Heeey fellow ESO travellers. 
Over the last weeks/months I have been ill in hospital and my poor old laptop died.
So I have been waiting for my new conputer to be build. Which was problematic because of trouble getting the parts.
Fingers crossed they trie to get it all done this week.
But I would like an update from the players what have I missed?
Did you get any good things in crownstore or did ZOS give something cool.
Also how is the new chapter? I love the trailer and I bought the chapter early so I could play it early but
Tell me your experiences what you like and the first thing I should do when I am back online.
Let's make a fun post out of this.

chattygeekHD✭✭✭Hey kinguardian!
I haven't been able to play at all either the last few weeks - so I'm with you on being behind (I'm actually several years behind to be truthful!)
Hope everything went well in hospital and the new computer makes it all worth the wait!

- Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
- Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
- Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar/arcanist will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).

✭✭Sorry about your hospital stay and my condolences about your laptop.
I enjoyed High Isle, though the card game not so much. The new zone is beautiful and I really liked its naval focus (it was thrilling to visit a huge shipyard). The main story is quite good and the villain sounds like Darth Vader. There are some interesting side quests, which bring back some old characters, including Rigurt and Stibbons. The new big city, Gonfalon Bay, is gorgeous and it's refreshing to see Breton architecture that isn't dull. Oh, and devs introduced hermit crabs.
I don't know what your play style is, but upon returning after a long time away, I'd just take a deep breath and go out to explore!Imperial DK and Necro tank. PC/NA

✭✭✭✭✭Hi there! Sorry you've had to deal with hospital stay and dead laptop, but happy to see you post again.
Love High Isle, not thrilled about companions or card game (kind of not my things) and Amenos is.... really lovely in a very wild way. Truly love the bird houses and the hermit crabs! Those are touches that make things more "real" for me. Also hunting the beaches for the giant clams (um - why am I even doing that? I haven't a clue, but I click on anything harvestable so....)______________________________________________________

kinguardian✭✭✭✭@Carcamongus: That sounds great. I cant wait to explore. I love Riggurt so am happy he is back.
I play mostly solo pve and now and then with a guild.
@TaSheen: I am a sucker for picking up everything that's take-able and I can never stop thieving either
I am not a card game person myself but eh there is o uh cool stuff in this game I find something else to do
@Artim_X
@chattygeekHD I am a lot in and out of the hospital which is very frustrating but thanks to this game which distracts me it is a lot easier to get mind concentrating on something else.
My computer guy phoned and says that he hopes the pc is ready on friday.
Fingers crossed 🤞4 -
kinguardian✭✭✭✭Got a message that my pc would be ready today so I went to pick it up and everything closed.
Phoned the guy and there was a problem with the motherboard so now waiting on the new one.
Fingers crossed guys2
