Hi everyone.

I am planning to start a brand new ESO account on PS4/5 to play with my real life friends. Had a ton of fun in ESO on PC, but playing with friends with chat is really drawing me onto PS4/5. In fact, I do not know why, but I am excited as hell to start afresh. Understandably the performance on PS4/5 is not as good as PC, but that worries me not.

Having some experience on PC, I planned out the characters I want to make on PS4/5. In a way, I hope to avoid some mistakes that I have made on PC, like my Orc templar healer, while workable, takes a little more effort to be good. And making the characters straight allows me to level my horse riding levels... Oof.

My goals are:
  • Each class will have a Stam and Magicka variant. Hence total 12 characters for a start.
  • Each race is represented.
  • Each race, class and role should be near optimal. Hopefully...

Let me know what you think, feel free to rip my list apart. I'm not a veteran player so I understand my experience may be off.

I cannot add a table in the post, so I had to add a picture above instead. In the event the picture goes haywire, here is my list in text (not aligned, I know, sorry)

Class Type Race Role
Templar Stam Imperial DPS
Warden Stam Wood Elf PVP
Sorcerer Stam Orc PVP
Nightblade Stam Redguard DPS
Dragonknight Stam Nord Tank
Necromancer Stam Dark Elf DPS

Templar Magicka Breton Healer
Warden Magicka Khajiit Healer
Sorcerer Magicka High Elf DPS
Nightblade Magicka Breton DPS
Dragonknight Magicka Dark Elf PVP
Necromancer Magicka Argonian Tank

Thanks a million, any advice will be much appreciated!! Cheers and stay safe, everyone!

    I cannot edit my post... but the Nightblade Redguard should be DPS, not Redguard Redguard hahaha.

    Top right of the thread itself should be roughly were the edit button is for the original post.

    Looks good.
    One question; will you have a crafter/gatherer? Separate characters or one?

    Orcs get the inspiration bonus which could be handy starting over. I've found NBs to be good gathering characters. Can vanish and run to avoid fighting after a node.

    Picking which character to play is always hard for me. I have 12 at CP1000+ right now. Having them dedicated to certain tasks seem to help.

    Thanks! Yes, planned to have the Orc as crafter and gatherer, so all recipes and motifs will go to him.

    Argonian is better suited as a healer, as his heals done has a bonus 6%. Not much but if you are trying to min max.
