23 Essential Tips for ESO in 2023 

Thank you for watching! What tip would you give players for ESO?

The most important tip...play how you want. Seriously.

used to be really into the game 2 years ago, had a membership and everything. Finally got it on pc a few weeks ago during sale and me and my gf have been playing it day and night after buying the four guilds pack and your videos have been helping a lot man, thanks for the content

you actually addressed a lot of basic concerns that new/returning players have that other guides completely skip over for some reason, so i really appreciate this. thank you for sharing. 💖✨

Bonus tip number 24 don't run through areas without looking around first. Take everything in watch and listen to the your quest. If you're in a group that over has already done these things they will probably run through. But I'm telling you if you do solo and do you want to look around take your time don't run like everybody. Keep in mind there's so many beautiful things to look at on this game. They're wonderful stories with major actors doing the voices. It's a simply incredible. Like with this beautiful man says take your time. Take it all in and enjoy it. I've been playing for about five years now. I'm still learning about this BIG BEAUTIFUL GAME

if it was mentionned and I didn't realise then I'm sorry but pretty simply: don't forget to join the fighter's guild and mage's guild when you make it past the tutorial zones, which would be reaching Daggerfall for the Daggerfall covenant, Davon's Watch for the Ebonheart Pact and Vulkhel Guard for the Aldmeri Dominion. You can also get a quest for the undaunted skill line at lvl 10 from the Rosy Lion in Daggerfall, the Fish Stink in Davon's Watch and I believe Salted Wings Tavern in Vulkhel Guard. Those are very useful skill lines to train as you play content.

Just started ESO and leveling a night blade. Following the guide on zones in order and doing MSQ. Really enjoying just slowing down and taking all the quests in one at a time.

I love how well made these vids are. Absolutely have the feel of major content creators, you deserve so much more recognition. I really appreciate the work you do, keep it up man!

Played ESO during the beta and launch, for a year or so. Then came back to it a couple of months ago. Your vids helped me get back into it, sooo much had changed in the 6 years I was away. Thank you for the awesome content :) I love being back in ESO

Loved your video, thanks for the great content!

I just joined the ESO Universe four days ago during sale and I'm hooked! I bought the Deluxe Collection even if I already owned the base game. The Armor Station tip is the one I most like! Very Detailed and Informative video! You earned my sub!

Re the Armory system: You get 2 build slots to start. Make the first one a base build with no morphs. You can wait until you get the change scrolls for attributes and skills, so you don't have to pay gold at a shrine. Keep this first build completely blank -- no attributes, skills, morphs or champion points chosen. You can always reload this build when you want to try out a new build later, or when you need to change morphs or something. Never pay again. Buy extra slots from the crown store as you need them - money well spent.

New subscriber. Thank you for your hard work on this tips and tricks video. It's much appreciated. 💪💜

First, really good video! Get your companions as early as possible! You can level them up as you level up. Pay attention to their skills too. For example Mirri Elendis works well as a healer. All of them have the ability to cause some major damage too.

Love watching these vids while I wait to get back in the game

Great tips a lot I didn’t know as hav just started so thank you 👍

ESO+ is a must for if you want to craft (now, or ever). However, it is ALSO a must if you obsessively loot *everything* you see even if you don't want to craft! Why? Because it will siphon off all the crafting materials to the craft bag, leaving room for shiny things :D As for the Mount Speed quest. I recently did this and can attest that it didn't exactly follow the guide, but I was able to make it though. Also at the end, the stat page did not indicate that my riding speed increased - it had the same 3% or whatever it was already (from training). However, upon completing and selecting the Passive (which also didn't really specify an increase in speed) - it was definitely faster. So it still seemed to work for me, even though the game wasn't really saying it would/should.

With so many different tips, you really need timestamps.

This was helpful when dusting off this game for myself, and very helpful to my wife and brother who are playing for the firs time. I am also a new sub - had to, this was fantastic content. Salute!

Excellent video

Very good video!

Amazing video, thanks for the content. Also for those who may be considering playing. It is now $60 for all expansions up and including the current BUT WAIT there is more. It also contains the next expansion included. Fantastic deal for a game I had never tried until this last weekend.

very well spoken good sir. Note on the final tip: take your time in duns aswell. Instead of sprinting through it like dinner is already cooling down.

Thank you

does the smart rng stuff also works with coffer related drops? because i swear to god i had everything but deadly dagger bound and it did not drop from like 12 deadly set coffers from cyrodiil. Same goes with monster set shoulders.

Was only missing fire staff of the Red Mountain when I decided to try a fire build for my dk. no trouble at all running around Crow's Wood killing bosses until I got the right trait and can bind the staff

Could you add further on the bind tip? What add on can I download to auto bind for me?

Thanks for the great vid I haven't played eso since the second dlc recently grabed the necrom pre-order and been playing but now I know nothing everything is different lmao

What do you mean with "dot" when talking about abilities around 18:30?

I was able to pick up the Blackwood pack for $19 before Christmas last year so got it and all before it like the base game, morrowind, summerset and all the rest. Great deal. Lvln up a new warden and necro now.

Getting the Alliance line up to 3 still works, did it a few days ago. It might be in the PvP zone, but it's in the safe spot so people shouldn't fear getting ganked. The enemy can't get to you where the quest takes place.

Never got very far but I've recently returned. This video was helpful, thanks man 😊

brah u got this again nice vid

What helps me a great deal is with the most frequently used abilities I place them on 3, 4 and 5 slots as the reach is easier and I can then use my pinky and ring finger to anchor my fingers over the A and S keys for movements. Keys for dots I don't have to hit as much I put on 1 and 2.

when it comes to the armor you gain exp even if you don't have the line unlocked, so say you have 2 pieces of heavy on but never equip the third piece you're still gaining heavy armor exp and once you equip three pieces can see your progress :D

as an eso player with 95 hours on record this helped so much thanks man

Best advice… have fun 😀

got a question, to play arcanist class in june, you'll have to own necrom right?

that take breaks tip is huge. so much to do, and builds can't be created in 5 minutes, but that's what makes it fun. just understand it's a time commitment with fun payoffs

Omg thank you for making this video. I just started playing eso with a friend and he was not this good at explaining things haha.

"the next tip is tip number 10, because that comes after nine" HEHSDJKHSGDJSHDJSHEH THAT TOOK ME TF OUT BEFORE I COULD FINISH PROCESSING YOUR SERIOUS EXPLANATION OF SKILL LINE LEVELLING that was so unserious and unprovoked

If anybody is looking to buy this, I bought the high isle edition for £11 through cd keys last week. Comes with all previous dlc, worth it

So, after the base it's $60 for all the expansions OR $40 if I just need the latest if I have the rest. But ESO Pluse comes with all the expansions except the newest. Is the best move to get Plus and then the upgrade?

I have tested the pvp mount speed. For short distances it's actually better to run-sprint because it takes 2 sec to get on the mount. I've tested it 10 sec gallop +2 sec mounting=12, run-sprint=13. I don't have any orther speeding buffs :)

Serious question what should I buy to get all content like dlc and dungeons

The most important tip: don’t ask for PvE IC it Cyrodiil, the PvP is part of the experience and is part of the fun

I have never used the Cyrodyll quest to level skills in Alliance War - Assault and the passive continuous attack, which gives 30% mount speed (you only need the 1 point in this skill). Instead, when I reach level 10 I go to the battle master, pick up the quest he has to do a battle ground and do a 1 or 2 battlegrounds. It levels the skills just fine.

I just wish I can take on more than 25 quests 😂

I really wish you still made eso content!

You didn't add the link/short for the paper alliance war 30% mount speed increase deal? Maybe I missed it.. Either way, Subbed!!

In regards to the armor leveling, you only need a single piece of heavy, light, or medium.

As someone that's completely obsessed with this game eso+ is a must especially if you want to be a master crafter

You have multiple slots, try different characters, and many things are account based so it can actually make things easier. Ember is easy for a new character to get and is very close to the start point in High Isles, and she says the funniest things. Log on and do crafting missions daily if possible for the log in bonus. crafting is best done if you have ESO+ due to the crafting bag

I've always had my front bar for mobs and back bar for bossing both are similar but different enough for 2 bars

Good tips.

The last expansion I have is Summerset. If I want to get all the others, what would be the cheapest way?

is that skill UI an addon? cause normally mine is at the left and it looks huge af

Very glad you started with clarification on buying it which itself can be overly complicated

Play it your way! For me, keeping it fun is the main thing and overpowered builds lead to boredom as everting becomes too easy. My current build is considered the worst, a stamina night blade that uses sword and shield, there is no way to overpower anything and victories are earned. I can solo dungeons, but it can be hard to do and rewarding when I get done.

Haven't been able to test it but I'm not sure whether the curation works per character or is accountwide post CP160. Anyone know?

So how long before High Isle is free in ESO plus ?

Been loving eso middle of 2023 just wish I could use MnK on next gen console would make it amazing

I play duel roles a lot, like Healer / DPS One my main bar I put main build idea like Healer and on the back bar is the DPS build. Kind of one bar builds. My healing key is 4 on all my chars so I do not get confused when is my healing is. Spamables AOE, or most used skills in order are 1, 2, 3 and 5 is big but least used skill. I used the arrow keys and number pad area on the KB not the usually WASD most gamer's used. I use base Healer-DPS "mode" for solo play and such, but in Group content if needed I can go "full Healer Mode" if the group need it. In full healer mode, I can not do much damage but it will suck for solo play. (same problem for tanks). For solo play. I can do damage and content, but can healer too to some extent. Hard content or silly players, I can step back just work on keep them alive more than doing damage. Tanks face like issues. I do more solo content than group content, However, I like to play support the best if I am in a group.

Your advice is pure Gold for us passionate ESO total noobs!!! 💪😂🎉🙏

On ps you can buy the collection version even if you have the game instead of the upgrade I did it having already owned it and got everything

Thank you for this. I am brand new to eso but not MMOs. I am 2 weeks in with limited game play due to work, so mainly weekends. I am in love with the questing, to what I feel is a detriment, because other than public dungeons I've yet to run any thus far. I am now 48 and the Undaunted seems daunting since I'm a new player. I think I have ptsd from random Dungeons from other toxic MMOs, I'm calling you out WoW. I play on NA and have had no luck getting replies on any guild applications. How understanding are player for Undaunted dailies towards newer players?

A very big tip IMO is also that you should NOT farm hard to get builds until you're 160 CP. Only then, you will not have to upgrade your gear again

Wait a minute, if I buy the High Isle Collection I get it and ALL THE OTHER EXPANSIONS!? Do I get the other expansions with eso plus?

Hey brotha, love your content been watching for a while now. Is there any way you could make a video like this but for veteran players? Been looking around for one and can't find one.

Great video #24 - ask a friend or the guild to craft blue or purple training armor - in case you like a XP boost.

Love your videos but wish you put in chapter markers

I wanna get into it again but my friends won't join in tho 😞

If you are a new player, take what this guy says with a grain of salt. A lot of what he says is very much true, but there are some serious and minor inaccurate and missing information. For starters, he is wrong on where the base alliance faction quests start. There are starter islands that you go to before the locations he mentioned. They are catered to new players and will ease you into the game a bit more. Lucky Ghost has a great guide for what order to do quest in on his website. The one major issue that I saw was the info he gave on leveling skill lines. The only lines that level the way he said are weapon and class lines, the others all level up in various ways specific to the line in question. He said the guild lines level up by putting them on your bar. They do not. The fighter requires killing undead and dedra, Mage collecting lorebooks and doing the dailies, undaunted requires dungeons, delves, and dailies. The one thing I wholeheartedly agree with him on is what he said about builds. Definitely don't chase metas, and just play what and how you want.

Disable double tap roll dodge and put in on mouse shoulder.

Where is the blacksmith station in crown store for free??

wait Im confused. - so I'm a Bosmer Warden and I bought the game with Morrowind, and it's where I started my game. Should I leave Vvardenfell and start my game someplace else? Where?

i started this game recently and i am running around like a headless chicken, it's very confusing which mission to take etc. I played Knight online quite a lot previously so i am just farming random mobs right now to level my character without knowing what to do in this game.

I could be wrong but I thought only the final boss drop was curated in dungeons?

Your menu looks so different then mine, mine looks the same way it did 4 years ago, very old looking

what to look for if someone wants to join a guild. So many people promote their guilds in zone chat

A great way to get gold is mats,mats,mats. I get tired of fighting all the time and just take off to do some mat hunting.

If you have a sub, you can get the 30% mount speed increase without ever doing PvP. As a daily reward ... which you get when you sub ... you will eventually get the equivalent of PvP points. One or 2 of these will easily upgrade Assault enough to get the skill line open.

You can sell to a vendor unknown gear and once they are not available for you to buy back you automatically learn how to make them.

I just want the game to have a class change token. Starting a new toon after beating every story until blackwood and having to starting again is just sad. Im a nightblade and I really wanna try necro and warden but having to unlock everything again just turn me down. Hoping for a new weapon in the next chapter

I used to just play how I want and have fun since I love games like this. Massive open world, shit ton of players and things to do. I’ve done this for years until I started taking breaks from eso, coming back and then all of a sudden people have op armor. I really enjoy pvp because I play pve way too much. I’d say I’m pretty decent at the game but lose ridiculously fast to people who’s gear sets is just better. I normally don’t mind losing because the experience helps you learn but it really seems like going against some people is like fighting Thanos.

Only thing that didn’t seem to be true for me. I tried eso on launch so I already had the base game but no expansions. Bought the necrom (newest expansion at the current time) upgrade but it did not give me access to any of the previous expansions. So if you’re someone like me who doesn’t have the previous expansions, you have to buy the full necrom package not the upgrade. Assuming you aren’t going to get eso+. Wonderful video overall with loads of great tips and info

God praise regional prices, i got my ESO copy (necrom collection) at 12 bucks) Gonna ignore summerset collection I bought a loooong time ago...

THis was just on sale recently too. 16 bucks for eveyrthing.

i wish there was a class change token because i started a new character as warden and got into deshan story from bleackrock i couldnt take it anymore so boring i had to start a new character nightblade is so much more fun

You look and sound so familiar, like someBrahdy that I used to know. Crazy

You should really make a curse video. My dumb ass been paying people to bite me for werewolf or even buying it from crown store. There is a little hircine quest in the rift that gives you the werewolf curse for free in like 10 minutes

1st oh yeah brah the goat🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I think that it should be stressed that when you buy pack with expansions then you get only chapters and not all expansions. I also through that I will get everything with the bundle and I was suprised. New player does not know the difference.

Honestly id say just always buy the base game and get ESO+, you get all the dlc, if only for the duration of ESO+, but you get all the extra benefits ESO+ offers and you can always use the monthly free crowns to buy the DLCS you want for free. So say you buy ESO when its on sale for 7 and you buy eso+ for a month at a time your spending just over $22, sure you gotta pay 15 every month but simply add it into your budget and you wont regret it

If you like feeling like a god play magicka templar :)

Principal fact: TESO IS LIKE THE REAL LIFE. If u work hard, if u choose right, if u training a lot, if u have merchant skills, if u can accept others like they are, if u socialize in the right places with the right persons, etc. U will get the best TESO experience. If u only play 2 hours every week, u will be a homeless x avatar forever and being poor in TESO is so ugly like in real life.

improvements = relative ... hence so many folks playing something else atm haha

game is free on game pass , paid 28$ for all the dlc with the cd key

Base game is free if you have game pass on xbox

I'm like #16. Come on people, we can hit 23 likes no problem. Thank you for all your informative videos over the years. Keep up the great work! 👍
