Been a fan of The Elder Scrolls since 2006. I'm thrilled to be able to help edit UESP, by far the most useful gaming reference site I've ever seen.

TES Games I've Played, by Time PeriodEdit

  • TES: Online (2E 582) - Played briefly on XBOne and now daily on PC. ESO+ subscriber.
  • TES II: Daggerfall (3E 405) - Played briefly on GOG using Unity; looking forward to trying Skygerfall.
  • TES III: Morrowind (3E 427) - Played briefly on XBox360 and briefly on PC using YAJAN via Wabbajack; looking forward to trying Skywind.
  • TES IV: Obivion (3E 433) - Played for years on XBox360 and now on XBOne; looking forward to trying Skyblivion.
  • TES: Blades (4E 180) - Played briefly on mobile.
  • TES V: Skyrim (4E 201) - Played for years on XBox360 and now on XBOne.
  • Never played TES I: Arena, TES: Battlespire, TES: Legends, TES: Redguard, or the TES: Travels series (Stormhold, Dawnstar, Shadowkey, Oblivion mobile).

OPEN "TO DO" LISTEdit

  • On the map: Differentiate display level standards of Ayleid wells in Zones (Blackwood, specifically; perhaps others), where they are Marked, vs. Cyrodiil, where they are Unmarked (Fixed).

UESP GUILDEdit

EDITING THE MAPEdit

'(map)' where "imperialsewershub" is the "World Name" of the map

  • Searching for a brand-new map added by recent DLC? At the search bar at top left of any map, type: name:u37 (where 37 represents which update added the new map)
  • List of all maps: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Maps
  • List of all places: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Places
  • Use <SHIFT> + <LEFT CLICK> when editing map locations to open the edit box for something that links to another map.
  • If a place link isn't working
{ { Place Link|Blackreach: Greymoor Caverns Treasure Map I|mapworld=blackreach } },
break the link by inserting maplink=nothing and adding map link
{ { Place Link|Blackreach: Greymoor Caverns Treasure Map I|maplink=}}{{Map Link|29135 } }

TransportEdit

A few of the dungeons where I've added Elite enemies at display level 11Edit

A few of the locations I've worked on with high density of map pins in a small areaEdit

Old coding for quest map links, prior to visual guideEdit

Quest Markers
Quest givers and quest objectives should have no visible label. Here are samples of the key map link editing items for a quest giver and a quest objective:
QUEST GIVER:

Icon Type: Quest Start [or Quest Start Main for "Zone" quests]
Name: Aamela Rethandus [the name of the NPC/item giving the quest]
Wiki toggle: On [only toggle it off and enter a unique wiki if it doesn't match the Name block]
Label Direction: None
Description: <i>Supply Run</i> <br> (upstairs) [name of quest in italics, with line break to display helpful info]
Display Level: [see display level standards above]

QUEST OBJECTIVE:

Icon Type: Quest or Quest Small [or Quest Main / Quest Small Main for "Zone" quests]
Name: Rescue the Woman [the quest objective step]
Wiki toggle: Off: Orara Arthalen [when quest objective is a named NPC/item, enter their wiki page; otherwise, leave blank]
Label Direction: None
Description: <i>Rescue and Revenge</i> [name of quest in italics]
Display Level: [see display level standards above]


PLAYING ESO 101

When you first start outEdit

  • Change some Settings:
  • Gameplay > GENERAL
  • Limit Followers in Towns ON
  • Companion Reactions MINMAL
  • Gameplay > ITEMS
  • Consolidate Area Loot ON (unless you're using the UESP addon, in which case leave it off)
  • Auto Loot ON (unless you're not using ESO Plus with crafting bag, in which case leave it off)
  • Auto-Add to Craft Bag ON
  • Interface > HEADS-UP DISPLAY
  • Automatic Quest Tracking ON
  • Compass Companions OFF
  • Nameplates > INDICATORS
  • Followers OFF
  • Social > CHAT SETTINGS
  • Profanity Filter OFF (because it often inadvertently blocks mundane conversation)
  • Get every free player home in the game; they're great for free fast travel.
  • If you have the DLC for Blackwood, High Isle, or Telvanni Peninsula, immediately go get at least 1 of the 6 available Companions
  • Buying one of each assistant type (banker, merchant, deconstruction) are gamechangers. Truly excellent for extended gameplay.

Benefits to joining a guildEdit

  • When starting a new character, ask a guildmate to craft some basic starter armor for you.
  • When starting a new character, use the guild roster in-game to "travel to player" for every player online; this will open up many new wayshrines.
  • RBW Batgirl's primary residence contains every crafting station in the game, and she's happy to let anyone use it. You can tell non-RBW friends to enter the following in the in-game chat:
/script JumpToSpecificHouse("@Batgirl32",71)

The fastest, simplest way to...Edit

  • ...get to an Outlaws Refuge unmolested (like when you have a bounty and want to get there to sell stolen items) is to use the Sentinel wayshrine; the refuge is close, there are no guards, and the distance to travel once inside the refuge is short. Alternatively, if you have the Dark Brotherhood DLC, once you've unlocked the Shadowy Supplier skill, you can visit Remains-Silent inside Outlaws Refuges to receive items to help make you "less noticeable," including an Unmarked Sack containing a Monk's Disguise (see item).
  • ...drop down from great height without dying is to use angled surfaces to bounce off them and avoid striking horizontal surfaces.
  • ...get back to an Undaunted Enclave is to teleport to Snugpod in Elden Root.
  • ...level up with XP: either Dolmen runs or Blackrose Prison Arena.
  • ...deliver a master writ to Rolis Hlaalu, regardless of Alliance, is to port outside of player home Snugpod.

CraftingEdit

  • Do not bother playing a crafter and collecting crafting materials ("mats") unless you're paying for ESO Plus, which comes with unlimited mats storage; you will simply not have room in your inventory to loot everything and you'll get frustrated.
  • The best place to do daily crafting quests is Vivec City on Vvardenfell, just south of the wayshrine. There are no doors to go through (no loading screen time) and everything (including crafting daily postings and a bank with two outdoor counters) is close together. A close second is Leyawiin, with the bank being the only problem since it's indoors.

Scripts and Templates to RememberEdit

  • To timestamp your comments, use four tilde ("~") symbols in a row.
  • { {NewLeft} } (or try { {NewLine} }) to add extra space to the bottom of a section, before the start of the next section (helpful for pushing text down to allow enough room for an image).
  • { {Map Link|12345|here} }
  • { {Book Link|Name of Book Here} }
  • To make a subordinate, indented, bulleted line, use two asterisks on the next line. To make it without a bullet, use two colons instead.
  • Making a breakout by alliance: { { ESO Alliances|Dominion=Buraniim|Covenant=Dourstone Vault|Pact=Stonefang Cavern } }
  • Or this: { { ESO Alliances|Dominion=Buraniim|Covenant=Dourstone Vault and Wayrest Fighters Guild Map Link Error|Pact=Stonefang Cavern } }
  • This lore link 1 or this lore link 2 leads to the main UESP lore article, while this ESO link leads to the ESO article.
  • To insert a link to a quest item, use { {Item Link|Tarnished Ring of Mara|questid=7580} }
  • To link directly to a line item on a page, where the line item has an apostrophe in it, use ".27" to replace the apostrophe in the web shortcut: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Blackwood_Quest_Items#Mathen.27s_Golden_Helm
  • To point users to alternate pages with similar names, use { {About|the sailor|the fisher|Gulfreida} } at the top of the page.

How to Make Text Appear in ColumnsEdit

Following what you've read on Author's Assistant Wanted!, find Yisara and talk to her about the work, or speak to her directly.

Started quest from Author's Assistant Wanted!:
Otherwise:
"Are you from around here? Sorry, I'm not familiar with Gideon and … wait! Are you here because of my fliers? Thank Ruptga!
Call me Yisara. I'm here on a thrilling, inspirational journey! And I could really use a sturdy companion."
What sort of assistance do you need?
"I'm an author. Aspiring, really. I've penned a few romance novels, but they all lack … what's the word? Authenticity! Yes! So, I resolved to get out into the world and find my muse.
Now, here's the exciting part: I found it in Castle Giovesse!"
You found your romantic muse in a crumbling castle?
"Yes! Well, not exactly. A tragic affair played out there years ago and lovestruck spirits still haunt the castle.
I acquired a magic lantern that allows me to speak to the ghosts. But, you know … ghosts. I need you to ward off the angrier spirits!"
I'll help you with your investigation.
"Hi! Are you from around here? Sorry, I'm just … you know. I'm flustered! Gideon's positively labyrinthine!
Call me Yisara. What brings me here, you ask? I'm here on a thrilling, inspirational journey! And I could really use a well-sculpted friend."
What's this journey all about, exactly?
"I'm an author. I've penned a few romance novels, but they all lack…what's the word? Authenticity! Yes! So, I resolved to get out into the world and find my muse.
Here's the exciting part: I found it in the crumbling ruins of Castle Giovesse!"
You found your romantic muse in a crumbled castle?
"They say a tragic affair played out there long ago and lovestruck spirits still haunt the castle.
I acquired a magic lantern that allows me to speak with ghosts. I just need someone to help fight off dangerous spirits. The job pays well, I promise!"
All right. I'll help you explore the castle.
"Thank you for agreeing to accompany me. With your help, my next romance novel will be a masterpiece!
Here, take the lantern. Now, fair warning—I've never actually used it. But I heard a ghostly woman wanders the city gardens. We can test it there!"

Go to the city gardens. They are in the southeast corner of the town. Yisara will then catch up to you and then point at a spot in the garden.

Yisara: "Perhaps there, near that overturned slab?"
