My friend is getting this game however i've heard that some folks who've bought keys for it from g2a have gotten banned with no appeal. Is this true? If so, would keys from green man gaming work and not get him banned?

5/5 spider cultist 3/5 scathing mage Iceheart's guise in bag, using spider cultist head for the 5/5 bonus.
Pic related are my skills, both lightning staff.

Daniel Walker
So few Xbone EU people here. I'm honestly worried that it'll die off before any other server/platform combo in 3 or 4 years. If so, ZOS would need to allow an account transfer similar to when they first did the console launch.
Jordan Long
Just a few things off the top of my head. I'd swap out overload for suppression field, but thats a personal thing. If I need to damage an eney with an ult, the lightning destro ult is the best tool for that. Suppression field is great for fights where you get swarmed by adds and need some breathing room, like the overfiend in ICP, it'll stun everything but the boss itself, negating the damage spike.
Spider cultist is a good set, I have it myself. I tried it for a while with netches touch, going 5/5 with each. My skills hit like a truck, especially lightning blockade with its extra 800 damage a tick, but the rest of my stats suffered. Personally, I think you'd get better mileage out of julianos, a more well rounded set, and word has it that its going to get a nice buff with the set changes in the next patch. There is no real reason to use scathing mage unless you are using the 5 piece, and even then sorcs have better options.
My basic suggestion as far as gear is concerned, see if you can get a 5 piece julianos for your body, and willpower jewelry. If you provide the mats, you should be able to get it for a reasonable cost. Since you are a stamina race, you are giving up extra magicka, but your health is also pretty low. That can probably be remedied with a piece of heavy armor (2% more health) and the undaunted passives at rank 2 (another 2%). More in the next post.
Hunter Cruz
Iceheart is a great defensive set, and can be very useful in VMA, I run it on my magblade. As a sorc, you should be trying to aim for llambris, as they can make the bet use of the procs. However, the new monster head that is coming in the next patch may be a better bet, as it does a slightly weaker DoT in a fuck huge area and increases spell power while you are inside of it. Just switching to an offensive monster set (if you want to use a monster set) will greatly improve your DPS.
Honestly, I don't know what that first skill even is, so i won't comment on it. I would recommend switching lightning flood to liquid lightning, the longer duration will fit easier into a rotation, and since you aren't casting it as often it helps some with sustain. Shock clench is a great skill, I hope it sees more use. Some people like crystal frags, but I am not a fan. Sure it does great damage, but to me I'd rather not have to watch for the proc, I slot mages wrath instead, but that is preference. I am weird that I don't use force pulse, but with my build I don't need a spammable. The main benefit to force pulse is to proc llambris, which you aren't using. Its one way to drain yourself of magicka quickly. Next post.
Nathaniel Jackson
It's probably going to take me a while to make the julianos set and ttc isn't giving me any results searching for Julianos. As for the willpower stuff, I'm sitting on 44 key fragments. I reduced my health a bit when I swapped from 32/32 magicka/hp to what I have now, when buffed I have 16k hp and had more back when I made the switch.
I'm not set on iceheart, I just happened to get it doing a dungeon. I'll try and get ilambris, though. I mostly want to make sure I can hold on to this 5/5 spider cultist ,so I need to replace the head. Mostly using crystal frags so level up dark magic, it's at 38. I may respec my morphs eventually.
Evan Nguyen
just make an email on like gmail or something and only use it for ESO?
Josiah Murphy
Finally, if you want to go for a set that adds straight numbers, julianos would be a good place to start. I would also recommend looking at netches touch. Its like spider cultist, but it adds 400 damage to your shock abilities. So you lay down blockade of lightning and liquid lightning, and apply shock clench, and all of those get 400 more damage per tick. It also applies to the shock destro ult. I use netches 5/5 on the body in divines, llambris heavy head and medium shoulders (head divines, shoulders have been elusive so they are well-fit or some shit), and willpower jewelry with spell damage enchants. I use two sharpened lightning staves, front bar has a spell power enchant, back bar has a fire enchant (serves only to proc the fire effect of llambris which has a cooldown independent of the shock proc, so both can proc at the same time). My stats will be higher just because f my passives and being a high elf.
Just some things to think about.
Alexander Sullivan
Shit, forgot, that is also with food. I use red frothgar for health and magicka regen, just because I prefer to have regen over more magicka.

Kayden Turner
I love the sound effect it has when you approach it. Is there any lore explanation for this?
Justin Ramirez
there have been issues with other games of devs claiming that they were "stolen" keys, and banned a swathe of people. they never had to prove the keys were stolen, they just said it.
Samuel Lopez
I know there is, but I can't remember it. Its a shame, when I first started playing I got the frost mare mount from my free crate, and I love the look, but the ambient noise it makes souds just like nirnroot. I've stopped and dismounted looking for it many times, even in the middle of the alik'r desert, so I just stopped using the mount.
Isaac Garcia
Appreciated, I'm in a dungeon right now and am seeing a bit of a difference in damage done.
Asher Hall
No worries. Its more of a general purpose set, good until you figure out what you want to specialize in, be it spider cultist, netches touch, moondancer, etc.
Carson Gutierrez
It sounds like a healing spell.
"Careful scrutiny of the samples revealed that they were rife with "ash salt," a highly magical substance. Dunmer native to the Vvardenfell region were known to have used ash salt as an ingredient to cure the "Blight," an awful disease which decimated their realm hundreds of years ago. This unique property of the ash salt coupled with the nirnroot's inherent magic caused the radical change... in essence; the root "healed itself."

Bentley Mitchell
What 5 piece should I try grinding out now for my Magblade since Scathing Mage will no longer proc on path?
Jaxon Walker
with changes to the set bonuses and mundus stone, julianos might actually be bis with moondancer 4 piece front bar vma staff back bar.
Ryder Lewis
Yeah that crit will be really nice, I need to get on MoL, only trial I have been into so far is SO and no aether to instead.
Lincoln Russell
I think I may be doing less damage now. Is there something wrong in my rotation, maybe? I'm respeccing my morphs to maybe fix that.
Hunter Morris
whats the easiest way to grind out levels solo? I'm making my a stamdk and the early levels are a slog. How early should I be getting vigor?
Angel Diaz
whoops diddn't mean to quote
Samuel Martinez
For a stam dk, you have access to dragon blood morphed into green dragon blood, which will give you a heal as well as increase your health and stam regen, so you can wait on vigor a bit if you have to. Its still an important skill, and I hate it because I suck so much at pvp.
Zachary Myers
Its about finding what works for you. With my build of netches touch x 5, willpower x 3, llambris, gold sharpened lightning staves, I use
That is for pugs, solo, and regular dungeons. I can do 22k - 26k single target with this set up if the tank is using puncture for major breach. In most pugs, no one is going to keep major sorcery up, but the tank will hopefully be using pierce armor for major breach, so I don't need to run elemental drain, just keep my own sorcery up. Since my lightning skills get a big buff, I lay down blockade, clench, then liquid lightning, and I do two heavy attacks (they also get the damage boost from the netchs touch), then repeat. I am almost always 80%+ on magicka except for burn phases. In a good group where I don't need boundless storm I'll switch in crystal frags, since I normally get the proc on my back bar when I am reapplying my DoT's so I don't need to bar switch. For a good group where I don't need to keep power surge up, I can also slot force pulse on the front bar for a spammable.
Christian Gray
Should skeleton khajiit have boobs? And teal bones?
Jayden Cruz
I will say, people who look at streamers like Alcast and say they are the be all end all are wrong. They are a fantastic resource, but don't take them as gospel. Like, loot at Alcast's build, people try to run that solo and wonder why they die. No power surge to self heal. It is a build that is designed for max DPS within the context of a well geared trial. People are wearing different armor sets to compliment and buff each other, so you can forgo some defense for damage. We can't play that way normally.
People need to realize that you aren't going to be getting 40k DPS in a regular pug because the same synergy in gear and buffs aren't there. Not talking to anyone in particular, just been enjoying a few drinks and felt like venting about this issue.
Lincoln Anderson
Its from where the dress was stretched out in life.
Charles Morris
Is 5/2 worth running for the extra health? Thinking about VMA mostly because I still don't have any medium shoulders but just got a heavy helm, or should I swap my heavy chest for a medium piece to keep 5/1/1?
Brody Butler
thanks, bb now we know!
Hudson Nguyen
honestly it comes down to what you are more comfortable with. if you feel better getting the more health, then go for it, if you want the more defense from the heavy chest than go with that. the important thing is that you keep at least 5 pieces in your specs armor weight for the bonuses, such as 5 light for the spell crit and magicka regen.
Evan Ward
The real question is >should a stamina race play a magicka spec?
Yes if the player has the skill to make up for it
Brody Campbell
Is stam sorc fun? Magicka sorc fairly repetitive, but I suppose i am playing an mmo.
Mason Sanchez
I agree. I play altmer magsorc because I am an eternal shitter and I need all the help I can get. I have come to terms with this over two decades of MMO's, I am at peace.
Landon Phillips

be careful, get to close to the fire and youll get burned
David Collins
What a fucking shitty screenshot.
Anthony Robinson
love you too babe
James Bennett
I would still have my 5 light pieces yeah, and since I haven't farmed any BiS gear I can still play around with my crafted stuff. I think I'll give it a shot and see how it goes, running 5 julianos and 2 groth now, maybe the health will help keep me out of water and finally get gooder.
Nolan Perry
vma ive found is like getting laid the first time, tons of build up, tears, blood, sometimes an angry brother or two, but once youve done it once it gets easier each time
Jack Walker
I gave up on the spider daedra round to grind my undaunted to 9, I really need to get back at it.
Brayden Scott
>bow of the viper apparently doesn't drop anymore I wonder in all the times I've grinded this shit dungeon I never seen one.
Jacob Parker
that is the round that fucked me for the longest time, another user here wrote a guide that helped to break me through
biggest thing about the boss round is that there is an enrage timer on her. you have 2 minutes to kill her or she one shots you. you can reset this timer by dewebbing all the obelisks and stunning her. so during the boss fight, the biggest thing to watch for are the hoarvers to dewebb the obelisks and the spiders trying to cover them again. the mini daedra needs to die fast since it slows you, making it hard to escape the spider swarm and the bosses aoes. besides that, its just a matter of doing damage to her, interrupting her attacks, and moving. if you can get her to 60% health before you stun her and drop your ultimate on her you should be able to burn her down without having to worry about stunning her again. but, make sure obelisks are uncovered to hide from the spider swarms.
Jacob Lee
New to the game, trying to figure out what to play.
It seems like Nightblade is going to be my pick. I like melee classes, but Templar seems alright too.
Jaxon Collins
Stamina nightblade is a true glass cannon, kill before they kill you. You will be squishy but do a shit load of damage. Magicka nightblades are all about utility, they boast good damage, can heal, stun, immobilize, root, buff, debuff, all at the same time. Templar healers are some of the best thanks to all of the skills at their disposal, and stamina templars are very active in their playstyle, always re-positioning and attacking to gain the most advantage.
Dylan Campbell
Good to know, I will probably try again after a few trial runs tomorrow. I'll have to remember this advice.
Evan Smith
Do Nightblades see action in PvE? I plan to do a ton of PvP but I would also like to see PvE side of it
Logan Nguyen
One of the best trial guilds in the world runs with 2 NB.
Jonathan Russell
Stamina nightblades have some of the highest DPS parses in the game. The problem is that because they sacrifice defense and living for their damage, they don't get to flex their luxurious DPS much except for well planned trials (this games raids). The biggest problem with nightblades is that other classes, such as magicka sorcerers, can do almost as much damage but they can do it from range, so they are safer (not as many boss aoe's and close range attacks to worry about). NB's did get some buffs in morrowind, such as blade cloak that reduces their aoe damage by 25% (?) making them a bit more hardy. Also, to get the high damage, stamina NB's are very ger dependent, so you will need to farm for the best stuff to make it work. but trust me, once you make it work, you'll break bones and laugh.
Colton Robinson

Matthew Davis
level all 3 class skill lines, the passives alone are valuable. from there, decide if you want to use dual wield or twohander. later, you'll want to put a bow in your second weapon slot and second skill bar that opens up at level 15.

Damn, they changed the champion points a lot now. Is pvp better now? It seems less retardedly OP.

I do everything but that's because I'm an OCDish completionist and get off on seeing every quest hub icon on the map turn white
Really you can skip them if you want, very few reward anything more meaningful than a chunk of gold and a usually-mediocre piece of gear, and the ones that give skill points are pretty much always in the faction's main questline
