Hermaeus Mora Content order??

Gruumsh1 · May 2023

Without spoilers, can anybody give me an idea which order the Hermaeus Mora content should be played now that Necrom has been out on the PTS? I am hoping to run my new Arcanist as a devotee to Mora and am curious to know if I'll actually be fighting against him in any way. Hoping for a rough timeline if possible (I know ESO generally has no sequences for overland quests in general). e.g. I see that in Scriver's Hall Dungeon you are fighting against Valinna etc. Is this story built from any of the overland quests (not just Mora ones perhaps) you can complete?

Thanks ESO fans!

Only thing I’d say is to do the prequel before the main quest but even that isn’t necessary. I didn’t so I don’t know if theres dialogue that changes for doing the prequel. I did notice that main quest events altered dialogue in side quests but it was very minor and didn’t affect the story. The main quest is pretty contained, don’t need to do any others in any specific order like the daedric war saga.

If you want your curiosity answered:

You work with him, never against him. So, your character will fit perfectly into the story.

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's discussing about quests in-game.

Thank you for your understanding

Thanks Maitsukas. Are these in no specific order? I do remember the one quest I've done in Vile Manse that Hermaeus doesn't really know you. I assume it's the same in the others i.e no segue from other the quests - Hermaeus has terrible memory

Thanks for the input everyone! Much appreciated.

On PTS existing instances of H Mora seem to have been re-voiced. This opens the possibility that new dialogue will be added to existing instances of H Mora when the Necrom chapter is released.

That is what happened with Lyranth and Fargrave. I had a character who completed Fargrave and then did Coldharbour. In the Tower of Lies Lyranth acknowledged their meeting in Fargrave.

Completing Necrom first, and then doing the base game and Craglorn H Mora quests, may trigger new dialogue acknowledging your character as the Necrom Proxy.

I certainly hope they re-voiced the existing game's H Mora appearances. They did with Mehrunes Dagon. I did find the new voice on PTS to be completely jarring, considering I was so used to the original voice. Honestly, I thought both the original Mehrunes and Mora's voices were much better than the newer voices... but even so... I want them to match, so I'm ok with them changing the original.

I just checked on PTS, and completed the Rootwater Grove quest, and can confirm that they have indeed changed H Mora's voice to the new version to match Necrom.

This should help a bit as well. We had an article a few weeks back outlining some of the places you could find Hermaeus Mora. Check it out here.

@ZOS_Kevin - can you confirm or deny this theory? Because that would be great!

Cheers!
