A few questions on Locations

Hi All,

Would you please answer the below question for me:

1. Why does Aldmeri Dominion have one area less (6) then other factions (7)? Does that mean AD characters have less content (fewer shards, resource, quests...)?

2. Are the areas belonging to other factions (Daggerfall Covenent and Ebonheart Pact) also accessible for an Aldmeri Dominion character at a later stage of the game? Can a AD character find quest there? Are they as numerous as in the "core" AD areas?

3. What is the designed area order in which an Aldmeri Dominion character travels following the PvE quests (so far, I have visited: Auridon, Khenarthi's Roost, Grahtwood)?

Thank you!

    1. I had no idea they had less areas. In any case, number of quests, shards etc. should be the same as for other factions.
    2. Yes, on Veteran levels.
    3. Haven't played Aldmeri beyond the starter island, sorry.

    1. AD content has exactly same amount of quests/shards etc, altho it has one less area if you actually look at the maps, the AD area is much larger and broken into fewer parts.
    2. as above stated, yes when you get to veteran levels you can quest other factions areas,
    3. Khenarthi's Roost, Auridon, Grahtwood, Greenshade, Malabal Tor, Reaper's March.

    Regarding 2: how many quests await me at Veteran levels in the other faction's areas? 50% of the quests I did in Aldmeri Dominion? 25%? Less?

    just speculating as i have not yet reached 50 let alone veteran, but i think pretty much near enough the same, as i have seen several posts that state you can complete other factions quest lines but at veteran difficulty altho you won't see other faction players only veteran players of your alliance, and seeing as the exp scaling in veteran would in thought be a lot higher than pre 50, i would foresee needing a lot of quest content in order to be able to level.

    Expanding upon what others have said:
    1. While Ebonheart has Bleakrock & Bal Foyen and Daggerfall has Stros M'kai and Betnikh, Aldmeri has Khanarthi's roost, it has the same amount of content as the other factions, but condensed into 1 zone.
    2. The faction quests for all 3 factions will take you from about lvls 1-45 before they all converge in a final zone, sharing the same story. Upon hitting veteran and being sent to another faction, you will be doing all of the lvl 1-45 quests for the new faction at the very least, but veteran ranked versions of it. Leveling is a lot slower because veteran ranks only go VR1-VR10 (VR1 is lvl 50 btw) so thats 9 additional levels to spread out across 2 entire factions.
