    How's it going?
    -Great actually, took me over three days but now all my 20 characters have all 6 companions unlocked. My two new arcanists have been created, and are a work in progress. Haven't encountered any bugs or problems so far, very smooth launch.
    Are you exploring, leveling or something else?
    -Right now I am only doing the new zone's side quests with my DPS arcanist (listening to all dialog). So basically exploring, before starting the main quest. My other arcanist is a tank, but does random normal dungeons ( feels awful, fix speedrunning ZOS! ). Both those new characters are level 20+, not in a hurry to level them. Same with the new companions, my sharp made it to level 12 just from unlocking all the other companions, and is now slowly being leveled.
    What's your favorite part so far?
    -Love the new zones and how they look. Loved the quests I've done so far as well, though I am puzzled why there is a daily that requires a group(which I didn't do) and so much effort. But my best point about this expansion, is the new companions. I just love companions!

    PS: Due to unlocking the new companions, all my characters also instantly have the new public dungeons completed. (minus the collect xx items for this achievement/collectible)

    The fishing is good in Apocrypha, and I really enjoyed getting the Pulled From The Depths achievement. Be sure and swim out too far for another achievement. (No spoilers!)

    The Nymics are pretty fun, and the puzzles are somewhat challenging. They can be soloed if you are good and run appropriate builds. Take advantage of the buffs (think sigils in MA.) But they are on a timer that doesn't show up in character effects, so be quick. Be sure to activate the hidden bosses, who have their own loot chests.

    What I don't like about the Nymics is the grind for the keys to get in. Totally unreasonable to have to kill 5 different wandering bosses with 1.8 million HP for a single ichor (if you're unlucky and don't get multiples.) The rewards are absolutely not worth the time invested, when it's possible to only get some pieces of the trash zone sets for spending an hour+ of time. You can get purple plans and purple companion gear, but there's no guarantee. And the reward coffers for the dailies are the worst I've ever seen. Sometimes just a single blue piece of the awful zone sets, and nothing else.

    I haven't gotten Sharp yet, but Azandar is very worthwhile. He can buff your damage, and find you some pretty valuable things.

    Aside from the bugs introduced with the reveal, the new zones are pretty nice. And thank the Divines that there aren't elk roaming around Morrowind, like they had at the start of the PTS.

    - Going off of that, if it is interconnected where would it be taking place? are we going to get the northern Telvanni Peninsula next? I doubt players would enjoy yet a third round of Dunmer content, could a place like Hammerfell involve a Daedric Prince like Peryite in anyway?

    The Chapter 1-2 arc only went to Summerset because of a property of the Crystal Tower that was introduced in Chapter 2. I don't know how Necrom ends, but I should think that could be done just about anywhere. And from what I've seen of Necrom's main quest, all that connects it to Morrowind, let alone the eastern regions is:
    1. A Telvanni wizard who was working with the daedric conspiracy for her own worldly ends.
    2. A maguffin that was kept in the necropolis.
