For me:
What do you regret not doing?
- Looting all cabinets, nightstands, wardrobes, desks, chests in houses. Could've gotten an imperial motif
- Looting all dwemer containers when I was in the Ebonheart pact (Inner sea armature). When I reached Alik'r and looted the dwemer ruins there, I got a good 40k from motifs.
- Opening all chests (lockpicking).
- Doing all dolmens. That exp gain is high.
- Deconstructing everything, and learning traits.
- Reading all bookshelves.
What do you regret not doing?
Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

Sithisvoid✭✭✭✭✭Don't listen to a single streamer that says "you can be any race or any class and make it work" Pick a race and class that have bonuses that compliment each other.5 -
Ravici✭✭There's nothing stopping you from going back and doing everything now. Just pick an area (even if it's a small one) and gradually make your way around in those moments between whatever you do now. You don't have to do them all at once, just a bit a day will eventually get it done.
Saying that, I regret not spending longer trying to get into groups for doing the group dungeons. I tried a couple of times but just gave up on them thinking that one day I would find a group of people to do them with. I'm now vet2 and still have never done any of the group dungeons as I gave up on them.Rafe Harwood on heXbox European server0 -

Llafn_Nos✭✭Created some alts for storing all the crafting mats I harvested, I would now be able to make any level armour or weapons for my guild mates.
But mostly for storing quest reward items like the shadow silk gem, I really regret losing it and other items.

^^^So much this...
I roll a Templar too....So the moment someone dies and I'm dealing DPS rather than healing, people get pissed and want me to leave the group....Even though I've never played as a healer and never will.
It only gets worse when I say "We are literally doing the same thing and I'm not dying...You are...What does that tell you? Maybe the issue is your build not my lack of healing..."
EDIT: Forgot to add what I wish I would have spent more time doing...
Crafting honestly...I'm VR 1 almost 2 and I just have done nothing....I keep telling myself I have plenty of gold to have whatever I want made...But where's the fun in that?

@CapnPhoton just wait until they are the pledges, should be easy enough to find a group those days

Beesting✭✭✭✭I should have done pvp on my magica dk, i started doing pvp at vr14, when the dk, vamp and impulse skills were nerfed ten times over and it is still fun
If only i could go back in time and drop 3 standards on n00bs while they are standing in talons in a batswarm ^^
I guess it would be funny for a day, i am not a psycho
Now i am writing this , i bet in a year i will regret not leveling a magica nb for IC, but i honestly can't be bothered at the moment.Edited by Beesting on September 15, 2015 4:57PMBeesting, Bosmer Magica DK, AD EU, crafter

Dreyloch✭✭✭✭✭Regret making my DK a Kajiti (or however ya spell it). I've stuck with him as my main but he's lacking as a race. Didn't think ZoS was so stupid to make the mistake soo many other games made by making race choice actually meaningful in some way. It almost always screws things up for balance and builds."The fear of Death, is often worse than death itself"1 -
NDwarf✭✭✭This: Put 1 skill point in Keen eye in all trade skills. Gather ore/raw materials as you level up. Those mats sell as fast as you can post them in guild store. It's a good way to get gold if you're starting out fresh. I was a broke ass NB until I figured that one out.0 -

-Also I should have kept some strange items as they are no longer in game.

✭If you need to teleport, instead of spending 100ish gold, run to the nearest wayshrine! Teleporting is free at wayshrines and you can literally find one within a quick 30 second run from anywhere. I wasted probably 10k gold before I realized this!0 -

People that think you CANT are deluded. Delusions of grandeur that their carefully selected race makes a difference.

✭✭✭✭✭Trait Research. I started early, then parked my two crafters while I developed a third one and ignored the trait research on them while doing so
Not leveling up 3 horses on each character in the days when we trained each horse
Not joining a guild right away
Not getting a character to max levels early enough to take part in all the cool grinds before they were nerfed
Starting my Breton NB in Heavy Armor and 2 Handed with a Magic Focus (back when 2H was not that good)
Not rolling a Templar until my 4th character
Avoiding Public Dungeons
Tossing that Imperial Motif I found in week one because I was not sure who my crafter was going to be and thinking I would find another one just as easy
Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
