Hey Shimmer, could you make a short video on how to go to the store and buy the free DLC, I've lost my patience trying to explain simple things to the vision impaired.
I have been in ESO running solo off and on since Feb 2014. I do not even have a real guild to run dungeons with yet. Watching this... I will dip my toe into the Chaos and see what I have been missing. I will no longer be a casual!!! LOL! Thanks for the video. I will lurk some of your pas videos now and see what else I may have missed.
Thank you for making this video! Me and my friends started playing elderscrolls online on ps4 like a week ago and we all got super invested but had zero idea how to do anything with the campaign or pvp lol
Yeah my biggest pet peeve is youtubers that just babble nonsensically just to add time to their videos. I try to have the least amount of fluff in mine.
This is such a great video, you cover everything in such a clear and concise way. Helped me tons! Thanks so much for your work and for sharing your knowledge
Step one. Follow the huge groups around. Step two. Argue with your own alliance in zone chat. Step three. Get 35k+ health. Step four. Prepare for massive lag and glitches. Step five. You are now pro. (Sad but true)
Thank you!!! I joined a battle ground just to see what it was all about and I was so lost. I had no idea what the hell was going on. I eventually caught on but was panicking. I also learned that my character is not built for pvp and kept dying in 2-5 seconds. My poor team mates lol I bet they hated me
Awww! You’ll get the hang of it! Don’t worry about others and what they say. New players have to start somewhere!! When I’m in a bg with a newer player I take the time to help them out when I can haha!
Incredibly helpful video. I have been reluctant to try a campaign being a guildless solo player, but I feel less reluctant now. Thanks for the crash course 😉
Nice video! Might want to mention that the load screens for Cyrodiil delves are *notoriously* long, so dont think you're going to dip in, take the skyshard and get back out to the carnage in any quick fashion. :)
Thank you for this guide, that was really well explained and well put together! As a new player I was looking for a good guide and it seems I found it. Your guide explains pretty much everything. Again, thanks a lot!
You are the only person to expain how battering ram works. Not even eso tutorial or wiki has the info that there must be 3 people near it in order for it to work. I wasn't sure what I was doing wrong and why I have only the option to pick it back up and not operate it. Turns out they magicaly work on their own when you stand near. If it works on its own why do you even have to stand near it? I just want to spawn a horde of battering rams and send them towards the enemy.
Yeah so, I skipped the tutorial by accident cause I don;'t really listen to what characters say LMAO but I'm glad I came to this video cause I feel like it probably covered more than the tutorial.
Glad you can experience this,i can only lag and dc there so im stuck with battlegrounds😅 everywhere i go is fine,but cyro just doesnt work for me at all
I know I'm comenting on a two yr old post but gotta say, this is good. you should make one for this year after the way they turned cyrodiil back to it's former hardcore self lol
Yea I had stepped away for a bit during covid (I’m in hospital nursing) and it was all too much with being forced to work overtime at the hospital on Covid units and having my toddler. I just came back to it, and this is on my list to update!
Thank you, last time I played they barely added cyrodil, I played it for a bit and only recently started up eso again and had forgotten everything, big help, also I love eso bc it seems like a lot of women play it and that’s rad as hell
Hi! I’d say I’m a newer player. I’m on my first account, and I played through quite a lot of quests including the default harborage quest line. I’m in the ebonheart pact, level 37 at the time of this comment. I’m sort of interested in the pvp and so I find myself watching this video. Seems fun but my main question is do you lose items on death or is it a “safe” pvp mode?
Shimmer Ah I see. Awesome! That actually encourages me to try it out even more :) Thanks for all the info and help. I’m loving ESO so far it’s honestly the game I dreamed about all those years ago when I played Morrowind for the first time haha
... no. The alliance you chose for your character is locked to that character forever, unless you buy a alliance chance token from the crown store. Any race any alliance just allows you to make a character and choose whatever race you want and whatever alliance you want. If you don’t have any race any alliance only certain races can be certain alliances. You’re locked to choosing from those.
I recently did the Cyrodiil delve achievements, and learned that the annoying respawn thinger with delve bosses is no longer a thing. All bosses are now on a normal respawn schedule. Hooray!
@@jacquib4048 you get it constantly now as long as you have the passive purchased. It’s actually better now because it doesn’t take up a bar slot, and you don’t have to keep constantly firing it off!
@@jacquib4048 its in the assault passive as continuous attack. There are a skill in one of the skill trees after level 50 that also boost mount speed. So i do like that they did this because you don't have to keep using the skill but it also means that some people would go to cyrodil warfare to level up this skill to get at it.
This video should have been like a cut scene before going into Cyrodiil. But Nooooo, instead I just walk in blindly and BOOM....buh bye Telvar stones. I don't even know what hit me, where I was or what happened and my ass is sore.
What in the name of Vaermina, this is so complex 0.0 I just want to discover the locations and explore, makes me wish they'd make a separate Cyrodil instance for PvE'rs that's a completely different instance than PvP. It's literally the only map on my game that I've never touched but I'm just a simple solo player
I wish!!! Re roll your character to DC. That’s the only way. ZOS has stated they aren’t going to be doing faction changes. So you would have to make a new character in the faction you want (the team you wish to be on).
It all depends on the time you’re playing. There are peak times like any online MP game. You do get the odd “dead” campaign servers but there’s always ones that are absolutely packed 20 out of 24 hours per day.

LOL! 5 years:p
Hey Shimmer, could you make a short video on how to go to the store and buy the free DLC, I've lost my patience trying to explain simple things to the vision impaired.
Wow finally! A guide that explains how to leave Cyrodiil. I've been stuck in here for 5 years. Thanks.
Haha! Glad you are saved!!
Hahahaha!!
I literally had a panic attack earlier trying to leave, had to “ call a friend”
I still can't get out. It has been 2 days now. I went and created another char just so I could be able to play without being frustrated
th-cam.com/video/ZBJDjDzAZzU/w-d-xo.html
Exactly what I was searching for, your video explained everything a first timer like me needs to know, truly great work. Thanks.
Glad to help!!! Welcome to ESO!
10 seconds into the video and I already know it is a good quality video. I'm going to say thanks already while watching for the great tips.
Thanks! May it help you bathe in the blood of your enemies!!! 😂🤗
Thx. I went in there and I was lost
You’re welcome! Have fun killing all the enemies!
Terrific Guide Shimmer ;) Thanks so much from the community that loves ESO as well :) An for all the time you take for these to be so in depth.
Thanks! This one did take me a loooong time to do but I wanted to make sure it covered everything!
I have been in ESO running solo off and on since Feb 2014. I do not even have a real guild to run dungeons with yet. Watching this...

Can I just say you did a really good job. To the point, no opinions about Bethesda, and very informative. Sincerely thank you!!!
Yeah my biggest pet peeve is youtubers that just babble nonsensically just to add time to their videos. I try to have the least amount of fluff in mine.
As a seasoned MMO player and new eso player: THANK YOU!!!
You’re welcome!!!
Very informative for first time players!! Great vid Shimmer!! :)
Thanks! :D
This is such a great video, you cover everything in such a clear and concise way. Helped me tons! Thanks so much for your work and for sharing your knowledge
You’re welcome!! Have fun in Cyrodiil!!
I was going bonkers trying to figure out how to get in and out and travel in Cyrodiil, THANKS !
Haha! You’re welcome!
Step one. Follow the huge groups around.
Step two. Argue with your own alliance in zone chat.
Step three. Get 35k+ health.
Step four. Prepare for massive lag and glitches.
Step five. You are now pro.
(Sad but true)
God the chat is so toxic lmao
@@ShimmerVids yes it is. Ugh. I get involved sometimes and I apologize if anyone reads this. Lol
I....I do to.... I admit I get triggered pretty easily and nowadays turn it off when in zone lmao!
I BECOME A TERRIBLE PERSON WHEN I PVP! 😂
@@ShimmerVids I blame the lag. 😉
Thanks for this video Shimmer. I’ve done pve but just starting pvp. Very different and exciting adventures. The information you gave is very helpful.
Good luck in PvP!!
OMG! Flawless guide! 10/10
I plan to finally get into ESO some time in this year, let's see how it goes =D
Yay!!!! Have fun bathing in the blood of your enemies!!!!
This will be one of those modes I’ll just jump in and see what happens 😂👍🏻
That’s a super fun method!!
How’d it go? I joined without even knowing about this shit 🤣

You’re welcome!
Thanks for the valuable information Shimmer. The toxic zone awaits. Appreciate your timely and helpful videos!
I turn off chat now lmao. It’s a whole different cesspool in there haha

SkyShards in cyrodiil are no joke haha
Slaughter Fish are the true evil of Tamriel.
Agreed lmao!
Great info ! thank you !
Not sure if I'm ready to visit Cyrodiil yet though... if ever..
You can do it!!!!
@@ShimmerVids I did ! Other than the instant death It was really fun !! Lol
Great video shimmer. very high quality!

Thank yo! A great PvP introduction - thorough and relevant! Thanks for all the slaughter fish!
Love all your ESO Guides!

Thank you for a brilliant guide.
You’re welcome!

You can only have one ram down at a time lol but that would be a great idea haha
Nice job shimmer ur guide helped alot keep it up! 😁👍🏻
Glad to help!
thank you. i've always followed friends in w/a group.. wanted to pay the vendor a visit in the area and couldnt figure how to get in on my own lol !
Great video!
Thanks glad you enjoyed!
I wish they added a passive campaign or option for people that don't want to pvp but need to get shards and what not.
Me too :(
Yeah so, I skipped the tutorial by accident cause I don;'t really listen to what characters say LMAO but I'm glad I came to this video cause I feel like it probably covered more than the tutorial.
Yea it covers way more then the tutorial hahah honestly they need to remake it!
Do Dolmens in Cyrodil always take forever?
Glad you can experience this,i can only lag and dc there so im stuck with battlegrounds😅 everywhere i go is fine,but cyro just doesnt work for me at all
Yea a lot of people have that problem. :(
Nice explanation!
Glad to help!!
Great video thanks very much!
You’re welcome!
cen you tell me about the gear in cyrodiil and where and which to get it ?
I have no Ring idea what's going on in this game and I've been playing it for like a year lol
Capturing an enemy scroll should give the scroll carrier a small amount of crowns
Agreeeeed
Very informative, thanks
You’re welcome!
What outfit is your Khajiit wearing? Can anybody advise?
Can you find other players on the map? To find your alliance zerg?
You can see where they’re fighting by looking for the battle icons on the map, looking at some chat, or joining a raid.
I know I'm comenting on a two yr old post but gotta say, this is good. you should make one for this year after the way they turned cyrodiil back to it's former hardcore self lol
Yea I had stepped away for a bit during covid (I’m in hospital nursing) and it was all too much with being forced to work overtime at the hospital on Covid units and having my toddler. I just came back to it, and this is on my list to update!
What outfit are using?
That was VERY helpful thank you!
You’re welcome! Cyrodiil can be a ton of fun and super overwhelming at the same time. Just take your time and enjoy it! And kill them all dead!
This was a very heplful vid. Thanks a bunch (:
You’re welcome!
How do you earn 5 stars?
Looks like im not getting the speed boost thing tutorial only got me to 3 out of lvl 5 needed.
Thank you so much for this!
You’re welcome!!
Thank you, last time I played they barely added cyrodil, I played it for a bit and only recently started up eso again and had forgotten everything, big help, also I love eso bc it seems like a lot of women play it and that’s rad as hell
Yes they do! Haha! Welcome back!
Sexist pig!
How do I jump into PvP if I deleted the invite?
Hi! I’d say I’m a newer player. I’m on my first account, and I played through quite a lot of quests including the default harborage quest line. I’m in the ebonheart pact, level 37 at the time of this comment.
I’m sort of interested in the pvp and so I find myself watching this video. Seems fun but my main question is do you lose items on death or is it a “safe” pvp mode?
It’s safe pvp. You don’t lose any of your items. Your armor also doesn’t suffer durability loss for pvp deaths so no repairing!!! Yay!!!
Shimmer Ah I see. Awesome! That actually encourages me to try it out even more :) Thanks for all the info and help. I’m loving ESO so far it’s honestly the game I dreamed about all those years ago when I played Morrowind for the first time haha
It’s fun, but don’t be discouraged if you die a lot at first learning how to do it haha! I still die a lot. Welcome to Tamriel!!
Shimmer haha thanks for the encouragement! You’re awesome ❤️❤️
Anytime!! Good luck and more importantly, have fun out there!!
🤔😄🤓🤓🤓🤓💜💜💜💖thank's for explaining what is what for this game guide 💜💖🧡💜ESO
You’re welcome! 🤗
How do I get the alliance skill line?
Going to Cyrodiil
And earning AP (or doing the intro quest) will unlock the skill line.
Shimmer thank you I got it 😊 I’m new to the game
Should have seen it yesterday :-). Great explanation. Thx
Definitly Go now to non CP coz they almost 1 Hit a CP100 noob .
Yea it’s rough if you don’t have cp! 👀
So no tickets for this event for the mount correct?
Yes. 2 tickets with every first daily turn in. Sorry didn’t finish my Midyear Mayhem guide before the event.
Shimmer No problem, which quest is it?
how to find cyrodil? seems whenever iam trying aprouch it, it is covered by mountains that are imposible to climb
You have to enter it by entering a campaign. If you watch the video it explains how to do that.
great video
Thanks! Good luck in Cyrodiil!
There’s one detail mentioned that is the most important but I missed it. Don’t go at it alone, follow the crown. crown???
are there specific schedules for alliance war?
30 day or 7 day campaigns. You can check how many days are left in the campaign via the alliance war menu.
Why am I only fighting cpu guards of other factions? Where are the pvp? 🤷🏻♂️ lvl 27 still have no idea what I’m doing.
I just want to go and gather some lore books but I keep dying 😩
th-cam.com/video/ZBJDjDzAZzU/w-d-xo.html
Sweet! thanks :D
No problem 🤜
Is It me or the ps4 campaigns are always empties ?
If I get the any race any alliance bundle can I play on the side of any alliance
... no. The alliance you chose for your character is locked to that character forever, unless you buy a alliance chance token from the crown store. Any race any alliance just allows you to make a character and choose whatever race you want and whatever alliance you want. If you don’t have any race any alliance only certain races can be certain alliances. You’re locked to choosing from those.
@@ShimmerVids ok thanks just wanted to be sure
There's an intro quest??? Bruh I've been sitting on that skill line, struggling to level it up and get the movespeed ability xD
Thank you
Why isn't this included in the game?
You hop into the game and at level 1 it's like: "Hey, here's tons of stuff to do! And no instructions! #YOLO"
It sort of is....there’s a minor written guide hidden in the help section
so? discovery is part of the fun :)
I recently did the Cyrodiil delve achievements, and learned that the annoying respawn thinger with delve bosses is no longer a thing. All bosses are now on a normal respawn schedule. Hooray!
Hooray!!!!!!!!! I did it once on my main. Never again lmao!
I have been to Cyrodil in the past ,,, an unortunately i died of boredom !
they should think about making a passive pvp campaign. Not everyone wants to pvp some just want to get the skyshards and do the quests
Totally agree.
You want to discard the pvp in the map so you could go to an npc to tell you instructi9ns on how to play the game?
@@pipebomber04 No, I want to go to Cyrodiil and do quests and not have to worry about other players trying to kill me while I'm just trying to explore
@@legatoe you should worry about the other players and overcome that challenge rather than killinh innocent NPCs whos done nothing wrong tto you.
@@pipebomber04 they've done nothing wrong to me but I'm trying to right the wrongs they did to the other NPCs
Need to be updated rapid maneuver does not speedup mounts anymore.
yep!
what??? really?! I've been away from the game for a while and am starting back up. ugggh. I loved using this on my mounts.
big sad.
@@jacquib4048 you get it constantly now as long as you have the passive purchased. It’s actually better now because it doesn’t take up a bar slot, and you don’t have to keep constantly firing it off!
@@jacquib4048 its in the assault passive as continuous attack. There are a skill in one of the skill trees after level 50 that also boost mount speed.

Join a campaign and leave you will still get points as long as it keeps running
What in the name of Vaermina, this is so complex 0.0 I just want to discover the locations and explore, makes me wish they'd make a separate Cyrodil instance for PvE'rs that's a completely different instance than PvP. It's literally the only map on my game that I've never touched but I'm just a simple solo player
Yea it’s a little overly complicated lol
I love you Shimmer
Is there any way to change from red team to blue team
I wish!!! Re roll your character to DC. That’s the only way. ZOS has stated they aren’t going to be doing faction changes. So you would have to make a new character in the faction you want (the team you wish to be on).
Race tokens only change your race, not your alliance. Nothing can change your alliance except deleting the character and remaking it.
I hate pvp, but I need caltrop and vigor for my build.
Eso has the most confusing pvp out of every mmo I’ve ever played
Agreed
Nah its pretty easy
Hitman Latvija Plays He said confusing not hard
I keep trying to play it but the world's are just dead and I'm the only player on the map...
Uh are you playing a dead campaign? There are literally hundreds In Cyrodiil on pc. I’m looking at the campaigns.
It all depends on the time you’re playing. There are peak times like any online MP game. You do get the odd “dead” campaign servers but there’s always ones that are absolutely packed 20 out of 24 hours per day.
There's no way of leaving it though you need 100,000 gold or alliance points that I don't have
ready begin up down up down ... LOL
Thanks nice vid.
You know your game did a bad job explaining it if you need to watch a video on how to play it
They’re pretty bad at explaining stuff lmao
11:05 And just like that I already dislike Cyrodill
If youre not level 50 with max champion points dont go
This is old :D Thanks
It’s Still relevant. You’re welcome.
How in gods name do you leave this place !!?!?
Hell they put cyrodiil in Elder Scrolls Online why not make Oblivion remastered or Oblivion VR
Wanna play sometime? @Gica ig
I never played PVP but i'm reluctant.
Why ?
There are no end in sight. it appears.
I love the closure feeling of ending a chapter or a quest in PVE.
thats a lot of info... its hard to be new in eso
So much info :( welcome to eso though!!

I had to look her up lol

Don't play Cyro until u have 500-600 CP or u get in now times destroyed
Beware if you are a new player trying this game, Cyrodiill is laged and full of exploiters, just keep away of this zone
