Using skills in Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle

Players playing the new expansion might want to grow stronger before taking on its greatest challenges. The new dungeons could be a tough wall for returning players to climb over, and additional skill points could certainly even things out.

Since the new expansion centers on the Bretons, Bethesda encourages players to increase their skill in knightly pursuits. Players can dump their new points into one-handed weapons and shields or increase armor to make this work.

Furthermore, Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle allows players to pursue fun new quests. The expansion should keep longtime players engaged and bring others back into the game's vibrant and interesting world.
