Account wide things?

KimberlyannKitsuragi

I'm trying to find a list of things that are account wide in ESO? I've googled my question and have yet to find a list anywhere. I'm not just talking dyes and stuff I also want to know about the holiday events. If I complete it 100% on one toon, is that account bound? Like will it say somewhere 'oh you completed this in 2016. No need to do it again in 2017' (as an example)

All items in Collections, banked gold, banked TV stones, are all account-wide, as are homes. Bound arms and armour can also be shared account wide - it doesn't matter whether it was bound from a drop, or simply that one character wore/used the item; it can still be shared. Any item that can be banked (so, any crafting resource, for example) can shared. Finally, if you're a Plus member, your crafting bag is shared too.

Achievements are all character specific, therefore NOT shared. With Homestead, you can unlock home ownership achievements by simply visiting a home that you bought with a different character - because it's an achievement it is still, technically, character specific.

It is worth knowing that Writ Voucher - the currency reward from Master Writs - are locked to the character that completed the Master Writ (the world's most annoying concept ever!). Alliance Points are also not bankable, so are therefore character specific.

Hope this helps

Quick edit to the above: DYES.

Dyes are a bit of an anomaly. They are unlocked because of character achievements, but once unlocked they can be used account wide.

I think that's it!

Yeah, as has been said, the achievements from it are character-bound, so if you did the event in 2016, you won't have to do it again in 2017... with -that- character. And of course the special collectibles from those runeboxes are account wide once unlocked. On your alts on the other hand, well, that's a different character, so if you want to, you can complete the event achievements on them again. Or not, since you already did it on your main. Your choice.

I expect I will do the events again with some alts of mine, but... but that much, unless they add something new, since I generally don't care about my alt achievements enough... but each as they choose. Its always an option to do it when you get bored someday around that time...

...and they might add new stuff to find in the reward boxes for yearly event repetitions. Who knows?


As for the rest of the account wide stuff... it has been mentioned. Collections, be it costumes, mounts, pets, appearance options, personalities...homesteads... then dye unlocks... and of course, champion points. Game-wise, the bank is account shared, as is the crafting bag, and guild membership as well as your mailbox and friends list (yes, I have played games where the friends list was character specific as well, and what a pain in the a... uhm... neck that was...).

Non account wide are all achievements and non-champion system character progress, so Mages/Fighters/Thieves/DB guild progress, levels, skill lines, riding training, crafting research and motivs, lorebook collection, quest progress, skyshards, etc. (yeah, duh ) Also, alliance points and master writ vouchers - but the things you can buy with those are again bankable, so its not that big a deal, just minorly annoying.

Son a beach! I wish the mount's abilities are account-wide. I have maxed out abilities for the mount with my first toon. It is a pain in the arse having to wait every freaking 20 hours in order to be able to purchase "one" single training thing for the mount, for each new toon...

So? if you really cannot stand that, well, you know those riding lessions they sell in the crown store...?
But if you still have more brains then money, you will rightfully decline this blatant attempts of ZOS to lure you into spending money for practically nothing really, and just do without a fully maxed horse on your alts until you spent your six months daily training.
But since they DO have the riding lessions, its pretty pointless to whine about it and demand account wide riding... just be happy they don't increase the mount skills to make people despair even more and thus more likely to give in and spend crowns on this...

And yeah, research too takes ages, but since you only ever really need to do it on -one- crafter character... and that one you can spend skill points for more research slots... not that big a deal.

Mostly just collectables and mounts at the moment.

Titles are Character bound as they are usually tied to achievements (also character bound).

Not sure about the home owner titles though. Though since the houses are account bound, it may just unlock the achievements automatically on new characters.
Collections are account bound (but unsure about mementos)

Momento's are account bound, anything that falls into collectables is

Housing titles are character bound, but since housing is account wide, once entered with a separate character (example: the 3mil home) that character gets the achievement, thus gaining the title as well.

I believe each character has to step into the house to unlock the achievement & any titles that go along with it.

Homes are account wide but the achievements are character bound. Even a title for owning it. One character does not get the title until and unless they enter the home.

It is a pain in the arse having to wait every freaking 20 hours in order to be able to purchase "one" single training thing for the mount, for each new toon. Dammit, man! I surely will not spend real money on crowns to purchase training for each toon's mount. Too expensive! Same with researching. My first toon is finally at the last 9th research with the light armor. Everything else are researched. Long freaking arse time! I can't do it with the other new toons.. oh, my lord. Ha ha. Well, this is not so bad, though. Yes, one toon can just be the master crafter, but damn.. the mount, please. Make it account-wide!

Thanks all! I've been toying with the idea of a new toon but knowing I'll have to train my mount over again, I just don't feel like it's worth it. I've completed so much on my current too. I just can't push myself to complete the daggerfall covenant story line. I have no clue why. I want that achievement but completing the line just feels like such a grind

Are holuday events charavter specifics in other words can i do holiday events on more the one character

geng14159

You can do the holiday events on more than one character. If you get all achievements from a holiday event, you can still earn those achievements on another character. And since most holiday events are geared around daily quests, you can even keep doing them once you do get all the achievements.

Keep in mind that any Runeboxes or other collection wide rewards (e.g. costumes, mementos) will work on any character, whether you've done the starter quests or not for that holiday event on that character.

Yes. Horse training is an enormous pain in the rear.

I felt the same but can pinpoint reasons. While I think the quality of DC story is very good, it doesn't impress as much as the other factions.

EP has great nostalgia value in relation to the IPs two big hitters, Morrowind and Skyrim. The base game's Dunmer maps feel more evocative of Morrowind than the Morrowind DLC. And it gives us our first serious look at Argonian culture. So there's lots of great value there.

AD focuses heavily on Bosmer who like Argonians had been a mystery. While the landscapes and cultures are nothing like Morrowind, the Bosmer maps deliver that same sense of being dropped into a rich and wildly alien culture.

DC has some interesting storylines - Azura's spirit wardens and the vampire dude standout in my memory - but both the landscapes and cultures are the very typical stuff we've seen before in other fantasy games. So it feels more repetitive.

sorry for necroing this lol... i thought might as well ask here instead of creating a new thread...

so are the dyes rewards from level 32 account wide as well? what i mean is if an alt use it, then that dye is now account wide?? i know it says in the tooltip character bound, but im really curious if the "unlocked" dye becomes available for other alts...

i googled, but did not find any answer.. so here i am actually being a mag necro lol..

It's a dye stamp for costumes. Single use only. You don't unlock any dyes with it.
