Deep inside I believe that high CP players are very experienced in doing all the mechanics.
I know it is not true. I had great experience running with non-veterans and had awful experience with 3k+ CP players many times.
Anyway, every time I see somebody with high numbers in PUG, a small devil whispers to my ear: "That guy might be very good at it".

Another bias I caught myself on is about working hard on achievements.
While I know that many of them can be obtained with a simple luck or a paid run, I always forget it when I see someone's title, for example.
Probably, I don't want to believe that people really use paid runs. Kinda, yes, it happens, but somewhere in another universe.

Same for the second part. About the first part... I am one of those inexperienced high CP.
I am CP 2.500 with 9K hours but I almost never joined a Group Dungeon run.

I've run some base game vhm solo. I then moved to DLCs in normal but had no patience to figure out what was doable and what not so I only did a couple.

Just recently I decided to start clearing nDLCs: I go in solo, do as much as I can, and if I find a wall I cry for help in chat.
I've watched a lot of Dungeon runs but I don't remember them, so I get surprises - ran in Fang Lair today aaand I had forgotten about the pinning boss and the luminous circle mech at the end. Messed up a bit but I got help and did it.

I always feel the burden of my CPs XD I know someone will think "he got to know everything" and when they discover I don't, someone will likely get mad at me - ehh, whatever... (Luckily guildies are good ^^)

Sometimes when I see a Dunmer with an appropriate name and an appropriate outfit, I wonder if they're TES fans from Morrowind days.

I tend to assume everyone else in a random dungeon group will know the dungeon better than I do. It gets tricky when it's not true, because I don't do dungeons often so I don't know them well at all and inevitably the group has rushed past anything that might have told us what to do.

I guess the race is a good indicator of whether the player is casual or not, someone hinted above about roleplaying. I have a Redguard I switched to tank just to do pledges because she was the only DK I had, but I haven’t run her in anything but easy normal dungeons. Normally I follow the race recommendations but not in this case. I created her many years ago before I knew it made a difference and don’t want to buy a race change token for her.

What about me? I have an argonian, a bosmer, breton, dunmer, Imperial, khajiit, nord, orc and a redguard. Or do you mean you can tell which of those I play casually and which I take more seriously.

Maybe you just like trying out each race, I did that on the beginning. I think for more combat-heavy content you would most likely pick a more favorable race and class because it just makes things easier. It doesn’t make a huge difference, my arcanist is a Khajiit because I do solo stuff on her. I do a lot of stuff on my Khajiit pre-hybridization stamblade because I want her to get achievements when possible, but heavy combat is too painful with her. That is more about the class, though. Most end-game players insist on everything being meta, so I tend to assume that for everyone, regardless of the importance.

I tend to assume anyone who's running around a lot is not that good at mechs and DPS, even though they do tend to avoid more stand in stupid deaths than a person standing still. I assume the person standing still is doing so because they're trusting their healers to keep them up and buff them, and that sometimes they get so concentrated on their rotation they don't get out of stuff they should have.

Ofc I've seen really good players doing the chicken routine 🐔 and really bad ones playing statue 🗿 but that's what I can't help but assume when I see it.

I make this assumption too. It takes a while to stop doing the dps dance while fighting enemies, at least it did for me. I tend to see it a lot when pugging trials and such. I do move around much more with the stamblade though, since taking more than one tick of aoe is not advisable, though the most difficult content she does is normal dungeons so it’s not a huge deal. When on my arcanist in a trial though, I plant her in one spot unless mechanics dictate otherwise.

The more their toon looks like a clown, the harder I expect they can carry my weak bum through content. The jester personality is just a multiplier on top.

I'm lol irl. You just described my sorc.

I have at least one of every race, multiple of every class.

Unless I am in a group with someone the most attention I pay to those blue NPC characters running around is, the occasional look at a good looking outfit or costume, mount etc, then get back to what I was doing.

If I am in a group with someone I will tend to judge based on level, if someone is under 50 I tend to check if they need the quest in a dungeon, other than that I assume someone with even a few hundred CP, will have a basic idea of what they are doing in the dungeon. Often been surprised by the lower level groups performing better than the high CP ones.

_Argonians are all deep down traitors. They pretend to heal you only to let you down when you really need it. The alternative for argonians are daggers. All nightblades waiting to assassinate you in Cyro or better Imperial sewers where they mainly dwell.

_PUGS are genetically designed to implode if they use or cast sinergies.

_Players with a bow in battlegrounds (i will not elaborate on this if you know you know).

_People saying "Hi" in dungeons first are generally weak or slow.

All PvP Players are a just hordes of uncivilized, uneducated barbarians with a heavy addiction issue.

(Yes,I pvp)

Well Ebonheart Pact is kind of like that.

Outside of PvP I assume Khajiit players are genuinely nice, if slightly infantile, people.
