELL"
- This will bring up your inventory
- Double click the item you want to sell which will then place it in one of the 30 trader slots
- type in our listing price
- Select the "LIST" option to complete the listing (R)
- The item is now in the trader and the players on the server can buy it.

TRADING TOOLS:
NEW PLAYERS & YOUNG GUILDS will benefit the most from using the TAMRIEL TRADE CENTRE addon and search engine as it is server and not guild based.

* INTERNET SEARCH ENGINE:
ESO internet search engine https://eu.tamrieltradecentre.com/ (kinda like an ESO Trade Store Google)
ps: You can buy a TTC listed item that is not in a trader via a direct mail request to the seller
Guilds should get at least 1 member to upload the guilds items to TTC each day

* IN-GAME PRICE CHECKER ADD-ONS:
- Tamriel Trade Center
(All users based database, best option as it uses a data base beyond you personal guilds)
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1245-TamrielTradeCentre.html

- Arkadius Trade Tools
(Guild based, runs light enough to play with it enabled)
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1752-ArkadiusTradeTools.html

- Master Merchant
(Guild based database, only run this while trading, all other times switched off)
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info928-MasterMerchant.html

- Nirn Auction House
https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1768-NirnAuctionHouse.html

HIGH VALUE ITEMS

- Selling the gladiators runebox from the capture 9 resources quest in Cyrodiil (worth app 1 million gold)

WARNINGS:
- Do proper research on sales before crafting furnishings
- Players manipulate MM by orchestrating extreme prices which over-inflates the price and makes the item look like a good buy
- NEVER just send a player an item via mail without activating the COD option
- If the COD fee is to high do the sale in person
- Invigorating is not a valuable trait

LIST OF TRADE ITEMS THAT SELL WELL:
https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/462238/golden-clover-trading-guide/p1?new=1

SECTION 12 - PASSIVES

Anyone can make a character, but to make a GOOD character you will benefit greatly from making a research of the things that can increase your max resource/damage/critical & penetration.
Using abilities in a certain order or just slotting certain abilities allow their passives to turn you into a elite player that hits like a truck.

SPECIFICALLY LEARN MORE about YOUR characters ABILITIES & PASSIVES from https://eso-skillbook.com/
* CLASS
* WEAPON
* GUILD
* RACE

It could be a simple thing as unlocking level 3 of your potion passive from the Alchemy Tree to increase how long a potion stays active to a whole bunch of things that make you do better damage.

IE: A magicka sorcerer would for instance benefit greatly by using the following passive boosts:
1 - Slot INNER LIGHT from the MAGES GUILD which increase MAX MAGICKA
2 - Slot BOUND AEGIS from the SORCER CLASS TREE which increase MAX MAGICKA
3 - Wear 5 LIGHT ARMOUR which increase PENETRATION and many other MAGICKA boosts
4 - Wear 3 TYPES of ARMOUR (aka the 5L/1M/1H) setup which increase MAX MAGICA/HEALTH/STAMINA
5 - Slot as many as possible Sorcerer abilities on your attack bar
(There are many more)

SECTION 13 - BUFFS & DEBUFFS

fom http://esoacademy.com/buffs-debuffs/

SECTION 14 - LEARN TO SURVIVE

DEAD OFTEN? CHANGE YOUR CHEST and/or LEGS TO HEAVY INFUSED ARMOR with a HEALTH ENCHANT (or a PRISMATIC GLYPH)

SECTION 15 - CERTIFY AS A CRAFTER

In all 7 professions (Especially if you have ESO plus) as it is a quick and easy source of daily income with many bonuses like gold level improvement materials, survey maps with about 140 materials at one spot and sealed master writs which can be done for writ vouchers (A special type of currency to be used at Rolls Halaau - The master writ vendor.

SECTION 16 - RESET SKILLS, ATTRIBUTES & CP POINTS

RESPEC SKILLS & ATTRIBUTES AT A SHRINE OF AKATOSH for GOLD (No need to buy it with CROWNS)
Vampire & Werewolf bites should be available for free from your guildies. These can also be cured by a priest.

SECTION 17 - PLAYING WITHOUT ESO PLUS

If you're really into the game get ESO plus, it's the price of a movie and a meal and you’re spending way more recreational time on it.
HOWEVER IF finance is a problem or you just dont want ESO plus it is very possible to play without the ESO plus subscription.

The game is NOT on a pay to win model BUT you have to learn tips and tricks to manage your inventory.
How to play WITHOUT ESO PLUS:

* Get bag space to max
* Get bank space to max
* Level mount capacity to max

* Get the 8 storage chests (extra 360 slots) for your house.
Note you get a free house if you do the "Room to spare:" quest
(start the quest from the crown store.)
4 large chests (60 items)
4 small coffers (30 items)

They can be purchased with
master crafting writ vouchers
Tel Var Stones
Crown store
1 Free per character at level 18

Prices:
Large - 200 Writ Voucher / 200,000 Tel Var Stone / 2000 Crowns
Small - 100 Writ Voucher / 100,000 Tel Var Stone / 1000 Crowns

Note: If you're going to buy the chests using crowns then rather buy ESO plus and use the free 1500 crowns (per month) you get with ESO plus to buy the chests!
Unlike bank storage, ingredients stored in chests and coffers will not be used when crafting, and stored equipment will not appear in deconstruction, research, or upgrade windows at Crafting Stations.

* If you still need more space create a storage character as they start with 60 slots free.
* Create your own guild and get 9 other very casual players to join which gives you a guild bank of 500 more slots (do not offer to share the bank to avoid theft or misunderstandings)
* Buy an extra copy of One Tamriel when it goes on sale and mail yourself and/or create characters for storage & level 18 bonuses.
* Mail items to a mate and just have him/her return the mails which gives you 30 days extra storage in your mailbox
*Spend 5000 crowns on your personal merchant
*Collect everything as normal but sell the bag space fillers like provisioning items, trash, rune stones etc. immediately
*Focus ONLY on wood, clothing plants and ore as they stack.
*Sell flowers in stacks of 10 or create a flower keeper character to store large stacks (This is important if you do your own potions) Simply bank them and if your bank space becomes low withdraw them to your keeper.
Note: Personally I justify the expense as that it costs less than a meal and a movie per month and I spend way more time in game than any other form of entertainment.

*Please feel free to add your own personal solutions in the comments!

SECTION 18 - MAX YOUR SOCIAL GUILD VALUE

- Learn to use a price checker like TTC
- Learn how to sell using COD
- DONATE intricate items and learnables into the GUILD BANK
- SELL ITEMS in the GUILD STORE
- HELP OUT with price checks in GUILD CHAT
- Certify as crafter and supply regular consumables in the GUILD STORE
- Get other guildies to join you on quests, boss hunts, pledges, dailies
- INVITE players into your guild.
- Join GUILD EVENTS
- CRAFT for other guildies
- Use guild chat or discord/teamspeak to ask for advice
- Use the guild list for free teleports

SECTION 19 - CONTROL YOUR MAPS VIA ARROW KEYS

SET YOUR ARROW KEYS as follows:
UP ARROW - Minimap step zoom in
DOWN ARROW - Minimap step zoom out
RIGHT ARROW - 3rd Person step zoom in
LEFT ARROW – 3rd Person Step zoom out

SECTION 20 - UNBIND REDUNDANT KEYS

UNBIND the following keys which are not essential for play and only cause problems if you pres them by accident in a stressed situation like a boss fight or PvP:
* Toggle walk / run
* Always run
* Crown store
* Crown crates
* Championship Points

SECTION 21 - EXPLORE NICHE ACTIVITIES

* ROLEPLAY

SECTION 22 - QUEST FOR FREE STUFF

- FREE COSTUMES & HATS

- FREE PETS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZjxncHmu-w

- ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

- FREE POLYMORPHS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rxciPyX6fE

- FREE TARGET DUMMY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yIK1ocyU4k

SECTION 23 - USE YOUR CROWNS WISELY

First CROWN STORE PURCHASE should be THE MERCHANT then ANY RACE ANY ALLIANCE then THE BANKER

Non ESO plus users should buy in this order:
ELSWEYR, THE MERCHANT, ANY RACE ANY ALLIANCE, GUILDS & GLORY and then any other DLC they like.

Note if you make gold buying DLC does not cost you money as you can exchange your gold for a crown gift from another player.

SECTION 24 - AVOID BECOMING TOXIC

We all know them, players who are sarcastic/mocking/negative/rude/inconsiderate. These may be just characters on your screen but there are real people with real feelings controlling them. Think of the rejection a player feels before you just kick someone out of a group or a dungeon. If they are clearly out of their depth, try to carry them and whisper advice. They will be extremely grateful in most cases.

We once went to help a newbie through City of Ash II, he had been stuck there for almost 5 hrs and scores of players came and left. Eventually we came in with 3 strong vets, completed the dungeon and gave him our helmets so that he ended up with 4 monster masks instead of 1.

SECTION 25 - ENJOY THE GAME

Last and most important...ENJOY what you do! This is after all, a beautifully designed and complex game that you will never get bored of exactly because nothing is handed to you on a plate. So enjoy what you’re doing in moment and try to be less end goal focused! And remember death is not the end!

SECTION 28 - UNLOCK PvP SKILLS WITH PvE

HOW TO LEVEL PvP with PvE (easy easy)

Pure PvE players can really benefit from doing just enough in Cyrodiil to unlock some really good abilities that they can use outside of the alliance war in PvE questing and dungeons.

Besides the scouting missions which is a breeze with a speed and stamina levelled horse and 3 pc armour of Cyrodiil's Ward as well as Retreating maneuver speed buff, there are also 50 quick and easy PvE missions you can do at the marked locations on the map that will earn you alliance points to obtain really handy abilities in your Alliance War skill tree.

These include abilities like Rapid maneuver (speed buff), Vigor (Stamina burst and hot heal), Barrier (huge damage shield and heal over time), Purge (spell debuff) etc.

Even if another alliance owns the objective you can still get missions and turn in rewards if the guards are out of the way. It is not unusual for two enemies to be standing side by side at a quest giver either getting new quests or handing in quests that are done.

The more experienced players generally leave the questers in peace but you are obviously going to get the chop who likes to troll. I always tell player to treat death as a free respawn out of trouble as you simply click E and travel to another quest hub far away from Mr. PvP and co.

REWARDS:
Get amazing PvP skills that you can use in PvE
Get transmutation crystals
Get up to 50 daily reward containers
Get Alliance Points (green money)
Buy gold jewelry and vet dungeon masks on weekends

HOW TO:
Press L to enter Cyrodiil
Set your home campaign
Set a guest campaign
Right click on the campaign and enter
Port out from anywhere by typing "/stuck" in zone chat
Port out from anywhere by jumping to your guest campaign (you will load in at home base)

[marius_buys]

all good mate, of course there are many ways of doing it

[Tenacity]

Guess we won't agree on this. I'm of the opinion you should learn these things as early as you can, and as stamsorc is the best endgame sorc build, you'd be gimping yourself if you went petsorc just to "learn the class".

[marius_buys]

...for a NEW player petsorc in my humble opinion. Youre asking a new player to shieldstack and power up rotate is a bit tricky yes?
