General News

To celebrate Elder Scrolls Online’s 10th anniversary, the developers are launching a brand new event, Pan-Tamriel Celebration Event, which is also the first event available after entering 2025.

The event has started at 10 am EST on January 23, 2025, and will last until February 4, 2025 at 10 am EST. During the event, it will be held in all areas of Tamriel! You don’t need to own any specific Chapters or DLC to participate in the event, but there are some returning collectibles that you can only get from the Impresario’s Assistant in certain DLC areas. Please come with us and enter this new event!

Event Boosts

In addition to the usual reward boxes, Pan-Tamriel Celebration Event offers players some great boosts, including a higher chance to get Antiquity Leads, Furnishings, and other valuables by digging in Treasure Maps.

Additionally, fishing drops are carefully curated. As long as you fish the right type of hole in the right area, you’re guaranteed to get a previously uncollected Trophy Fish to complete your unfinished achievement.

Finally, there’s a 100% XP boost that’s automatically applied throughout the event and can be stacked with other XP boosts.

Reward Boxes

Now, let’s get to those reward boxes! You can get reward boxes by killing all of the different boss monsters found throughout Tamriel.

On land, there’s a chance that event boxes will drop from defeating World Bosses, Delve Bosses, Public Dungeon Bosses, and completing Incursions. Note, however, that Dolmens’ drops are from bosses, so you’ll need to be in the top 12 in terms of damage to get them, so areas like Alik’r Desert are not recommended.

There’s also a cooldown between box drops from each character, so keep that in mind if you’re farming bosses back-to-back.

If you’re looking for the fastest way to farm, you’ll most likely want to turn to other characters and switch between them as they take on different public dungeon bosses.

For more challenging content, the final bosses in Trials, Dungeons, Arenas, and Tho’at Replicanum in the Infinite Archive all drop event boxes. But again, box drops only come from final bosses.

The first box you get each day will be a gold box, which you’ll get when you open it, giving you the new, very stylish Lion Guard Captain Outfit Style Pages. In addition to your gold box, you’ll also get 3 Event Tickets (39 total during the event).

You can only claim the gold box and tickets once per account per day, and the next drop of the day will be a purple box. Purple boxes mostly only contain crafting materials, but they also have a slight chance to drop ESO Gold and other items, in addition to new Style Pages. However, these purple boxes also have a chance to drop random Style Pages from the previous expansion celebration.

Event Merchants

Impresario’s Assistant

During the event, Impresario’s Assistant will also carry these Style Pages, as well as a few other returning collectibles, but his inventory will depend on the zone you’re in when you talk to him.

• Morrowind: Doctrine Ordinator Style Pages, Slag Town Diver skin, Memento, and fragments from Fabricant Pet.
• Summerset: Evergloam Champion Style and Snowhawk Mage Outfit Style Pages, Wooden Grave-Stake Memento fragments, and Gloam Gryphon Fledgeling Pet.
• Northern Elsweyr: Claw-Dance Acolyte Style and Ja’zennji Siir Outfit Style Pages.
• Western Skyrim: Saarthal Scholar Style and Sovngarde Stalwart Style.
• High Isle: Oaken Order Outfit Style.
• Necrom: Apocrypha Expedition Outfit Style.
• Blackwood: Y’ffre’s Fallen-Wood Style, and pieces for a pet.

In all locations, Impresario’s Assistant will also carry fragments of 2 Morphing Pets from years past, as well as 2 really awesome Morphs, Hourglass, which lets you change the time inside a house when placed, and Doomchar Plateau!

Indrik Vendor

Indrik Vendor will have 2 returning Indrik Morphs and fragments for 2 pets. But as if her assistants didn’t already have so much to spend money on. Impresario only carries the new Lion Guard Captain Outfit Style Pages, 3 fragments of this year’s new Morphing Pets, and the first Morphing fragments for the new Rune Extraction animation.

If you were a player during last year’s Anniversary Event, you may remember the replicas she carried. Thankfully, this year, their drop rates can be increased based on other achievements you may have unlocked, but the Impresario will also be selling them for 10 tickets each.

So if you’re sad about not unlocking these collectibles last year, don’t automatically jump to spending your tickets. Remember that these Style Pages are bound! If you get the corresponding replicas, their chances of dropping will increase again as you explore Tamriel. So if you’re a bit strapped for Event Tickets, give this a try. However, you can also try participating in the occasional giveaways in IGGM Discord, where you may be able to score some of the collectibles you’ve been looking for!

That’s everything you need to know about ESO Pan-Tamriel Celebration Event 2025! Whether you’re farming for those fishing achievements, treasure map clues, or bosses, hopefully everyone can enjoy such a lucrative event!

As a MMORPG with more than a decade of game history, there must be a reason why Elder Scrolls Online is still popular with players. Whether it is its stunning scenery or immersive soundtrack, it is an important factor that makes players linger here.

But after all, more than 10 years have passed since ESO was first released, and many players want to know whether it is still worth playing in 2025, and whether it can still catch up with the old players who have been here and really enjoy it. But to know the answer to this question, you still have to ask yourself what you are pursuing. Let's discuss it from all aspects.

Diverse Gameplay

First of all, ESO has achieved a good balance between single-player games in Elder Scrolls series of games and more traditional MMO elements, allowing you to play games continuously.

If you don’t like typical MMO gameplay, you will be happy to know that the world of Elder Scrolls Online is very large and single-player and casual games are very welcome, although there are some parts of the game that you need to bring others to play with you.

That being said, the main contributor to ESO’s success is the game’s engaging and helpful community, but it also encourages you to find your own rhythm and interact with others when you want to. However, ESO is an MMO, so there is no way to turn off viewing other players, but you can choose to ignore social activities.

Contradictions Caused By Level Scaling

Unlike many MMOs, ESO has level scaling, and equipment will always drop with your level. Combat is the same as enemies, and even your own damage numbers scale with your level. And since there are no level restrictions, you can go anywhere and play with friends from the beginning, regardless of level differences.

Combat in ESO does not have the feel of a single-player Elder Scrolls series game, but instead utilizes traditional MMORPG elements such as combat timers, ideal rotations for using skills, and global cooldowns before using other skills. It also utilizes the typical tank, healer, and damage dealer group dynamic.

To be honest, ESO does offer a lot of freedom, but because of the freedom the game offers it is easy to accidentally get equipment or skills that don’t match what you want for your character. Therefore, most players have very extreme attitudes towards the combat system, either loving it or hating it.

Another common complaint from players is that combat throughout the land area content feels too easy. While this provides a better initial game experience for new players, if you only complete the land content, your character may start to feel weak or unable to cope with the team content.

Character Customization

There are many options for customization in ESO, such as housing and designing character clothing. For many people, fashion is the real end goal!

Of course, you can customize your character at the beginning of the game, but after the character creation is over, you need to spend ESO Gold to change their physical characteristics, such as eye color, height or face shape. However, you can add items to your collection, such as hairstyles and skins that can be applied directly from Collection menu.

You can add items to your collection through Crown Store, or by completing achievements, participating in monthly or seasonal events, and simply logging in. These features all provide a foundation for players who like to customize their characters and show their own style and charm.

Huge Content

For pure lore lovers, ESO has a lot to offer. There are peaks and valleys in the storytelling, and some areas really stand out in that regard.

However, the game is massive, and if you like to play games in the order they were written or intended, ESO might be hard to navigate, as there are 10 years of content to explore, and there’s still a lot to do!

And while Elder Scrolls Online lets you join 5 player guilds at once, and there’s a player trading system, it doesn’t offer a traditional auction house, instead requiring guilds to bid for control of physical trader locations around the world. As a result, shopping in the game often requires traveling to different towns to find what you want.

While PC players currently have the option of using add-ons to improve the user experience in various aspects, console players don’t have add-on options. So you need to consider whether your device is suitable for this.

Pay-To-Win?

Finally, let’s look at the paid elements in ESO. First, its base game is a good deal, usually given away for free, but only includes hundreds of hours of base content. But you can also choose to get a collection version of expansions, which includes the base game, the current expansion, and all previous expansions.

If you hold off on using these expansions, you’ll essentially get a ton of content as a reward when you finally make up your mind to get them, a payment model that’s very new to the game. However, expansions and DLC are different, and these smaller DLCs aren’t included in the collection version, but they’re included in the optional subscription, which can cause confusion when players are deciding what to order.

And, as mentioned before, ESO also has an in-game store with a special currency available for use called Crowns. You can use them to unlock more content for permanent access after your subscription ends, or redeem them for cosmetics, horses, houses, furniture to decorate your house, and other timesaving extras. But the game doesn’t force a real-world economy on you, and it’s completely optional.

Some players aren’t happy with the amount of cosmetics that end up being sold for Crowns versus the amount of rewards you get, but the game is definitely not pay-to-win, it’s just pay-to-win for convenience and to look particularly fancy. While the timesaving crowns option does include things like upgrading skill trees, it’s important to point out that you do need to organically upgrade those skill trees once before the option is unlocked for your account.

Some players will notice that there are also Experience Scrolls for sale in the store, which may fall into the “pay to win” category, but ESO also offers free XP boosts, usually in items you can earn when you log in each day, as well as craftable drinks. So do your research before you use crowns, should you do it? If you don’t need them, don’t waste crowns!

Will ESO Continue To Be Updated?

As for how long the game will be updated, only the developers know the proper answer. However, with a new class added last year, the game is still making money, and this live service game is still rolling out updates. Therefore, I think this game will still be around for a few years to come.

Also, the game currently has no cross-platform play or cross-platform progression, and any in-game items are locked to the server you choose. Although the number of console players is considerable, the number of PC players is even greater. So think carefully when choosing a device to start the game.

Final Thoughts

In summary, ESO is very friendly to new players, the play style is very flexible, and there is still a lot of content to come. If you are interested, it is definitely worth continuing to try it in 2025, no matter which platform you choose.

However, ESO’s biggest problem right now is player retention. While there are tons of new players, the end-game community struggles to maintain player numbers, because of severe nerfs, skill gaps, large meta changes, or an inability to find and form a group of like-minded players.

If you do give the game a try, don’t burn yourself out by rushing to level up just to catch up with the old players. If you want to speed up your game progress, you can keep an eye on the giveaway channel in IGGM Discord, where there are often some sweepstakes. As long as you are lucky enough, you can get some coveted game resources for free. Regardless, focus on the adventure, lore, and world building in the game, and relax, because in the end it’s all about your journey and exploration!

As one of the most classic MMORPGs, Elder Scrolls Online has been launched for ten years - in fact, the game also held a grand anniversary celebration in 2024. Although ESO has difficulty maintaining its popularity as more and more excellent RPGs emerge, it has been working hard to ensure the quality of the game by launching various new initiatives.

At the end of 2024, ESO announced that it would gradually implement major in-game innovations in 2025, the most prominent of which was to replace the previous annual chapter updates with more frequent seasonal updates. To fully demonstrate this transformation, Elder Scrolls Online will launch a new DLC and Update 45 in the near future.

Based on this, we will fully introduce these two new changes to you.

New DLC Fallen Banners

According to the latest news, DLC is expected to be officially released on March 10, and will set up two new explorable four-player dungeons for you, giving you the opportunity to earn more ESO Gold through new battles with your friends.

After entering the first dungeon, Exiled Redoubt, you first need to let your character join Lucilla and infiltrate the stronghold of the once powerful Albus family. You will then discover a conspiracy that plunges the people of Cyrodiil into endless war. To do this, you need to fight through multiple battles to rescue these trapped people.

The second dungeon is called Lep Seclusa, where you and your teammates need to protect Moth Priests and their precious relics from the threat of the evil boss Orpheon the Tactician and his minions.

These two dungeons, which will come with DLC Fallen Banners, offer you their own unique storylines, characters, challenges, and unique boss battles, allowing you to earn exclusive rewards by completing them. And the good news is that after March 25, you can even play this DLC on Xbox and PlayStation consoles, but the prerequisite is that you have an ESO Plus membership.

Update 45 Overview

Update 45 is expected to be released together with Fallen Banners, and it will also support multi-platform experience. Unlike the new DLC, Update 45 is completely free.

Starter Zone Refresh

If you follow the developments of Elder Scrolls Online, you will know that it is updated frequently. For example, Update 44 was released on October 28, 2024 and November 13, 2024, on different platforms, respectively. Update 45 is expected to bring more changes and overall improvements to ESO.

Undoubtedly, the most exciting addition in Update 45 will be Starter Zone Refresh, so all starting areas in Elder Scrolls Online will be completely refreshed, making them more consistent with the details of other recent additions to ESO, such as West Weald or Telvanni Peninsula.

PVP Mode Innovation

Of all the playable ESO modes, PVP has always been in a terrible state because of its unstable server performance, but as the main combat mode, PVP needs to provide you with a more refined experience. Update 45 is expected to introduce the first PVP changes in Cyrodiil.

The update will add a new Cyrodiil Champions test event to the game, which will allow ESO development team to better monitor the server’s response to simplified capabilities by locking you into specific class builds including attributes, abilities, and items, and to better plan the future of Cyrodiil regional development and PVP by collecting data, in order to bring you a more complete and smooth PVP combat experience.

Changes In PVE Mode

For PVE, the game is expected to bring a new coat of paint to Betnikh, Stros M’kai, Bleakrock, Bal Foyen, and Khenarthi’s Roost areas in Update 45, so that the lighting, overall atmosphere, and new additions including various sundries and updated signage can be improved, thereby improving the experience of new players on the one hand, and making loyal fans love the basic PVE mode more on the other hand.

Quality Of Life Improvements

This update information has not yet been fully released, and it may be known to you one by one with the official launch of Update 45. However, it is certain that the starting speed of the mount will be increased, but the maximum speed will not be greatly improved, so advanced players may not feel much difference.

Other quality of life changes include several crafting skills in Champion point tree becoming passive skills, new item sets will be added, maps will also receive some improvements, and custom waypoint markers are in development.

Besides Update 45 and the new DLC, ESO developers also said that you will experience new add-ons on Xbox Series XS and PS5 later, and they are expected to be tried on PTS starting next week.

After understanding the above information, I believe you should have an idea of ​​how to prepare for these new contents, but if you have difficulty in resource reserves, such as lack of enough gold coins, you can try to enter IGGM Discord to seek help with relevant giveaway information. Thank you for reading.

In 2024, Elder Scrolls Online not only held a grand 10th anniversary celebration in the first half of the year, but also announced a number of new changes that will be implemented one by one in 2025 at the end of the year, in order to bring you a different ESO world.

In order to verify and implement these new contents, the game will first hold a reveal live broadcast this week to reveal the first part of the game updates in 2025, including basic game updates and an overview of the new dungeon DLC.

In addition, we will also provide you with additional information on the rewards you can get in the game by logging in on time and working hard in the near future, to help you get the available ESO Gold in time and encourage you to continue playing Elder Scrolls Online.

New Reveal Stream

According to the latest news, ESO team will broadcast live at 2:00 pm Eastern Time on Thursday, January 9 to reveal the first part of the 2025 game update content for you. You’ll be able to get the latest updates on the game from ESO developers, including Lead Encounter Designer Mike Finnigan and Lead Combat and PVP Designer Brian Wheeler, who will be attending the livestream.

As the first announcement of 2025, this livestream mainly covers base game updates and new dungeon DLC, which is small in scale, but major announcements will be released in April to give you a further understanding of major changes to Elder Scrolls Online in the future and how the past annual chapter mechanics will gradually exit the game.

In addition, you will learn about some completed new content and scattered information in the near future, as well as the remaining content of the year-long ESO 10th Anniversary Celebration that started in April last year as an extra surprise.

ESO Login Rewards

With 2025, the January login rewards for Elder Scrolls Online have also been released. These include not only daily login and claim rewards but also additional rewards to make up for server bugs in December.

The first two days of January are dominated by server compensation rewards, which brought you 1,000 Seals of Endeavor and 5 Grand Coast Experience Scrolls. These items are upgraded versions of the original login rewards, and you can get increased XP gains by claiming them.

After entering Day 4, you can enjoy the new Crown lessons that brought you to upgrade your mount experience until Day 6. First, the three lessons on Day 4 can increase your mount’s riding speed, and the three lessons on Days 5 and 6 can increase your mount’s riding stamina and riding ability, respectively. These mount buffs can improve your travel experience, allowing you to reach any destination in Tamriel faster and better equipped than before.

In addition, you will be given some winter furniture through login rewards this month, including Nord Candle, Antler, Nord Brazier, Nord Drinking Horn and Display, which can be claimed on Days 7, 14 and 21 of this month, respectively. Although the claim dates of these furniture items are relatively scattered and it takes a while to collect them, they can indeed bring you a cozy winter-themed home atmosphere.

Once you’ve claimed these rewards, the rest of the month will bring you more XP scrolls and the possibility of additional rewards, which will be available starting in January 2025 to help you get started on your ESO journey in the new year. If you bring a companion along on your adventure, they can help you complete the leveling process more efficient.

With Christmas and the new year, many games are busy launching new seasonal events to provide you with a brand new gaming experience and keep it fresh. Elder Scrolls Online is no exception.

In fact, some time ago, ESO not only launched the winter fun event New Life Festival on December 19, but also announced that different seasons will be announced in the game starting in 2025. The combination of these two will surely enable you to consume the last part of 2024 happily and fully in excitement and anticipation.

Based on this, we will introduce these two new contents to you.

How To Participate In New Life Festival?

As one of the winter events, ESO’s New Life Festival will last until January 7 next year. During this period, you can not only enjoy the festive atmosphere in the event but also get ESO Gold, automatic +100% XP gain and more rewards by completing event tasks.

It is worth noting that if you want to make full use of this event, please complete the introductory tasks that have not been completed immediately. Or if you already have Breda’s Bottomless Mead Mug stored away, grab them from your inventory.

Besides automatically increasing your XP by 100%, New Life Festival also provides you with 10 daily quests to spread holiday cheer across Tamriel. Just complete one daily quest and you’ll receive a New Life Festival box.

Specific Rewards Offered By New Life Festival

When you receive the festival box, you’ll find items including various alchemical crafting materials, New Life Festival toys, Wolfsbane incense, a selection of recipes, New Life Festival furniture, charity works, and Skin-changer theme pages.

Among the new items is the runebox that can open Surprising Snowglobe memento and a bolt of Winter Storm Cloth. You can get it once a day during the event. And if you already get a runebox that day, you have the chance to get a replacement item.

In fact, your chances of getting a runebox increase as you have more Winter Storm bolts and New Life Winter Storm Robes - New Life Winter Storm Robe can be crafted with 15 cloth rolls.

In addition, with the return of Impresario, you can also get many new and returning items, including all the components of this year’s transformation collection. And if you don’t have enough parts to make the required items, you can exchange them for tickets.

It is worth noting that this event announcement details the items you can collect during the event. If you missed the event goods in previous years, you will also have a chance to get them again at New Life Festival. For this reason, we recommend that you can maximize all your opportunities by winning some tickets by participating in the celebration event.

New Year, New Season

It is reported that Elder Scrolls Online will officially switch the entire game mechanism to a seasonal mode in 2025, and will provide you with more improvements and new content through more frequent updates. In addition, the game team also stated that it will effectively improve PVP mode, the experience of new and returning players, and will introduce new plots to existing areas.

How Will The New Season Be Presented?

According to the information currently revealed by the game developers, ESO is expected to launch new seasons of three to six months in 2025, instead of annual chapter updates as before. And the new season will bring you new themed story content, activities, store items, dungeons, etc.

However, this also means that 2025 is a transitional period for Elder Scrolls Online, because the game team will still release new content based on existing areas, as well as larger projects that are already in preparation - in fact, they have already completed these contents and completely switched to seasonal development.

And the aspects of the new season plot in the latest announcement may make you feel a little “return to the roots”. Because the plot begins to refocus on classic game groups such as Thieves Guild, Mages Guild, Dark Brotherhood, and Fighters Guild.

In addition, the plot will not only launch new stories in familiar areas but also bring back familiar characters, or expand some continued stories. You will even can experience new areas, although it may take multiple updates.

What is more worth looking forward to is that ESO may also improve your combat feel while increasing the difficulty of world battles by updating animations and skill effects.

This year, Elder Scrolls Online not only launched a celebration from April to celebrate its 10th anniversary, but also decided to launch the above new game content to make a good start for the next decade, which is enough to show the sincerity of the development team.

In order to cooperate with these changes in ESO, IGGM Discord will also provide you with some game giveaway information in the giveaway channel recently, so that you have the opportunity to get free game props and enhance the game experience! So hurry up and enter!

Since its official launch, Elder Scrolls Online may not always be the hottest MMORPG, but it has its own advantages, which have enabled it to keep moving forward steadily and still occupy a place in the game market after ten years.

In April 2024, ESO held a 10th anniversary event in Amsterdam. If you pay attention to this game, you will find that it has been changing and adjusting to keep up with the times since its launch in 2014. Since 2017, Elder Scrolls Online has released amazing content and systems every year.

As 2024 is coming to an end, the game developers said that starting from 2025, you will not only continue to see the launch of new ideas and releases but also can witness the upgrade efforts made by ESO to keep it relevant, outstanding and attractive.

Based on this, we will introduce you to the major changes that Elder Scrolls Online will make in 2025 from several main aspects.

Introducing Seasons

From Morrowind in 2017 to Gold Road six months ago, zone design and quest content have been at the heart of virtually every Elder Scrolls game to date, including ESO.

But in 2025, while a lot of story content will still be produced, Elder Scrolls Online will move more towards a seasonal content model, rather than releasing large-scale content updates once a year like episodes.

It is expected that you can experience named seasons for three to six months in the game next year, which will include various new themed story content, new activities, new dungeon quests, etc. It is worth noting that they will bring you various new combat opportunities to increase your ways to earn ESO Gold.

New Changes And Tests

As you know, any game needs to add new and different types of content constantly and address long-standing player feedback issues. Based on this, Elder Scrolls Online developers said they have begun working on some tests that will be launched in 2025.

So you may see some of this content on live servers in 2025 and beyond. It’s worth noting, though, that some of this will be tests, and some will be improvements based on your feedback and that of other players:

• Increase the difficulty of standard world battles.
• Improve your combat experience by improving animations, FX, and potentially audio work.
• Try more areas, such as Craglorn. And create specifically for high-end group and soft group content, with relevant equipment chases.
• Add and improve tools to make guild recruitment, interaction, and management easier and more logical.

In addition, the game will also address the performance issues of Cyrodiil. By trying Cyrodiil campaign, all classes will have PVP-specific skills, and these skills will replace standard player skills, in order to better support you in each campaign. Of course, if you have any good related opinions, you can also give feedback to the game official through various channels.

Pay More Attention To New And Returning Users

Previously, some players have reported that the current ESO game scale is too large and lacks enough detailed guidance, so that the new user experience is not good. In addition, there are also some players who do not log in to the game frequently for various reasons, so they may also feel overwhelmed when returning to the game.

With that in mind, we anticipate that in 2025 Elder Scrolls Online will make some improvements to give these players the basic guidance they need to enjoy the game before opening up all the possibilities. For example, making sure the game’s map and other quest UI areas reveal you where you left off and where you’ll find the content you’re after.

Here are some things game plans to improve the experience for both new and returning players - some of which will be available in 2025, and some of which may be more later:

• A new PC-only patch to improve visuals and performance.
• Regularly tweaking the original Wailing Prison tutorial area for all new players to improve the experience.
• Visual improvements to base game areas with updated textures and art, starting with the starter islands (likely to start rolling out in March 2025)
• Beautify the game’s PC UI.
• Improvements to other map and UI systems to make returning to the game a smoother process.

More Exciting Storylines

Although the content release model will change, Elder Scrolls Online will continue to add new quest content. Since the focus of the game is no longer on adding huge new continents, it is expected that the game will use existing areas and regions to tell new stories, such as:

• Based on continuing to expand the stories in existing areas and storylines, let those familiar characters return.
• Make the new story content more focused on iconic ESO organizations, such as Dark Brotherhood, Thieves Guild, Fighters Guild, and Mages Guild.
• Divide a large area into multiple for updating.

The development team is also working hard to find a new rhythm recently so that new content and systems can be combined with addressing feedback, solving problems, and adding new tasks and activities to existing areas and stories. Ensure that these new stories can be better integrated into your game experience based on updating the plot.

It is also worth mentioning that the next major announcement event of Elder Scrolls Online is expected to be held in April 2025, which will include a lot of content and the first season will be launched at the same time. But for this, you have to wait. Fortunately, you still have a chance to get more relevant information from the official at some point in the early new year.

After seeing this preview of the changes, you will definitely feel more confident and interested in the future of ESO. Then you may as well enter IGGM Discord and wait for the giveaway information to provide you with the opportunity to obtain game items, helping you to experience the game better in the future!

In the background story of Elder Scrolls Online, Tel Var Stones are Esoteric fragments of White-Gold Tower found in the corrupted Imperial City. It is used as a currency, mainly used to exchange gear, crafting materials and other items in Imperial City.

So, how can you get Tel Var Stones in ESO, and how can you use them? This article may provide you with some reference.

How To Get Tel Var Stones?

Like Elder Scrolls Online Gold, Tel Var Stones can be deposited into your bank for you to use later. Tel Var Stones mainly come from Imperial City, and you can also get it by claiming daily rewards or killing other players. Here are the detailed ways to get Tel Var Stones.

Daily Login Rewards

You can log in to ESO every day to claim a certain number of Tel Var Stones. Of course, if you want to use Tel Var Stones to exchange for some good Elder Scrolls Online Items, it is obviously not enough to rely on daily login rewards. You also need to participate in battles.

Defeat Imperial City Bosses

In Imperial City, Tel Var Stones are mainly dropped from enemy monsters, and the drop amount is often a multiple of four. Therefore, if you want to farm Tel Var Stones in Imperial City, it is recommended that you form a team of 4 or less, and the team members will share Tel Var Stones equally.

Before going to Imperial City to start the battle, remember to flip Imperial City flags, which will increase your Tel Var Stones income.

Strong enemies will drop more Stones. Tel Var Stones are mainly obtained by killing Patrolling Horror Bosses in the city. Each district of Imperial City has a boss, and they respawn every 15 minutes.

If you fight alone, you can get 5,000 to 8,000 Tel Var Stones per boss you defeat, and you can farm them by running around and killing them repeatedly. Besides killing bosses, you can also get a small amount of Tel Var Stones by killing ordinary NPCs.

After completing the quest in Imperial City, you will receive Light Tel Var Satchel, Medium Tel Var Sack, or Hefty Tel Var Crate as a reward.

Killing NPCs In Imperial City Sewers

You can also get Tel Var Stones by finding and defeating NPCs you can see in Imperial City sewers. Keep an eye out for Cunning Scamps, which can get a lot of Tel Var Stones.

Farming Tel Var Stones this way is slower than killing bosses directly, and ordinary NPCs don’t drop as many Tel Var Stones as bosses, but it is relatively safer.

Killing Other Players In Imperial City

This method is more of a test of your PVP skills. In Imperial City, you can get Tel Var Stones by killing other ESO players. Every time you defeat a player, half of his Tel Var Stones will be divided between you and all your teammates who participated in the kill.

Of course, this rule also applies to you. If you die, you will lose half of your Tel Var Stones. You will not lose a Stone if you die in the two Group Dungeons in the city or outside Imperial City. So when you are in Imperial City, please be vigilant!

Make Good Use Of Tel Var Stones Multiplier

Carrying a lot of Tel Var Stones in Imperial City can gain a multiplier. The higher Tel Var Stones multiplier, the more Tel Var Stones you will get when you kill monsters. However, as mentioned above, once you die, you will lose half of your Tel Var Stones.

The specific relationship between the number of stones you carry and the multiplier is as follows:

• Carry 100 Stones: x2
• Carry 1,000 Stones: x3
• Carry 10,000 Stones: x4

The more Tel Var Stones you carry, the greater the benefits, but the risk also increases. You can decide the number of stones you carry based on your ability, which will help you get more Tel Var Stones faster.

If you've been paying attention, you'll have noticed that this year marks the 10th anniversary of the release of Elder Scrolls Online, so if you haven’t played the game yet, or if you’re a veteran player who hasn’t logged in for a long time, now is the perfect time to explore the continent of Tamriel!

But before you jump into the game, you need to know some key information. For example, in ESO, playing as a DPS class will greatly increase your efficiency in obtaining Elder Scrolls Online Gold in many side quests and PVE dungeons.

Since DPS is the most accessible role in ESO, unlike tanks or healers, which have certain restrictions, almost all 7 classes in the game are capable of DPS. But it should be noted that the 7 classes have different damage output values ​​when playing as DPS. This is very important when you play PVP mode or enter certain group dungeons.

Especially with the release of the seventh Arcanist class, Elder Scrolls Online has deviated from the four standard RPG archetypes originally provided. So while choosing the most attractive class is enough to survive in World War, if you want to play a DPS role in Trials or PVP, you need to choose the most suitable class to play.

Based on this, we ranked the 7 classes in ESO from low to high to provide reference for you who want to play DPS.

7. Necromancer

Although this is a class introduced to the game in Elsweyr expansion because of the ardent request of fans, you will find that its performance in Trials and PVP scenes is mediocre and completely below the expectations of players.

The core combat mechanic of Necromancer is based on the corpses of enemies. Although these corpses are created through the skills Blighted Blastbones or Bone Armor, Necromancer is still at a disadvantage in boss battles with single enemies.

Of course, you can also explore more ways to make Necromancer viable in DPS, but since other classes have better damage output potential, why should we stick to Necromancer?

6. Nightblade

In ESO, Nightblade is a fairly versatile class that focuses on both magic and stamina, and the class’s debuffing abilities mean that you’ll be able to defeat enemies higher than your level if you choose to play this class.

However, Nightblade lacks specific strengths in Trials and group dungeons, and often lags behind other classes that specialize in ranged, AOE, or sustained damage effects. Although it brings a lot of skills that can be used in future games, for ESO itself, Nightblade lacks utility and variety, making it difficult to be a perfect DPS.

5. Warden

Warden class is arguably one of the most important ESO expansion classes to date. It plays an interesting jack-of-all-trades role in the game, allowing it to fill a gap in your team as either a DPS, tank, or healer.

From a skill perspective, Warden’s summons and Frost output allow them to be highly effective fighters with burst and sustained damage in combat, while the health stealing effects of skills such as Lotus Blossom make Wardens highly useful in any role.

However, because of previous changes to Warden damage output in ESO, especially Winter’s Embrace, the damage that the class can output has been limited, reducing its effectiveness. This has undoubtedly made Warden, originally a mainstay of DPS, challenged by other more reliable classes.

4. Templar

Templars in Elder Scrolls Online have a reliable set of simple high-damage skills. Endurance Templar, in particular, has always been known for having incredibly high damage output and the ability to fight some of the most powerful trial bosses in the game.

However, I don’t know if you have noticed that the simplicity of One-Bar Templars limits their overall usefulness in the setting. While this lack of versatility does not hurt their DPS capabilities too much, it allows other classes to get ahead of them.

3. Dragon Knight

Dragon Knight has long been a staunch melee DPS mainstay in ESO, which is why it ranks among the top three. Despite multiple updates and patches, Dragon Knight is still a very reliable DPS class.

Dragon Knight’s reliable weapon skill synergy and durability allow you to play DPS in battle with it with confidence. In addition, you can also rely on Earthen Heart line to ensure that your defense is not too low, while supporting high attack power with staunch defense and buffs. If you like the melee DPS style, Dragon Knight will be a reliable choice for you.

2. Sorcerer

As the original Elder Scrolls Online DPS powerhouse, Sorcerer mainly eliminates enemies through long-term summons and powerful lightning attacks. Among them, skills such as Hurricane can provide powerful AOE attacks and damage resistance buffs for the endurance-based Sorcerer.

In fact, Sorcerer is also a class whose passive skills in each skill line you can’t ignore. Passive skills such as Energized and Amplitude can turn you into a powerful and hard-to-beat fighter, and the key is the debuff effect and the attack output when targeting a single enemy.

1. Arcanist

As a relatively new class, Arcanist can provide you with incredible ease of use and damage capabilities in all aspects of ESO. Even an un-optimized Arcanist can rival some of the high-level PVE battles, thanks to its powerful core skills that can bring you effects such as debuffs, support, and maximize ranged damage output.

In addition, Arcanist’s Fatecarver ability completely changes the way damage is dealt in ESO, and it is even just one of the many unique tools that Arcanist uses to become a powerful DPS in the game. Therefore, it fully deserves to be ranked first.

The above 7 classes actually have their own strengths and are suitable for different combat scenarios. We only rank them according to their adaptability to DPS, which does not represent their full strength. You can also choose to accord to your own needs.

If you want to learn more about these classes, you can enter IGGM Discord to discuss with other players. In addition, the giveaway channels here will also regularly distribute game prizes, so remember to pay attention!

As a successful MMORPG, Elder Scrolls Online has maintained good popularity since its launch in 2014. To this day, an average of 30,000 players are still conducting various interesting explorations and battles on Tamriel continent every day.

If you are one of these players, then you must know that Tamriel is the main background continent in ESO. It is extremely vast, containing various game areas with different landforms and styles, and it is also the story foundation for the main storyline of the game.

But besides these contents, there are actually many rich side stories in ESO for you to complete. They not only have high-quality stories independent of the main storyline but also provide you with various props, including Elder Scrolls Online Gold as quest rewards.

Based on this, we will select 7 side quests worth completing for you among all the side quests in the current game.

1.Unearthed Quest

This quest is given to you by Foreman Gandis of Shor’s Stone Mine, who can be found in Skyrim, the cold but bustling northern region of Tamriel. He will then ask you to first free his men from Reachmen hiding in the ancient companion’s tomb.

After successfully passing the persuasion check, you can get a key to a secret door to make it faster through the mines and reach the tomb. However, the last chamber is protected by a puzzle, and this puzzle requires you to visit an antechamber to find Medallion of Fireheart, and then visit another antechamber to find Amulet of Darkhammer. Completing this will give you Gold, around 2800 XP, and Companion’s Chausses.

2. Summer Site

In the jungles of Bosmer homeland of Valenwood, you can talk to Tharuin the Melancholy near Dra’bul Wayshrine and learn that Falinesti Summer Site has been delayed in returning to the area. Tharuin explains that there have been recent lightning strikes and Daedra sightings nearby.

You then need to investigate these events. During the process, you will see a purple light emanating from a stone archway. When you approach, you will encounter a projection of a woman who seems to be trying to save the city.

She then instructs you to meet her in a small cave across a wooden bridge, which triggers a battle with Daedra. This means that the portal to Oblivion is closed and you need to start a boss fight with Tulu the Daedroth.

3. Ghostwriter Of Giovesse

Ghostwriter of Giovesse quest has a classic RPG style and starts with Author’s Assistant Wanted! flyer. In this quest, you need to provide assistance to the author Yisara, who usually appears in Egg and Hammer Inn in Gideon.

At first, it is just a simple escort mission, the purpose of which is to inspire Yisara to write the next novel. But as you progress through the quest, you’ll find that the quest plot is intertwined with Yisara’s novel ideas, leading you and Yisara to search for historical clues in the haunted halls of Castle Giovesse and solve the ultimate mystery to complete the quest.

4. Tempest Unleashed

To complete this quest, you first need to complete the prerequisite, which is to bring Maormer Ambassador Ulondil to justice. After that, you need to return to the port city of Mistral, where Sea Vipers have launched an attack on the docks and urgently need you to provide as much support as possible to the defenders.

During the counterattack, you need to clear the combatants on the docks and, under the guidance of the survivors, pass through the tavern and head to the mines. While passing through the wind tunnel in the mines, you will see a projection showing that Sea Vipers have captured the storm element and intend to use it to destroy Mistral.

5. Half-Formed Understandings

If you have been a loyal player of ESO, then you must be familiar with King of Worms Mannimarco. He first appears in Mages Guild questline in Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, where he leads Necromancers. In ESO, he appears in the opening cinematic and will sacrifice your character to Molag Bal.

If you enjoy exploring the deep lore of Elder Scrolls Online, this quest is for you. As you complete the quest, you’ll get to see where it all began, tracing the events that led to Mannimarco’s expulsion from the mysterious Psijic Order and how he ended up in horrific experiments and the darkest depths of necromancy. Upon completion, you’ll also receive Staff of Forbidden Knowledge besides ESO Gold and XP.

6. Vanus Unleashed Daedra

One of the most well-known characters in Tamriel’s magicka lore and Mages Guild, Vanus Galerion is actually one of the most powerful magicians in all of Nirn, and it was he who founded Mages Guild. In this quest, you’ll need to assist him in destroying Great Shackle within Black Forge.

At the start of the quest, you’ll find a recording of Vanus outlining his plans, enabling you to join him. After entering this quest, you’ll need to restore Galerion’s stolen health, magicka, and stamina to restore his full power.

Once you’ve done that, you’ll need to defeat the dremora Kothutuilk and return the stolen energy to Galerion, who will then help you dismantle Great Shackle, completing the quest.

7. Harvest Heart

After Vanus Galerion has successfully taken over Chasm region, he’ll assign you another quest to take on vampires. To do this, you’ll enter Molag Bal’s realm and face off against his infamous Harvest Hearts. Vanus believes that the best way to deal with vampires is to defeat them and mark their sanctuaries with your own blood.

Completing each of these quests will reward you with Elder Scrolls Online Gold and a lot of XP, as well as some specific game items, which is a great deal.
