So what would happen if....

I'm wondering what would happen if I level a character and as I did I completed all the starter areas, the rotated and completed all the factions main story lines as I level to 50. Would I then hit level 50 complete cold harbour and immediately complete gold and silver? Would I throw the game for a loop?

madeeh91rwb17_ESO✭✭✭✭Starting from strosmkai from 0, I reached cp160 in alik'r.
Hadn't even done a single quest from any other faction.
But yes I had completed coldharbor as well. Won't recommend entering coldharbor until you finish bankorai. For lorefriendly reasonsEdited by madeeh91rwb17_ESO on January 23, 2017 3:09PM0 -

✭Unless you skip all zone quests and only do the main faction quests, there is no way you'll only be level 50 after completing all three. XD The content of one faction pretty much takes you 1-50 all by itself.
While they have stated it is an option to do the quests in any order (including all three factions before end-game, completing Cadwell's retroactively), I'd be careful. Doing quests out of order can lead to the occasional bug. It wouldn't so much throw the game for a loop as open up a few cracks you might fall into. At least that's been my rather interesting experience since One Tamriel opened up the map.Living vicariously through my characters.
My Girls:"If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"
Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

Night_Wolf2112✭✭✭✭Well, speaking from my own personal experience on one of my characters....
I completed Main AD story line, then did all 3 alliances starting island/zones, then did Coldharbor. After that, I picked up Caldwell's Silver, completed the EP Story line... and DID NOT get completion credit for Silver! I have sent a ticket to ZoS but that was 3 weeks ago and still have not gotten any response. So it looks like a bad idea to do things out of order.0 -
VileDeeds77✭✭✭So I have an AD character at level 13 and so far I have only completed quests in Stonefalls but I plan to go back and do one starting area, then the next, then the third. From there I will finish Stonefalls, then probably Auridon, the Glenumbra, and back to Deshaan, and so on mostly doing the main quests but will do some side quests here and there, maybe some public dungeons, with a smattering of BWB thrown in. At least this is my plan, but if there will be complications I might need to alter the plan to avoid issues.0

Can we get word from someone at ZOS if they are aware of this and if they plan to make this possible?

✭✭✭✭✭If you're doing the content for the other alliances before completing the main story, is there then any reason to do Cadwells? I can't see the point, personally. If it's from a completionist point of view then it's probably better to do everything in the intended order, similarly if it's for reward/achievement reasons.0 -

Did you complete the main story and all of coldharbor? If not that's why u didn't get credit as it's a requirement. You'd get credit once doing so for all the items done if the Caldwell quest log is fulfilled.-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf

VileDeeds77✭✭✭It's not that I did but I plan to, as mentioned above someone else has done something similar and upon completing cold harbour they did not get credit for silver completion.
I was wondering if, because of one Tamriel I can do any content in any order, can I not quest through all three factions main stories and basically level and grind out silver and gold at the same time. I have not done this yet I'm just wondering if it is possible, or if it was intended to be possible.0 -

You can do any order but there's no benefit to grinding silver or gold compared to any other place.
Everything is the same level. Grind anywhere or anything.
Some ppl chose to grind the starter areas while other chose this spot or another as well as just questing.Edited by NewBlacksmurf on January 23, 2017 7:39PM-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf
