Opened a hatch on the beach... Went through a room full of npcs with 60k health thinking "Jesus that was hard" and then run up on a giant monster... Tried to run but the door closed... It was psychologically taxing... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thx dude. As a cp890 player who has rly wanted to but never tried a trial u convinced me i wouldn't be a burden on a normal trial. Craglorn here i come.

[@jwk13050]

I'm about CP 800 and haven't yet jumped in to them either. Want some gear out of the Craglorn trials so I'm heading there as well!

[@AskYourMom6969]

The timing of this video is perfect. I was just about to starting looking into running Trails over the next few days. Thanks so much Lucky! Keep up the great content brother!

[@toxicanrima2651]

Recently got back into this game and I must say, you're probably one of the best content creators that this game has. Your content always has good knowledge that you can tell is from an experienced player while still being digestible for new players, it's the perfect blend! Love the content man, glad the community has people like you :)

[@jediag02]

Incredibly helpful. I've been hesitant to jump into Trials but always wished I just felt ready, so this is huge for me. Your content is top tier, LG, thank you!

[@chrissenior2123]

Thank you for this video. I had actually asked you about trials in your Twitch chat and you were the first person to mention the whole Craglorn thing to me. Great video!

[@pgbollwerk]

Thanks for this. I just came back after a few years break. I've never done a trial, but I've raided in other MMOs. This was very helpful.

[@lordoftheawoken4044]

A great question and a sound answer. I'm cp 328 and part of my problem with Trials is that even if I knew the mechanics finding someone to hang with is always a hassle. I've actually been looking around to see when I should start doing Trials so thanks for the video.

[@Gestaltisierung]

Just came back to the game and this was extremely useful. Had no idea that I could actually craft gear now, as long as I had already collected it. Awesome stuff.

[@topwargear]

HELL YEAH THANKS! This video helped a lot I've been playing ESO now daily for about 6 months and JUST started to get into trials! Thanks!

[@BoooBear]

This video is super helpful, still fairly new to ESO but excited to get to the point and try these trials out! Awesome video

[@chalupamonsters23]

Timing is fantastic for this vid. Just got into the game a few weeks ago, and just hit CP160 and was curious about Trials. Just got my buddy into the game, and with him in, I'm sure the rest of our gaming buddies will follow. Been looking for a game for a while now that we can all do raid type content in again, and this sounds like it might just be it.

[@senioy]

are u interested in another new player for ur raid group ? :D (eventually)

[@colinevans3213]

Just did my first four trials the other day. Got invited to a new guild and promoted in that guilds ranks once. They were a lot easier than I thought.

[@ben_dixon]

I recently returned to this game and you're making me enjoy it a lot more so I wanted you to know, thank you!

[@luigiemario4191]

As always great content brother. Thank you for both the information and positive reinforcement. To many players are literally scared to try trials. Another thing to do easily is try and join a beginner trials guild,they will help teach you the mechanics. Thanks Lucky keep up the good work.

[@jujubear9909]

Thanks for the detailed guide! Honestly I'm still a bit intimidated to try and join trials because my DPS might not good enough but gonna need to jump in sooner or later - at least I have an idea what I need to do now!

Great guide I would ve loved to have when i started, well explained ans detailed.

I have only done a couple trails with my healer. Very different vibe from a dungeon. Good trial leader and DIscord make a huge difference. And, participants with familiarity by watch vids. Knowledge helps with mechanics. Great vid LG.

do them all on normal first. you're way over qualified, it wont be a problem. after you've seen the mechanics on them definitely try vet crag trials! then eventually the dlc ones

This videos is gold. I always thought that it would be required to play within guilds to get to trials. That tip for Belkarth is awsome!

[@1220skilletfan]

I've only done trials once or twice when I was only around 200cp a couple years ago, however I think PuG trials are the easiest way to do it. In guilds there's always particular days and it's hard to plan for 12 people to be online on a certain day. I like the idea of work with what you get

[@ryanelliott6706]

The last 5 trials I did on my main I was the only warden. Was still top 3 dps though most the time :-)

[@y2ksw1]

The Slow Dungeoneers is eventually a good guild to start with normal and veteran content at a normal pace, sometimes trials because trying hard to stay alive 😄

[@Philmoretotes]

Thanks for another great video man I’m cp 400 and still been scared to run trials for fear of ruining the run for others

Normal trials are easy I felt the same and started doing them at 200cp and found they were easy, easier than vet dungeons and some normal DLC ones.

[@BaritoneUkeBeast4Life]

This is an excellent video, I have been following your channel since the beginning of this year as I had just purchased the Blackwood Edition on Steam during the Dec holiday sale. It's funny I just was recommended this video from KZbin as I was very curious as to what trials are and what it's all about. I also just graduated my main character to level CP 160 last night! Now I understand everything perfectly except one thing. I am completely puzzled as to why I should need more than one 5-piece set along with a monster set. It almost sounded like you were saying I could wear 2 5-piece sets at the same time. Is that what you meant and if so how is that possible, or did you mean that I should have a 2nd set carried in my inventory if I wanted to switch them out. Like having one set for solo use and a second backup for group play? Please let me know why one needs more than a single 5-piece set along with a monster set. Thank you and keep making the best ESO videos on KZbin!

[@LuckyGhost]

Between your monster set, your body armor (5pieces) and jewls and weapon (another 5 pieces) you have room for two 5 piece sets :)

[@gganu1234]

I appreciate the video & the info, thanks...A few comments I will say as a NOOB, it's not as easy as the video makes it sound to get into a trial. I'm sitting in craglorn right now (as I have several times in the past) and nothing happens after I enter in chat that I'm looking for a normal trial. I just sit around a wait. I think the game does a poor job both preparing players and integrating them into "post game" content. The fact that this video is even necessary reveals the barriers to entry...frustrating.

[@Deinareia]

Yup, getting a group in craglorn is quite hard (unless it's brand new trial, Sunspire or Cloudrest). It takes a long time of just waiting around, hoping others will join.

[@Bisclas]

Good morning, in your video you said " crafting guide linked below", i cant seem to find it, there is build guides and trial guides, no crafting tho. A question, how does this crafting work? Back in my day we had to go to a specific workstation to craft the gear and we had to have the requirements to do so, the research thing. Now i only have to get 1 item and then i can craft it how many times i want? for example if i get a Medusa Ring, can i then craft another one? Thank you.

[@LuckyGhost]

if you find a dungeon, arena, or trial piece of gear then after that you can craft that specific piece as many times as you want yes! so you must find the ring to craft the ring, and you must find the staff to craft the staff

[@Bisclas]

@@LuckyGhost Oh that's fantastic, i already have one ring, so i can craft the other, no need to mindless zombie style farm the dungeon to get the second Ring. That is a fantastic crafting system. Thanks a lot. By the way if you can direct me to your " crafting guide " i would love to watch it.

I used to run trials all the time. Then it ended up requiring a guild where they only let you in if you do the maximum amount of dps stated online, gave them a massive amount of gold, then payed them stupid amounts each week to stay in the guild and if you don’t log in for 48 hours, you get kicked
