Also completed his Level 30 SP Questline. This time I picked Tharn instead of Lyris to accompany me to save Sai Sahan. Died once to Lyris&#8217; Doppleganger (thankfully that was the only time I died).<\/p>\n<p>After completing the quest, I decided to visit Davon&#8217;s Watch again. As I approached the main center of the city, I was approached by a messenger that popped out of nowhere, saying &#8220;You don&#8217;t know how long I&#8217;ve waited for you&#8221;. And it was an invite to Orsinium.<br \/>\nI was actually planning to start getting the quests for the Fighters and Mages Guilds for him, but somehow I wound up near the recruiter I saw before I got ESO+. This time, having the invitation, I got told I need to follow a caravan.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll spare the spoilers of what happened to said caravan. But I need to add that all the mobs here are&#8230; V16. Somehow I&#8217;m able to kill them, but only 1\/4 the speed I normally can. I feel very weak against these guys (weapon wise, not gear wise). Was told by my Guild that they scaled the player to be V16 (including gear).<\/p>\n<p>But when I was trying to solo this soloable dungeon (all by myself mind you), I died a lot due to how ridiculously weak my blows were (gave the enemy more time to kill me). Where it would take about 5-10 seconds to kill someone, takes 15-30 here. Plus, they seem to keep ripping through my shield. I&#8217;m trying to focus on the shield and I cannot focus on the red at the same time (plus having to focus on Stamina and Magicka levels).<br \/>\nHalf of me wants to quit and go back to the normal zones. The other half wants me to keep going. And I&#8217;ve actually listened to my &#8216;keep going&#8217; side everytime I have that urge to give up. Though I also wish I had a <class> helper mod (like the ones I had in WoW) that would do all the tactical combat thinking for me. But no one wants to make one. Obviously (to <em>them<\/em>), there&#8217;s no need as the game is so easy to figure out your class and class abilities (again.. to <em>them<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>What really sucks about this game, it can&#8217;t treat gear like WoW treats gear; making dropped gear a viable option for people that don&#8217;t craft their own gear. Even Guild Wars 2 and <\/p>\n<p>I also can&#8217;t keep depending on crafting guilds to keep my gear upgraded. Though it makes me wonder if I should take my main and get him into crafting gear for my DK (until he gets up to Veteran status). That is a good viable idea. Just I never had really high Production professions in any MMO.<br \/>\nThis could be my first time, and it&#8217;ll stop having to depend on them (or even need to be a part of a crafting guild).<br \/>\nI wish normal (dropped) gear was more important to use. But I always get the wrong things I need. And by the time I find a set, I&#8217;m already 3-4 levels above it and have to replace again. Plus, it&#8217;s really ridiculous the way the accessory system works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Once a Level 26 DK, now a Level 31.
