sorry for a newbie question, but ESO is my first MMO and I see this abbreviation a lot of times in these forums.

    It's another name for nightblades, like "special ops", because they're sneaky

    It stands for, LIZARDS HAVE TAKEN THE OUTERWALLOHGODTHEY'REEATINGTHEPOTATOESRUN.

    Or, you know, in the distant past of 2008 it meant, "quoted for truth.

    That actually makes sense! But the only meaning I was aware of, and the one I meant, was "quit fracking trolling".

    He's the daedric prince of lowly untouchables and menial tasks, and his domain is a black lightless tar pit that sucks in anyone who tries to visit his domain. I can't remember why I put him in my sig, I must have been in a bad mood

    Ok guys be nice. We were all at this point once and had to figure out the abbreviations.

    This seems like a good list of terms that you may run in to in this game.
    http://mmos.com/mmo-terms

    When talking about character skills OP means Over Powered. If talking about your thread it means original post. It could also be talking about you the Original Poster.

    Basically what @stranglehands said. He's the daedric prince of pariahs, outcasts and the taskmaster. His artifact is a Dwarven shield called Spellbreaker that will (in most games) absorb and reflect incoming spells.

    While that is what the letters stand for, what it means is "I Agree". The "Q" is sometimes the only accurate part of that definition. :smile:

    Haha you are right.

    I guess It would be too wordy to say "Quoted because to the Best of my Knowledge this is the Correct Answer and I Agree".

    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    Also, because clicking the agree button is too much work, for too little reward, sometimes. :p

    Pariahs and outcasts are Malacaths thing. Peryite sphere includes tasks, natural order and pestilence.

    Yeah, I was thinking of pariahs as in, specifically, the sick... also probably the daedric prince of sleep deprivation, given the way my brain is working right now.
