quick switch weapons

One of my favorite parts of Skyrim on XBox was being able to quick switch between weapons (such as starting with bow then switching to sword and shield when enemy got within range). Kinect made it super easy with voice commands to switch. Any way to quick switch weapons on ESO? Thanks...

    The tilde button `
    Or you can map it to whatever you want.

    Once you hit level 15 you will get a quick switch between two different weapon sets.

    When you get to level 15, you get a second skill bar, specifically so you can switch between 2 weapon sets. It's just a quick keyboqrd click, and it's pretty much instantanous. :)
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    After level 15 you can do that; I've got it bound to the numpad-0 but I'm sure you can bind it however you like.

    Yeah, the thing that's not listed here is: Quick Switching mid pvp combat is absolutely horrendous at times and can be down right frustrating.... It lags soo bad while quick switching weapons in PVP combat. You'll end up hitting your quick switch button more than once cause you think it didnt work but nope! It's just lag! It lags so bad that it will actually quick switch twice and end up on the same weapon you wanted to switch. (Not computer issues got my self a pretty pricey rig. I run skyrim on ultra settings with graphic enhancing mods and still run smoothly) Zennimax you need to get on this stat. I would really love to see this be fixed in a patch before Craglorn. If this isn't a fixed by Craglorn I will probably be unsubscribing after my 3 month are up. Sorry guys quick switching shouldn't be so hard to fix especially after a beta and almost 2 month of being released.

    Craglorn is released today, but if you are still here, I am betting this is part of the larger issue of lag in general for the Alliance Campaigns. Have you noticed differences in weapon-swapping in small versus large battles, slow vs. peak times? Because if the weapon-swapping delay is tied to server latency, there isn't going to be an easy fix for that individual issue it will have to be part of a larger server overhaul.

    Have you tried closing other programs while playing the game and turning down the graphics settings? However pricey your computer is, these things can make a difference in game play. Good luck!
