Which add-on shows you where quests are that give skill points?

Gothlander · January 2016

I only want to do the quests that give skill points. Is there an add-on that marks those quests on the map for you?

That's a good idea. I would love an add-on that shows where the Cadwell Silver and Gold quests are, too. There are around 5 of them in every zone, IIRC, and some of them are really hard to find.

There is one called Quest Map that does both of those things. You install it, then hit your map, click filters at the top right, scroll down to the bottom and there are checkboxes for "Subfilter (Caldwell's Almanac)" and "Subfitler (Skill Point)".

I use it all the time when leveling new chars to not do all the quests but just the ones I care about.

doing this without an addon:

Look at the quests required for completion of caldwells silver/gold. As soon as you begin either silver or gold in the very fist zone of each you are typically given the starter quest for that locations Caldwell chain. When you complete the Caldwell quest the next quest giver is usually standing right next to you or very close by ready to drop the next link in the chain.

Edit: the questlines in caldwells silver/gold are the ones which give out the skill point at the end. There may be 1-2 exceptions I am not aware of, but they all did for me.

check quest list on uesp.net it has all qs with questgiver loot and skillpoints and indeed follow cadwells dilver/gold as they are the only qs (nt all of them!) with skillpoints

I've been doing a series of short video guides to the skill point quests and the associated achievements in each zone. I'm done with EP and working on DC right now. I just posted Alik'r Desert. I point you to the quest hubs you need to complete. I'm talking about the main quest line in each zone, not the Main Story, which involves the Prophet and Molag Bal.

In general, the easiest way to find the main quest line is to pick up the first quest offered to you in each zone, or follow the quest given to you in the previous zone that pointed you in that direction. Then once you have that quest chain, do not accept any other quests in the zone. Just follow the chain. In most cases the chain is fairly easy to follow. You pick up the next quest in the chain from the same person you talked to when completing the previous step. There are some exceptions. My videos are quick and tell you what hubs to go to and I show you what my map looks like when I've completed the chain. Once you complete the chain, you can decide whether to do more quests. There are many, many, many quest hubs you can skip entirely in each zone.

I typically do the main quest line, the main story, the guild quests, the dolmens, delves, the public dungeon (each one has a group challenge that awards a skill point), and the world bosses. I do all that and then the appropriate tier for the Group Dungeon in the zone (they come in tiers of three). After I complete all that, I'm ready to go to the next zone, even though I skipped a lot of content.

Look for the videos that are entitled "Guide to Skill Point Quests".
