5 Tips for Soloing ESO (The Elder Scrolls Online) in 2022

Thanks for watching! I mis-spoke on Crit Surge, I said it gives you critical, it actually gives you Weapon and Spell Damage. But what tips would you give players that want to play solo?

Adam...you are the reason I have started loving the game again. You make it possible for us to play the way we want. Thank you!!!

what are the motifs on the thumbnail?

i need friends bro💀

I never liked how they say if you played oblivion or Skyrim you would feel right at home in eso which is not true at all, eso is way harder to make a custom build and figure out what to do next or compete against other players In PvP. Conclusion is eso is way different than Skyrim and oblivion despite what zenimax says and when I came to eso from Skyrim I was very disappointed and most would be too so you have to understand what an mmo is before you start the game

All I see is u on some weak looking lava level, this game looks weak

Gonna give it a whirl 👍

Yoooo whats the armor on the thumbnail

okay, but the question is what i am supposed to do solo? The world mobs are too easy and they doesnt drop anything good and there is just no point besides doing the stories which ive done alot. Map bosses are too easy on some maps, and on some my companion dies in 5s and they are undoable. I have no way of doing these maelstrom arenas cuz I have no dlc and they have banned rubles payment so i cant even buy it cuz my steam is in rubles. I cant queue solo for dungs and there is no point also. I think that the game is missing hard on challenging solo pve content. I would do trials I dont mind playing with other players but no voice chat in this game makes it hard to socialize and these funny trials that I didnt manage to do even once in every guild are once a week on specific day and hour. Sad that new world has everything eso doesnt and the other way it goes aswell :/

Does anyone know the armor from the Thumbnail?

Brah, thanks for the tips!

I'm new to ESO and can't find anything to show a nice build for starting out or what sets I should be saving also keeping in mind I don't know the lingo yet.

Will you still start in Cold Harbor if you buy the expansions? I haven’t played this game in years and have this thing where I prefer to play in order. Cheers.

I’m using a magcro and have mirri setup for healing with all minus ability time gear. She really does an amazing job. I literally almost NEVER need to heal myself. Along with spirit guardian I’m pretty hard to kill. I’m at CP150 and using mother’s sorrow and Medusa. Working on getting my alchemy to 50 and getting ring of the pale order then off to get some real weapons and and some real sets

Hey would mind sharing the name of the dyes used in the outfit of the thumbnail?

I’m reading that False God’s Devotion drops from a Trial… not exactly a place a solo player can just regularly go or want to go. Ironic? I’ve looked around guild stores and cannot find any for sale either.

“Solo player” and “trial gear” can’t realistically go in the same sentence together as far as advice is concerned. That’s just not how the game works. I’m newish (level 41 sorcerer), literally had never attempted a trial, and realized I would need a large, skilled group to get the gear you recommend. I misinterpreted the video as advice for solo-only players, not advanced players who sometimes wanna go solo

How you gonna give solo advice and then recommend trial gear ? Lmao you literally have to be in a 12 man group to get it ? How is that solo friendly ? Trash content

Wow!! That all black 'Sauron' looking skin looks incredible

I dont know if its possible but it would be really cool if they let you solo raids as well as dungeons

Very good video I am a new player who is enjoying the game a lot! I have one thing to point out though,, you were talking about some good solo armors to have but they require going into trials- how would I get them if trials are large group content?

One thing to add is Champion Points
Use a combination of damaging and sustaining ones.

A simple change to two lines of the Warfare constellation made me complete vet Maelstrom Arena

holy SHIT the armor in that thumbnail is sick please drop the motifs

Any guide to increase DPS for a sorcerer? I'm up to the point where I can easily solo public dungeons (not much of a challenge, tbh) , but when it comes to group dungeons I feel like I'm lacking a punch. Also, world bosses are still way, way out of my league unless I have back up of at least two more players. Please help! :(

Yo i wear the exact same skin as the thumbnail, same as the colour

Just started playing a few days ago and have watched probably 15 of your videos. Thank you so so much for all the help.

I was kinda chuckling when you'd talk about the DK, because that's the only one I can do anything with 😄 I usually prefer casters, but ended up liking a stamblade enough to reach 810CP with him (literally the evening before they announced the 2.0 change 😭😄 ). Kept dabbling with other classes though until I found what I liked with magdk to the point that he's become my main. I focus on lots of DoTs and AoE, basically setting everything on fire and keeping that way, and I use Mad Tinkerer because I think it's fun, it's kinda like bowling haha. Only group content I bother with is stuff like dragons because I just don't care about dungeons and whatnot right now. Sustain can definitely be an issue for me, but I've done a lot more with him than I could ever do on my stamblade (which, granted, is a less forgiving class and harder to play well).

Hey question for anyone who knows. If I run a bastion tank and use ring of pale order, can bastion still heal me? And does he lower my rings healing by 4%? Thanks if anyone knows

What was the armor you are wearing? Great vid!

Soloing as a necromancer is fun and easy for me. But I tried warden and didn’t get it lol which is kinda funny because people always say they’re very similar.

What armor are you wearing in this vid

I'ma need to know exactly what that armor in the thumbnail is piece by piece! I know the chest and gloves are Daggerfall motif, but what about the helm and shoulders?

Ring of the pale order. If you can get it, do it. Its an absolute game changer for soloing

Piece of shit game.

I’ve ran into the problem of needing a trial gear set to properly equip my character. But it’s impossible for me to run a trial solo right now. And it’s difficult to find a group to do trials with. Finding a guild that regularly runs trials is also difficult. I’ve only encountered guilds that have set scheduled days and time frames for running trial content. And that’s with the expectation that you’re already a cp 1000. Working a full time job with a baby, guilds just simply become an option I don’t have. Not trying to come off as complaining. Just wanting to give off the fair warning that I wish I had when picking up this game. It’s hella fun to play. But unless you have time, there’s certain “walls” you’re going to run into as a solo player. There may be a lot of “settling” you’ll have to do.

Your videos are so helpful, love them. Little constructive criticism just because I've noticed this, your mic picks up a lot of your breathing at times

boring shit game and bethesda

So where would be a good place to good place to go to see solo builds? Like if I wanted to run a templar solo where could I go to find what skills, stats, etc. work best?

is the game worth playing even today? I'm waiting on Elden Ring to be released and I'm super bored rn and want to play something fun. I have no experience with MMO games but I would like to learn.

Lol feel like "you're beast" yes 90% of players feel this way. Yet everyone plays within the confines of the algorithm. 😂

#1 dont play pvp alone

The best most meta strategy is oils rn

broooo this is fire

Dont ever speak up in a trading guild. Theres such an extreme power trip amongst Guildmasters and the people in them. Charging dues, and even offering "lifetime" spots for sometimes mils in a guild that can flop in an instant, or if you upset he can boot you in an instant...lifetime membership, dues, or not. Lesson: dont interact with anyone in trading guilds. Power tripping, pimply faced fucks are the ones who run them. Like gas monkey on NA XBOX. :)

Baston in purple gear tanks quite well, hardly lets me down soloing dungeons for a challenge. He does need a good amount of levels though.

Playing solo for bit helps you become a better player in the long term as long as you’re not using one of Minotaurs one bar builds or some kind of heavy attack build. Go focus on spirit slayer or flawless conq for a bit then come back and join a pug vet pledge and you’ll be carrying the group 75% of the time

Really hope we see alittle more changes to companions. Other than more variety my question to the community would be:

How would you like to see them change?

My 3 would be:
1) Dailies, the Companions can do one specific "job" one per day while not summoned or while you are not logged in (Mirri could search for treasure maps).
2) Companions bag space, even if this was linked to eso+, having the ability to have gear presets that could be saved in their inventory would be a a bit of help. As a bonus they could hold items like treasure maps (Mirri) or siege items (baston) as a bonus baston could get a spawn point in pvp areas where you can access him and the inventory.
3) Items (scrolls or books?) that will teach Companions mechanics for dungeons and such.
