Turning to the dark side

Since Mouser acquired sanies lupinus the all-natural way, it only seemed proper to do the same when I decided to take him down the blood-sucking path instead. So he got cured of his lycanthropy just in time for the new moon* and went roaming the dark dark countryside of The Rift. With a bit of luck (and some […]

Forward from 2E 582 to 3E 405, and back from 2015 to 1996

Yes, we are playing The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall 😀 Some fun things already, just from race selection in character creation— First off, everyone is very tall… Nice to see the origins of Argonians being fast swimmers as a racial trait. I always thought that was a nice touch in ESO, no matter what the […]

NB#3 Fafhrdsdóttir the Berserker

Alright, alright, I’m addicted to Nightblades. I have a problem, I know, but I’m just having so damn much fun trying out variations on this class, I can’t stop myself. So…a few weeks ago I decided to roll a new, third NB based on this Battlemaster’s Corner post, “The Berserker.” Seemed like a great counterpart […]

Werewolf au naturel

Alright, this was awesome: there we are, trotting through The Rift, when we’re like, “Hey, is that a pair of werewolves?” Yes, friends, it was a double full moon over Tamriel and that meant the NPC werewolf packs were out in force, ready to scratch us with their Sanies Lupines-infected claws! Now this was exciting […]

The sisters l’Egerdemain / the skills Legerdemain

This revelation from ZeniMax about the Justice system in update 6 made us chuckle: You see? Great minds think alike 😀 …Especially great criminal minds like the sisters! They cannot wait to get their nimble little wood elf hands on that skill line. Update 6 drops on the PST tomorrow and we are psyched.

She’s the fair one, but I’m taller.

Call me Xena. Xena l’Egerdemain. That’s my sister Gabrielle. I’m the dark one, she’s the fair one. But I’m taller. Not that that means much, being Bosmer—”wood elves” in the tongues of Man—as a people we’re not exactly known for our verticality. But that doesn’t mean we won’t slit you from gut to gorge if […]

The sisters l’Egerdemain

Meet Xena and Gabrielle l’Egerdemain: Wood Elf Nightblades both. My lovely wife is playing Gabrielle as a straight up Nightblade, single-target DPS with sneaking and critical attacks, and ranged options from her bow (taking advantage of the Bosmer racial abilities there.) Primary weapon bar is her Bow, secondary TBD but probably dual wielding daggers. 5 […]

My first Nightblade: The Grayest Mouser

Since Mouser is my first go at rolling a Nightblade since beta, I’ve decided I should get to know the ESO version of the class better by just playing it real traditional-like: stealth-based assassin/sniper-type, maxing out the critical hit chance and damage as much as possible to create a fierce single-target DPS. (If you look […]
