Difference in trainin for grinding?

Aliyavana · July 2016

Hello all, just a question regarding grinding but how much of a difference does a full set give? is all slots invluding weapons worth slotting with training? and what is the best spot to grind?

AzraelKrieg · July 2016

Definitely worth slotting training gear in every slot possible. Green or blue gear will give you considerable gains. Best spots vary by faction and are usually full of people so you won't be alone making the grind harder.

All training is amazing for grinding.
Google is amazing for grind spots.

It's near double xp. Permenent cake for everyone. Make it purple though. It's well worth it. Just slot a level 10 set and grind normal maelstrom it'll last until you hit level 50.

Wait, I'm confused (still fairly new and on my first character I'm doing the quests to learn the game, but are you saying you don't have to upgrade your gear for 40 lvls when you're grinding?

Nope. Normal MA is that easy. Wear full purple training gear and you'll level in there about 5 times per run. It's boring and take about 40 mins. But all the work comes to you. No running endlessly having higher levels clearing mobs you intended to kill. Waiting for dolmen spawns.

And yes I wear a full level 10 set from start to finish. Just grab the power sigils and you're fine. Just make sure you have the right mundus and you're fine. After you've hit max level just go round all the public dungeons and you've got plenty of skill points to suit. If you want another crafter you'll need sky shard though.

the whole point of training gear before this whole thing that it added exp was it accelerated your armour experience.

Now? You would be insane not to use it

For cp it's great combined with enlightenment I made 18 cp in one day a week ago. Even after enlightenment wears off you can get 2/3 cp an hour if you're efficient

. I've made my gear all blue btw

At purple quality a 7 piece armour will give you 70%

+10% if you're Eso+
+50% scrolled/ambrosia'd up

You're getting 130% extra XP and that isn't even optimal.

I have 2 training sets, both willows path for the regeneration across the board and 2 whitestrakes for health

I have 2 heavy 2 light and 3 med

All my armour skills level up fast and my base level is crazy. It took me and a friend 6 hours from 1-50

You missed the weapon out...?? Would have taken you 5hrs 20 mins. Inefficient grind.

Don't forget you can put it on weapons too for another 8%.

I for one am curious, if anyone happens to know, whether this produces a difference between dual-wield or not.

Say, 2 training daggers VS 1 training staff? Does only 1 weapon count, or can a dual-wielding player get more Training Exp added?

Single handed weapons yield half the bonus from the trait because of this.

A purple dagger would give 4%

A purple greatsword would give 8%

One thing zenimax do that brings balance.

I thought Willow's Path was bugged? I don't use it 5/5 for that reason.

Seems fine to me, I get 2k magic regeneration @ lvl 20 with frothgar

nine9six · July 2016

Conflicting reports. Will have to retest...again.

For sure, if that's what you're into. 77% bonus XP is a huge boon for xp grinding be it pre-50 or champion rank. Equip up and get ye to OO.

Appreciate the clarification, I admit I would've been a little sore if best grinding would mean my ranged Sorc had to dual-wield melee weapons X_X Being able to having Training weapons + Training Armor of any type is quite a boon.

I make a blue lv4 set of training gear and weapons, and a lvl16 set (optimally purple but i just use blue) , use either plain drinks or wrothgar health/ regen drink. Also if you level up provisioning and get max connisour passive then use psijic ambrosia, are eso+ and group up with 1 other person and ring of mara them. You could hit lv50 in a couple of hours

5 hours 44 mins is my record.

Takes a spell of good luck though. A friend and I basically had OO to ourselves for the duration.

Just funny that we made toons when we got home from work and had them at max level same day

Trublz · July 2016

Definitely worth getting training gear. Made my first alt last week. Made training gear for him off gate. Upgraded at lvl 16 to all purple. So with ESO plus I was sitting at a 90% xp gain. I even used my pledge of Mara with a friend and managed to get to 100%. Leveled to 50 in about 15 hours of play time. And I was taking it easy
