Totaly agree best launch ive ever been in there are some bugs the most annoying I find it the UI crash pop up window always happens mid fight grrrr

Was really nice to speak to some of you in game and I had a great day with TOG guild made me feel very welcome and they are good fun

@Demigos

O latex you able to edit first post and put peoples ID's in there just a thought?

Yeah i'll do that at some point today.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Latex how long was you on last night hehe

Only till about 1am.

At least 10 of the guild I'm in haven't slept since launch.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Ok i'm in the middle of formulating a new OP. I'm going to ask if they can reset the OP so we can start fresh.

Could people please post their @username

And if you have any useful links, please post them too.

Thanks.

 

[LateX'Dog]

I was going to ask how this was possible(!) Questing isn't a particularly fast way to level in this game, and grinding mobs is hopeless due to gimped xp.

There is a dungeon/quest in Cryodiil that scales with level and you just repeat that.

I would personally classify it as exploiting.

 

[LateX'Dog]

It's not really an exploit if you are playing within the games rules. Game design 101 here. Players will take the fastest route, regardless of tedium. They should have known players would do this and put a lockout on that type of quest/dungeon.

He's doing nothing different than how you level in WoW, which is basically repeat the same set of dungeons over & over. In his case, it was just the one

You could argue that the it wasn't an intended feature and using it in excess is exploiting it.

A bit like your car can do 120mph, but the law stops you.

@Latex:

Some info for the front page. My guild is going to be hitting Scourge Campaign and our website is: http://griffonknight.com/

We might not have a huge presence in this game (people are waiting on CU) but we should be able to have some effect.

Thanks, added.

My 1st character name is Asendaric, so I am @Asendaric then????

Level 4 Nightblade

No, your in game name is your login username.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Updated OP with new names.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Updated OP

 

[LateX'Dog]

Sorry Latex can you change mine mate its all lowercase thanks

my mistake

Done.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Level 17 now. Weapon swap is amazing.

On a more novel note, I think I'm the highest level provisioner on the EU server at 45.

 

[LateX'Dog]

TOG is going with Scourge, though we are monitoring the campaign populations to see how they go. I'm guessing we wont really see how the campaign populations pan out until the end of the first full weekend of ESO this weekend.

Scourge is really low pop

Think we are going Blackthorn.

 

[LateX'Dog]

When do you start getting Imperial flour and honeycomb Latex? I've got a blue sweetroll recipe that is begging to be used but not come across the ingredients yet (I've not got to Camlorn yet so you can tell where I am).

Well there is 5 guys in our guild who are 30 and they are spamming me with ingredients. So I don't actually know the answer!

 

[LateX'Dog]

Nice work latex you must be playing non stop to be that high! I've been playing loads about 10 hours Sunday and about 11 on monday ! I've taken provisioning too, only level 11 though any tips? I'm doing clothing level 6,enchanting level 5 and provisioning and my house mate is doing blacksmithing,wood work and alchemy so we have covered all crafting between us and sharing resources

Auto loot turned on and loot every crate, barrel, sack and so on. Dump them in your bank and carry on. Then do mass cooking, cook everything regardless of how Mich you net in xp.

Get guild mates to send you mats and recipes to help too.

Played non stop on launch day and then from 3pm Monday to Thursday. So not as much as some

 

[LateX'Dog]

The North American and European Megaservers are offline for maintenance. We expect them to be back online shortly. Please keep an eye on the Service Alerts channel for any updates.

 

[LateX'Dog]

None atm. Whats the go to site for add-ons if there is one?

http://www.esoui.com

But i think its down.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Whilst technically a catman has better passives for a NB, it won't make too much difference in the end. My NB's an Orc as I wanted the sprinting bonus, I'll spend more time running to or away than fighting in cyrodil anyway

Play what you like. Leave the theory crafting & minmaxing to people with too much time on their hands imo.

Couldn't agree more.

Bosmer Nightblade checking in here

 

[LateX'Dog]

whats everyones feeling on the game so far?

Probably the best MMO i've played in a very very long time.

Its such a breath of fresh air to a stagnant WoW clone genre.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Is it just me, or is the official forum for ESO absolutely hideous. Why couldn't they leave it in the old style, like the singleplayer tes forums.

Anyway, seems like this is getting a fair amount of praise now.

Completely agree, the official forums are terrible.

The game is gaining momentum now. So many places, forums and people are praising this game like mad.

 

[LateX'Dog]

Don't forget to grab the skyshards too folks lots of free skillpoints to be had.

Definitely this. Also do the public dungeons as they sometimes have shards in them. You also get shards for the group dungeons and big quest chains.
