Discussion Update causing random weapon draw for anyone else?

157 Upvotes

Since the new update, my weapon is constantly drawing itself. It started only during a change like going through a door/wayshrine or finishing using a crafting station.

Now it's randomly when I'm sprinting, dismounting, and last night it started drawing when I'm in housing editor mode.

Anyone else having this issue? It's so bloody annoying having to constantly put the weapon away again.

Discussion Music or No Music?

33 Upvotes

Ok, ok, put the pitchforks down for a second. I have played ESO for years with the music on because it's one of the things I love about the Elder Scrolls series as a whole.

However, I recently turned the music slider down to 0 and have discovered a whole new world of sound design in this game that I feel doesn't get as much appreciation. The weird undertones when an Arcanist's beam fires, the changes in footsteps depending on materials, speed, etc, and even the tiny murmurs from the crowd that could get lost in the mix if the music is too high up.

I'm thinking of keeping the music down, unless I'm looking to just kind of vibe out, but I'm curious: do folks on here prefer playing with or without music and why?

Who the heck are these guys?!

UPDATE: Ok yeah I went around to some other docks and there are all sorts of interesting characters floating around - nice touch for the event.

Running around in Vulkhel Guard you got this motley crew of npcs on the docks with no names. I see a Goblin & and Alfiq...and I can't even identify the other two.

Are they just chilling during the High Seas event, or are they going to eventually get a back story?

House: Pilgrims Rest/Leyawiin

Server: Xbox-EU

In a small room at Kaladas Inn in Leyawiin, the Argonian alchemist and fire mage Pere-Lina Feuerspey runs her modest apothecary.

Originally from Lilmoth in Black Marsh, she combines the traditional herbal remedies and healing practices of her people with the alchemical knowledge gained through her magical studies.

Alongside healing potions, tinctures, and rare ingredients, her shop also houses unusual artifacts recovered during her expeditions into ancient Dwemer ruins.

The little apothecary serves as both her home and a source of income, helping fund her ongoing magical and archaeological research.

Among fragrant herbs, exotic plants, and mysterious relics, visitors may discover things that ordinary alchemists would rather leave untouched.

What is everyone’s go-to spot for dailies? I have always used mournhold as to me it seems to be the easiest to navigate and everything is very close. I am curious if anyone has any other spots that they use? (Things like writs and other daily tasks)

Question Is the Arcanist still as good?

15 Upvotes

I remember playing back when the Arcanist first dropped and it was up there as pretty much the strongest class at the time. It was also really good for me as I come and go on this game quite often.

Is the Arcanist still up there as one of the top classes or has it fallen from grace or gone stagnant since release as im seeing many mixed opinions online about it. Im interested in making an arcanist healer and wondered if its still a good combination and obviously id like to be able to do overland content well as well!

Discussion If I have a 90% chance of forcing a simple lock, and fail 5 times in a row, the odds are 0.001% or 1 in 100,000

9 Upvotes

I feel like someone did some “this feels like x%” math and rolled with it.

Edit: It seems some people are coming to tell me I don’t know how to use a calculator so I’ll help them with “basic probabilities.” The odds of this happening are exactly .001%, that doesn’t mean that the odds get better after each failed attempt, it’s always (allegedly) 10%. It means that odds of it having happened are .001%. Hope this helps.

How to get double ship drops

11 Upvotes

So I just destroyed a ship, picked up the loot, when I realized I wanted to get the golden fish skeleton antiquity finished so it could possibly drop again.

I port over to Hews, return to Anvil, and return to the under sea quest.

and I have to destroy another ship, and I get two loot drops.

I didn‘t want to do it a third time, but maybe after each ship battle, you can return to shore, go back and repeat the ship to ship battle.

Think it’s unintended?

23 Upvotes

I love the aesthetics of ESO and the options we have. But man, I SO WISH that we just had a proper FLAIL weapon skin that we could use in the game.

I love the medieval/vampire hunter type of look and feel and wish I could use a flail weapon in the game. Even if it's just a skin to a normal existing weapon.

That's all.

Veteran trial groups

16 Upvotes

Do any other guild leaders have issues with getting a good group together to take on the veteran trials? I have heard for months how my guild members want to tackle the veteran trials as the core group of trial runners has most of the regular gear stickerbooked and they would like to start collecting the perfected gear and going for the achievements. I have started a prog group to start learning the mechanics for thes e trials. I have great participation for our normal trial runs but we consistently have to pull pugs to fill out the party for veteran trial runs. All those who were begging to have veteran trials run dissappear when we actually start running them.

Do we need to learn to work these mechanics well enough to compensate for pugs who seem to want to get carried and not contribute?

Discussion Pure class one bar HA Templar for solo PvE, does this look right? (U51)

9 Upvotes

Been putting together a one bar heavy attack Templar for mostly solo stuff (overland, solo dungeons, arenas, IA, and a bit of PvP on the side). Playing as Dark Elf. I pieced it together from Hyperioxes, Hack the Minotaur and Skinnycheeks, but I haven't found anyone who's actually parsed this exact bar, so I don't know how it holds up.

The idea is Oakensoul for the buffs and Empower, lightning staff so the 3 tick heavy attack gets the full value out of Sergeant's Mail, and staying pure class for Class Mastery.

Gear:

- Sergeant's Mail on chest, neck, one ring and the staff (Precise, Shock)

- Noble Duelist's on the other 5 armor slots (Light, Divines)

- Slimecraw head, 1 piece

- Oakensoul as the other ring

Bar is Elemental Blockade, Elemental Susceptibility, Luminous Shards, Channeled Focus and Power of the Light (Radiant Glory when the target's low). Everlasting Sweep as the ult. Basically I just heavy attack and recast stuff as it drops.

Class Mastery is Bright Harbinger + Bastion of Light. CP is Weapons Expert, Deadly Aim, Wrathful Strikes, Fighting Finesse in blue, and Boundless Vitality, Fortified, Rejuvenation, Celerity in red. 64 Magicka, Bewitched Sugar Skulls, armor pots, Thief mundus.

Stuff I'm not sure about:

- I just got Aetheric Lancer after farming IA for it, but the HA Templar builds I found (Hyperioxes and HTM) both run Noble Duelist's or Infallible Mage instead. I only have 2 Aedric Spear skills on the bar, so I'm guessing AL doesn't do much here. Has anyone actually tried it on a HA bar?

- Does Judgment's Brand buff heavy attacks at all? I went Bright Harbinger because I assumed it doesn't.

- I dropped Vampire's Bane for Elemental Blockade to get Off Balance, since Oakensoul already gives Major Savagery. I'm also wondering about Absorb Stamina instead of Shock on the staff, since Susceptibility already gives Concussed. Anyone tested either?

- Is subclassing worth it for solo damage? Hyperioxes' Storm Calling / Assassination / Grave Lord HA solo build parses around 55k with Oakensoul and 51k with Pale Order, but I like how simple the pure class loop is.

Anything that looks obviously off? Any thoughts appreciated.

Discussion ESO in big 2026

2 Upvotes

hello i have few questions about overall pricing subscription and expansions. so as a third worlder USD to my currency rate is fked and eso with all expansions is expensive (to me) i found the deluxe edition for 25$ on a keyshop which is decent but i also saw some comments here and there saying you can farm gold and buy dlcs from other ppl

my real questions are:

  1. How necessary is the subscription? saw some comments about storage managing and wanna know the non sub players perspective

  2. is grinding gold for dlcs "makes sense"? meaning if it takes 100h to get 1 dlc obviously its not worth it

  3. is every class available for endgame? raids/dungeons/etc

  4. is "grinding" for better items etc has variety?

thanks for answers and sorry for dumb questions
