1)Talk to the hooded figure for the main story quest in Auridon, Glenumbra or Stonefalls depends on your faction.

2)after doing the first quest you will be sent to the area where you can start the quest of your faction. (also do side quests and the mages and fighters guild quests)

3)after main story quest and faction zones quest do Cadwell's silver and gold quests (basically the other factions quests).

4)now come the DLCs and chapters in that order: Imperial City, Orsinium, Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, Morrowind, Clockwork City, Summerset, Elsweyr, Dragonhold, Greymoor, Markarth.

(I did not include the Dungeon DLCs)


In my opinion what they did with the new chapters, as starting zones for new players, makes no sense and ruins the story flow for them. Also when you do the new chapters NPCs will comment on your past adventures.

Yes I watch a video and the guy said that the new born zone is not the right with the storyline. I am nighblade Darkelf, so I have to go to the Stonefalls and do the zone quests

(my way of playing is first doing the 2ndry quests, then finishing the zone with the main quest. what do u think? is this good way? or first the main then the secundary?)

When I did the main story (which was in like 2016) I got the new story quests as I leveled up, so you can do the zone quests parallel to the main story as in do some zone and side quests and a main story quest then progress with zone and again a story quest. and don't forget on the way do the mages guild and fighters guild.

I usually start with the first quest in the main questline of the zone, which gives me an introduction to the story of the zone and also gives me a reason to start traveling around. Then while I'm traveling, I pick up side quests as I find them. So it's kind of a mix of progressing through the main questline while doing side quests along the way.

Most zones, especially in the base game, have a fairly logical progression of traveling across the map, so this method is helpful for making sure I don't miss anything. It's also nice in many cases to have the context of the main story in relation to the side quests. (Like how in Western Skyrim, many of the side quests relate to the invasion of the Gray Host, which you might not understand as well if you haven't started the main quest at all.) Usually I finish the side quests around the same time I get to the last main quest, so it feels like it's all concluding together.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, okey then, this is good one

If you're interested in playing the game in chronological order - I'd HIGHLY suggest following this guide. It helped me when I was a new player in the Elsweyr days!

Oh thanks👍👍👍

The main story quests have a different quest marker in case you want to look for them. What he meant with a quest line per zone is that apart from side quests, every single map zone has a questine (except cyrodil) which may or may not be connected to other zones. To clarify:

- In the original map, faction had a shared a questline through all their map zones. So there you have 3 storylines + the main questline (prophet and stuff). Go to Aurindon, Stonefalls or Glenumbra to start them.

- Until 2-3 years ago, they released independent dlcs, some only dungeons and others with storylines such as dark brotherhood, orsinium...

-For the last 2 or 3 years, each year had a storyline that was divided in four parts plus free prologues: 2 dungeons dlcs ( with 2 dungeons each) + Chapter (large map + trial) + Small story DLC.


I would recommend following the release order, but only to have a defined order, there is no requirement:

And finally, you can start a dlc map questline by looking for the first quest manually or in the Collections window, go into stories and select the dlc you want to start.

thank You, it would be cool having something like table of contents in the game
library

The Hooded Figure's quest is an adaptation of what used to be the exact start of the game. Do that quest very, very soon.

(That said: Join the Fighter's Guild before you do anything else. That's a technicality so that you get experience in the associated quest line.)

After you've done the Hooded Figure's quest, start from the beginning of one of the alliance zones. There are two possibilities for that in each of the three zones. Three of those six choices are good: Stros M'Kai (Daggerfall Covenant), Daggerfall (in Glenumbra; also DC of course), and Khenarthi's Roost (Aldmeri Dominion).

Of those, I think the single best option is Daggerfall. Go to the part of town where the crafting stations and bank are, and you'll be accosted by a barking dog. Take the quest he gives you and proceed from there.

All the main-regional-story quests in Glenumbra (which by the way is the only zone to give 4 quest skill points rather than the standard 3) are interesting, easy, or both. You also meet some of the game's top NPCs there (Darien and Gabriele).

Also excellent are the Stormhaven (which is the second DC zone) sotry quests up until the point where you meet King Emeric, and all of Rivenspire (the third DC zone) as well. Bangorkai (fifth DC zone) is good from start to finish too. Latter Stormhaven and Alik'r Desert (fourth DC zone) can be more tedious, however.

You can do Wrothgar any time after Rivenspire, but while it's excellent early and late, it has a tedious stretch in the middle.

Thanks U all for help
