Hello! I've found topics with similiar questions but answers there are not quite full, so i'd like to clear something up. Basically as said in title, i'm a returning player and according to account info i currently own only Elder scrolls online: Tamriel unlimited.

Now, as far as i know ESO+ will allow me to play every dlc and expansion except greymoor and also won't give me access to classes. In the store i have an option to buy greymoor upgrade or standard edition that will also include previous chapters. To the question: do i understand it right, if i want to experience everything that game has to offer - i can either buy greymoor upgrade, subscribe to ESO+ and buy out all classes with crowns or just purchase standard edition and then only use eso+ to access smaller dlc content?

I'm sorry if my question sounds confusing, it's just expansion system of ESO is confusing itself. Honestly, i just want to jump into the game ASAP and play necromancer and do it as cheap as possible (while getting to experience everything later) and deliberating whether i just buy necro with crowns that i already have on me and play base game first or just get access to everything at once via 2 methods described above.

    You want to play necromancer as cheap as possible? Then simply buy the class for 1,500 crowns. Only get eso+ if you want the infinite mats backpack, or in your case, smaller dlc. Personally I don't like greymoor, but if you want to buy it just get the standard upgrade for the content. Collector's upgrade only gives you very mediocre emotes and a mount which imo isnt worth the amount of money they ask

    Yes, i want to jump into the game as necromancer but i also want to get to play all other content game has to offer eventually and i don't want to pay more than necessary. Like, i still don't understand one thing - if i buy standard edition, will i also get access to new classes besides chapters themselves or i can currently get new classes *only* via crowns?

    Hey @gane1404, the Standard Edition of Greymoor grants you access to all chapters, Morrowind, Summerset, Elsweyr, and Greymoor, as well as access to the Warden and Necromancer classes.

    With ESO+ you will have access to all DLC with the exception of Greymoor and would have to purchase the Warden and Necromancer classes separately.

    Hope this helps!
