    Yeah there are definitely a lot of cool little details all throughout ESO. Kinda sucks that much of the time running quests, point A to point B, you can easily miss a lot.

    There's so many i can think of, skeletons in places you can barely jump to...

    the oddest thing is the community ambassadors started a contest series where you'd make a story for these skeletons found around Tamriel and then promptly forgot all about it like most of the cool ideas they have

    There is a small boat that is glowing blue in Vulkhel Guard just behind the breakwater.

    I have no idea what it symbolizes.

    In Hew's Bane, there are two skeletons entwined with each other — one is that of a human holding a sword that's plunged into the skull of a monstrous sea beast that was the process of eating him. Half the man's skeleton is inside the beast's skeleton.

    That ghost in Barbaric medium armor walking around mammoth skeletons, south-east of Sjeanus. No one seems to know anything about him.

    It's somehow related to ESO:Oblivion, maybe as easter egg: in one of quests you had to follow ghost to the river and remains of ship where he buried his treasure... I played it long time ago so can't really remember the details :/
    Did you mean to say 'nearby stranger'? Because why would anyone befriend a 'strangler'? lol

    It's named strangler mob in Malabal Tor, located at Stranglewatch point of interest :)

    My favorites are people who are in charge of monster and npc placement :smiley: Other developers nerf abilities and take away fun from combat and playstyles, but watching wildlife and npcs is always fun in this game. I often feel bad to kill because of it... Poor little mudcrab - he's hungry and wants to get that fish, but his legs are too short and he can't jump :'(

    2nd one is great, there is like 3 or 4 areas in cyro where you find a different loveletter together with a picknick thing for each of the woman, and you can even though it's not a quest suggest how they deal with him.

    A Starfish around Drakelow, I wrote this April? I found it by accident, I'm still looking for it again. Sadly I'm unable to stumble across it again. I'll still keep looking for this star fish by Drake, I think it's now gone.

    I have seen SOOOO much cool stuff and Easter eggs since playing from day 1, but this is still probably my favorite still...
    The Direnni Tower, also known as the Adamantine Tower, Ada-mantia, Ur-Tower and Tower Zero

    I couldnt believe it when I first found this all those years ago, and still love to stop and view it....
    Perhaps one day we will get to explore it!

    The Direnni Tower, also known as the Adamantine Tower, Ada-mantia, Ur-Tower and Tower Zero
    Wow! That's awesome actually! Where is the best spot to look at this ancient tower?

    I've started to collect such peculiarities myself not long ago. Here what caught my eye so far.

    Creeping death somewhere in Hew's Bane.
    4Rzzc4i.jpg

    Tortured to death somewhere in the Imperial City sewers.

    Two Nix-Oxes in the middle of grooming. Can't kill those, they are so cute.

    Another sleeping guar. A smaller one. So cute.

    Two dead musicians not far from Vos.
    HitCSmP.jpg

    Amazing view of the Skyreach tower. One of my favorite spots in Craglorn.
    6iLg3yP.jpg

    Statue of Azure on the southern shores of Vvardenfell, which most likely is a precursor of the same looking statue, that'll be build near Winterhold by faithful Dunmers in exodus later on.

    There are a couple videos on Youtube that show people exploring the tower and island. As far as I know, the slaughterfish jump bug has since been fixed and you cannot get there anymore.

    There is a building somewhere in AD territory that is full of monkeys, and a few dead bodies (If I remember correctly).

    On another note, in my house, there is a wanted sign for an Orc... well if you go around to the side of the house, there is an Orc skelly in Bloodthorn vines...

    See, there's a certain logic in them being able to walk if they're reanimated by necromancy or whatever. I enjoy my fantasy, but I want it to make at least a little bit of sense, dammit!
