What are some things you encountered in your ESO experience that just made you scratch your head in disbelief/

MIne:

1.In Haderus as an EP player I was running solo to Bleakers Outpost from Chalman keep when I encountered about 20 DC all naked dancing just midway to Bleakers who then proceeded to chase me down and kill be with their fists.

2. On my way to vampre shrine I encounter a two nude players male who was doing push-ups on a female on the side of a rock with Pr0nz playing through one of their mics

3.During the Free weekend I decided to play ESO for a few hours then later decided I waned to play another game. SO I go to eject the disc and was met with an unfamiliar sound so I start panicing thinking my xbox broke and call xbox support who then told me the safety pin technique to manually remove the disc. It didnt work so after 30mins of talking I decided to activate my warranty to send it to get repaired. I reach for my disc case and guess what? My disc was in the case I was baffled of my stupidity i still dont know how my xbox played my ESO without the disk


SO what are your [snip] Moments? Im eager to hear em :smiley:

    One time I walked outside Daggerfall and saw a man and a woman naked under a waterfall. Pretty weird.

    It was 3 or 4 weeks after the game launched on pc, I was anxious to hit Cyrodiil to try it out, was near level 50. So, one night I get there and join a raid, was full in 15 minutes and we were already heading to some fort I cant remember which one. So we get there and there was like over 80 players already fighting, from AD, DC and EP. So, we rushed for the fight and it last at least an hour non stop. I was totally hooked, woooah. It was huge!

    Recently I was running around Malabal Tor and went into a bar to complete a quest. A naked Altmer had apparently died and resurrected himself in the middle of the bar, following me around for a bit as I completed the quest and saying flirtatious things before putting on some clothes and having a drink with some nearby Bosmer ladies. He then started advertising his roleplay guild; but I decided to run far, far away :D.

    I was questing in an Ayleid ruin and a khajiit came up to me, asking me if I was scared in these ruins and yelling "WOW YOU'RE TALL!" (This happened on one of my Altmer). Later she went to sleep after we killed a world boss and said something like "Perhaps our paths will cross again, our fate is written in the stars!" and logged out. I haven't seen her since.

    I was travelling along a road in The Rift when someone in zone chat yelled "HEY! GOLDBACK! STOP!". My Altmer's robes had a gold band around the waist at the time, so I was wondering if it was me - I turned around to see an orc charging towards me. He demanded "Hand over your worms and crawlers!". I didn't have any on me, so he shook his fist angrily and ran away. It was the strangest attempted mugging I've ever encountered.

    That's all I can think of right now, but there have been plenty of strange encounters I've had with other players :). Keep them coming!

    I should do stuff like that, it sounds fun. Not the first one though.

    Maybe I'll use generic bandit lines from Skyrim. Bad time to get lost, friend. Hmm...that might be better suited for Cyrodiil, except I'm bad at PvP, but then again, bandits are noobs anyway so dying easily would help fit the roleplay.

    I try and do silly things like that now and again, but usually nothing more than spamming out-of-place emotes which sometimes leads to people asking me what emote it was, or reacting to other peoples' actions. Or that time I accidentally fell off a cliff in Deshaan and fell to my death right on top of some poor unsuspecting player, but that was definitely not intentional!

    I did think of some more silly things (some of them are probably more of a [snip] for other players than me):

    I was in Evermore when the person I was grouped with started attacking some random player. She attacked back and eventually it evolved into a naked dance party in the forge. I made my character cry while watching them and someone else came in, looked between them and me blankly, then continued on with his business before sprinting away.

    I have a tradition of making my vampire play the lute whenever I go afk, and on this one occasion I was standing in the corner of Ravenwatch Castle. When I returned, there was another player running around me looking like they wanted to communicate with me as if I was a new NPC they'd never seen before :D.

    My vampire had just came back from doing dungeons in Coldharbour, where there was no food - so he'd ended up on stage 4 of his condition. I went to Bangkorai to find lunch and some orc came up to me telling me I should get my eyes checked. I replied with "Well it's not my fault there's no food in Coldharbour! I mean, friends.... friends in Coldharbour." and he did some kind of concerned laugh and ran away from me, telling me "People are people, always remember that.". Thank you for the advice, random orc!

    There was a VR16 sitting on a rock watching me fight some daedra which had appeared from thin air, as they tend to do. She waited until I was down to the last one, then bat swarmed them to death and blew me a kiss before jumping off a cliff into the river below.

    There were some people in Vulkhel Guard who set up a 3 piece band outside the temple, and were asking people to dance to their music. 4-5 people joined in and, of course, some of them took their clothes off (it seems to be a recurring theme!). I've seen similar dance parties in other cities, but that was the most recent.

    And that's all I've got for now :).

    Apparently, that is working as intended.

    I stopped playing my DC toon as it was getting to be beyond a joke.

    When you die and ressurrect that your corpse is not standing up, and you can jump and move around with your corpse. It looks really weird but funny at the same time. But inconvenient when it happens in Cyrodil.

    My [snip] moment happened in vet Wayrest Sewers.... first time tanking after getting my new set (somewhat) completed for V16, never tanked a vet pledge before. Was fighting old Uulgarg The Risen... you know with the fear that lays them darn fire circles.... Anyway my stamina bar said it was full, but apparently I couldn't break out of the fear...... the thing sent me through the back door(didn't open it, it just decided to send me through it). 3/4 team wipe and boss reset because I was safely behind a door... It was a interesting night.

    Oh, the famous DK ultimate bug. I've seen a lot of those this summer in Cyrodiil.

    Most recent [snip] moments for me was using ambush at Bleakers and ending up inside. First time it happened for me.
    And getting reported by some noob EP player for ambush spam. :D
