I finished Cadwell silver and gold, and I'm not sure what to do next... if go to Craglorn or go to the new area Orsinium...

Right now I'm in Craglorn, I just started one quest and the mobs seems pretty difficult.. like solo is very hard... I don't have friends I play solo. But with my own crafted gear, brawler and the correct skills I manage to kill them, let's see if it will be always like this or I will not be able to do everything.

What do you suggest me to do to lvl to VR16? makes sense still go Craglorn or with the last DLC better jump this area and go to the new one?

Which path do you suggest me to go to be in the right way?

    Orsinium is the one you want for soloing for sure, after doing Silver and Gold it is amazing as you get to see all the characters from those zones again :)

    Craglorn on the other hand was designed for 3-4 player groups to quest in, so is not solo friendly. It is entirely possible to solo a lot of it, but I'd recommend having a setup just for it. There are some very, very difficult parts of it...
    I have departed into the great unknown that is outside the game and the forums, and wish you well in your Tamriel adventures!

    I completed every zone in silver and gold 100% with all side-quests and got all the way to VR16, might not be your cup of tea but it worked for me. I may be a bit of a completionist :p.

    Since you're solo-oriented I'd go with Orsinium over Craglorn for sure. And by the time you've finished that, the Thieves Guild DLC will probably be on the horizon so you can continue solo-adventuring and leveling up that way.

    Orsinium is the place to go. There usually is quite a few players if you run across a rough boss and need help.It's a challenge sometimes.But always fun.

    Go back and finish all the Quests you skipped in each zone.

    I purposefully went and grabbed every Quest i could find on my Main (Sorcerer) when he went through Silver and Gold, and he finished Reaper's March at 3/4 of the way through VR15.

    So, go back and Quest some more. It really helps with the leveling.

    Then hit Orsinium, Cyrodiil, Craglorn, etc.

    There's still plenty for you to do, OP.

    You will not be able to do all content in craglorn, or wrothgar or most end game stuff alone.

    Good luck doin craglorn quests solo, its designed for 4 so most of em you cant even advance solo,
    The whole map is designed for group play although If u were Good u could solo the delves, that was a long time ago though, since I did that, and alot has changed class balance wise, dunno If its still the case

    You have plenty of skill points by endgame, so don't worry about spending them on crafting if you're concerned about running out. If it's the leveling that's bothering you just deconstruct everything you find, and get some intricate pieces if you can to speed it up. I have 3 characters and I just do this bit by bit as I go with all of them.

    If you're looking for specific materials, search the zone which corresponds with the material's level range. By the way I think you'll appreciate Orsinium's leveling system when you get to VR16 and join the ancestor silk/rubedo leather/rubedite ore harvesting club!

    Really.... You are going to complain about how it scales? It allows you a lower level person to enter newer areas and complete quests and view the area... O lets just let a lvl 1 enter Wrothgar and farm vr 16 from the start and make money selling them... I think not.... I mean I just rolled my second char yesterday and the first mission I got was enter Wrothgar.... It would be completly unfair for noobs entering the game to be able to roll a toon and then go and farm vr 16 from day one when others like me fought hard to lvl all our crafting to 50 and obtain vr 16 status without the option...

    Craglorn is a group place. you can solo mobs outside but all dungeons are group. I was only able to solo one without dying. I am needing to get a group to run through them. That is really the last thing I have to do on original game.

    Or; you could not jump the gun and realize that if you work on Crafting Skills with all of your characters, then the Hirelings give you that much more in the mail.

    You can then decon/make items on all of your characters (because, really, switching from avatar to avatar just to make a sword is a pain in the buttocks).

    If you're playing the game enough to have multiple Alts, then pumping some extra Skill points into the crafting skills shouldn't be an issue.

    Why this is biting you in the butt so hard? I have no idea...

    Decon all the drops you get from enemies in Orsinium. That will give you level-appropriate mats for your character regardless of points spent in crafting. Imperial City enemies also drop level-appropriate gear you can decon.

    Now you have 2 choices:

    1. Try PvP but i wouldn't do it because you might throw your computer out of the window due to lag
    2. Grind in Sewers.

    Just go with your crafter to Wrothgar for a week or two to collect materials, can't be that hard to do. As for Craglorn: wait to go there until V16. It's a lot easier to clear the delves then. Some delve-bosses still needs a group to take down, though.
    And Psijic Ambrosia/XP scroll is your good friend on the way to max level.

    Crafting alts don't really seem to work in this game anymore if the zones continue the same way with mats dropping according to your crafting skill. Right I know I have one character who is a 50 wood, blacksmith, clothing and provision with all the points spent except the ones to make materials glow on the ground, and a 30'e enchanting which I'm still working on. I have another alt I don't play a lot who is a max alchemist. Im sure eventually I can switch my main into alchemy too, every time a DLC hits we seem to be getting a ton of skill points and even in my current build I think I have 4 weapon lines maxed out, I could easily lose one of those if my want to respect and have points for alchemy. Plus I still have like 25 unused skill points ATM.

    Anyways, everytime I level an alt I always deconstruct my loot because I'd rather get the tempers and materials then a few gold at the vendor. Every high level character my account is 50 woodworker, blacksmith and clothing due to this. Provisioning can literally be brought from level 1-50 in about 10-15 minutes, just get a few appropriate level green recipies and materials you need. Alchemey too if you have the mats, just a 10 minute process. Enchanting is really the only tough one to level.

    Either way, raw materials ofa ny level still sell for a lot of gold. Iron ore is liks 45 gold each I think. If you don't want to craft you can still harvest the level 1 raw mats, sell them to fund your higher level gear, plus whatever you decon in your loot. This will also level your crafting if you ever choose to craft on your main.

    Yes/no. This applies to nodes and rubedo drops. But if you are <V15 and opening chests and killing mobs, the decon crap you get will be at your actual character level, not your crafting level.

    I find this annoying. My V14 gets voidsteel and shadowcloth decon crap, but I walk outside and pick up ancestor silk. :/

    Cyrodiil daily quests also give a decent amount of xp for you to level up.
