Should I unsubscribe, cannot progress because of time and family...

blairian27
Just wondering if there is anything to do to help progress when VET content doenst seem to be doable because I dont get the time. I cannot get groups for even normal content when I can play unless I move to NA and start all over again.

I love this game but over the last year I have enough time to log in, scan traders, list selling items, and then maybe a group will pop in that time.
I want to do VET as no other way to get best gear but as a father with a full time job it's just not doable... or is it?

    I'm in a few guilds that runs trials and have limited schedules. I'm on PS4 NA. I'm not sure what your platform is.

    Look in the recruitment section of the forums. Search the guild finder. Talk to people. I expect you will be able to find something that works for you.

    Maybe, if you aren't already, you could get into housing and furnishing. It doesn't take that long and can be done bit by bit and is a lot of fun creatively. When you have those odd days of peace if that ever happens then you could spend more time doing intensive things.

    If the game is still a good escape and instant gratification for you from real life pressure, then take some time and just enjoy it if you can work it in. Vet content will always be there, but family grows up fast. Good luck!

    It's very doable. I'm in the same boat but have ticked off most stuff.

    1. Join a guild. PUG life in vet stuff isn't cool. And you can organise in advance
    2. Streamline your play ensure what you are doing is worth it and fun.

    You say scan traders. That gives me a whiff of inefficency. Used right the trader system shouldn't take much time, join 2-3 trader guilds and you can access them from your bank. Also onLy buy what's really rare, get in a good main guild with a crafter or learn to craft yourself. I only check traders for rare items or to find a deal to flip.

    Lastly if you cant find a main guild that suits your style creat one!! You aare in a similar boat to many other players.

    What platform are you?

    Your fam needs boundaries.

    Expand your "ME TIME". At least a few hours a day should be your own. Communicate that with fam.

    My opinion, if you like eso remained subbed as you get crowns per month and other perks. Play what and how you can, personally I do tons of overworld things and help new players. I work as a firefighter so 10days on 6 days off.

    Others have touched on this already, but I think if this is something you're really enjoying, keep your sub :)

    It's really less than the cost of a movie ticket, and if it's keeping you happy, then why not ?

    Agree with the most part. If your kids are suffering and not seeing you though, stepping back is probably a good idea. You won’t have this time again...
