    Leveling my Stam DK using 1H and Shield, because I didn't know I could just swap to that bar when I turned in quests...

    (At least I pretty much never died! :D )

    At first I didn't understand how food worked which I finally learnt then...
    At second I was confused when I would eat and drink and lose my food buff.

    At the very start I hated how slow the heavy attackswere and how little damage they did.. then I moved on to Poison injection as my "Cast arrow" abilitiy.

    I did and still kinda do play stealth archer just like in all other ES games.

    My first C.O.D. sale, worth 60k. Either out of tiredness or over excitement, I attached 60k gold as well as the item being sold. Fortunately the other person was honest and sent the money back.

    I fell of the edge of a keep into a bunch of invading bananas whilst trying to get an angle to shoot from. It was over quickly.

    I got my first scouting quest from Cyrodiil and sneaked the entire way there (stopping often to regain stamina) sweating bullets the whole time.

    For first 20-30 levels I didn't realize you could hide helms so I just didn't wear one because they were ugly and I was pretty and didn't want to see them.

    Early on I pulled ahead of the tank and had a penchant to overlook the red zones on the ground. When I started healing I was missing the all-so-important ele-drain. My, does time fly!

    So guilty. During beta I was in Stros M'Kai and kept trying to to hop across Rash Merchant's Plummet because I thought that was the way to the mainland, which would then take me to Cyrodiil.

    Beta runner-up: I destroyed all my gear, items, and gold at the end of, I think, the January '14 beta round, then ZOS was like, surprise! You get to continue your existing characters for the next round. And I was like, ...mother ***...

    Spamming Wrecking Blow at the Mage in AA back when it was v14. Then an axe got loose and showed me the proper way to do it while also putting me out of my misery :lol:
    AD is the best looking faction. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them.

    My first ever venture into a dungeon, getting wgt at around level 15-20 or so. I was playing a magsorc.
    I was so annoyed with the group as the tank were only tanking a couple of the trash mobs the other dps and healer were aoeing everything in sight instead of focusing down mobs lol.
    I was obviously too used to playing games like wow etc!
    Luckily for me I didn't rage at the players and instead started frequenting the forums where I started piecing things together to get a better understanding of the playstyle :)

    Still doing it ... so yeah, I guess I stay forever noob.

    Learning my keys:

    If you see some CP160 using an ultimate on a poor treasure chest, ressource node, crafting station, door or message board... well, thats probably me again pressing "R" when actually wanting to press "E". .... Luckily I got the "prevent killing innocents"-active or many questgivers would be slain by now ... :#

    My first time in Maelstorm Arena. Ran in on normal mode and did it without dying. Plot twist; I thought it was veteran mode. I was so confused because all my guildmates were complaining over it being so hard....

    Then I later on went for veteran mode and did flawless until Seht's Flywheel (?) I died every god damn time at the boss. All because I didn't know I am supposed to stand under the spider. Did get it to 4% tho
