Tip #1 is Literally a GAME CHANGER!

With a new Chapter and the new Arcanist class coming soon, there’s bound to be plenty of new players checking out The Elder Scrolls Online for the first time. Unfortunately for them, ESO is not particularly well known for having the best in-game tutorials! In fact, there’s a ton of information that ESO never tells you about, which I’ve compiled in this video! Even if you’ve played ESO before I guarantee you there are some hidden gems in this list that even I didn’t know about, so make sure to watch all the way until the end to get every knowledge nugget you can! Tip #1 is an absolute game changer!

This guide will be great for ESO Beginners, Intermediate and even Advanced Players - thanks for watching, and be sure to let me know any additional tips I missed down in the comments!

    Pro tip: Traveling to guild or group members is always free. Even if they aren’t where you want to go, it’s a quick and free way to get to a wayshrine then you just port to where you need to go. Ever wonder how groups are getting to dolmens, harrowstorms, etc so fast? This is how. When you port to a group member you’ll auto port to the nearest shrine to them without the need to run to the wayshrine. A guild roster is also a great way to collect wayshrine locations you don’t have.

    Another good tip for people that have the DLC is to get the sugar bowl suites apartment in Rimmen for 3k gold, (Vulkhel Guard in Auridon for people that don't have DLC), you can teleport (outside) to it for free and puts you right at a wayshrine. I do that sometimes if I need to do a lot of jumping around. Really you never have to pay for a wayshrine if you are willing to wait through an extra loading screen.

    Stage 4 Vampires can talk to any vendor, banker etc if you use Mesmerize on them

    another thing not mentionned about the gear reconstruct feature: Deconstructing a gear piece that was reconstructed always refunds 25 transmute crystals. This leads into 2 possible ways to take advantage of this. 1. You can reconstruct a gear set to use during an update after collecting the whole set at the minimal cost. Then if that set becomes obsolete in a later patch, you can deconstruct it, get the transmutes back and reconstruct the next set you're going to use with the crystals you got back. 2. If you are close to the transmute crystal carrying capacity, you can use this to store 25 transmute crystals into single slot items. I currently have 20 random reconstructed gear pieces banked which are worth 500 transmute crystals total and I am sitting close to the cap at 919/1000 crystals. Therefore, I could spend crystals to gear up a new character, then deconstruct my gear pieces I have stored and get some crystals back. To be the most efficient though it needs to be used on a set you have fully collected and also not a mythic as you cannot deconstruct mythics (at least as far as I'm aware).
  • @ScrumpyP
    I've spent literally hours watching Beginners guides on ESO and this is by far the most important one I've seen. Thank you Hack!
  • A neat wayshrine trick: if you're near the ocean and are too lazy to run to the nearest wayshrine you can just swim out (for about 8-10 seconds) and get killed by fish - then you get an option to respawn at the nearest wayshrine for free (works well for unlocking undiscovered wayshrines too). Same thing if you leap off a cliff and die.

    It took me over 200 hours of playtime to realize that red weapon icon on the bottom of my screen meant my weapon had no charges left for the enchant to trigger. It was a Bow and Arrow icon, like duh I don't have a bow equipped.... And I wish I knew about stablemaster training from day 1 and also slowly researched all the traits for crafting instead of vendoring all that gear. When I hit CP 160 I should have been using a full set of "training" trait gear for easier open world/public dungeon farming. In a way it kinda feels good to learn something new each time I play rather than being swamped and quit the first week.
  • @cain9851
    Been playing this since game day 1 when vet White Gold Tower was considered the end game and still didn't know you could cast while blocking
  • @bentwin3616
    Perfect video every player needs when starting ESO. Most of the questions you adressed bothered me during leveling my first character up. thumbs up
  • Great job. Your videos are always informative and helpful. Keep up the amazing work.
  • Thanks, I have played for a long time but still picked up a tip or two. I didn't realize I could leave a skill for an unequipped weapon up to get experience on it as well as my active weapon. I just automatically switched out and didn't consider the possibilities. Now I am going to get ALL my weapons leveled while doing overland content.
  • as always, the data presented by you and your team is spot on, even though the free travel between players on you friends list or within a guild was not mentioned brings about the memory of how we learned, as you did by trial and error, observation. or paying attention to in game chat, etc. I am still disappointed that those of us who have played since 2014 have done a lot of redoing to add to our equipment lists because we did not have the storage, or knowledge of the changes to be brought about in in future chapters. Nevertheless, thank you for I enjoy your insight.
  • @chiefexecutive
    Man I am overwhelmed ! There is so MUCH to learn ! It’s crazy !
  • @eatatjoecs
    Wow, been playing for many years but I still learned something - I've only been using the Transmute stations for getting every item to Mundus Stone, I didn't realize that it also meant you can make alt gear! Thank you!

    Ty Hack as usual well done. Over the years I learned a few tips that can help people. With the pvp events coming ,(for non pvp people) do a ton of quests before the event and turn in during the event. Also, during the pvp events of your doing the 1 a day quests you start in IC do a quest then hit L port to cryo do your quest turn it in hit L port to IC turn in the quest you did there then use the exit to port out. No need to navigate through the tunnels or die/run to wayshires. Last one I'll mention now 😊 is leveling mages guild. Forget the guild quests, start in your alliance zone and get all the books, sky shards, public dungeon skill points, you get bonus guild XP for finishing zones. By the time your done (3-5 hrs) not only will you have the mages guild done, you'll have 25-35 skill points and a good portion of the psijic quest line (wayshires needed ) unlocked. Ty Hack for the post. P.s. for IC best way to get all 6 quests done, pick them all up first, start in any zone and exit on the left or right side, but once you pick your path, you always head in that direction/ aka all left or all right.
  • @davery07
    So well explained. Your videos rock! Well done.
  • @judsdragon
    id add in that bosses also have a small chance of dropping a named piece which is calculated on a different loot table percentage as a bonus drop so possible to get 2 drops from 1 boss, so glad someone has finally mentioned the ship/caravan route iv been telling people about in zone chat for years that nobody ever seems to know about, on a new character i travel to all 15 base game capitals and pick up the nearest skyshards and with just a 50% xp scroll u can quite easily get 5 or 6 levels worth of xp and roughly 6 skill points worth of skyshards as well as the points u get from leveling which can be very helpful for new players, the quick cast was something that took me almost 3 yrs to find out about lol but id add in the combat cues u scrolled past to get to it and maxing out their brightness and changing the colours to something hard to miss like passion pink or tourquoise, as much as i like being able to make a mythic again for 25 gems its a little annoying that u cannot break it down again to get those 25 gems back, i understand not being able to break the original mythic down but the reconstructed ones made entirely from gems should be allowed to be broken down imo, another great vid hack with some very useful tips that took me a few years to gather as well keep the vids coming theyre always much appreciated
  • @arachnofan73
    Figuring out where to get to other places was my main issue. Thanks!
  • Utilising houses can be a big benefit too. I use our guild house to do master writs and then port to the Snugpod house in Grathwood. There are a few benefits to this one it costs nothing and if you have a bounty you can swim to the writ vendors to dodge the guards. It is even better now you can port to the outside of the house.
