Does it make sense to buy expansions?

Question

Hello all,

title pretty much. I am thinking about returning to ESO mainly because the new expan sounds pretty good and ill want to get the hang of the game again before it Releases. If i understood it correctly i can either buy the expansions that i missed (all of them) or just get eso+ ? Eso+ seems to be the obvious answer here, hence the question...am i overlooking something? With an active eso+ i will also be able to Play Elsweyr without buying it?

ESO+ doesn't include the Elsweyr expansion because it's a chapter, hope this helps :)

Oh, seems like i misunderstood eso+ then. So eso+ only contains morrowind at the moment? So i would have to buy summerset+elswyr to have full Access to the game?

Although that will probably change to add Summerset to ESO+ when Elsweyr comes out.

that would be really good to know.

Thanks for the reply

In the same vain, you'll probably have to buy Jewelry Crafting seperately once Summerset gets added to ESO+.

Thanks for the detailed reply, that helps a lot. Especially the part about the warden class because that doesnt seem to be intuitive at all. Since elsweyr includes the necro i guess ill follow your advice and preorder elsweyr in case ESO catches me again :)

Last time the note that Vvardenfel was added to the DLC list was part of the patch notes of Summerset release. It was not mentioned in the pts patch notes. So will need to wait till launch to be sure either way

It surely does! As mentioned earlier i thought eso+ contains every Content but it seems like that is wrong. I guess ill just Play for free for a bit...still have a lvl50 sorc and 49 whateverblade and trying to figure out whats a good starting Point would be to get into the game again.

So I'm in a similar boat, I believe, with + you get points to spend which can go to it. However, only so many points are given with the + each month. I personally went and bought the expansion summerset yesterday actually. I don't know if I'm right or not, just what I understood it to be? Hope it helps some.

Yea it seems like i misunderstood eso+, i thought everything would be included :/ So buying summerset surely wasnt a mistake on your part. Another user said that summerset might be included once elswyr Releases, but that is not sure yet.

That's what I thought. I typically buy the expansion and if I have extra I'll get + for a month and then cancel lol.

Sounds like a good plan. I'll just Play for free for a bit (Path of Exile end of the week anyway, hehe) and if it catches me again i still can buy everything i am missing. Thanks for the help!

Just pre purchase the Elsweyr digital CE and you'll get Morrowind+Summerset with all of their CE items included. Then do ESO+ and you'll have access to all DLC. Overall you're looking at just over $100 to get everything(depending on taxes) and then $15 a month to maintain ESO+.

With ESO+ you get access to all dlc zones and dlc dungeons. I don't play without the crafting bag active so, I don't buy any dlc content.

Elsweyr is a chapter as Summerset (at least, atm Summerset is a chapter), ESO+ doesn't grant access to chapters.
