I'm torn... I'm a night blade... But I just picked up a 2 handed staff that shoots fire and makes me feel like a bad ass, feel like I'm betraying my class though

I'd forgotten how shit the psn download speeds are. Sitting on a 70mbit connection and the current speed is around 700kb/s. I was hoping to play today, but no dice :(

Try pausing and then starting download. It helped me a lot.

Well, still haven't got my Imperial Edition yet. Best not be tomorrow, Game, or there's going to be trouble.

I've seen staff nightblade builds that work. I'm not sure if they're viable for serious pvp or endgame pve, but they work just fine for leveling. Check out the Siphoning skill line for a magicka based lifesteal and a ranged snare. The classes are more diverse than they seem at first, play around and have fun.

Try setting up Privoxy on your PC and set the PS4 to proxy the traffic through it, I did this on my PS3 years ago an my speeds went like 10X or faster ever since. Ended up doing the same with PS4 and same speed increase, here are instructions for the PS3 that work for PS4 just difference in menus on PS4 side

Ugh... That just makes me want to run a more viable class now

This game has translated quite well over to console, totally enjoying it.

Is there a shortcut to get to the inventory screen? I find it quite awkward to try and change out gear

Holy.. fucking.. shit. There is no text chat. How is this possible. MMO without a proper chat. I don't get it. I should've researched before I bought the game but I had no clue they might leave it out. Now I don't know if I'm mad or sad. Maybe both.
 
Any Xbox players having trouble logging in? Just curious as I might exchange for that version if it's easier to get in the game since the two versions appear to be otherwise equal.

No issues for me or my wife since early this morning on Xbox One.

Just a few tips on Armor for those new to the game:

There are three types of armor in Elder Scrolls Online, which correspond to certain effects. Light Armor augments magic, Medium Armor raises stamina, and Heavy Armor affects health and defense.

Light Armor has these skills:
◾ Annulment – absorbs damage from spells. This is Light Armor’s active ability.
◾ Evocation – Reduces Magicka cost.
◾ Recovery – Increases Magicka regeneration.
◾ Spell Warding – Increases spell resistance.
◾ Concentration – Spells are unaffected by enemy spell resistance.
◾ Prodigy – Increases critical damage.

Medium Armor has these skills:
◾ Evasion – Increases chances to avoid melee attacks.
◾ Improved Sneak –Reduces range at which you can be detected.
◾ Wind Walker – Increases stamina regeneration.
◾ Athletics – Increases sprint speed.
◾ Dexterity – Increases chances of a critical strike.
◾ Agility – Increases attack speed.

Heavy Armor has these skills:
◾ Immovable – Reduces damage and provides immunity to knockback.
◾ Juggernaut – Increases melee attack power.
◾ Rapid Mending – Increases healing.
◾ Resolve – Reduces damage, increases armor and spell resistance.
◾ Constitution – Increases health regeneration.
◾ Bracing – Reduces cost of blocking.

Douchebag. Yes, me.
So the voice chat....yeah that isn't gonna work for me.

I immediately turned it off.

Literally, the first thing I heard after loading the game for the first time were two 12 year olds screaming f*g and n*gger at each other because they were mad that one of them was standing in the wrong place.

Instead of reading it in a text chat you can hear their lovely voices.
