    Forgot to change to the Special Crafting Gear tab (Night's Mother at the time) before crafting 10 pieces of vet 16 gear. Yeah. I cried a little.

    Yeah done something like that, I upgraded a dagger and a bow to legendary only to realize I had crafted them as VR15 instead :s

    Was trying to catch the Ocean fish in Cyrodiil, saw a fishing hole next to a rock just off shore, so tried to reach it.
    Died to slaughterfish and spent the next 10 minutes cursing while riding back from the DC gate...

    I have multiple gold hakeijo enchanted pieces of armour sitting in my bank. Every time I gold them, within the week I realise there's a better set.

    First set I did this too I deconstructed. Then realised many months later that it would be useful for certain boss fights. :neutral: So now I keep them #lessonlearnt

    This is a lesson I have learned well. Don't gold out anything. Not worth it when new stuff comes along or the gear cap is increased

    Made a gold staff for a friend and then equipped it instead of enchanting it. Where is the pop up warning!

    Spent a 100k on a mephala helm then promptly deconstructed it.

    2.5 years in I learned there are lines around the enemy when your should block....

    Hahaha. I know the feeling. I took literally a whole year to understand how interrupting the enemy works. I play on PS4 and the only thing it says is that you have to hit L2+R2 on the tutorial but that's misleading. You have to block (L2) THEN hit R2 to dash and interrupt the enemy when he is showing the red flash. I was trying to hit both buttons at the same time and I always failed. Hahaha.

    Oh boy, it took my SOOO long to learn how to bash. I kept trying to left and right click at the same time! Then I learned you hold down right click (block) THEN left click and it bashes *facepalm* Now at least the tutorial forces you to do it to move on...

    I changed the keybind for this. Block clicking was tedious. I just press on the scroll wheel instead

    Crafted Level 48 gear for a character a few months ago ... but then never played the character till after One Tamriel dropped.

    Said character then turned CP561 after only two levels and needed new gear. :|

    Agreed. Seemed like half the time I could never get bash to work. Binding it to a single key fixed that.

    A week or so before 1T dropped, I was farming vSO with my guild and I received a gold viper ring. I was pretty excited and went to link it in chat for a price check and missed the link option and equipped it instead, so I just linked it in chat afterwards and got a price check and it was about 400k since they wouldn't drop anymore in 1T next week.

    I got all the way to the guild store to sell it and couldn't figure out why it wasn't showing up in the sell listing... and then the realization about equipping the ring earlier hit me like Selene's bear hits a naked magblade.

    My friend accidentally dropped a skill point to make Runestones more noticeable...they glow bright orange anyway...um...

    Stupidest thing I've personally done was not check if I was making the special crafted gear (Seducers) or not realise the shoes were a higher level than the chest piece...

    Typed /stuck and was ported right back to the same spot. Did it ten more times and was still stuck, pressed the block botton and was unstuck. I just felt to damn dumb since I hit all the keys accept for that one.

    Not leaving my PS4 on before work so the download saga begins when I get home. This is better than the folks who take the day off to watch a bar creep along instead of playing the new stuff.

    I played a lot before I realized that gold mats were that valuable (before text chat on console and before doing pugs).

    So I had about 10 Kutas and just used them to level up enchanting faster... Oh if I could turn back time...
