Seems to me that vet trials/ vet dlc hm's/ no deaths/ speed runs are just not made for us. So lets look at what we can do in this at the average level. I loved the pvp originally for years fighting outnumbered, and trading/crafting of course also really enjoyed the area dailies when i came over to pc and of course dungeons. Ive tried housing im terrible at it 😂
If you're an above average player why not also make a poll if you feel left out if this? In my opinion I think theres more than enough evidence on the forums about above average players and how easy content is to them. As for questing I know alot find this fun but i only had 10 options i could choose in the poll so had to choose wisely, after all it is covering average player activities as opposed to what beginner players are doing generally I think. 😊

Mandragora✭✭✭✭HousingI enjoyed the goal of crafting furnitures for houses the most.
I quite do enjoy writs with crafting, sometimes dungeons if I meet a friendly group, where I can test my skill/armor setup and just doing quests/gathering materials generally, but heists and sacramets are a bit the same and sort of broken - I almost never complete the challenge.
At certain point everything become pointless/too much repetitive. Like writs as the main noncombat daily is almost impossible to avoid, so it gets old if you have to do it with every alt.
So that is why I wish for more of non combat zone dailies, where I can roleplay as an addition to the daily. I don't know if it would be fun.
Scrying is fun aswell, but very limited and timed rewards, so I'm not sure what I feel about it.PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!0 -

✭✭✭✭✭How can questing be omitted? That's far and away still my favourite activity after playing since launch, with housing and fishing the only things on your list that I also do.44 -

✭✭✭✭✭It is kinda a hard question, because it depends on my mood and what I think I want to do "in that moment".
On average, I mostly login to do daily endeavours and 7 crafting quests.
But if I would have to rate, then it would be:
- Daily routine (crafting quests)
- Questing.
- "Solo" group dungeons (yes, I do those alone, it feels more rewarding, almost like a solo-trial).
- PvP in Cyrodiil.
- Housing.
It is not like I like one more than the other, it depends on the mood I am in.
As for Arenas & IC - I only do those if I absolutely have to. For instance, gear that drops in arenas & IC is not the factor, but mythic leads for example are. If I farm the leads or do this type of coronet (Arena & IC), after w while I hate myself and need a long break.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Area dailiesOf the options you offered, "area dailies" probably comes closest. More generally, I most enjoy the repeatable activities such as crafting writs, guild dailies, zone dailies-- including the ones in PvP zones-- and just running around fighting mobs and bosses, doing delves and dungeons, farming resources, collecting gear for the stickerbook, etc.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!1 -
DreamyLu✭✭✭✭✭
✭What I enjoy the most is to wander freely in PvE explorable, without any mandatory objectives, zero stress, harvesting everything in sight, collecting chests and troves, enjoying landscapes. If t's on my way and I feel for it, I go for a quest, a delve or take part at a dolmen/boss...
That's my way to play in ESO generally: chilling in full freedom, doing only what I feel for.
Trading is my 2nd preferred activity, followed by housing and scrying/excavating.
The only dailies I do are the equipment crafting ones, completed within 3 minutes max thanks to an addon. And a funny thing is that due to my way to play, almost every day, 2 up to 3 of the daily endeavors get automatically completed without extra efforts...
I'm out of my mind, feel free to leave a message... PC/NA3 -

✭✭✭✭✭Exploration - the most vital activity is missing in your list.
And I like the antiquities system lately a lot - gets me into areas, where I haven't been before and where I would have had no reason to go there - which in return gave me some awesome experiences in places, where I never thought that there would be any interesting content.Edited by Lysette on January 9, 2022 3:53PM3 -

Darrett✭✭✭✭Vet base dungeonsI enjoy doing dungeon runs, but it’s not easy to find the right difficulty. They go from complete cakewalks to very difficult too quickly. Vet bases are probably the most fun in regards to difficulty level.
Vet base dungeons are still a little too easy in most cases, but the gap between them and the vet DLC content is a bit too large, and the dlc content turns frustrating rather than enjoyable.3 -

✭✭PvpA couple years ago it would have been a tossup between farming, fishing or trading, as I enjoy them all. However, now that I have farmed and fished everything in the game and traded myself to the point of not needing gold for anything, PVP is where it is at for me. I enjoy the unpredictability of other players, large battles and generally mixing it up in a mostly chaotic atmosphere where anything could happen and I still get truly surprised sometimes.
I was never really into dungeons or trials, most because I burned out on memorizing patterns playing PacMan back in the day, and memorization of mechanics /= skill or engagement for me.2 -
