Any xbox gaffers in the euroserver here?

btw are there any disadvantages for stealing armour? i know if a guard confronts you they take all the stolen stuff but is there anything else? I have really crappy armour set at the moment and in the ship outside daggerfell there is a full set of heavy armour!
Get them and then make a guard confiscate everything, you will win a trophy.

you have different options..

you could take it to a fence and launder it so it no longer appears as a stolen armour.

Sell it to a fence.. but you wont make much $$ off of a fence.

you can also enchant it which no longer makes it a stolen item..

or deconstruct it... sell the salvage to a merchant... which also levels up other skills...

steal as much armour and weapons as possible.. deconstruct... re-create it... sell... you can easily boost your skills that way.
and make $$ and buy decent armour at a guild store..

or go on quests.. and find equipment...

I recommend going to the horse stable and purchasing extra inventory slots. you can buy 1 slot every 20 hours.. for 250 and find the guy that sells backpacks

I'm on Xbox Euro Ebonhart Pact (UK Time)
I'm thinking of leaving the 'NeoGaf' guild and joining someone else as there is only 7 people including myself in the roster and I'm always the only player online
 
This is some ol bullshit.
We didnt get the guild trader this time either.

Was doing the bidding, and didn't realise.............the PSN clock is several minutes faster than EST, we're talking more than ten minutes. So the bidding ended a lot sooner than I though, and we were out bidded at the last moment.

This is so fucking stupid.

I'm mad now.
 
Can you send people the racial motif books you buy from the crown store or does it just automatically add the styles to your account?

Motifs are account-bound, so no you can't send them to someone else.

But they're not automatically added since you need to use them on the specific character who you want to have access to that motif.

You will be kicked out of ESO after like, 20 minutes of inactivity.

Its really stupid, just went to the blood fiend area, and theres a few vet rank vampire players just killing them and demanding money for bites.

Fuck that shit. That should be reportable.

That is crap. Is it possible to do the Main story quest line and become a vampire? I know you do bump into a Worm Cult Vamp below the main city in the Level 15 one.
And Daggerfall has an early level werewolf quest line, but I didn't stay alive long enough to get bit, at the level I was at, I think.

The only way besides getting bit another player is to get bit by the werewolves/vampires in the level 37-44 zone of your alliance. Ones you find in other areas can't infect you.

Do you lose the gold you bid when you lose?

So, I just discovered I actually have tamriel Unlimited for free on PC, because I bought the original game, back on April 2014.

How has the game evolved? Can I enjoy it solo?

Could anyone invite me to the EU Ebonheart Pact Guild? PSN: RainyTheB
Is there a UK Gaf guild?
ManThatYouFear needs a home :( elf mage with ebonpact (i think it is called ebon pact.. ebon somthing anyway lol)

I've invited you both.

We really need more people coordinating the EU guild and get one of those guild traders asap. Seems so dead since a while... :(

We just don't have enough members at the moment, sitting at 48, currently, but ideally we want more than 50 incase anyone leaves as that locks it all back up. But until we hit at least 50 members we can't have a guild store nor hire any guild traders.

There are people out there like me who don't charge so hopefully you can find one in Ebonheart. You can always just hang around the altar and see if you can find someone there who won't charge. Oh and leaving your game on won't work since it boots you if you're inactive too long.

Yesterday I was asking on here if anyone in guild has been bitten by a WW so we would possibly do a pay it forward type thing. Looking to get a bite at some point but not paying for it and I get a headache just being in the area with a few hundred people just acting dumb.

Ouch at creative director leaving

Personally I've disliked Paul Sage for a very long time. He was a big reason Ultima Online fell apart. We have a new creative director on this game who is much better in my opinion.

"We can confirm that Paul left ZOS after the launch of ESOTU on console. He, along with rest of the team, are very happy with how the game is doing and we wish him the best in his future endeavors. ESOTU continues to be in great hands with Gamer Director, Matt Firor and new Creative Director, Rich Lambert, overseeing development. Previously, Rich oversaw all content in the game as Lead Content Designer and worked on The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. We’re very excited to have him take on the role as Creative Director!"
 
oh man server is down for maintenance which means less people at the werewolf area and I could've gotten lucky and gotten the bite from the enemy since it wont be crowded with a bunch of people trying to kill it. I'm sad now :( wish i was online

They replaced him with the creative director of Oblivion. They'll be fine, Bethesda has more than enough talent to go around.

Paul Sage is also the reason for no buff icons screen, no damage meters, no name plates, etc. He was very much against it, even giving us the option to turn them on.

I hope this means we will get the option to use those in the future.
 
I've just bought this tonight so when the 15gb :O patch has downloaded I'll be looking to join the ps4 euro guild if that's cool,do I need to create a certain character or pick a certain server,sorry if they're daft questions but I'm not 100% sure on how it works online, my last mmo was WoWondering many years ago!

Do we have a US guild on Ebonheart? We should if not. I have WW and will bite for free any GAFer when the CD is up. ID is Tyreny,

When you start the game it will ask you to select euro server or NA, that's all you need to do.

Nooo no no noo.

My favorite part of this game is the limited UI. I don't need another MMO that is just reading UI information to play the game.

I'm sure this has been discussed so forgive me if I missed it. How are the controls in the game? Specifically for X1. Was pretty impressed with Neverwinter, is this as good as that?

Options. They are a good thing.

Some of us want those details on the screen. They just need an option to leave them off also.

Yeah, if they're an option, you're gonna choose them out of convenience and so you're on par with everyone else.. I think this is one of those things that are better kept out of the game entirely. It's a design decision, and one that is incredibly refreshing for the genre.

I wanted to be a blacksmith, but dang I am having a hard time finding iron and my miner hireling has yet to send me anything. :(

If anyone is wanting an upgraded piece of armor, I just found out that any armor you steal is at your current level and also has a chance at being uncommon (maybe even blue). I do kind of feel sorry for the leather worker in Daggerfell, but it kind of is his own fault for laying out a full set of medium armor with an extra chestpiece and a bit of light armor, then being too busy writing stuff down to look at his merchandise. The stuff that you buy is still usually better, but this stuff works in a pinch.

Steal heavy armor, break it down for ingots, which levels your blacksmithing, and craft gear with ingots.

Everytime you goto the fence, or see a load screen, the world is refreshed, so you can steal all over again.
 
It's so easy to steal shit in this game with no consequences. I get all of my pitch from stealing shields and breaking them down.



Funny/sad story today, this asshole was following around and harassing my wife today likely because she was a woman. Kept trying to get her to join his guild. I hop on later and get the guy to add me to the guild. I proceed to clean out his guild bank and break/sell it all.
 
So another night! Anyone in ebonhart wanna give me that wolfie bite?
If you're on PS4 it's gonna be hard since PSN is down. Again. Sony's incompetence is astounding. Maintenance is scheduled for 9:30 Pacific time so maybe this is just the first time Sony has ever been early with something.

Edit: It's back up. Let's see how long this lasts.
