Check tamrieltradecentre.com for the best deals if you're not using a price checking addon).
Parse Food for PvE:(DPS) Ghastly Eye Bowl (increases Max Magicka by 4592 and Magicka Recovery by 459 for 2 hours).
Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar/arcanist will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).
Favourite Race: Bosmers. The real, sneaky ones, not the botched guards we have nowadays.
Favourite Class: Nightblade. I play a thief-like character in every game that will allow it, I'm not gonna divorce my long standing love for breaking virtual law because of a nerf. Or a zillion nerfs.
Favourite NPC: Naryu ! But Razum dar comes close.
Favourite Main Quest: The actual Main Quest, the one that used to start at character creation and led you to kick Molag in the Bal.
Favourite game item: Doesn't matter.
Favourite guild: It's a tie between the Imperial Trading Company and the Children of the Wolf.
Race: Highelf
Class: Sorc, Non pet magsorc
Alliance: Aldmeri Dominion
Zone: summerset
Quest line: mages guild
Npc: queen ayreen or quen
Ability: negate
Class to hate on: warden
Set julianos
Trial: hof
Place. cropsford light house
Dungeon: Vaults of madness
Horse: original knightmare horse
Armor: highelf light
Aedra: Auriel
Deadra: Sheo
Campaign: Scourge
Favourite Race: Dunmer (for their looks)
Favourite Class: Currently stamcro (all time: magsorc, stamNB)
Favourite NPC: I'm undecided, but I did warm up a lot to Abnur Tharn during Elsweyr
Favourite Main Quest: Rivenspire or CWC
Favourite game item: Not an item but a skill: Power Surge
Favourite guild: Skal on PC/NA for being the friendliest, and most welcoming guild I've been on
Favourite Mount: Dro-m'athra panther, but I have a soft spot for the Psijic senche as well
Favourite pet: That's tough because I love the cubs, but it's probably the blue baby netch
Favourite activities: Trials, housing
Architecture: Nedic
Beast: Fire atronachs (they do cute somersaults)
Daedric Princes: Mephala
Aedra: Lorkhan (was he actually though?)
Zones: Auridon
Favourite Race: Bosmer, I love their take on protecting the wild. (Green pact)
Favourite Class: Sorcerer, Stamina DD spec to be precise. It was my first spec and I've grown to love it. Hurricane+crit surge = love.
Favourite NPC: Sheogorath, so consistent and eccentric.
Favourite Main Quest: Wrothgar main quest line.
Favourite game item: not an item but an item set; Vicious Ophidian. It is not the greatest set, but it helps a ton when soloing or having an unreliable group.
Favourite guild: I really can't decide, there's 2 amazing guilds I'm in, Brave Cat Trade and Dragonborn Z. When not in game, I tend to lurk their discord channels and sometimes chat there.
Favourite boss: Matriarch Runa, no RNG, just mechanics to follow. Only DPS race after the 2nd platform is destroyed (so DPS race starts from ~40% max health mark)
Favourite Race:
Imperial (followed by Orcs), I'd say, since I'm a sucker for all things Romanesque. I own a pretty worn t-shirt of Legio XII.
Favourite Class:
Well... actually I like all the classes that allow me to summon critters.
Favourite NPC:
Skordo the Knife. Hot stuff.
Favourite Main Quest:
The Orsinium one.
Favourite game item:
Oh ... so many! I'm a devoted hunter and collector. Since managing my virtual real estate takes most of my game time, I'd say 'real estate' for now.
Favourite Main Quest: The one where this one became a benevolent empress of all Tamriel, freely distributed moon sugar, tamed dragons, got power hungry, hoarded all the yarn and lived happily ever after - update 47 that one is due.
Favourite Race: Three way tie between Breton, Imperial and Altmer.
Favourite Class: Nightblade is top favourite, but also enjoy my DKs and Sorc. Too early to place my Necros yet.
Favourite NPC: Hard to choose, but I'll go with Abnur Tharn and I was very happy to see his return with the Elsweyr chapter. However, a very close second place tie would go to Darien Gautier and Sotha Sil.
Favourite Main Quest: Id say the Main main quest, though Summerset was also very good.
* Not what I consider a 'main' quest, but Rivenspire zone quest deserves a mention here as well.
Favourite game item: My houses (and stuff in them.)
Favourite Guild: Both the ones that I am in
Favourite Zone: Summerset
Favourite Mount: Loyalty Tiger. Second place mention to Grey Yokudan Charger.
Favourite Class: Templar! My main shizzle since 2014, healing.. dpsing... tanking..... everything!
Favourite NPC: This one is hard af, so I wont list one but all! I adore: Raz, Darien, Xukas, King Emeric, Abnur Tharn and last but not least, Cadwall! Because John Cleese... Always look on the..
Favourite Main Quest: The Murkmire quest was surprisingly lovely! And other than that... Daggerfall ofc.
Favourite game item: This one is also hard af, but I'd go with the Augur of the Obscure
Favourite guild: Well, Nirn Traders and The Nirn Underground as they're well... kind of mine
Favourite house: Nirn's amazingly awesome and wholesome guildhouse.
Favourite time consumer: Standing afk in Mournhold, of course.
With regards,
Rob.
