Scrying Skill Post ESO+

Napalm_Death32 · August 2023

Hey so i have a single month ESO+ that i won't be renewing it, purely out of the lack of funds.
I have the skill tree unlocked, i was wondering, will i still be able to scry after the sub runs out? I only have Greymoor unlocked on EU and not NA and plan on playing on NA, i know i can use crowns to purchase it but until i have the means to purchase the dlc or have enough gold to buy crowns for it, i won't have it.
Just wondering if i can use it? The reason i have Greymoor on EU and Not NA is cause i accidently bought it on the wrong server, both classes i use is the same and thought i was on NA and not EU & yeah, already spoke to ZOS and that didn't help

Yes, you should keep every class, armor, and skill unlocked. But you will lose access to all areas that were opened through ESO+ but not purchased directly, for example, Gold Coast and Hew's Bane if you did not purchase the Thieves Guild/Dark Brotherhood DLC

As far as I am aware, when your ESO+ expires...

You lose access to the DLC's. You do keep the DLC skill line and points you spent in them but cant spend more points or level them up further.

I believe you can no longer scry or excavate but I might be wrong.

It kinda varies. You keep skill lines that you've unlocked, but you can generally no longer continue to level them and in some cases they effectively become unusable (ie: you can't scry or dig; you can't access jewelry stations; can't complete psijic / thieves guild / db quests since you lose access to the corresponding zones).

But for example, if you unlocked the appropriate skills during ESO plus, you can continue to use the blade of woe / open thieves troves and psijic portals / continue to benefit from any skills you've unlocked in those skill lines. And you keep things like skyshards, skill points, achievements and gear that you've already collected, even though you lose access to the zones / dungeons.

I levelled scrying with free eso+ so I dont have to enter greymoor anymore and thought i could get malacath band and other items now but scrying is unavailable without eso+ in zones you own too even when you have skilline,

Ah ok thanks, i had a feeling that would be the issue. i thought unlocking the skill line, you would still be able to scry afterwards

You will lose the ability to scry and excavate when your ESO+ ends if you haven't bought the chapter that includes those skill lines. Although, I've read the skill lines will be in the crown store next update. But as someone pointed out above, you will lose access to most of the zones that have the leads in them when sub expires, so no reason to have skill line if no access to zones you'd use the skills in.

if you own greymoor, you can continue scrying and excavating

if you only had access to greymoor from eso+, then if you lose eso+ you will lose the ability to scry/excavate

the same thing applies to jewelry crafting and summerset

Only scrying gets blocked, could still excavate a few items i scryed with eso+ but without scrying you can only excavate what is already scryed.

Yeah it seems ZOS lacks common sense
