✭Recently relocated all my characters to Mournhold due to the positioning of the crafting stations and writ boards surrounding the guild traders and wayshrine. With 14 characters doing writs it saves a substantial amount of my time.[DC/NA]6 -

✭Gotta say Elden Root even as a loyal DC player. Sometimes I try to find the entrance to that skillpoint respec shrine in Wayrest but every time after a couple of minutes of somehow not being able to find it I just port to Elden Root
Hard to get to in Mournhold too, gotta go through a lot of hallways and up some stairs and through some more, and I usually get lazy after I do find it and port out to leave, but at least I can find it there.Edited by Robo_Hobo on December 9, 2017 5:39PM1 -

✭✭✭I have no idea how people can vote mournhold, its art pales in comparison to Eldenroot. And wayrest is just boring.8 -

✭✭✭✭Im a big EP player but Wayrest actually feels like a city with all its twisting and confusing streets and its cascading levels. Mournhold and Elden Root feel like your traditional basic MMO layout for a "city". I still return to Mournhold because of its ease of access for Crafting and Turn-in Points. But it just doesnt feel like something that is lived in. It feels like a planned strip mall.Penniless Sellsword CompanyCaptain Paramount - Jorrhaq VhentKorith Eaglecry * Enrerion Aedihle * Laerinel Rhaev * Caius Berilius * Seylina Ithvala * H'Vak the GrimjawlTenarei Rhaev * Dazsh Ro Khar * Yynril Rothvani * Bathes-In-Coin * Anaelle Faerniil * Azjani Ma'LesAban Shahid Bakr * Kheshna gra-Gharbuk * Gallisten Bondurant * Etain Maquier * Atsu Kalame * Faulpia SeverinusWhat is better, to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort? - Paarthurnax14 -
doslekis✭✭✭I like deeshan but mournhold just feels weird to me. Wayrest is awesome, feels like a massive city with the alleys and castles and whatnot.
But as a bosmer at heart Elden Root takes the win. I love the big crafting bank room. My first home was snugpod, and I loved walking right out to the dueling area and picking up my dailies, but I shortly upgraded to bouldertree refuge right next door in greenshade, but still visit Elden Root regularly.I don't normally use daggers, but when I do, I choose dos Lekis.1 -
BigBadVolk✭✭✭✭✭Mournhold ezly dark elves, everything close to wayshrine mostly, bank with merchant and skillpoint respec, and the undaunted dailies also not so far"The ass is similar to the opinion: Everyone has it, but no one cares about the others!"

✭✭Blimey, can't stand Elden Root. Mournhold all the way. Davons Watch is better though.So they raised the floor and lowered the ceiling. Except the ceiling has spikes in it now and the floor is also lava.3 -

✭The real answer is Sadrith Mora, but Mournhold will do.With cold regards,

✭✭Mournhold is laggy as hell.
Elden Root is annoying and spaced out.
Wayrest is the same.2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Elden Root. It's a tree. A TREE! What more could a little wood elf want?PC NA(no Steam), PvE, mostly solo8 -
TheShadowScout✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Since we are talking capital cities... Mournhold. Because Dunmer. And because of Almalexia. And because it brings back fond memories of playing TES-III:Tribunal...
I just wish more "minor" cities had amienities like crafting stations, bank and dye stations as well... I'd love to see some of that in Balmorra for example (especially a bank, since Hlaluu!), or in Sadrith Mora... it would make them seel more like living -cities- then mere scenery...1 -

✭Elden Root.
--Snugpod
--Riding stable right next to Snugpod
--Outlaw refuge easy to get to from Snugpod
--Guild traders near Snugpod/Wayshrine
--Undaunted enclave near Snugpod/Watshrine
--it's a really, big beautiful tree in the middle of a jungle. Beautiful design inside and out. After 2 years of playing, it's still an awesome sight to see.
--It doesn't feel dreary, dirty and depressing when it's raining like Mournhold and Wayrest do.
--If it was RL, it'd smell of leaves and wood, while Mournhold would smell of guar dung and Wayrest of Breton dung.
--Sometimes I rubberband inside the tree but no crappy fps/lag like I usually get in Wayrest
PC-NA since 2015. Tired and unimpressed.12 -
Dromede✭✭✭✭Elden Root hands down.. Crafting stations, banker and guilds all under the same root, and a -really- cheap house right next to the writ drop-off station. It can't get better than that, for real!Skye Cloude - Sorc DPS, Master Crafter. Main, the bestest
Lae Lenne - Templar Healer Trial grade.
Dromede - Stamina Nightblade, she's a newb and doesn't know what she's doing
V'oghatta - Stamplar pretending to be a tank
Ulville Thonvella - aspiring Fire Mage, be careful around her fire sticks!
Dromedaris - lost and not found. Named after a shoe, what else can you expect from her? A proper tank in her wildest dreams
Swims-Naked - too pretty to grind, too silly to quest.
Sun Flair - Dunmer Templar that can't spell for life. To bad she's too broke to afford a name change... Well, at least she's pretty...1 -
Pink_E_808✭✭✭✭I love Grahtwood in general and my primary home, Gorinir Estate, is just a short ride north of Elden Root. While I do have all the crafting stations (minus the transmute), I don't have a banker or merchant, but I don't mind taking the time to travel between. I can pick up a few mats along the way and, if I'm going from my home to the great tree, the view as I come upon it is just gorgeous. I've been playing for about a year and am still awed by the beauty of that area.0 -
Hrogun✭✭✭Wayrest. It's the only one of the three that feel like an actual city to me.
I've always hoped that one day other cities would feel and could rivalize with The Big 3, like Sentinel or Windhelm...PC EU

Agree, Vivec, BIS. Only thing that is a bit off is the dye station everything else is right there. Sadly no undaunted enclave though. I have Vivec as my afk place for when I log of my characters.1 -
