Awesome video, returning player. Have a question does your guides translate to the console? Thank you for your guides.

[@LuckyGhost]

@@MegaSebasti yea, console is the same exact game :)

@@LuckyGhost thank you for the quick response.

[@mrmxyzptlk322]

I’m seeing a lot of complaints about the video not being informative enough, like people not knowing how to get to certain places etc. This video is a levelling guide, not a walkthrough. It does it’s job perfectly and is very clear

[@jmg4208]

What's misleading is not how more informative this video could be. Is how much direction the game forget to give. 👍best lvling guide!

[@traycollum1434]

I'm brand new and I get it I'm here for what to do I'm gonna be watching this video a bunch over the next few weeks and then going to find visa on how to do what he is saying your already on KZbin this has all the general info in one place and it's sectioned in to levels I'm on 1-9 ATM lmao but great info teaching me tons of stuff

[@crazyboysince1998]

Im new to the game and it has been nothing but a frustrating mess. I'll keep trying hopefully someday it will be good

[@patricks9401]

So there is 2 guides needed for eso, 1 for pro players leveling alts and one for new players, this guide starts great for pro players looking to be most efficent, but then starts telling me for 10 mins how to do basic mechanics I already know, and judging by the new players complaining its not great for them either as it does not go into basic things like traveling and whatever else they are complaining about.

[@D_Huckins]

Perfect timing. I just started playing ESO again after over a year! Thank you so much for your well-detailed guides!

[@MattBlahhh]

Every minute of this video was so valuable lol. I can kill faster, move faster, I have more tools at my disposal, I loot more... so glad I took the time to watch the whole thing.

[@kouskous.969]

Thanks for the help!! got ESO yesterday and got lost, so all your tutorials are great, now I know everything I need to know and learning the minor things along the way

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad to help!

[@WhitecapPXQ]

I just started ESO and was following the last 1-50 guide so this was PERFECT TIMING👑

[@TOPIK_KB]

been using your solo templar build and it really help a lot..now im at lvl450+ manage to solo some of group dungeon 1 and some world boss...its been great so far 👍

[@phoenixrose1995]

Quick note!: while yes equipping 3 pieces of gear does unlock the skill line. same with killing an enemy with a weapon unlocks the skill line. you can actually unlock said skill lines if you read books. anytime you pass by a bookshelf, interact with it and then close the book. if you are lucky you might gain some XP in a skill you haven't unlocked yet, and in doing so you will unlock said skill line :)

[@riennemarrive5378]

it takes me back to when i first played eso in 2016 and didnt know anything about this game... learning all of the stuff on my own was so fun, especially the crafting, its was very different from anything i had in other games and kinda confusing but when you understand it once it's not so terrifying anymore. honestly eso is still my favorite mmorpg despite all the flaws it has bc it's so versatile, with big and beautiful open world, with outstanding voice actors and stories and even tolerable (for a mmo) TES lore

[@LadyAnnt]

I love this game too, but yes, crafting is very different. My son told me how to do it.

[@patrickthompson9719]

I went to level 18 before doing any of this. Now I'm retracing and catching up by following all of your great advise and tutorial. Thanks.

[@Solar06]

what level are you

[@gohansoloz2814]

Same I'm like level 16 bout to go back and do thee

[@Rewolloc]

honestly i downloaded ESO and felt overwhelmed with all the systems as a new player but this video helped me to put my self in a straight line and i felt better after thank you!

[@TheRoibm]

You can pick up the Mages and Fighters Guild in Solitude too. There right next to the Digging Stuff. And if I remember correctly the NPC's for this also stand outside so you don't need to wait for 4 loading screens.

[@manuelgranados9176]

This came out at the perfect time as I just got into ESO. Thank you!

[@dawson3065]

One thing I think you might've missed out is how to acquire the undaunted guild skill line, there are npcs in the taverns of each faction's starting capital that you unlock it by talking to them

[@wellsusmc2002]

This is a fantastic guide. I have been playing for several years with no guidance, and this gave me a lot of information I didn't know!!!

[@cortlan]

Oh man thanks for the new video! I just started following the old one but saw that everything changed in the new update. I appreciate it!

[@googly311]

Getting back into ESO on Series X, your videos have been very helpful 👍

Thank you soo much for this! I was thinking about starting a new Skyrim save but went to this instead.. Admittedly i looked up nothing and have been playing this solo as if its Skyrim by just doing story quests 😅 its been fun but youve just taught me so much and now im excited to get more into it! ❤ thanks again for this guide and all of your others

Hey man thank you I was in your stream the other day I’m new to eso

[@polarbear7167]

You can get the fighters guild and mages guild skill line in solitude,they’re both on the same street as Antiquities.

[@jakehunter1172]

I know the ESO community, can always count on you o7

[@faces_of_horror]

As soon as I start a new character the 1st thing I do is join the undaunted, mages guild and the fighters guild. Then increase bag space and do the quests for each crafting line. Obviously also do things like level mount speed.

[@fiha4186]

Why is it important to start crafting quest early? Just got into this game and want to craft later on, but didnt do any quest yet

[@faces_of_horror]

@@fiha4186 Because once you have done the quests you can do the daily writs and get items and gold. Also it’s better to start researching different weapons and armors because each time you research a piece it takes longer for the next one. In the end you’ll be waiting a full month to research one trait.

[@fiha4186]

@@faces_of_horror thanks so much m8! I just tried to analyze sth but it seems I can't, since it says 0/1 analyses and just nothing happens when I click, guess I got to put some points in the skillines. Could u help me out tho? I'm running lvl5 gear on lvl 35 and dunno where to farm or what to get, since I wanna have 5 peace set. Is it worth to do du ngeon right now?

[@faces_of_horror]

@@fiha4186 You dont need points in the skill lines like blacksmithing to research. You can just do it. But once youve leveled it up you can use better materials and research 3 traits at a time to speed it up. You can do normal dungeons but i wouldnt do vet dungeons until youre CP160. Thats the max level of clothes and weapons. Which platform and server are you on? Im on PCNA and Playstation EU. If youre on either I could send you some training gear to speed up your leveling. If youre not sure on the crafting side there is lots of guides on here.

Loved your video and the scying tool on the quickbar was an awesome tip however... I was already level 10 by only getting three companions and the PsionXXX guild status. The companions require delves and that final quest in the guild line running around and finding those 9 breaches made me fight quite a bit. I have not even started the hoofed figure stuff yet, LOL.

I played guild wars 1 for years it was the first mmo i ever played guild wars 2 was the 2nd i cant believe its still going thats crazy i started not long after release but the original was the best in my opinion i wish they had just kept adding to it cause it was so hard for me to get in to guild wars 2 after got like 20 characters to max lvl of 20 in gw 1 i still hop on guildwars 1 every once in a blue moon just to admire my characters and to help people it blows my mind every time i login that it is still going it isnt that active anymore there is only people in the Major itys now but back in the day there was people everywhere getting help on missions was so easy before guild wars 2 and also you used to get rewards in guildwars 2 from progress and achievements in guild wars 1 i was terrible at the game until this guy gave me the max amount of gold you could have and then gave me a 2nd account with a ton of characters with awesome builds i used them to help me level all my characters and get the armor and weapons i wanted i ran a guild and alliance for several years and at one point we was the most dominant guild in the game we controles nearly every city in the factions expansion i started the guild when i was 13 build it and the alliance noone had a clue i was just a teen i miss those days

[@visionofgrey]

I just came back after years and your videos are great. At the same time I still feel very overwhelmed. I already picked a starting place in the portal room so hard to navigate this huge map for the companions. Everywhere I go there are so many quests I can’t even tell which is the main one and which to do, stumbling in more and more quests. Any advice would help I want to keep playing. It seems like a solo game now a days.

[@LuckyGhost]

ignore all the quests until you've got the stuff in this video done. then pick a zone and do them all :D

[@visionofgrey]

@@LuckyGhost thank you for the advice.

[@craigslitzer4857]

I just started a new character, don't think I started with 3 skill points. Add-ons aren't available on console 😢 😞 😕

[@kimankersen1750]

Oh ..I would WISH, that you would make a slooow starter guide, step by step- REALLY spell it all out, for like the first 10 lvl. Maybe do it all as you tell it, so I can see and hear at the same time. Pls ..😮😊

[@danopris8941]

I'll start by thanking you for your guides and especially for the one bar builds that I feel comfortable with. Being a solo player all the time (I have difficulties with the English language), I would really appreciate it if you could suggest what type of companion to use in the case of one bar constructions. I generally use the tank construction (Isobel) and healing Ember or Dps for the Warden, Nightblade and Necromancer Magic constructions in the magic constructions (Templar) as a companion.

[@TerrennonPriv]

This guide may be minmaxed but doing all the little things just to unlock stuff early that you don't care yet can kill first impression enjoyment. For the first 10lv or until end of first zone i would just enjoy the game and later if i get hooked up i would grab all those things. The only discusible part is maphack, if you discover things by yourself, by design it's fun but if you later will need to backtrack just to grab a thing it doesn't feel good, so it's up to you.

[@andrewmorales7342]

[@Seamndel]

What about acquiring the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood skill lines, as well as Vampirism/Lycanthropy?

[@fictitiousnightmares]

12:04 HOLY CRAP! Why did no one in any of the tips and tricks videos I've watched (a lot) ever tell me I could right click on the map to zoom out to the larger map? And there is nothing in game telling me that is possible when looking at the map either. You know, maybe something on the screen at the bottom like "right click = encompassing map" or something similar. WTF Thank you for showing this to me. Has been driving me mad for a while. 23:20 So where did you talk about getting Undaunted? You talk about how important the skills are later in the dungeon section, but you have yet to tell us how to join the guild in the first place. I have rewatched the lvl 1-9 section multiple times looking for it. At the start you 'say' you are going to tell us, then you only do fighter and mage guilds.

[@jacquesash6135]

Hi there, just bought the game and was following your guide, I'm a bit confused as to whether I can go get those companions even if I don't have dlcs? I bought standard

[@swiftdasher]

I've tried ESO on two separate occasions and I just couldn't have fun with it. The combat felt simultaneously clunky and extremely easy, the progression felt very muted like new skills didn't matter because I'd just end up doing the same thing anyway, and so on. Would following a guide like this help? I think perhaps a more progression driven focus would aid in my enjoyment but I also don't want to miss out on the storylines the game is lauded for. I really don't know how to properly enjoy this game and I'd really like to.

Start in the new zone? Im not sure what to do. Thank you.

[@colbyrodgers1040]

Hey, question for anyone who plays this game really: I can only use one of my arms but play WoW/FFXIV pretty well, I use an mmo mouse to make up for several deficiencies I have. So myquestion is are the controls something that I should be able to handle or are wasd all 100% required to play leaving few keybinds for abilities? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but I couldn’t really find an answer elsewhere. I can make do with W being required but beyond that it gets into a grey area for me.
