Eso plus and switching from EU to NA

kinguardian

Hi Guys :-)

I was curious how the community on the NA server is and also I like to start from the very beginning again.

But what do I take with me? I have eso plus does that also count on the NA server? And stuff that I bought in the crownstore like mounts and outfits banker etc are they also there on the NA server or is that all gone?

And last question ,is it possible to start in the coldharbour chapter? I do not like starting in the new chapters I prefer the coldharbour one. Is there a way I can do this

ESO plus works for your entire account, i.e. you'll also have it on the NA server. What you won't have is everything you bought in the crown store. Things you buy from outside the game, e.g. on Steam or at the ESO website are available on both servers. That means crowns are there for EU and NA, also things like the starter pack and the crates you get for watching twitch streams when drops are enabled, the special drops, too, of course.

yes, eso+ on both accounts, the rest like two completely different players.

This also means:
rewards from twitch for example (oroborus crates) you will get on both, with different content.
But you must buy everything you need from crownstore again, like outfits, houses, mounts.

If you want to start a little quicker, some gold can help.
So you can buy inventory upgrades at the pack-merchant etc.

If you have good contacts like guilds or a facebook group you can try to find someone in a similar situation for a gold exchange.

So you give the NA player 500k on EU, and he gives you, the richer EU player 500k on NA in return.

Aaah super thanks for the info.

I am looking forward to this I am happy that eso plus counts on both servers.

I can recommend to try it.

I'm on xbox, cp1200 on EU, cp670 on NA.

16 characters on each server.

EU has maybe just 1/5 of amount of players compared to NA, so playstyle differs massively.

I can no longer do worldboss dailies on EU, as I had to solo most of them due to lack of players.

On NA, I usually will have a companion or group within 10 minutes, so these fights become a breeze.

And I learned from EU mistakes, avoid them on NA. Had invested too much gold on EU for furniture blueprints to sell furniture. There are many that simply do not sell, so on NA I just bought maybe 1/10 compared to EU and still have good sales.

Avoiding to waste time with trial&error also allows me to focus more on quests to get achievements like the ability to buy houses like Goronir estate (Grahtwood adventurer), and to hunt skyshards.
So my second account feels more intense concerning experiencing the lore of the game.

I often just login to EU now to update the slots in guildstores and farm some mats, then switch to the newer NA again to really "play".

As was said before, everything you bought ingame with crowns, you won't have on the other server. Everything you bought outside the game, meaning chapters and codes won through giveaways as well as the crown crates received from watching streams will transfer over. ESO+ is active on both accounts.

Also note that your crown balance is shared across both servers, meaning that if you spend 3000 crowns on EU, 3000 crowns will be subtracted from your balance on NA without you getting anything for it!

Start playing in a different server means start from scratch.
Across servers, your ESO+ is available and your unspent crowns.
Everything purchased (CS and/or gifting) is bound to server.

PS - Since drops (ESO n Twitch) are related to account, you get crates on both servers.

All depends on the rngesus

Also your crown gems won't travel with you - I have accounts on both PC megaservers, and the gems aren't the same even though the crowns are.

That is a bit naughty of them.

Sylvermynx

It is - because I have 400 gems on my main account NA, and would rather have them on EU.

also. I skimmed through and didn't see it mentioned (sorry if it was said and I missed it)

you cannot start in Coldharbour chapter if you already have expansions on your account. your only option is to make it through whatever tutorial it makes you do on a first character and then head directly to the starting area for the alliance you chose, to do the Benefactor quest... which takes you into original Coldharbour tutorial.
