ESO Resources: Full Skill Breakdowns

Sometimes you want to know how a skill is going to turn out before you pick it. Mostly, I mean the morph. Recently a friend of mine had tried out the Bow skill “Snipe”, which hits for high damage at long range but has a cast time of 3 seconds. He was entirely underwhelmed with how much other shots he lost in order to cast that attack. Now, I was still considering it – particularly for shooting players on top of keeps in PVP. However, there’s no way to know, in game, if that morph is going to make it any better. I was really hoping for a reduction of cast time or some such. So I browsed online for skill lists and mostly just found sites that had the main list that one can see in game as soon as they created the character. Finally, though, I found one that has a full list with a very clean approach as well. Continue after the break to see the link and a short review of the rest of that website. (more…)

Addons: The Basics

I know some people like to play the game as it comes. As for me, I like to apply a little customization. Given my long history as a World of Warcraft player, there are definitely areas of ESO’s interface that are missing (mostly because of the addons I’m used to using in WoW). But, this game is brand new. It’s been out for 2 days or -3 days depending on how you look at it. Curse (my go to program for downloading and installing WoW addons) doesn’t have a set up for ESO yet. So how do we find these addons and install them? Follow after the break for a great site to find addons, installation instructions, and a couple ones that you might want to pick up now. (more…)
