Are you ready to master The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) like a pro? With so much depth and complexity, ESO can be overwhelming for new players. However, we’ve uncovered 13 insanely useful tips and hidden tricks that will elevate your gameplay and save you countless hours. From boosting mount speed to unlocking ultimate regeneration secrets, these are the game-changing tips ESO never explains.
Did you know that weaving light or heavy attacks between abilities can generate ultimate power? This hidden buff increases your ultimate gain by three points per second for 9 seconds—essential for maximizing your combat efficiency.
Fast traveling in the game can drain your ESO gold quickly, but we’ve got you covered with three free methods:
Use a nearby wayshrine for zero cost.
Travel to a starter home and use the wayshrine outside.
Use docks to travel to new zones, even cross-alliance ones, without spending a single coin.
Tired of slow mounts? Unlock the Assault skill line from PvP to get a permanent 30% riding speed bonus. Even PvP newcomers can achieve this by completing quick battleground matches for Alliance Points.
Save gold by utilizing the free Armory Station from the Crown Store. Reset attributes, skill points, and champion points with one click and experiment with different builds at no cost.
Avoid accidentally deconstructing or selling valuable items by using the lock feature. It’s a simple way to safeguard your gear and streamline crafting processes.
Double or triple your skill-line experience gain by equipping multiple skills from the same line. For even more efficiency, you can level weapon skills without equipping them by slotting their abilities on your skill bar.
ESO's champion points system is account-wide. Maximize your benefits by applying movement speed, sustain, and defensive bonuses to even your level 1 characters.
Turn on "Ability Bar Timers" in the settings to track buffs and debuffs across skill bars. This feature simplifies rotations and ensures you never miss a critical skill.
Switch to "Quick Cast Ground Abilities" in gameplay settings to fire AoE skills instantly without the need for aiming. This tweak makes combat faster and more fluid.
Quickly bind or equip set pieces to add them to your collection. The game’s curated drop system ensures you won’t receive duplicates, making farming more efficient.
Use the transmute station to reconstruct Mythic items for only 25 crystals. No need to refarm leads—this tip alone can save you hours of grinding.
Skip the grind of daily stable training by using PvP-earned bonuses or specific consumables to speed up your mount leveling process.
Lock rare or valuable items and deconstruct multiple junk pieces at once for raw materials and faster crafting progression.
