A Mini Elder scrolls online leveling guide

So you want to gain the Ruby Throne and be the rule of Tamriel. That means you’re going to need to kick a lot of butt, which in turn means you need to level up, fast, so you can dominate in PvP. If you are serious about reaching your dream, you’re going to want to pickup a full length Elder scrolls online leveling guide sooner or later, but in the meantime, here are a few tips to get you started.

Pick a Play Style and Stick with It

Solo and group play require different skill sets and play styles. If you want to level up as fast as possible, pick one style to specialize in and sick with it. You can always branch out later, but to get the most experience you need to power through your quests, and that means having your build optimized for the game you are playing. So pick one, don’t waste your skill points trying to do both.

Go with a Class that Suits You

Play style is big. In theory, DragonKnight and Nightblade are likely to be the two fastest leveling classes in solo play, just because of how flexible they are. However, if your play style favors casting abilities, then you will actually level faster with a Sorcerer, who works with your strengths. Check out an Elder scrolls online leveling guide for more ideas on how different play styles can impact leveling speed, and remember to go with what works for you.

Use Your Crafts

Yeah, we know. Crafting in most MMOs is more of a distraction from leveling then a way to level faster. The thing is, crafting gives you an advantage with gear and consumables. Being able to make your own food means you can always have a food buff. Creating your own weapons and armor will keep you alive longer in combat. With alchemy you can create potions that give you bonuses in a fight. Finally, glyphs made with Enchanting can do everything from kill your enemies faster to boost your survival rate.

But the bonuses from all these crafts together, and you vastly increase your ability to survive quests on the first run through—which is one of the best ways to level quickly.

Explore Everything

ESO doesn’t hand out every quest in the game if you just follow the blinking lights. Some quests you need to go looking for. While many of the good quests will be written up in an Elder scrolls online leveling guide, ESO is new enough that not all the quests will have detailed write ups, and even if they do you know the devs will add new quests. In order to find some of the quests, you are going to need to explore the world. Exploring will also help you find lore books and Skyshards, both of which will get you extra skill points.
