What do you do at Endgame?

It is a long road to the endgame, to level 50. And even then you still have Cadwell's Silver and Cadwell's Gold. But after those, what do you do?

You now have the chance to actually do anything. No main quest to guide you, you are free.

To serve as a list of tips what one can do at level 50 and to gather new ideas. I wonder what do you all do once you are level 50 and the main quest is finished?

Sometimes I can just look at my main and like "huh...what to do now?"

    Depends on mood, but trials and dungeon is usually it.

    How can I make this live to it's highest individual potential for this role and class. How can I adaptive to given situation. How can lead given situation. How can I learn from given situation. What can I do better next time. This is what is fun for me.

    Definitely explored a bit of other options. Housing end game is fun. Just saying pretty proud when people ask if I bought house with decor intact. Another thing... noticed eso fashion is way more in now. Especially staves...one does not come to a dungeon with boring staves.Turning over and selling things is fun. Takes real effort to find a deal and use it to make profits.

    Well, I've completed each and every non-repeatable quest, gotten all skill points not gained trough AvA rank up (between 27 and 36 left there), leveled and specced crafting, researched all or most traits, done every dungeon on HM except vSP and vFL, five times over, once for every char listed in bold in my signature. I'm in end game for a long time, but now I have almost all my game time available for it so I will use it accordingly. I may join another PvE guild and a PvP one in the near future as I've found 2 trade guilds to suffice for keeping inventory free of surplus and then there's my permanent PvE guild.

    On all characters, I take them through every quest in game, DLC's included, get their crafting levelled, and get all Lorebooks, skyshards, delves, and dolmens.

    I'm actually not a massive fan of group play as I have a personality that really does not do teamwork very well (I won't take instructions and rules off other people, and am very resistant to authority). I will however jump into Cyrodiil to do ranks to Sergeant, get all the delves, dolmens and skyshards. Also, sometimes I will see if I can find two or three others that will do some sewer runs with me to get the skyshards.

    It should be noted I do mine on normal ever since about morrowind.

    The sustain nerfs to the game simply make it far too much of a slog to A, find decent team mates, and B, do content that I could do a few patches ago but am now nerfed to all hell for.

    The game's combat simply isn't fun above normal and questing level. And if I didn't have as much gear readily available through guild shops and my own personal stock, I probably wouldn't be doing those either.

    I adapted just fine to Morrowind patch. In fact I've had the largest progression after that patch dropped:
    - completed vMA on 4 characters between HotR and CWC, and on a 5th just before DB
    - completed all 3 Craglorn trials on hard mode just before CWC
    - completed HotR dungeons on HM just after CWC
    - completed vMoL just after CWC
    and as of today I can complete any of that content on a regular basis, on any of my characters in their main role(s).

    The biggest "inconvenience" was introduction of a new class that delayed my progress somewhat because I had the ambition to fully train a Warden to the same level as my 4 main characters.

    I'm looking forward to:
    - HotR dungeons Challenger
    - DB dungeons HM & Challenger
    - vMoL HM
    - vHoF and HM
    - vAS and +1/+2

    One option you forgot to mention: Quit the Game. Just kidding, kind of, this applies to some of us so hear me out! The crown store gets a lot of love, which sucks because it has taken away the fun of struggling through some hard quest to get a unique reward that someone might ask you about later. I made so many friends in other MMOs by helping them get items I had, that they wanted. Granted, I did read about that neat personality you can get from the newer trial, which is really exciting.

    More importantly, I want to experience new situations I've never encountered before, anywhere, but especially in pvp. All activities, especially pvping in cyrodiil, have well established routines. Above all, PvPing has been the biggest let down for me, and not the combat, the combat is great. It's the environment it occurs in, which isn't what I expected from elder scrolls online - I wanted to interact with the community of players in the open environment. Everything feels, or is staged, contained and instanced.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno

    TL;DR Implement the justice system:
    • Flag based 'justice pvp' resulting in a 'criminal status' for committing crimes within any enemy faction territories.
    • 'Justice crimes' can only be committed in enemy factions territories.
    • 'Justice system consequences' are limited to players with the criminal status that are visiting any enemy faction territories.
    • 'Justice system consequences' don't apply while in territories belonging to your home faction; but bounty hunters from enemy factions can accept a repeatable quest to seek out a 'justice criminal' in that respective criminal's home faction, to then kill them for a reward. However, accepting the bounty quest marks the bounty hunter as with the criminal status in enemy faction territories until the quest is complete. (this could be tied to daily assassination contracts found in dark brotherhood DLC).
    • Only players flagged for 'justice pvp' can accept bounty quests.
    • Only players who have the appropriate bounty quest in their log may attack a player with criminal status.
    • More than one person can accept the same bounty, but when two players with the same bounty are within 45 meters of one another their damage and healing are reduced by 15% against the bounty, while anyone sharing the same bounty quest is within 15 meters of the bounty.
    • The bounty can receive rewards from their own faction for killing bounty hunters from enemy factions.
    • As a consequence of being marked as a criminal, city guards in enemy factions are aggressive toward players with a criminal status.
    • Players with criminal status can 'intimidate' guards by damaging them a certain amount, making that 'criminal' temporarily immune to aggro from that guard.
    • Toggling the 'justice pvp' flag on or off has a 24 hour cool down from when it was most recently changed. but can't be removed until the player clears their bounty.
    • Bounty's can be cleared by visiting a fence in an enemy faction territory.

    I just play and have fun, do whatever. I have characters from lvl 7 to CP lots; there is no "endgame" there is only game
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    "general wandering" is the extent of my gameplay now. I have so many characters (currently 27) that at some point anything I want to do *someone* needs it for this or that reason. Wanna get books and take pics of the locations? New sorc needs those. Need to stock up on mats? *Someone* needs the harvester achieve. Want to get some skyshards? There's a bunch that might need that. Wanna listen to NPCs talk for a while? SO many quests to do!

    Pretty much anything that counts as solo play is what I'm all about at end game. :)
