A remarkably strong yet simple enchantment.

I was surprised at how many fights I was able to one-turn with this thing, and I kind of just stumbled into it. I took Neow's Fury because nothing else offered sounded good. After the first fight, I got the seed event. I usually pick a power for these one-time enchantments, which I had, but then I realized the combo potential, especially on Regent with his zero-energy starting card.

Very nice, would recommend 👌.

The Elder Scrolls classes' reactions after ESO brought classes back to the franchise.

Don't get me wrong, I understand why Zenimax left most of the preexisting classes behind, it's difficult to adapt them all into ESO's system. Furthermore, ESO is an MMO. Balancing is a constant issue that devs need to address. Even when it was just 4 classes they had to account for, things were tough. I can only imagine the hell that balancing for 23 classes would be.

I just made this because I thought it was funny.

What would you say is the best class for an Acrobat?

Edit: RACE, what RACE is best for an Acrobat? fml, I didn't see that error until I hit "post."

Mobility and traversal are my favorite mechanics to play with in games and Acrobat looks like the class for that. I want to min/max the jumping and climbing stuff, so I was wondering what race would be best? The descriptions say Argonians are the best swimmers and Khajiit are the best climbers, but I don't know how much of the descriptions are flavor and how much are actual mechanics. Also note that I'm going into this game blind, mostly, so please no spoilers beyond "there's a lot of/not that much climbing/swimming." I've escaped the sewer as a Battlemage, but I think I want to try out a few more classes before I decide on which one I take to the end.

I made a card as a joke, but it might actually be fun in multiplayer.

M.A.D. stands for Mutually Assured Destruction, btw. The card maker I used couldn't fit that as the title.

Also, Upgrading it would change "current HP" to "max HP"

I have finally escaped the Imperial Sewers! On a related note, how do you cure Leprosery?

It's a bit more gloomy out here than I was expecting.

Also, WHERE IS SAFETY!? I was just trying to look around town and suddenly dropped dead. I thought maybe it was the Leprosery. When I reloaded, I used my healing spell and tried exploring some more. This time, when I started taking damage, I turned around and was getting attacked by an old man with a stick (methinks evil wizard). I died again and the game crashed shortly after I reloaded, so I figured I'd take a break and try to figure out this whole diseased problem I'm dealing with.

ESO was my first Elder Scrolls game. After years of playing, I decided to see where the franchise started. I don't know what this adventure entails, but it seems I will be returning to a place I've been before.

I'm doing a blind run and having fun, but it has been a bumpy ride. 45 minutes in and my adventure so far has been:

  • Did a personality quiz to determine my class. Battlemage.
  • Picked Breton for my race because magic.
  • Ghost lady gives me a rundown on the plot.
  • Woke up in a cell, as per tradition (wait, is it still a tradition if this is where it started?).
  • Found a Katana in a pile of junk. Nice!
  • Got jump scared by a goblin.
  • Died because I didn't know how to fight.
  • Had to restart because I didn't know how to save.
  • Picked my class this time so I don't have to do the quiz again. Still Battlemage.
  • Made basically the same dude as my first character because that sh*t was not my fault.
  • Junk pile did NOT have a Katana this time. F. This is how I learn loot is randomized. Instead I got armor I can't equip. Double F.
  • Find the goblin that killed me last time. Did not get jump scared.
  • Died again because I still don't know how to fight.
  • Had to restart again because I still don't know how to save.
  • Went to UESP and looked up the controls for Arena. I now know how to fight.
  • New save, same class, same race.
  • Junk pile has a Staff this time. My dagger does better damage. F.
  • Find the goblin that has killed me twice now and kill him... in one hit. Wtf, it was that easy?
  • Keep exploring, killing goblins and rats, decide to take a nap in the area that the game keeps telling me is good for taking naps.
  • Ghost lady visits me in my dream. Looks like I'm going to Fang Lair. Hey, I know that place! Fang Lair is a dungeon in Elder Scrolls Online, which is where I first got into the Elder Scrolls franchise.
  • Wake up and decide to test if I can swim. I can.
  • I swim under a wall leading to another room. Screen starts shaking. It is at this point that I realize drowning is probably a thing.
  • There are goblins camping the ledge to get out of the water, so I turn around and... drown. I drowned.
  • Had to restart because I still don't know how to save.
  • New save file. Dark Elf Acrobat because lets try something different.
  • I learned how to long jump. This is fun.
  • After much of the same gameplay loop as last time, I eventually die to a rat because I didn't hear it and couldn't see it.
  • Still. Didn't. Save.
  • New save. Back to Breton Battlemage because I'm afraid the restart-itus is going to keep me in this sewer forever unless I pick a build and commit.
  • First thing I do, hit ESC. Click SAVE and name the save file "Stinky" because I STINK!
  • Basically same thing as my last Battlemage except this time I found a crystal in the junk pile and I save every 10-15 minutes.
  • Fun game.

Somehow I keep getting surprised by this character's most basic mechanic.

Negative Strength doesn't affect Osty's attacks, so when you fight a Hunter Killer as Necrobinder, use your blocking cards first, then attack with Osty.

Thank you bone bro.

The Necrobinder's story mention her and her family meeting a benevolent giant. This giant takes them to meet the Architect, who promptly kills all except the Necrobinder.

I think this giant might be the owner of the giant left hand that is Osty.

In the picture depicting the giant's death, we see him lifting his left hand, and both the giant and Osty are referred to as male.

Mostly, though, I'll admit I just like this theory for the narrative. In his last moments, the giant was fixated on protecting this small child from his brother, and after his death, his spirit lingered, trying to make sure the girl was safe. Then when the Necrobinder got her powers and needed to summon a bodyguard for herself, the image of a protector that she had combined with the spirit and remains of the giant and created Osty.

For anyone wondering how Nimble works on an attack. It just adds 2 to whatever it says on the card. For example, if I hit an enemy for 7 damage, I get 9 Block.

The downside of this is that it only adds 2 block. Sharp would add more block if you have some kind of damage buff (Vulnerability, Lethality, etc.). The upside, however, is that it always adds 2 block, meaning if your damage is debuffed ( negative Strength, Weakness, etc.) you'll get at least 2 block regardless.
