    1. Do not play EVE Online, it will die soon, play ESO from beta.
    2. Do not buy purple motifs by crowns, use damn guildstores!
    3. Do not make Templar Healer your main, make DK Tank your main!

    On topic while I do regret not getting motifs and certain food recipes while they were cheap as dirt. I would go back and listen to quests better and enjoy stories more. It's my only regret. Game just had to busy since day 1!

    1) Make a dedicated crafting character - it will save money on motifs and make it easier to do dailies because they can stay in town.

    2) Don't make that second templar, no matter what you do she'll be too similar to the first one. Wait a few years and a better profession for that character will be released.

    3) Don't buy the chicken guar from the crown store, you'll hardly use it. Also don't buy the vvardvark, you'll get a free one later (don't ask, you'll find out later what a vvardvark is) but do buy the dapple grey palfrey, you'll be able to get the white mane horse any time but that one will be gone forever soon.

    1. Research!
    2. Start crafting ASAP.
    3. Get ESO+ ASAP because of #2. Don't just tell yourself, "I had fun for a few minutes during a free play weekend, so $10 isn't too bad. Now, don't spend another dime, cheapskate self." That's a guarantee that $10 is a waste.

    Hey, Violynne.

    It's me, Violynne from 2018. I know you're probably shocked I'm, er you, are still here, but it comes with some caveats I wish to help you get past so you won't be receiving this message. Ugh, this is why we hate time traveling.

    You are going to get frustrated with this game, multiple times, causing you to make some really stupid decisions, and worse, walk away from this game several times. I'm here to help you so you don't get frustrated.

    * Do not delete your Khajiit NB. Granted, it may not be the best class suited for the role, but it will get by. You're not into max DPS anyway, but to delete it will come back to haunt you in your nightmares. All that research, all those quests, you'll do again with a new NB because ZoS will actually fix this f[censored]ed up class. It will take 3 years, but they will fix it. Don't delete it. I beg of you.

    * Steal everything and sell it. Everything. Level up Legerdemain to take advantage of the skills to steal from safeboxes and citizens of Tamriel. Stop telling yourself this isn't about greed. You will need gold. Trust me on this. ZoS is about to screw everyone over by releasing motifs as pages, and the extra greed of the community will have them at 100k each. This is the only reason you'll need it because...

    * FOR THE LOVE OF COMMON SENSE, STOP CREATING AND IMPROVING NEW WEAPONS AND ARMOR AT EVERY 10 LEVELS YOU IDIOT! Save those mats. Goodness, save those mats. You're going to regret it worse than not having any gold. Stop wasting those mats. *slap*

    * ZoS will be changing the ranking system, so get to VR14 as fast as you can. This will translate to the new CP with max points, and you'll be sitting pretty to rack up tons of exp so when each CP is released, you'll have 30 new points to spend.

    * When you leave (trust me, nothing I can do will prevent this because ZoS gives no damns to console UI or QoL improvement, even as I write this in 2018), at least log in daily to do your writs (free gold and mats), train your mounts, and steal items for gold (Auridon is the best place for this). All this will take about an hour, as you'll have writ and safebox patterns memorized.

    * Because it's so important, it bears repeating:
    * * Do not delete your Khajiit NB. Granted, it may not be the best class suited for the role, but it will get by. You're not into max DPS anyway, but to delete it will come back to haunt you in your nightmares. All that research, all those quests, you'll do again with a new NB because ZoS will actually fix this f[censored]ed up class. It will take 3 years, but they will fix it. Don't delete it. I beg of you.
