Elder Scrolls Online

I was wondering why Glenumbra was so packed today xD

Lady/Lord of Misrule is already one of my favorite titles, but gawd do I now want to be the Empieror.

Looks like some poor sods had to work a night shift, on a weekend no less. I wonder what happened there. Did the hamsters break out? Server exploded? Both?

The best way of doing this is to get one extra player from your PvP faction and two extra players who are both from the same rival faction and cheese it.

A guildmate of mine spent all of yesterday trying to get it legit and got all of ONE pie kill.
Only the kill shot counts towards the achievement, so trying to get it legit while everybody else is also trying to kill your target is a fools errand, ironically enough.

Stupid achievement design is stupid.

1/ Get your 2 pairs of players.
2/ Be sure to have at least 10 soul gems and pies per player.
3/ Go to a deserted PvP server. Non-Cp server will probably be your best bet.
4/ Find a quiet spot on the map both pairs can reach.
5/ Take it in turns to pie then kill one of your opposites and let their partner revive your victim.
6/ Enjoy getting your title in 10 minutes instead of 10 days.


This is how 1v1 dueling was done in the old days of the game before a proper system for it was implemented.

You know you've played ESO to long when you have to stop and think if you've logged in for the daily reward or not.

Also, new Elsweyr zone trailer just got released.

Died in the last fight of vet Banished Cells 1, then got rezzed right as fire erupted beneath me and he shot me with that annoying one-shot bolt. Then after that I died a third time

… But I did get purple shoes of sanctuary though. So all that dying was worth it Might need to be better prepared before trying that again, though . Not fair on the other group members

Other than buying the base game and whichever dlcs you'd like, there's no money required to play the game itself. The crown store is mostly cosmetic items.

ESO plus (the subscription service) is pretty essential for anyone who wants to be a crafter, because it comes with an unlimited size craft bag (so handy). If you have no ambitions of being a crafter then the free game is fine. That being said buying ESO plus comes with 1700 monthly crowns, which for a year is about 19,000 crowns (you get all in one go), which I used to buy almost all of the DLC in the game (even though subscription holders gain access to it for free). So if you like the game and intend to buy the DLC, do a quick bit of research and see if it's worth it to buy a subscription and use the crowns gifted to you to buy the DLC you intended. Subscription is 140 for the year. 19000 crowns is about 130? So if you intend to buy the DLC and put your free crowns toward that, you're paying 10 dollars for a year subscription ... just sayin'

Craft bag is life. All hail the craft bag.

Thanks, but I was the only one who died, and I died multiple times *bangs head on desk* I'm currently CP 215, so I might wait a few more weeks till I get to CP 300 before trying again? Everyone else was at a higher CP level too.

Let's see, for the moment because I haven't done too many dungeon runs I've just been pairing it with other random pieces of equipment. I have three of pieces of the Vanus set, so I get a boost in magicka recovery. I thought about crafting some seducer armour, but you need 4 pieces for that double hit of magicka recovery … At the moment after drinking witchmother magicka recovery is 2300, which is a little more than I try and keep it at (2200). 

I also have a random heavy pauldron (Pauldron of Tormentor) that seems to add health, just so I can get some heavy armour passives I guess. And a random medium belt (belt of the Spelunker) to add stamina. I'm not really very happy with my medium armour options at the moment I've been tempted to run 6 light and 1 heavy, pairing Sanctuary with Seducer and netting me more magicka recovery. I don't have any staves in the Sanctuary set.

My healing and lightning staves are just a couple of random ones I picked up because I was looking for some with the defending trait (I'm too squishy I think. So more resistance is always welcome ) My healing staff is only CP 140 because I haven't been able to find one with CP160 that has defending

It happens, we've all been there and we've all had to go through it as we practiced If you feel more comfortable with gathering more CPs before running dungeons I'm not going to keep insisting that you queue into dungeons anyway, although now that you are in a guild you may find people to run group content with regularly (also good to queue to at least one random normal dungeon run every day to get all that juicy XP for CP leveling) - I know I benefited a lot after I've met folks who were chill enough to let me run with them a lot and learn the ropes along the way. 
I benefit from having max CP and have everything set up optimally for each role I play, as well as familiarity with content from years of playing, so I know that what works for me will not necessarily work for someone who is newer to this. If you're running solo content on that char I'm also not sure how you'd feel about running full healing specs and spreading your available CPs on the tree that is optimal for healers because, while most solo content ain't that demanding, a pure healer set up can noticeably slow things down - but maybe I can give some useful pointers?

I don't know your class or race, but ESO's class system is flexible enough to let us heal effectively on all classes so long as they're mag-specced and have useful sets/mundus stone/buff food/potions and so on - and if you want to eventually run group content efficiently, I'd personally run 5 piece+5 piece+2 piece or 5+4+3 with bonuses from relevant sets.

You have a few options, easily available if you have access or ability to do some crafting.

Sanctuary is a good set, especially if you're worried about your health, thanks to health bonuses, but I'd probably craft a full Seducer as that one is excellent all-around set that helps shave off magica cost significantly. You likely already know that regen (and mana cost redux) is very important for healers as we don't just heal the group, but throw a lot of support abilities, many of which can be quite expensive - I have around 2700-2800 magica regen on my main healers. You may not need as much, especially in vanilla dungeons, but as you grow confident with your healing you will likely want to throw more costly abilities to help support your group or will need to heal more as you tackle more demanding dungeons and that regen will help a lot. PUGs especially can leave your mana pool woefully empty really fast for majority of fight - if there's one thing random groups teach well is resource management for healers, ahaha

I run full light setup specifically for regen and cost redux, but that's my personal preference - I know many pro healers who run 5+1+1 or 6+1, as mixed sets don't just give small boosts from med+heavy passives, but benefit greatly from Undaunted passives, which is why mixed setups have been BiS for most builds ever since those passives became a thing. I'm just a tryhard who knows how to survive even in hardest trials, so I can handle full light setup, aside from benefiting heavily from having max CP and thus greatly increased damage mitigation. 

But you can do a lot to increase your own damage mitigation without max CP - improving your armor from blue to purple should immediately increase your resistances, which will boost your survivability and trait effectiveness, with recommended traits being infused (stronger enchant effect) or divines (stronger benefit from mundus stone) or reinforced/nirnhoned for armor rating/resistances (in case you want more of that). 

I'd also swap the staff from 140 to 160 crafted one, since you don't have dropped staff that you'd like to use and also improved it to epic - staff damage also increases healing strength, which means stronger heals for you and the group. With beefed-up resistances from purpled/full sets you may not need a defending trait on your staff and instead use Powered, which should also keep you alive thanks to stronger heals. Crafted staff should probably answer question which trait you need faster than finding a drop with desired trait.

I'd also ditch a single Tormentor piece, because it gives you no bonuses - given that at some point you may swap shoulder+head piece to monster helm set (be it Troll King or Chokethorn or relevant 1-piece bonuses... Earthgore set is BiS for healers, but you'll probably hate running Blodroot forge as that DLC dungeon is no joke - if you have money you can occasionally buy either helm or shoulder with infused trait in Cyrodiil from luxury vendor for 100k gold or impenetrable for 300k AP), you may want to think about crafting, say, med/light shoulder and heavy head from whichever set you think is more beneficial to you (be it max health or max mag 2 items bonus) or craft a staff with built-in 2-piece bonus before you swap it to something else.

You may also be interested with Torug's Pact crafted set, since 3-piece bonus will give you magica damage and health increase - and pair, say, 1 Torug's armor piece and staves with Willpower jewelry for magica and spell damage boost (Willpower jewelry is very cheap and also comes with health/arcane traits in case you wanted to choose which attribute you'd like to boost), in case you don't have Sanctuary jewelry pieces.

Anyway, that's how I see it and you're free to do with that information whatever you like. I assume you know how to craft or know how to find a crafter, but in case you didn't, I can craft and improve everything (that is unbound, naturally), from weapons to jewelry in all traits and it's not a problem to craft anything up to purple (jewelry up to blue) quality free of charge, in case anybody is interested.
