Haha, it really is an empty victory. What are the other three groups claiming as a time? We did it at 5pm EST.

Moved into Grahtwood for some grinding last night. Damn this shit is crowded. Couldn't find a good grind spot. Started doing quests and the stupid "defeat the pirates" quest in Haven is bugged. Ah well. The quests on this map are very compact and efficient.
Anyway, fuck Weakness to Elements. Taking fucking forever to level. It's now IV and maybe 25% to the morph. I've got a theory in mind for Night Blades. They can be bursty and elusive as fuck. Weakness to Elements morphs into Elemental Drain which procs (at least at level I) 100 mana every time you do fire/cold/shock damage. This includes both DOTs and weapon procs. If you play a NB, in 5pc Medium armor, Flurry Morph, and Haste you can achieve at least 58% attack speed. That's not including weapon traits, and with dual wield you can get at least 10-15% more. However you might want to stack weapon enchant cooldown.
Anyway, I'd like to test attack speed + this ability + siphoning and see how much damage/mgen I can achieve with a build like this. It probably wouldn't work, but I'm interested in giving it a go.

Yeah, stickin to your on-hit guns. You going to use the extra mana for surprise attacks or something?
Yea the people who grind levels or spend most of their time in Cyrodil are going to have problems getting Mage Guild rank. The players who explore the PVE content will be the ones who level it the fastest since they will come across the lorebooks while questing and exploring.
One tip I can give when out in the PVE zones is to look for campfires. Those almost always have lorebooks at them.

Eh, I only wanted rank 2 mage guild for magelight, and the books are retroactive if you skip the initial quest like I did (finally did it at level 27) I immediately jumped to rank 2 based on the books I had previously found.

The lorebooks and the skyshards are a cool idea but they're too well hidden. Chests and independent high-value low-time resources should be hidden well. Stuff that you need to progress your character shouldn't be well hidden.
Right now I play with four monitors. One has my game, one has a map of all the skyshards and another has a map of all the lorebooks. Of course soon (and possibly already?) there'll be a mod that just puts all the books/skyshards on your map.

They aren't hidden from the people who actually explore the world. Isn't that kinda the point?
Anyways, aside from server issues that cause broken quests, my only other gripe is this retarded guild selling system. Make it so you're in one guild and create faction based auction houses. This shit is straight up retarded the way it is.
I must say this has to be the best looking MMO graphically to date.
I essentially want to try to cycle Flurry/Haste then Disguise/Surprise attack and weave in L/H attacks. Toss in Ambush for mobility. In Theory.
Best part about Ambush and Disguise is that you can hit Disguise when you're ambushing and essentially pop out of Ambush in stealth. This game has some weird delays/animation lag that makes you not switch weapons or fire abilities off because of lag. It was really bad last night.

Recommend picking up the Shadow set for the on hit poison dmg (medium armor 3 set)(4 second cooldown on hit proc)

Oh Right, I think red mountain was the set to get then for the fire dmg proc with a 4 second cooldown. (drops at level 25, most commonly from mobs in cyrodiil)
Save them for me if ya come across them. If the build actually works (it probably won't), it would come into it's own until I can get Haste which requires 42 pts in Assassination. Gonna be a while.

I would be very surprised to find that even the most exploration driven player achieved greater than 50% of the lorebooks in the game. Many are obvious, but they're so small and some are hidden very well.

Just got this from GMG for those who ordered from them. Just copied the first part of the e-mail.
Thank you for pre-ordering The Elder Scrolls? Online: Imperial Edition. The official launch has finally come and we are pleased to send you your unique activation codes later today!
You will receive three codes:
1 x EARLY ACCESS code
1 x MAIN GAME code
1 x EXPLORER'S PACK code
Might want to keep an eye out on your e-mail and get that code registered asap if it comes today. Tomorrow will most likely be a clusterfuck.

I don't even know what the main game / early access codes are supposed to do. Hopefully they get around to sending me my forum invitation soon.
Who is going to start playing tomorrow who isn't already playing? Just people wandering around Best Buy and see TESO and think it's a Multiplayer Skyrim DLC right?
