Bad habits and compulsions confessional

Sheezabeast · August 2018

Do you have a bad habit in ESO? Something you can't help doing? A compulsion you have to do no matter what?

Mine is when I'm in a dungeon, I have to loot bodies as they pile up as they die. I loot in combat. I cannot resist the urge to just wait and gather. I know I could use auto-loot. But looting corpses is just so dang satisfying! I do it as quickly as I can

I have little ocd regarding to keep walls...

Even if they are not under attack but I see that their HP is lower than 100%, I need to repair them

ArchMikem · August 2018

Once I have an achievement goal started, I keep trying to finish it even when I have obligations or it's getting incredibly late and I should've been in bed hours ago. Like the earn 25 Boon Boxes one. I was at 23, just needed two more but it was already like an hour after I should've gotten off to go exercise but I wanted it done. And no I'm not one that earns millions every campaign.

When I loot Thieve's Guild Troves, I take the gold and leave everything else.

I also like to walk my characters so I can watch certain things sway with the animation...

I hate when people summon cake at the doors in Maw of Lorkhaj

Looting urns no matter what or where, or how many mobs are in front of it. There might be motifs inside.

So stepping into a Dwemer ruin and seeing urns, urns everywhere means a delve dive that's going to take 10x longer.

When I have a dragon leap up I cant help but jump into the middle of a zerg. I know I will die I know I wont kill anyone I just cant help it. It's a horrible habit and makes everyone in my group mad.

Just looks so cool to see a bunch of players pop up.

There is something very satisfying about casting Volatile Armor, Igneous Shield, Rally, then LEAPING into a zerg! It's always a gamble

Yeah thanks for that.

I have several bad habits:
1. Picking every node in my path, even in Cyro
2. Racing to pick chests in IC, even when I am group and then laughing in chat
3. Pick Pocketing Guards and then running like hell
4. Stealing everything in sight, love stealing strongboxes from another player, just to show off
5. Trolling pugs in dungeons if they are not nice, like dying on purpose and res at start

One of the most anti social habits ever - same with the people who partially loot chests / rune nodes.

There's a special place in some hell hole reserved for every one of you who does this

Agreed, completely selfish

Sheezabeast · August 2018

Now now, this is a confessional, no need to shame, they're being honest!

Caligamy_ESO · August 2018

I cast rapid maneuver on top of keep walls during sieges just to see how many people go flying off by accident.
Sometimes I log in and just stand there reading zone chat for an hour while wandering back and forth across town then log off.
I have spent entire days just moving housing furniture around, and sometimes it ends up right back where it was to begin with.
When I encounter bossy tanks or healers in random pugs with a chip on their shoulder I pick up speed as much as possible so I can be done with them sooner.

Salvas_Aren · August 2018

Looting each and every dwemer container.

Opening all rifts, chests and troves, even on the way to a quest, or siege, or anchor.

If a noob calls me stupid dungeon rusher, I speed up like uncle Sheo is paying me a visit.

So delete some trash.

YamiKuruku · August 2018

when running around doing random stuff (quest, waiting for queue etc) i need to pick everything i see.

it was really hard to not harvest stuff in cyrodiil the first times i was there. Now its better XD
But all that fancy loot around me needs a home! So my pockets and the not-so-empty craftbag are their home

Love for everything, potato, insects, worms... Alkahest.

Oh and also when i am on my tank doing randoms with pugs and they feel like rushing ahead and triggering everything i lay back and walk slower than before *sets sunglasses on*
& see how these dogs deal with the baws.
Feel bad after i guess. But in that moment i am just annoyed I:

Firing snipe from stealth at someone riding on a horse really slowly

Every time we are offline for maintenance I plan to go play something else or go do something else but I end up checking the forums every 5 minutes to see if the game is up yet and never do anything thing else.

Cadbury · August 2018

I sometimes read the forums when I'm at work.

Shhh. Don't tell anyone.

That's exactly what I am doing right now! And I keep telling myself to go do something else but I just can't.

DanteYoda · August 2018

Yes i am a lootaholic even if 99% are full of garbage..

Yeah that makes two of us

fioskal · August 2018

I like to cake things... doors.... dead players... whatever.... and blame someone else.

I have to loot everything. All the time. PvPing with a group is a real challenge because I can't. Stop. To. Get. Every. Flower.

d3adkid · August 2018

I leave my worms behind.

d3adkid · August 2018

I also have more points in riding capacity than speed.

Edit: Grammar

Malcadicta · August 2018

I am a loot maniac. I will loot everything on my way and then need a merchant every 10 minutes if I don't have eso+ (I'm an on and off subsriber and since most of the loot is mats...)

If I get an achievment in my head I will just drop everything and go do it and grind till it's mine.

I spend most of my money on house. On furniture schematics and then mats for them. Then I spend waaay too much time inside the house wondering where should this table go. Also all my bigger homes, even not mains, are furnished and I hate that people can't visit them.
