Oh, that’s right, you reminded me. The 3 research slots aren’t per character, they’re per crafting skill, aren’t they? It’s been a while.
Yeah, I believe so! I should also caution that my advice is 2 years out of date, I could be wrong on everything for all I know.
For one thing, they just added jewelcrafting!
Yeah, that’s what I was wondering with regard to Summerset. I saw nothing that started the crafting quests.
It’s been such a long time since I’ve played, I’m feeling quite lost.
Ah! Maybe you can teleport back to Auridion/Daggerfall/< Pact starting city > and do the tutorial there?
So what if I don’t want to craft? Like, ever? Can one avoid it entirely?
Yup. You’ll always want your character to have a food buff, but you can buy crafted food from guild stores. Leveling provisioning is probably a time saver in the long run though.
When you’re leveling/questing you can get by with whatever drops. In the end game if you need specific craftable sets/items you can trade/buy from others.
Yeah, I never crafted anything, but I don’t do real endgame things like raids, I just consume the single-player content then stop playing until they release more.
In case anyone is curious, this was a non-issue. Since ESO account is linked to my steam account I was able to log into eso’s website, hit “Redeem code” and enter my GMG code.
According to patch notes they removed red shell this morning.
I ended up getting Summerset. Haven’t done anything beyond walking around, but it’s pretty. One thing that I miss from Guild Wars 2 is the sense of scale; you walk around in the city hub, but the backdrop depicts a much bigger city beyond. A Tamriel with a population of ~1000 that you can ride across in less than an hour is weird.
Yep, once it became public, it was clear that would happen.
So I just finished the Summerset main quest. Saved our “reality” once again. You’re welcome.
It’s a typical follow the quest icon romp like the rest of the game. Mindlessly enjoyable. I mostly bought the expansion so that I could get a hold of the sloads set for pvp and the jewelry crafting as well.
In another note I have mostly come to terms with having to wield a fire staff. Sometimes you just have to go with the flow and ride the river down to the great proc sea.
Come to terms? Fire staves are awesome.
They do have their charm but I loved the dual wield swords look. Loved it so much I was willing to hit like a wet noodle with my light attacks.
I went all in with the fire staff now. Ground out a Zaan mask and shoulders and now pew pew from close range. Pretty fun actually.
Look schmook, it’s all about how much damage they deal. Fire and lightning staves, so fun!

Thank you, you just convinced me to wait to get this! :-)
I was close because it looks so pretty - but I wouldn’t be playing it much for a while anyways so I might as well wait. Maybe I’m getting better at this :-)
Ouch! :) I feel bad.
I did have a good time and got some skill points, exp for CP and the scenery is really nice. They did a great job on that. The main island has a lot of POI’s and all that but it is basically just more of the same.
Well, if you buy before tomorrow you also get morrowind free (unless you have it already.) I left just before morrowind so it was a good enough deal to pull me back in.

Don’t, you saved me some money!
Yeah, that tempted me a lot too. I figure they will go on sale again. I won’t know what laptop I will have with me on my travels until tomorrow and it will likely not be that powerful, so I’d rather play it when I have a machine that will handle the graphics well.
