On Sunday, I had a bad migraine, so I literally sat in my recliner and played ESO for, like, 12 hours. During this time, I…
- Did writs on 7 toons.
- Ran all the surveys and maps I had. (About 15.)
- Completed all the master writs I had. (About 12.)
- Dug up every antiquity I had a lead for. (About 30.)
- Moved into the house you get from the Northern Elsewyr missions, and did a little decorating.
- Bought all the storage boxes you can get, and all the crafting stations. (Using up almost all my writ vouchers.)
- Finished learning all but the 4 most expensive recipes.
- Bought enough motifs to complete several more lines. (I still need 13 more for Master Crafter.)
- Created 3 more toons. (Was making an even 10, one for each race, then realized that you can actually have 20 on one account now, if you pay for the slots.)
- Did HOURS of inventory management. (Can’t quite bring myself to de-con old meta gear I still have.)
- Ran my Arcanist through a random dungeon and all 3 pledges.
Yeah, it was a long day, but the weird part was that I could have played more. I had a great time. I finally have a couple of toons that can do vet trial-level damage numbers, and it feels like I’m finally freed to enjoy everything the game has to offer. And, sure, it’s only the new mythics like the Oakensoul Ring and Velothi’s Amulet that have allowed me to do break into this tier, but I don’t really care. It seems pretty obvious that this is the reason those items were added into the game: to allow people like me — on the DPS bubble — to access end-game content. I don’t really want to run vet trials, as it usually takes hours of concentration and coordination, but it’s nice to know I can. One of these days, I’ll sign up and give it a try in my main guild.
I still don’t really want anything to do with PVP, though I have a bunch of siege-related items clogging up my bank. It intrigues me to find a good PVP guild, and just run with a huge pack to 1) use that stuff up, 2) earn some Alliance Points, and 3) finally get all the skill points related to PVP, and finish the Assault and Support skill lines.
