The Ultimate Guide to Building a One-Bar PvP Healer in Elder Scrolls Online

Some time ago, ZeniMax, the developer of Elder Scrolls Online, announced that it would no longer release annual expansions for it, but would instead switch to seasonal expansions. This topic caused a widespread discussion among players. But in fact, this confident developer has changed the game that has been released for more than ten years more than we can imagine. On March 10, you will experience the new Cyrodiil Champions PVP campaign, the revamped starting area, and more complete quality of life improvements in Elder Scrolls Online. These are the features and changes that many ESO players dream of. Of course, the new features and improvements provided in this ESO Update 45 have not only had some impact on itself, some of them can even affect the current MMO game market, such as the addition of a Xbox Series X|S add-on. This is definitely not an exaggeration. If you don’t believe it, then follow this guide to list the improvements and impacts of you. General Improvements First of all, the most important change in Update 45 is the PVP changes in Cyrodiil. Because players have complained too much about server performance during the long-term exploration process, this update brings a new Cyrodiil Champions PVP campaign to all players. Unlike other campaigns, this Cyrodiil Champions will lock players into a special class build, which means that you cannot make corresponding changes to your attributes, abilities, or even items. From a developer’s perspective, this will allow the development team to monitor the server’s response to the simplified abilities and collect a lot of game data to help them plan the future of Cyrodiil and character abilities. For those high-level players, this challenging gameplay may make them feel more excited and accomplished. But that doesn’t mean ZeniMax has given up on the possibility of new players flocking to Elder Scrolls Online, as it has also taken another step in improving the experience for these players in PVE, such as Betnikh, Stros M’kai, Bleakrock, Bal Foyen and Khenarthi’s Roost zones will all undergo a very big improvement. Brighter game environments, a better overall atmosphere, new organic clutter and updated signage will make this ESO, which has been released for more than ten years, more vibrant. In addition, ZeniMax will also increase the starting speed of current mounts in the game, which will be more beneficial for players who have a very slow movement speed or farm ESO Gold. Advanced Improvements In addition to the above regular improvements, you can also expect to see the addition of new item sets and changes to the map: some customizable waypoints may be launched later, and disguises will become your collection in ESO instead of taking up space in your bank. This is great news for players who are not very skilled at picking up Elder Scrolls Online loot that suits them, because they won't often face the situation of running out of inventory space during exploration. Although not part of ESO Update 45, the two dungeons in Fallen Banners DLC, Exiled Redoubt and Lep Seclusa, may provide a better platform for players who love challenges. Most importantly, the storylines and themes of these two dungeons are completely different, and the gaming experience you have in them is completely different. In addition, ZeniMax has now announced that ESO’s add-on components on Xbox Series X|S and PS5 are in preparation and have been tested by developers, which may be big news for MMO gaming industry. Because in the long-term cognition of players, such games are more convenient to play with a mouse and keyboard, and a series of explorations with a handle to control the character may catch people off guard.  So once Elder Scrolls Online, which has been released for more than a decade and is dedicated to updating, successfully makes these add-ons on the game console, it will have a significant reference for other MMOs to improve the player experience on the game console. Summary ESO has cancelled the previous annual chapter update in Update 45, but it has brought more frequent seasonal game content updates to players. I think this is also a major change made by this long-standing MMO to adapt to the current game environment. We can fully look forward to what kind of surprises we will have in this game content and mechanism that is changed every 3-6 months. In addition, we can also look forward to some add-ons that ESO is developing on Xbox Series X|S and PS5. Imagine exploring the vast Cyrodiil and other explorable areas provided by Elder Scrolls Online with a smooth handle. What a pleasure it is! The above is what this guide speculates that Elder Scrolls Online wants to convey to players and the current game world in Update 45. But no matter what, the spirit of ESO’s pursuit of change is very suitable for various current MMO games to learn from, because only innovation can attract more new players and inject new vitality into itself. I wish you a happy game!

With Christmas and the new year, many games are busy launching new seasonal events to provide you with a brand new gaming experience and keep it fresh. Elder Scrolls Online is no exception. In fact, some time ago, ESO not only launched the winter fun event New Life Festival on December 19, but also announced that different seasons will be announced in the game starting in 2025. The combination of these two will surely enable you to consume the last part of 2024 happily and fully in excitement and anticipation. Based on this, we will introduce these two new contents to you. How To Participate In New Life Festival? As one of the winter events, ESO’s New Life Festival will last until January 7 next year. During this period, you can not only enjoy the festive atmosphere in the event but also get ESO Gold, automatic +100% XP gain and more rewards by completing event tasks. It is worth noting that if you want to make full use of this event, please complete the introductory tasks that have not been completed immediately. Or if you already have Breda’s Bottomless Mead Mug stored away, grab them from your inventory. Besides automatically increasing your XP by 100%, New Life Festival also provides you with 10 daily quests to spread holiday cheer across Tamriel. Just complete one daily quest and you’ll receive a New Life Festival box. Specific Rewards Offered By New Life Festival When you receive the festival box, you’ll find items including various alchemical crafting materials, New Life Festival toys, Wolfsbane incense, a selection of recipes, New Life Festival furniture, charity works, and Skin-changer theme pages. Among the new items is the runebox that can open Surprising Snowglobe memento and a bolt of Winter Storm Cloth. You can get it once a day during the event. And if you already get a runebox that day, you have the chance to get a replacement item. In fact, your chances of getting a runebox increase as you have more Winter Storm bolts and New Life Winter Storm Robes - New Life Winter Storm Robe can be crafted with 15 cloth rolls. In addition, with the return of Impresario, you can also get many new and returning items, including all the components of this year’s transformation collection. And if you don’t have enough parts to make the required items, you can exchange them for tickets. It is worth noting that this event announcement details the items you can collect during the event. If you missed the event goods in previous years, you will also have a chance to get them again at New Life Festival. For this reason, we recommend that you can maximize all your opportunities by winning some tickets by participating in the celebration event. New Year, New Season It is reported that Elder Scrolls Online will officially switch the entire game mechanism to a seasonal mode in 2025, and will provide you with more improvements and new content through more frequent updates. In addition, the game team also stated that it will effectively improve PVP mode, the experience of new and returning players, and will introduce new plots to existing areas. How Will The New Season Be Presented? According to the information currently revealed by the game developers, ESO is expected to launch new seasons of three to six months in 2025, instead of annual chapter updates as before. And the new season will bring you new themed story content, activities, store items, dungeons, etc. However, this also means that 2025 is a transitional period for Elder Scrolls Online, because the game team will still release new content based on existing areas, as well as larger projects that are already in preparation - in fact, they have already completed these contents and completely switched to seasonal development. And the aspects of the new season plot in the latest announcement may make you feel a little “return to the roots”. Because the plot begins to refocus on classic game groups such as Thieves Guild, Mages Guild, Dark Brotherhood, and Fighters Guild. In addition, the plot will not only launch new stories in familiar areas but also bring back familiar characters, or expand some continued stories. You will even can experience new areas, although it may take multiple updates. What is more worth looking forward to is that ESO may also improve your combat feel while increasing the difficulty of world battles by updating animations and skill effects. This year, Elder Scrolls Online not only launched a celebration from April to celebrate its 10th anniversary, but also decided to launch the above new game content to make a good start for the next decade, which is enough to show the sincerity of the development team. In order to cooperate with these changes in ESO, iGMeet Discord will also provide you with some game giveaway information in the giveaway channel recently, so that you have the opportunity to get free game props and enhance the game experience! So hurry up and enter!

As we all know, the launch of each new chapter of Elder Scrolls Online will bring a series of new exploration areas and tasks, or introduce some new mechanisms or systems to bring players a different gaming experience. For example, in High Isle, the developers introduced Tales of Tribute card game, Blackwood chapter brought Companions System, and Summerset provided players with Jewelcrafting system. The most important update in the upcoming Gold Road chapter is Scribing System, which changes the game to a great extent by giving more variety to the crafting of builds and bringing a series of complex quest lines. In this guide, we will introduce the operating mechanism of Scribing System and its related quest line, and talk about our views on this system. Scribing System Explained As a typical RPG in ESO, game balance is extremely difficult, and the skill customization system in the game is not as free as Spellcrafting system in Gates of Oblivion, but this does not mean that it lacks depth. Players have access to over 4,000 combinations of scripts and grimoires in the game, and the system automatically filters out combinations that are overly powerful or useless. This means that as long as you have enough ESO Gold, you can complete the most powerful build based on your play style. The 11 new skills are introduced into the game as grimoires, with one for each weapon, world and guild skill line. These grimoires are the basis of Scribing Skills, and the same grimoire can lead to some completely different results by combining three scripts. What Do The Different Types Of Scripts Do? These scripts are divided into three levels: Focus Scripts, Signature Scripts, and Affix Scripts. Focus Scripts largely define where the ability fits in the build, determining its damage type and resources used, and some abilities can even be transformed into taunts or crowd control abilities. Signature Scripts provide synergies such as damage and healing over time or increased movement speed. Affix Scripts typically add buffs or debuffs, such as Prophecy, Savagery, or Lifesteal. While it’s unlikely that a player’s build will revolve entirely around scribed grimoire abilities, the system is a great way to shore up weaknesses in your build or gain new abilities. Often, players struggling with survivability might choose to add something with Lifesteal functionality to their repertoire, or an attention-seeking tank might want to put together an extra taunt that doubles as a defensive buff. Signature Scripts can even completely change the appearance of the ability. We tried various elements of Elemental Explosion and then changed it to a red explosion when we modified it with the physical damage script. Luminaries Questline The quest line that comes with Scribing System is one of the most memorable quests we’ve done in Elder Scrolls Online in years, especially because it introduces new lore about the mysterious and sacred Luminaries. Luminaries are important to the overall game loop. There are four Luminaries here, giving players a reason to jump through hoops in any order they choose to follow this storyline. Just finding each Luminaries was quite a journey, as we had to determine the location of the key fragments by deciphering clues in the book, leading to a brief search for hidden objects mini-game at the destination. Once we finally found a Luminary, they asked players to complete some in-game challenges. These might involve clearing a specific area of Delves or Dark Anchors, killing enough of a specific species, or even participating in a PVP battleground. While it offloads some of the mission work onto existing game content, we actually appreciate the way it allows us to explore overlooked areas and create motivation to participate in other content. We expect the entire questline to take players about six hours in total, although getting to know Scribing System can take up a lot of time. From what we’ve seen, this massive new system and its engaging questline are the highlights of an already strong chapter. That’s everything we know so far about Scribing System in the upcoming Gold Road chapter. Mastering them ahead of time will give you a head start when it comes to new expansions!
