You should be the healer for this dungeon. Looking back...it all started at that moment when three of us walked into banished cells.

Block! Inside my first hel ra and it was very helpful

A guildmate bought columbine from me and sent it back with a very nice mail explaining that columbine sells for much more than 20g a piece. By the way, Master Merchant would help me figure out pricing.

Now I have around 5 million gold and a lot of that goes back to that guildmate giving me the heads up about the value of mats in the player economy.

Don't be an idiot. Every time I go to do something, I think "would an idiot do that?" Then I don't do that thing. Changed my life.

Every time i go to do something i do it and then think " what a idiot " Then I forget and do that thing again ... it didn't changed my life.

For example

(doing crafting daily quickly and instead of using 12 mats i use 130 and then i go WHAT A IDIOT .. after few months i forget and do it again )

Change the enemy combat cue brightness to better see enemy aoe.

Casting frag then streak on the same target will land at about the same time.

Wait, what? For a newbie, I have no idea what you mean. How would you reduce the mat cost that much?

When you go from cp150 to cp160, the amount of mats needed for items jumps a LOT. Want to make a cp150 cuirass/jerkin/robe? It takes about 15 ingots/hides/bolts of cloth. Want to make a cp160 cuirass/jerkin/robe? It will take 150 ingots/hides/bolts of cloth. For a full set of cp160 items you'll need 130 for feet, 130 for hands, 130 for shoulders, 130 for belt, 130 for helm/head, 140 for legs, and the 150 for the chest. If you aren't paying attention, its easy to accidentally make a writ item the wrong level.

Ahhh I see. Yes good advice to double check what level you are crafting

Daedric_NB_187 · February 2018

Avoid the official forums.

erliesc · February 2018

The advice I give myself....slow the f*dge down...take things as they come...don't frontload your experience...you'll still get to the same place...but you will be saner when you get there.

The tortoise and the hare....

Tizerak · February 2018

Being instantly kicked from a group without any reason before the dungeon even starts.
Such a wonderful player base.

MajesticHaruki · February 2018

Don't die

Syrusthevirus187 · February 2018

Make one of each character early on and train their horse each day. You'll thank yourself later.

Hrogun · February 2018

"Don't rush."

cjhhickman39 · February 2018

If your going to be a crafter you don’t need a horse. Walk everywhere so you can grab mats while questing.
Only exception cyrodiil

"Don't use heavy armor on your stamina nightblade and sword and board are things for tanks"

wow no wonder i did like no damage at all but also didnt died. If i would have known earlier

Took me ages to get from Stonefalls to Shadowfen in my early ESO days

Oh also that you can interrupt Spiders. Didn't knew that until a friend pointed that out during a dungeon run while i was on my tank. Didn't know what the red sparks mean. I am so dumb xD (that is now maybe a year ago that i got that advice haha)

Hard to remember, but what I guess there were basic questions I asked when I started doing group dungeons with other players, at about level 20. There wasn't any group finder back then so you had to LFG: [Dungeon name] in zone. For example I hadn't played other multiplayer games online so I had to figure out what a tank had to do, including what "taunt" and "aggro" meant. But once the other players explained that, it was pretty simple figuring out the rest. Then I started looking at dungeon guides on youtube and various sites and researching builds on the forums, as I found those posted online to be severely outdated. Now I only ask questions regarding the finer points of the game, for example how DoTs damage is calculated or which trait is more effective for a specific setup. Those questions do pop up from time to time since the game undergoes so many changes patch to patch.
