I did a newbie error a few months back, when I'd only been playing ESO for a few months. My starting zone was Western Skyrim, and I happened to trigger a quest called "The Fading Fire". I was definitely unprepared for that one! :p The large, aggressive mobs in the Labyrinthian public dungeon... well... mobbed me, and I died repeatedly. I had no idea at the time that I'd entered a public dungeon (I was still getting the feel of the different types of locations in ESO and their challenges), and I was so unprepared for it.

Do you have any amusing anecdotes to share, of your own newbie errors?

    I never correctly set my screen resolution. Suddenly, without knowing it, I saw everything in wide but it was normal for me.
    I obviously created my first characters on this resolution ... I couldn't understand when friendly players told me that my characters were terribly thin.

    I played on bad resolution for 3 years.

    I didn't use food buffs until I hit Vet ranks. One day, my SO was like "You gotta use food. It makes questing so much easier." You know what? It did!

    Didn't use map pins and lorebooks addons from start, so i didn't see bosses and books on the map.
    Didn't lvl up antiquarian right away, so i didn't see treasure chests.
