    For AD, I know everyone likes Rwal-ka, but I way prefer Velyn Harbor. Everything's close to each other without the RK lag and all the goons spamming particle effects. I almost regret mentioning it, cause now I'm afraid it's going to get infested with the rest of... you...

    I am partial to Shornhelm, and although I voted 'None of these', I suppose this could have fallen under Riften.

    Shornhelm is laid out nicely with crafting in mind and Riften, overall, is nice for mat farming.

    Rawl'kha for me, very compact with everything near the wayshrine, I'm EP so it's fairly quiet and lag free as well :-)

    Enjoy it while it lasts. Once One Tamriel hits, and all players are in the same instance, so to speak, I think it won't be as quiet or as lag-free.

    Also, all Zone Chats are going to be of the sterling quality of /zone in starter areas. Really looking forward to that little piece of joy.

    How could you not list Shornhelm?!
    If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

    Why would anyone in their right mind answer this question truthfully?

    Do you really want more people coming to said town, to the point you get kicked back to log in screen each time you try to log into a character who is there? Yeah, it may be mostly a console issue but it has been known to happen on PC too.

    Sarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

    I was born with the wrong sign
    In the wrong house
    With the wrong ascendancy
    I took the wrong road
    That led to the wrong tendencies
    I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
    For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
    On the wrong day of the wrong week
    Used the wrong method with the wrong technique

    I will enjoy the off-the-beaten-path cities like Velyn Harbor, Belkarth, and Eastmarch, at least until One Tamriel ruins any peace from the fray and low framerates.

    Velyn Harbor should be safer then the others from One Tamriel since it is protected by a quest line. Now it is a fairly easy and short one but it is better then nothing.

    Eden Root, its all in one big room.... er tree, cant get much better then that.

    Bank , merchant, black smith, Clothing, Woodworking, Enchanting, Alchemy, armor dye all in one room, no zoning, its great,

    Go out the door and theres your wayshrine and skills reset shrines, guild traders, cooking fire. Just down the path is the Undaunted area.

    Your home base should be the one that has the Undaunted Enclave.

    The Undaunted cities typically have the most players.

    Balmora for crafting/Decon before crafting bags.
    Rawl'kha for quick banking.
    Storm hold and Vukhel Guard for quick horse training.
    Mournhold and Belkarth for quick vendoring.

    If it had a stable, Balmora would be perfect.

    Bleakrock is pretty quiet if you're DC ... even if there's no Outlaws Refuge there. More compact than Rawl'kha ...

    I think I mis-understood I was thinking wear would I want a home. I like the Breton cities as they feel more like cities, all the pact cities feel like the could house an extended family as long as people didn't mind sharing a room.
