Soul Shriven
I saw that the most popular race of ESO is the Altmer but ¿ Are they really popular because they are really strong sorcerers? Which race would be the most popular if there is no passives etc?
I like the altmer race due to their lore and same for the dunmers¿Whats your?

ice34697✭✭✭DunmerEver since I first played TES3, I've always played my first play-through of each game as a Dunmer. I absolutely love them and their history. I actually felt really bad for them for the events of the Red Year in 4E 5, even though I know that they brought on the wrath of the Argonians on themselves for their infamous history of slavery. They do have some qualities that I would prefer that they didn't (Slavery and their Xenophobic nature), but ultimately I will always choose a Dunmer as my "go-to".
However, the more lore I delve into and the more I play ESO, I have grown a massive soft spot for the Bosmer and the Khajiit. The Khajiit are just a fascinating race, and the Bosmer culture is just as fun to RP with. My current main is a Bosmer NB, and I think she's going to end up staying my main once I can fully develop her character (RP wise).1 -

✭✭✭BosmerBosmer, because way back when, I made my first character a Wood Elf when I started ES: Arena. Did the same in ES: Daggerfall. I thought "Wood Elf" sounded cool. I like all the races, but the Bosmer will always be special because of that (and yes, in ESO, my main is a Bosmer).3 -

Jarl_Ironheart✭✭✭✭✭NordI feel like a lot of people like Dunmer because of Morrowind being alot of TES players first game. That and they do have interesting lore.
BUT I will always be a Nord man till the day I die. I just resonate so much with them. I too am a passionate, often stubborn tall blonde man who has Norwegian and german ancestors plus I LOVE the cold and green pine forests. Wooden homes/cabins are also a favorite of mine plus I love viking stuff and I always play big warrior characters in games I play. Plus mead is pretty damn goodPush Posh Applesauce, Pocket Full of Marmalade.2 -
Hvíthákarl✭✭✭Orc/OrsimerUsed to be saxhleel (argonians) but since ESO orcs have grown on me and if I had to choose one, they would be the ones. However, Orcs Saxhleel and Khajiit share my top 1. Redguards are real close0

Danikat✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭KhajitThe khajiit have always been my favourite, followed closely by the argonians.
At first it was because before Morrowind I'd only played 1 other RPG with playable cat and lizard people so they seemed more original to me than the standard high/wood/dark elves and humans, but as I learned more about the lore I was increasingly intrigued by their culture too.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

✭✭KhajitKhajiit
The easily beat boring normal human and your standard elf
Then there is nord, more because of the provice of skyrim than the poeple to be honest
Far at the back there is orc and redguard
I find th, their culture and their zone to be completely uniteresting. I remember ehen soing cadwell silfer all those year back. When in alikr i was like: cant wait to finish this zone so i can go somewhere else.
All the rest are pretty much in the middle1 -

https://media.giphy.com/media/3otPoTggaYFNd1FdAI/giphy.gif- Parse Food for PvE:(DPS) Ghastly Eye Bowl (increases Max Magicka by 4592 and Magicka Recovery by 459 for 2 hours).
- Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
- Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
- Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar/arcanist will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).
