Today i had that OMG moment. The time i felt this is the reason why i joined A/ or grouped with B/ or ran X numbers with C....

Then out of a fluke i joined a 6 man guild, and then ran 2 dungeons with random builds...it was the greatest night of fun ive had in years of ESO.

The pure fun, the laughter when my team asked me to trigger the main boss ..../dead :)



Tell us of your moments.

    I came back to the game a month ago after a 2 year break. Yesterday I discovered that staves now count as 2 pieces towards a set. For the last month I've been running 5/5/1 and wondering how all these people manage to squeeze monster sets in without back-baring. All my theorycrafting is for nought, and my mind is unravelling.

    The moment I saw there were doors leading to other provinces while I was in Skyrim zones. The moments I was diacovering new lands never seen before in a TES game. Ofc it was not the same the same feeling I feel with TES sp games while discovering something but those transitions (even if it is a loading screen) it was and is that moment to me.

    When I got the trophy for "DC Explorer" several weeks ago by randomly stumbling into some campground in the Alikr Desert...and also finding Maiq the Liar hanging out there.

    I've been casually playing since launch...and this is the second time I've ran into Maiq. First time being in some tower in Glenumbra.

    Less of a 'OMG' moment and more of a 'OMFG are you serious' moment... When you're tanking veteran frostvault and one 810 dps is spamming crystal frags and the other 810 dps is spamming bow light attack...

    I would at least try to toss you a couple of spears in between spamming elemental weapons🤣

    I’ve only started playing in March of this year. Story wise I started in Elsweyr and killing the dragon there felt pretty awesome as a relative noob to the game at the time. The Orsinium story did not disappoint either. Vvardenfell (Morrowind) was fantastic. Dragonhold was pretty awesome in my book too. Questing through on my main while doing the stories has had some great highlights for me.

    As for actual group content the feeling on completing that first vet trial was pretty good. Completing nCR+3 with a pickup group from 5-6 guilds was pretty cool too because the communication with a group that never played together was really solid and on point.

    Another interesting experience in vet Selenes with a PUG where out healer dropped as we activated the scroll for HM and somehow I managed to heal us through on my stamden. That got me an invite to a progressive trials group and 3 plunder runs with them on vHRC where I handled myself well enough to earn a regular membership with the group.

    For the most part though so long as you aren’t farming and grinding equipment the game is fun to play and has a lot of great moments.

    This. Well actually the first dolmen I saw I ran away from. Now I've recently become Enemy of Coldharbour so I guess there was some character development along the way.

    Was you 6 man in an dungeon?

    Well you had this bug, it was an issue with lag and activating pets making them duplicate and was farming dolmens.

    Assume you left after first trash, I would probably left in normal frostvault

    I tanked nBC2 leveling my fist tank who was 48, found it has two dps checks. First is keeper Indril second is daedrots on last boss, this can be an issue in HM if dps is low and DD don't kill of exec daedrots, as is run to boss and let it die in AoE while healer keep them alive instead of running around in circles.

    A lot of OMG moments over the years, but a recurrent one is when I start the main quest with a new alt, and there's that scene showing Molag Bal before the Coldharbour tutorial starts, it still elicits an OMG! :)

    Selenes HM is interesting as the bear can one shot an tank if not blocking, yes my first run had an fake healer.
    And cool with the progressive trials group invite, and yes that is fast progression, what is your cp?

    I had an OMG weekend back in September 2016:

    - Saturday: beating vDSA for the first time after a month long progression with our group
    - Sunday: beating vMA for the first time after having been stuck on the Stage 6 boss for ages

    The rewards weren't that great (Master Dagger and MA Mace) but all that work we put in as a group in vDSA finally paid off and being able to beat both arenas was an amazing experience :)

    CP540. I started the game as the pandemic hit because I knew I was going to be out of work/contracts for a while. Made 3 toons so far and looking at making a 4th soon. Bought the Greymoor CE. Really enjoying the game so far. Still hundreds of quests to do across all zones. Never played TES before this and had my eyes on ESO for a while. Read too many negative reviews which kept me away so long. I’m here to stay for a while though. Met some good people and having some good times.

    I heard my first dolmen before I saw it, and I thought the sound on my PC was malfunctioning. But, yes, seeing that anchor drop was cool.

    I've gotta say: this weekend (really the past 8 days or so) has been the best times I've had in ESO.

    ESO is my first MMO (I'm here for the Elder Scrolls bit) so it took me a while to get into the whole group content thing. I eventually got over my shyness and joined a guild, then started running dungeons and learning how to play group stuff mainly since I wanted that Beast personality - I'm still a solo RPer at heart, and I really want to have a good werewolf character. I will say, once I started doing dungeons with my guild and learning, I was having loads of fun with it and always wanted to improve. I even started doing trials once I got confident enough.

    Well, last Saturday, I went with my guild through vet Maw of Lorkhaj. It was my first DLC vet trial - we'd tried Kyne's Aegis about two months ago but only made it past the first boss. I didn't know if I'd be able to clear vMoL, especially since I knew I needed to be on point on the twins but we did it. And then the very next day, we cleared vet Asylum Sanctorum as well.

    This week Saturday we went back and did Kyne's Aegis again. The last time was rough, but it was pretty smooth sailing this time and I walked away with my shiny Seaborn Silver skin. I was really happy about that and went to open a 4-pack of Crown Crates - I know I'll need loads of gems for the Sovngarde stuff that's been datamined - and I popped my first ever Radiant Apex mount.

    And to top it all off, today I went through vet March again with a few guildmates, and finally got my first DLC nodeath clear, and the last thing I needed for the Beast personality.

    It's really been a lot of fun doing content that I only dreamed about getting since I stepped out of my comfort zone and started to play with others. And if anyone from my guild is reading this, thanks so much for everything! You've really made it a great place to be.
