    iv been playing since beta last nov and iv never had a vet lvl not this is my falt I get board of my toons easy and I delete em. iv made new one's took brakes and played other games but I really want to play eso I just get board of the chars im playing ATM(At the moment). so I ask what do yall do to keep playing any suggestions?

    I play the forums :) I find people like you who cannot spell and use acronyms at the same time while spelling them out which negates the use of the acronym in the first place. You make me laugh and that's where I find enjoyment...

    Achievements, alt leveling and guild activities keep me preoccupied.

    As it stands I have hundreds of hours worth of achievements to do on the main (the notion of repeating said achievements on alts makes me cringe) and 3 alts to grind to rank 12 (a few weeks worth of work). If I do get bored it's a matter of shaking things up or simply taking a break. The game itself is still an enjoyable experience for me, if you find yourself constantly bored perhaps a hiatus might be required.

    Boredom is a sign of a weak mind and lack of commitment.

    I have never been bored in my life. There is so much to learn and do, both in this game and out in the real world.
    FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.
    FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.
    FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.
    FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.
    FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.
    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.

    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    I've also been playing since Beta/Early release. I've got a VR7 Sorc and a VR2 NB, among other alts. I can't say that i don't get bored often, it happens. I stayed away from PVP forever. Lately I've been spending an hour or two in Cyrodiil every other night while grinding out my last faction in Caldwels Gold. It definitely helps break the monotony of the VR grind, you get some XP, maybe some achievements. This is whats helping me.

    I've yet to reach VR12 on any character, and if Stick and Robe trials are what i have to look forward to I can continue to take my time :)

    I would like more "casual" group content, like dungeons. I love dungeon crawling, even repeating them for rewards. In fact, in Everquest waaay back in the day, they had an expansion called "Lost Dungeons of Norrath" maaaan, if my EQ addiction wasn't bad enough, that killed me. Lots of random dungeons and goals with bosses, loot, currency, augments (enchants). I miss that :) Something similar would be amazing here.

    maybe if you didnt delete your toons you wouldnt be bored because you could always play a different playstyle w/e you wanted? Why would anyone level up a toon and then delete it?

    Force weapon swap to have priority over EVERYTHING. Close enough.
    Make stamina builds even with magicka builds.
    Disable abilities while holding block.
    Give us a REASON to do dungeons more than once.
    Remove PVP AoE CAP. It is ruining Cyrodiil.
    Fix/Remove Forward Camps. They are ruining Cyrodiil.
    Impenetrability needs to REDUCE CRIT DAMAGE. Not negate entire builds.
    Werewolf is not equal to Vamps/Bats.

    PvP never gets boring for me. Playing against other humans always keeps it interesting.

    I have 3 toons I play all the time, 2 crafters and one pure quester. If I can't find a place to explore or a quest to do, or something to make, I pop open the Journal and look at the Achievements Tab. I don't chase Achievements, and certainly am not worried about any achievements I don't have. However it does give me some ideas about things to do in the game. For instance, I did not know that hunting certain types of things would give an Achievement, so now I go out on Safaris and hunt down certain types of critters. I can RP along the way too. It's not for the Achievement per say, it's just an idea for something to do.

    I used to get this thing; a tick in the back of my mind telling me to re-roll. I'd see a movie with Samurai, watch a series with Vikings or check out a movie where the female lead is inspiring and instantly want to model a new character around them.

    Either that or I'd just see someone in-game who looks awesome, and suddenly my efforts at character creation would be put to shame and I'd start all over.

    All of that until I finally made a character I was happy with; and most importantly, a versatile one.

    He started out as a dual wielder, then switched to a sword and board. Now days he's using a bow and two handed axe. I've kept all of the skills in weapons and armor, and all three trees of my classes; so now he's an all around weapon master.

    What I'd suggest is this; make a character you're happy with, then don't be afraid to switch it up, and don't worry about gimping yourself. Try out new builds and experiment, in PvE and PvP.

    You should never get bored with this game, ever. There are far too many things to do, especially if you are a completionist.

    There are something like 500 quests. You can get each skill line to 50, level up each and every skill and morph. Try out different classes and races. Level up all crafting skills and learn every trait.

    There's always something to do.

    There are actually something like 1000+ quests actually.

    In the last week I levelled 4 of my alts to provisioning Lv50 (didn't buy a single provisioning mat either, that was my goal)

    ;)

    You can buy provisioning materials? Who knew?

    Sweetie, can you show us on the doll where the bad man from Blizzard touched you?
