I have seen a certain somebody on PS4 link in chat Gold CP160 BoE Willpower Rings, along with Blue-quality Maelstrom Staves.

It is definitely possible, but I cannot figure out how to do it :/

Should I use "/say" and then type something strange in? Idk....

Help me out someone!

    It's not exactly "user friendly", but this page describes the item link format:

    http://wiki.esoui.com/ZO_LinkHandler_CreateLink#ITEM_LINK_TYPE

    Edit: For example, try this in chat: |H1:item:44715:30:40:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1441792|h|h

    Ohhh..... thanks! I will try this when I login to ESO today. Would I use "/say" to type this? (does it even matter)
    You can use it in any chat channel, so yes, /say, /zone, /g1, etc.

    Just to add to this... You can search for item links HERE

    Every link you get from that will start with |H0... and will link the item without the [ ] brackets. If you change that to |H1... it will show an item how you would normally link it.

    For example a CP160 legendary Necklace of Willpower searched from the link I provided will give the following result
    |H0:item:69278:364:50:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h
    Typing that in will give this look

    Now if you replace that H0 with an H1 as shown...
    |H1:item:69278:364:50:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h
    You will end up getting this, which is exactly how it would look if you were linking it from your inventory.

    You can use /say if you want to test it out before doing it in zone group or guild chat. Or you can whisper yourself if you prefer by typing 
    /w yourcharactername,
    the comma is necessary.

    Don't be using this for evil purposes.

    You can only link items you do have, by pressing triangle on the item and then link in chat

    ¸I have never done this, but I understand that you would be able to link items you don't have if you understand the format in which the links are written, then find out the "item number" tag of the item you would like to link.

    No. You can link items you do not have, even if they are utterly unobtainable. It is possible.

    I am just unsure how to do it. That's why I created this thread :neutral:

    That is for linking items you do have. I want to know how to link items you don't have.

    These are my thoughts as well. there is likely a really long and strange Item ID# or something you have to type in.

    @Runs So I tried this out and I keep on getting UI errors. Typed it in exactly as you told me too :/

    I've seen BoE C160 Gold Willpower linked in console chat before (meaning it can be done) but something is apparently incorrect in my typing. Any ideas?

    :( No clue it's working on PC, in Gamepads mode with the half screen console. Trying it wrong wrong isn't giving me UI errors, it's just showing as what I typed instead of a link. Maybe there's some slight difference in console version. :(
