High Level Content...... and Me

My Main is currently VR9 and since the VR 'changes' if I play my normal amount will very soon have all the VR content done except for Craglorn.......
and here is my problem..........
I have taken my time and done everything(health issues = long playing hours) PVE wise. Admittedly I haven't done hardly any PVP but there is a reason for that and that reason also worries me as far as Craglorn is concerned.
I have limited keyboard and mouse skills, my reflexes/co-ordination are impaired but so far I have managed OK.
What this adds up to is an overwhelming feeling that no Craglorn group will ever want me, feelings re-enforced by reading many threads about builds and DPS and all that sort of stuff. Also I feel PVP due to my problems will just be a 'death fest', so what do I do?
Where do I go next.........
I have already started alts but I like my Main and want to carry on playing her......
Anyone?

TeraAngelos✭✭✭Find a guild or Craglorn group that wants to play to have fun, and isn't going to take an elitist attitude and refuse to bring you if you don't have a perfect build.
It's an issue I've wrestled with as well; I hit V12 the other day and have just been doing PvP, because I can't find a Trial or Craglorn group besides grind groups. I don't want to completely change my build to go with an elite group, I just want to find a group of 4 to go do quests. I've been trying to build up my guild for this but unfortunately leveling is slow!2 -
Csub✭✭✭✭✭I guess most Craglorn group quests (although I am not sure as I am not there yet) are quite easy with 2-3 people so no one will be complaining if not everyone is playing like the best players. I know I wouldn't. Just try and go with guildmates if you can, or even if random people, you can find nice ones. If some people are jerk, ignore them.
I myself have just started the 3rd allience (AD) today on my main, after roughly 430-440 /played hours, it took me 2 months to get to 50 and another 2 months to get to 3rd alliance. It is faster now so I would estimate getting to Craglorn at middle/late august or early Sept.
But, back to the topic, as I said, I doubt quests are that hard in Craglorn, even dungeons are easier than Vet dungeons from what I have heard.
I do not know your character or playstyle, but try playing in a ranged/healer style. I am personally a healer templar who goes with 2H sword when soloing, but I never even thought of going melee in PvP. Many of us die a lot too but as long as you are enjoying, it is okay. Due to the huge battles, it's not you who is to be blamed when a keep is lost, it was a group effort and the others proved better or had more people.
Do not be afraid to join others, we all meet jerks who we would send to the deepest parts of Oblivion, but there are nice people out there too!"The Divines gave you a nose for a reason, Tharn. So you can keep your mouth shut and still keep breathing. - Lyris Titanborn2 -

✭✭✭I do have a guild but only myself and one other have even got close to VR10, I know this is my best option BUT it's just a bit annoying there is no 'End Game' solo content, while I wait for guildies to level up.
But we did have great fun the other night running our VR characters through non-VR group dungeons.......
I wont shout out the names of those who still managed to die......
Oh hold on one of them was me!!

It happens, I also got overconfident in lower level dungeons! Luckily, I am a healer so I managed to avoid shaming myself. But I do die a lot, like a few days ago, I wanted to jump on a rock on the edge of a cliff, but i accidently jumped over it and straight down to the foot of the cliff and died, I even got whispered by a random bypasser: "hahaha you died!" . Well, yes, I think I did. "The Divines gave you a nose for a reason, Tharn. So you can keep your mouth shut and still keep breathing. - Lyris Titanborn0 -

Have you read any of the recent threads about 'elitist' requirements for participation in Trials?
I'm not having a go at you but it appears certain builds are out..... completely...... I actually have THE acceptable build but as I said not quick on the keyboard, so therefore to many people a hinderance to be avoided.
Admittedly a certain amount of 'ditzyness' is involved as in not always knowing which way is up!!
Oh and when I said I play long hours my /played on my main exceeds.......... lets just say it's my job with massive overtime worked!!

TeraAngelos✭✭✭Feel free to add me in-game (@TeraAngelos) if you need a Craglorn/VR dungeon buddy... I still need to do all of the Craglorn stuff!
Bow/resto staff NB here. Despite being told otherwise my build has worked just fine for me and I see no reason to change. I tend to design my builds around a playstyle that's fun for me, not what's 100% optimal for a given scenario.0 -

Oh I see. And I do agree that some builds, mostly physical, are not good for end game and the fault lies mostly at ZOS but still, it's just disheartening to see certain classes even are not welcome to certain stuff. Or maybe they had too many of that class but it was not the first time I saw this.freespirit wrote: »I guess most Craglorn group quests (although I am not sure as I am not there yet) are quite easy with 2-3 people so no one will be complaining if not everyone is playing like the best players.

I always go to dungeons as a healer not a DD, even in lower level ones where physical ones are okay too simply because I enjoy healing far more than dealing damage.
Anyway, I have yet to see trials for myself before I can comment on them!

You are welcome and my lvl 11-ish alt is in DC too :P And yes, unfortunately it still matters in Crag
I wouldn't mind if they would make shared content starting with Craglorn.

✭✭✭Totally agree about shared content in Craglorn, I mean they twisted the story to allow us to do other Alliance areas after all, so why not Craglorn When people say to me........
