I Spent MILLIONS to Research 3,240 Traits for ONE Reason

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.พ. 2025
  • Over half a year ago I started an endeavour which I'm happy to announce has finally concluded. With all of my ten characters I have finished researching EVERY trait in the game which for 10 characters adds up to 3,240 traits in total. This undertaking cost me millions of gold, dozens of hours of prep and execution and a lot of nerves.
    In this video you'll learn how and why I did it and experience a Lamer, that is VERY happy that this is over. :b

    Quick addition: I don't need 1638 pages anymore because I have already made progress towards that goal. However it holds true that 13 motifs for 9 characters sums up to 1638 pages.

    Major grats! I'm currently working on completing 19 alts with research. It's been a good few months but they're all at least 7 trait now!! Great video as always.

      Now I'm not using the scrolls really. But I just recently was able to acquire all 4 of the grandmaster tables and I have 3 sets in so far. Going to just work on it slowly because I'm getting so many sealed writs now!

    I am working on my crafting at the moment too and seeing you with a 93% motif completion for your main character is simply unbelievable. I had spent quite some time and millions collecting motifs and I am nowhere close to that number.

    • @CasualLamer
      @CasualLamer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you! Honestly most of my gold went into this at some point. I'm still holding out on a few motifs since 127 for example should still drop in price :)

      Hey we crafters have to spend our excess gold on something! Costs a lot to get GM stations filled. 5 months is done with research pages and maxing the station's research. Keep them researching and out of the pubs.

    Not sure how motivated I would be to learning motifs on all my toons since I have 20 but probably at least the cheap ones maybe. Recipes, runes and alchemy traits I have a bazillion of all resources to spare.

    I still think research timers should go in the opposite direction, the more traits you research the lower time it should take for new traits to be researched on that particular gear. So first research should be 30/27 days and the last one 5hrs or so. This makes more sense because the more you research an item the more knowledgeable you get with that item. Also, if you are starting out with a new character, they have other things to do than to just come back every 5-6 hrs to the crafting table. Also they are probably carrying a few items to be researched in their inventory and don't have more than one research slot available.

    That is a lot of grinding… Looking forward to the master writ video! I have been doing the same thing except for on 20 characters however I do not buy the research reduction scrolls and I play on PS NA so I don’t have all those fancy tools to show me what character still needs to learn what. I am 42 Motifs away from finishing my main character and I’ve only started motifs on three other characters. Have you finished your grandmaster crafting tables?

    • @CasualLamer
      @CasualLamer  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Far from it! I keep selling the mats to make gold so I never have enough to get big chunks of writs done haha
      But that's a grind for another day:)

  • @Doodelz02
    @Doodelz02 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Played since beta. 2 Grandmaster crafters. All 18 other toons are effectively GM other than the 50 motif level (so yes, they all know all runes, alch components, etc plus >=25 14-chapter motifs).
    Got so bored I effectively quit crafting :p. 99% burned out + space issues on account of "hoarder" 😂
    9 traits (without the research pages) takes just under a full year, btw. Did that repeatedly over the years, as new classes were introduced. (Excel ftw! 😝)
    Think I'm insane? I'd not argue too hard ... but am aware of folks who have at least claimed to have done this on multiple accounts!

    • @CasualLamer

      @Doodelz02 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @CasualLamer yes, crafting stations were maxed the day after that went live (I give it a day or so "just in case ZoS goes whoops")!
      Retired, but spending more time on healthy things these days! Heaven help me if they ever release ESO v2 🤔

    @Hippo_27 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey I did the same thing. I have 9 characters with basically the same setup. I'm not interested in the extra motif chase though with them. I may have missed this, but consumable master writ drops are increased by character knowledge in that discipline. I believe it's purple and gold recipe knowledge for provisioning, stone translations for enchanting, and reagent trait knowledge for alchemy. Did you do these? I noticed that's what bumped me up for those writs. Durables aside from JC are harder to get 'perfect' because there are so many motifs.

    Wow I never looked it my lazy writ stats. Mine have been tracking since Monday, June 29, 2020. It says I've done 61,269 writs in 1615 days. It's not completely accurate though because I've ruined my addon settings a few times and had to paste in older copies I made as backups. Around the time they changed how jewelry works I thought I noticed my researched toons were getting more master writ drops. So I did research on all 20 except for nirn. Thanks for letting me know my hunch was right.

    Well, I have 21 chars with all the traits researched and 19 others are starting to learn 8th traits on blacksmithing and clothier, and it will take them like 9 months to finish... I had real inventory issues because of master writs back when i was doing dailies on all 40 chars even with ESO+, lucklily thats gone after the economy crash. Welp, good luck on your grind.
    P.S. my main main knows all the motifs except for last 2 or 3 ones and my second account main knows something like 100+ motifs.
