What I really need as a returning player is a Life Without Plus Survival Guide, as my inventory situation is atrocious and spread out across nine characters.
Honestly bro, it’s nearly impossible unless you can farm gold from doing pve for about a year until you unlock maximum bank and inventory space. Then and only then could you really start farming and crafting ONE skill line at a time.
There should be a way for thieves and assassins to get fragments of alliance change tokens that they can combine and can sell to other players. Give us a quest line that allows you to progressively commit crimes within your alliance and disrupt the civil peace of enemy factions to earn their favor in a way to fastrack this endeavor. We need more options to change character appearances, like hair, skin and eye colors. This is something else that can be tied to the criminal underworld similar to the flesh sculptor in Skyrim. Perhaps Mora’s infinite archive or the Mirrormoors can grant fragments of mirrors that allow you to change race and/or class? Grant is new ways to invest in skill lines outside of our original class. I think they will likely do away with the set classes and instead allow for an open sandbox.
I just wanted to expand, perhaps counterfeit pardons can be collected and used as currency for one of these “lite” appearance changes? Perhaps 3, in-line with luminary ink drop rates and such?
I didn't think the class change not being a thing til I went to FFXIV around Necrom coming out. There you can do all 19 (soon to be 21) jobs" on one toon with a great built-in armory system. I played ESO for 7 full years before taking a break. It seems like a lot is changing, we will see for the best or not. It's been so long now I will probably have to rejoin guilds and find new trial teams. I love the combat and kind of miss my Magblade. I am interested in the location since it overlaps Oblivion and has some interesting areas. Great video.
Step 0: pick a first character that is good for overworld, basically a class that gives a mix of movement speed buffs and AoE effects Step 1: Get skillpoints for your build to function with all the needed passives for pve while enjoying the story(doing side activities that give more skillpoint). It often includes some pvp because pvp skills can be good, I use often the group mobility buff and caltrops. You also probably may have to focus on hunter/mage guilds, do sommerset storyline and so on Step 2: get to champion lvl 160 asap using party finder Step 3: make 1 to 4 selfish builds for that character using regular dungeons, crafting, overworld sets. You want to enter a guild or something. Gears should be: 1 overworld(aoe + semi passive buffs/mobility/sustain, 1 dungeon(could be tank or heal if you want), 1 solo hard content(optionnal), 1 pvp set(optionnal). Do not min max yet, get the set bonus do not go above purple except weapons, and only if you have money. Step 4(optionnal): use a mythical item per build, it is an inexpensive and decently fast way to increase power level and fun, those items are not always best in slot but are fun to use and spectacular when your gear is mid. Scrying is actually pretty fast and it also gives a gold cushion. Step 5: do whatever you want, doing storylines is not always mandatory Note that is not in the video: managing rerolls is insanely good in ESO because of daily quests. If you have lets say 6 character, target farming some skins(which is also money) or getting crafting materials is in turn 4 or 5 times easier. As long as you master at least 1 class, if you have few rerolls the world is your oyster for 10mn a micromanagement a day and you are a kingpin with 20-30mn a day. In the other hand if you are playing only one character, some things get incredible tedious to grind for.
And thats just joking around about the pronunciation! Very informative video, as i'm contemplating returning to the game after a very long hiatus. Very helpful, informative video!
Why, it good for now but when it launch, in a month most set and skills scribing will be nerf so again is money grab by fooling us then nerf everything and we don't get a refund back.
@mikeMurray-cr8ob I am too but unfortunately they will find a way to nerf everything and I am still upset with necromancer not being fix and now there is 2 weeks I guess to fix it before launch so all I can do is pray to get necromancer fix.
Very, very helpful guide!... I absolutely love it and will be sure to check out more of your content. 👍 Thank you also for adding links to other helpful websites and guides in the description!
Was on the fence about coming back to this game after 8 years but your explanation of how the game works now I have just redownloaded the game and i’m back. Plus D2 is dead now so need something to keep me entertained. ❤
Great work Jake. I plan to start my new player help guild soon. Any noobs on PS EU that choose the 1 true alliance can hit me up. For The Queen! Glory to the Dominion!!!
I haven’t played eso in a little while but warden was my main tank when i played and i had so much fun with it compared to other classes i used for tank in pve aswell as pvp so c+ is kinda low imo 😂 unless its been nerfed to the ground in the past 9 months
I purchased the new gold road upgrade I was told it will come with every chapter that was previously such as necrum, Morrowind etc and also it suppose to come with theif and dark brother hood quest why am I locked and when I try to go to certain area it say get eso plus
Maybe i missed it but what dlc's do i need besides the xpacs? Which ones are important I have quite a few crowns saved up from eso plus years ago and want to grab some of them. Which ones would you consider a must have.
@@Official_JakeClips I have all of those i meant like the smaller ones like the thieves guild. I tried looking for a tierlist on them and the last one someone did was from years ago.
@@chris2236 I should do an updated one, dark brotherhood and thieves guild are both good. If you have extra crowns I’d also consider the assistants that follow you around
@@Official_JakeClips Those assistants, specially ragpicker and merchant are THE BEST! Banker is really situational. My whole game experience got 18O degree turn to better after i got Giladil and Factotum Commerce Delegate. The best investment in my whole TESO life.
Regarding guild traders... someone from guild X places item A on his/her guild trader and I am looking for item A, I have to check all guild traders in the game until I found the one from guild X to buy item A? If I got this right, it is a very good ideea on paper and absolutely horrible in practice from a buyers point of view. Buy this item from guild X here for 10g or go online, search the item to see which guild trader has the cheapest variant, go on that map to buy it cheaper... and to that the fact I am a new player and when I right-click on the map it dosen't zoom out but just switches to the worl map and good luck my friend finding something. Sorry for the rant but this is a massive pain in the ... for me as a new player
Agreed. Stamden is a monster in pvp and best healers in game. Only disagreement I have with you is that they are 5th best tanks behind dk, arcanist, necro, and sorc. But, with this said, they are great tanks unlike Templar.
I stopped playing soon after greymoor dropped. Highly debating returning, but im not looking forward to having to get back up to meta and trying to find a core team.
@@ajr6682 I’d dispute it - did you use a third party keyboard or mouse that auto jiggles or has any macros built in? I saw some Xbox players getting reported on all games just for plugging those in. I know someone who did but was unbanned
All the crap that came out of his mouth is based on group content and pvp. If you don't do any of that's then all races and classes are fine And he is basing his opinion on the meta he claims he isn't talking about.
You did NOT just get me with an opener😂😂... The one time UA-cam didnt skip the first several seconds on a video

Thank you for teaching me about the geelds

Rarely do I like a video in the first 15 seconds but that was the first time I heard a lancelot joke in 2024 you beautiful man.

As far base content vs dlc. Found out the hard way. Played Summerset then Auridon then Blackwood to Grahtwood. Wow. Big difference.
I’m excited
Started with a magsorc, I’m a month in at 305cp and it seems like I’m still learning the basics
I'm cp2187 and still learn new things lol
You rock Jake, appreciate all the work you put into these videos!!
Ive never felt more informed about all types of Gyeeullds 😂
And thats just joking around about the pronunciation! Very informative video, as i'm contemplating returning to the game after a very long hiatus. Very helpful, informative video!
Love it bro! Keep it up!!!
"really can't go wrong with Templar"
*Sweats remembering my first alt*

You said you were gonna talk about companions but never did. I need to know if I need to get one asap…
They’re free value! Sorry about that but definitely they help kill things

Thank you!
Wish there was a class change

I needed this post to understand the joke :D

Great video thanks! My one question is I'm a new player and have no idea to search or filter the crown store on xbox?
It’ll be in the featured section when it comes out :)
Thanks, is their a way to only show free items? I don't see a way of filtering search @@Official_JakeClips

Message me on discord you may have bought the wrong chapter version I can look at it
Maybe i missed it but what dlc's do i need besides the xpacs? Which ones are important I have quite a few crowns saved up from eso plus years ago and want to grab some of them. Which ones would you consider a must have.
The biggest ones I broke down are Necrom if you want the arcanist, Summerset for jewelry crafting, Blackwood for mythics
@@Official_JakeClips I have all of those i meant like the smaller ones like the thieves guild. I tried looking for a tierlist on them and the last one someone did was from years ago.

Yes, this is the worst market system in any game ever. Agree 100%
Dont ever disrespect warden like that again lol #1 healer PVE AND PVP. Top 3 PVP DPS and top 3 PVE tank. #1 group toolkit in game
Fuck Wardens.
100% agree, idk what wardens did to jake, but he clearly has a grudge 😅
Agreed. Stamden is a monster in pvp and best healers in game. Only disagreement I have with you is that they are 5th best tanks behind dk, arcanist, necro, and sorc. But, with this said, they are great tanks unlike Templar.
5th best tank*
@@donovanwahrman4735 They're actually, with scribing, just as powerful as a dk these days. Even more so with ZenDk groups
I stopped playing soon after greymoor dropped. Highly debating returning, but im not looking forward to having to get back up to meta and trying to find a core team.
Tbh necrom is the best expansion in ESO history
Infinite archive sets are beautiful
Ngl I'm so intimidated by so many new things that I've just been farming and furnishing for the last few years 😅 oops
Welcome to the sh[Lag] show
Never heard anyone pronounce guild as geeld
😭 im bad at reading

Down voted due to the Liverpool flag… only messing keep up the good work
Completely disagree! My warden healer is top-tier boss status!
I got permanently banned with no explanation so I permanently deleted lol😂
What did they say?

I say that also too tho. Dps from best to worst is very minor
I stopped watching the video at Daggerfall… 😂
😭
they NEED to fix transmute crystals and how that all works, worst system ever.
How so
Lol
Lol what?
Get crystals, use machine to make gear you previously found….what sort of overhaul do you suggest here?
If this is a safe place ... I must admitt I have always had some raw prejudice against kajhit dirty cat people...ughh....jkjkjkj❤
