Hello, I'm on my first play through and really taking my time and enjoying every bit of the game. When I complete the main quest I want to also enjoy silver and gold, but I also really want to competitively do PvP, I've done several hours of researching builds, classes, asking questions and I've got it all figured out, all stamina plus food in short. Would grinding for a high veteran level kill the reason and fun of me doing silver and gold. Would it be to easy and have no XP?

    Doing Sliver/Gold at VR8+?
    It'll be a walk in the park. Boss mobs will fall over and play dead when they see you approach.

    You'll still get some XP and you can sell the loot, but there won't be any real challenge.

    You will get skill points for the main quests you see in Caldwells silver and gold journal, they give XP, and you will unlock way shrines which will allow you to get to Thieves Guild heist quest areas.

    I got to VR16 at the beginning of doing Caldwell's Gold. Currently on 3rd zone for Calswell's gold . Its boringly easy. and the loot drops are leveled to the zone and not the player so they are only good for selling.

    Still need to do it for the skill points you get from skyshards and quests.

    I'm not sure about the XP, but you will get skill points for doing the main quests. That was my only motivation for doing them, actually. Mobs will be easy to kill, but I don't think it will ruin the fun, as long as you are interested in the story.

    I don't know about you, but killing lower-level mobs gives me a better idea of how much damage my attacks are doing. Since I don't use any addons, that's actually quite useful.
