I played ESO for a month on PC back when it was first released but didn't have time to play it beyond level 15 due to working two jobs. I'm back to one job so I finally got time and then I couldn't decide if I wanted to do console or PC. I tried console first on an xbox one I had and was reminded quickly why I prefer playing elder scrolls games on PC(just little things like keyboard/mouse option and mods and yes I know you cant do mods on ESO cuz it's an MMO). I didn't really learn how to play the game on xbox because I was just exploring to see what the console version of this game was like, and decided I prefer PC so I took a break from it.
Anyway, when I finally got around to getting the PC version, I didn't see an option for the original game and just purchased another version of ESO that started my character off in Morrowind which was awesome! I'm about to be level 14 and now I've played it long enough to ask some intelligent questions, lol. And to help answer my questions, YES i do have ESO plus.
1. One day, I was trying to use the jewelry table and got a message saying that I need the Summerset expansion. I logged in yesterday to try to find the expansion in the crown store and couldn't find it...but for some reason I'm able to craft jewelry now. Did I somehow purchase that expansion without knowing? lol. I did do a lot of fiddling around in the crown store to see what's there, got a pet and a mount and some crown points but that's all I remember getting.
2. How do i start the original storyline that I started to play back when ESO first came out? It's the one that involved portals opening up in the sky with anchors smashing into the ground, connected to chains that helped keep the portals opened.
3. If I can start the original story line, will I lose my inventory? If no, does that mean I'll wake up in a dungeon cell in that realm with my armor on along with my weapons and inventory?
4. I got a 5TB HDD that I keep ESO stored on. I have a 500GB M.2 drive in my PC as well but that's just where I store my operationg system and am saving the rest of the storage space for a CAD program when I start engineering school this fall. Is there any reason I want to reinstall ESO onto my M.2 drive? (I'm using a PC to play ESO that I built to be a CAD workstation for school. Just playing ESO to kill time until I can start school this fall)
5. I noticed that I can't enchant my armor but I can enchant my weapons. Am I correct to understand that the reason some glyffs won't work on my armor is because they're level specific? If so, how do I create higher level glyffs?
6. You know how in Skyrim and other elder scrolls games that no matter your character, you can still learn spells that has nothing to do with your class, and even create spells from scratch? Can I do that in ESO? If so, how?
7. I noticed that my action bar is limited and that I can customize what actions to assign to the bar(keys 1-5 plus an R key). I have a mouse with number buttons on the side that I got for ESO. Is there a way to have a bigger action bar or am I really stuck with only keys 1-5 and an R key? Also, what's the R key for anyway?
8. When it comes to honing stones, I know how to get them through deconstructing items or randomly finding them throughout the game. I need like a ton of them. Is there a way I can get a lot of them somewhere or am I stuck with just doing what I'm already doing to get them? Also, same question regarding dwarven oil.
Thanks in advance to any answers to these questions.
