Everything You Need to Know About Leveling in ESO

Hey folks, gamers being gamers, there are dozens of ESO leveling guides and whatnot popping up on the net, promising to tell you everything you need to know to get to level 50 in two weeks or something like that. You don't need all that. All you need to know about leveling in ESO is right here. Enjoy and game on!

1) ESO leveling is like leveling in most MMOs, you gather xp by completing questing, killing enemies, and exploring. If all you want to do is get to level 50 as quickly as possible, just focus on questing. You can find details of which quests are the most 'valuable' in ESO leveling guides and online wikias, but the main thing is to just focus on questing--it will get you more xp faster than any other part of ESO.

2) When you level you will get one stat point to put in Health, Stamina or Magicka. Health is how much damage you can take before you die, Stamina powers your physical abilities (including Block, Dodge, and Interrupt), Magicka powers your magical abilities. Distribute your stat points according to your preferred playstyle. Make sure if you have a lot of Magicka powered skills you are putting more of your stat points into Magicka, and if you have a lot of Stamina powers skills more of your stat points are going into Stamina. Remember--unless you want to play a 'squishy' caster, Health is not a dump stat.

3) Do not waste time farming gold for a mount. Yes, needing to walk everywhere is annoying and takes a while. You will spend more time farming gold than you will save being able to ride to your quests. You'll get plenty of gold from your quests and can get a mount later. You can't get back the time you waste farming gold.

4) If you want to be able to do all the neat stuff available to level 50 characters, than you cannot just power your way through to level 50 as fast as possible. The devs for ESO wanted to encourage exploration and wider engagement, so they specifically designed the game to include important stuff you will not find if you just farm quests to enough xp to hit 50. In fact, you may not even be able to hit level 50 without some of this stuff.

Skyshards--Collecting Skyshards gives your character extra skill points. This is not something to be lightly ignored. ESO expects you to get a good amount of your skill points from Skyshards (and the rarer books), and skipping this part of the game will leave you without the skills that you need to fight effectively at high levels.

Crafting materials--Crafting is a bigger part of ESO than most games. Basically, there is a lot of powerful gear that you can't get as loot on quests and raids. You can either craft it yourself, craft something just as awesome and trade for it, or waste time farming gold in hopes that you will be able to buy it. Do spend hours tracking down crafting materials in the wilderness (if nothing else there are some strict carry limits in ESO), but if you see crafting materials as you travel to and from quests, pick them up. If you pass a crafting location, stop and craft some items. Yeah, this will slow you down a bit, but (again) not as much as farming massive amounts of gold will.

Hidden Crafting locations--In addition to the benefits of general crafting, there are several locations hidden throughout Tamriel that give special crafting bonuses. These bonuses give equipment abilities not found anywhere else. So if you want to take advantage of these special abilities, you'll need to either pay someone else to go to one of these locations, or go there and craft for yourself.

Hidden quest lines and dungeons--And of course, the devs hid some very nice quest lines and dungeons, with very useful loot and high xp rewards, back in the hills where you won't find them unless you step away from the obvious quest lines and go looking.
