I kind of have a hard time figuring out how the MG is "horrific" to grind. I wasn't even going to mess with it, but I still pick up and read all the books my characters run across. Then I decided to go ahead with both MG and FG on both account mains. By the time I joined the MG, I was already level 7 on both mains just on the books they'd already read. It took almost no time to do the quests, then read the rest of the books to get to max level.

FG on the other hand.... I HATE just killing things to level something like that - so FG is still sitting there at about level 3 on one and level 5 on the other (which finished the quests up for her of course so I've got attunables from Earth Forge in one of her houses so the other one - who may never finish the quests - can do the Master Writs she gets for those sets).

I always assume people complaining about Mages guild are on console as it is pretty easy to read books while collecting skyshards on alts with addons.

? I don't get what you mean. No matter where you go in the world, there's books just laying around. Read them, and eventually, a character is going to have levels in MG if they choose to go there. Addons have nothing to do with it.

Addons allow you to get it done in an afternoon though, which is what you want if you've leveled MG 18x times already.

The Guild Wars way was to let you load skills from one other class, but without the numerical benefits of that class. So utility skills were useful, but damage/healing skills almost never were.

For example, if I solo farmed on my Elementalist against enemies with a lot of knockdown, I might equip the Warrior skill that that gave Guild Wars' version of immovability.

In ESO, an equivalent would be taking Shadowy Disguise and/or MIrage on a non-Nightblade.

Well, it just doesn't bother me to do it without addons. I'm not a "rush everyone to max level" person. I have plenty of time, and I just wander the world on whichever one of my 56 characters pokes me to play her or him at a given time.
