ESO-Database.com - The character and guild database

Keldor · June 2015

I'm proud to announce that the ESO-Database is now available in English!

I've started the development of the ESO-Database 6 months ago for the German ESO community. After some beta testing and a Lot of bug fixes, it was time to translate the project into English. After a month of hard work and translating all the stuff into English, it's now time to present the ESO-Database to you.

What is ESO-Database?
ESO-Database is a Character and Guild-Database. Everyone can join the community to transfer his Character and Guild-data. The data will be collected through our ESO-Add on and automatically transferred with the ESO-Database.com Client. The client also keeps the addon up to date.

Guild leader can use the guild list to embedded the member list to their homepage.

Each character, which is transferred with our add on, has his own statistic about killed NPC, healing done and received, quest done and much more.

Key Features of the ESO-Database

Character based statistics
Guild based statistics
Ratios about Classes, Races, Alliances and Megaservers
Signature maker for characters
Tradeskill overview for every character
Bounty Calculator
You decide which data of your character is public
Total account statistics including total playtime, gold, damage done and much more (only visible for your account)
Upload a character portrait (shown on signature images and on your characters profile)
Upload character and guild images

Note: I'm not a native English speaker! If you find some translation mistakes on the website, please contact me so I can fix them. You can send feedback by using this contact form.

The wishlist at the moment is very long ^^

But if you have suggestions, it's the fastest way to use the contact formular in the eso-database.com and Keldor can answer directly.

I think this is awesome, but it also makes me mad at ZOS. If they would just provide the proper API hooks, developers wouldn't have to jump through hoops to make such a uesful site.

Hi,

I've already a huuugeee ToDo list with a lot of feature requests from the German ESO community.
Let me show you guys whats the plan for the next updates of the ESO-Database.

Toplists (Characters with the most Champion Points, NPC kills last day, week, month and so on)
Listing of Achievements for every character
Charts for the character statistics (Gold earned for example)
Signature images for guilds
Champion/XP bars on signature images for characters
Total statistics for all characters in the database
Some more statistical values

if you have any other ideas please let me know

"Character and Guild data"

Does that mean guilds can upload their players information without their permission? What if someone does NOT want to be in some fans database?

No, the guild page shows only characters/players who have already uploaded their own character/guild data.
If you want that all your guild members show up in the list for example, they have to add their character data to the ESO-Database first.

Okay, Awesome! Thank-you

Nestor · June 2015

Nice work on this. Thank you. I have a few questions to ask:

1. On compiling the stats for the Guild members regarding Alliance Faction, do you count all the characters a Guild Member has or just the one that is on the list (from the last log out). Most people in the main Guild I am in have characters in all the Alliances.
2. How often are some of the stats updated, such as gold earned and achievement points? Those can go up quite dramatically in a few days depending on the player.

OK, so just two questions. But the first one is the more important one to me as one question I get asked most when people are interested in joining is what is the faction distribution for the guild.

1) All the characters of a player are counted for this stats because technical is the player with all his characters in a guild.
But you're right it could be distort the stats, you can see the same behavior on the characters per class chart here, every peace have around 50 percent because the most players have a character of every class.

2) If you use the client, the data will be uploaded in background every time you log out a character or close the game. On the server side the script runs every 2 minutes. Depending on amount of transferred data it could take up to 5 minutes until the data get updated.

Will there be a Mac compatible version?

Currently I've no plans for a Mac version because I'm not an apple developer. If someone would create an app for Mac I could provide information for the ESODB API and the upload mechanics.

I'm not sure but I think the Linux script could also run on a Mac. The Linux script is available on the data info page (at the bottom of the page)

rmarsh936 · June 2015

ok, thanks, I'll check that out soon.

RazzPitazz · June 2015

Now that I have used the site and the app I must say I am thoroughly impressed with this project. One downer; your sweet signatures can't be used on the ESO forums lol.
Something for your to-do list maybe;
Perhaps at some point you may be able to flesh out crafting information such as motifs and traits learned. I know Craft Shop has this one done nicely, would be great to see who in our guilds can craft that sweet armor we want.
Are articles and/or blogs anything you Are considering or will the site strictly be a database?

Keldor · June 2015

Hi @rajaniemiorama_ESO,

thank you!

I have already plans to create a guild website plug-in for Crafters similar to the existing guild roster plug-in available on ESO-Database. The plan is to use the overview from the Screenshot attached and put labels to every trait in the table with information about how many and which guild members can craft items with this trait.
I also want to add a new tab "Crafting" to the guild page.

I have also plans to enable features to having more user interaction and user generated content. The first step will be a comment function and the ability to add descriptions to uploaded images.

Keldor · June 2015

Hi all,

I've release a small Update for the englisch signature images. If you have selected the playtime as a value of the signature image, the time units were still displayed in german. This issue has been fixed now.

Thanks for reporting all this little bugs

If you found some bugs in the ESO-Database or the the ESO-Database AddOn, please report them in this thread or by using the contact form. Thanks!

Seconded. It boggles the mind that there isn't a decent API system.

Keldor · June 2015

I've another small update today for the ESO-Database AddOn.

From now on (Version 2.0.2 of the AddOn) the difficulty level of locks will be tracked by the lock picking statistics.
These statistics will be available soon on the characters statistics page.

The update will automatically installed by the ESO-Database Client, if you are not using the client you have to download the newest version of the AddOn on this page:
