How to Utilize Two Skill Bars in ESO

Ойындар

To truly maximize your character's power in The Elder Scrolls Online, you will need to properly learn how to weapon swap and use both of your skill bars. With so many new players coming to the game, i see a lot of people being confused by this concept, so today's ESO guide will cover my thought process on how i set up my characters skill bars to utilize weapon swap in a way that makes sense to me.

    I guess this doesn't even mean to be a problem for new, but even for experienced players.. Questions like : what happens to buffs, passivs or toggled skills etc. Can be tried but are never really explained by the game. Or some are even hard to try and be found out that well.. And for minmaxing some of those things are so crucial.. Therefore thanks for this guide, I don't know why there are so few helps on this topping, that is like a key mechanic

    Most important thing you missed. When and if set weapon bonuses apply from bar 2 to bar 1 and opposite. Armor and jewlery bonuses are active on both bars but swaping bars with weapon lose you that 5 pieces bonus Weapon+Jewlery for example, or not? Or does Maelstrom Staff Bonus on back bar for aditional damage on enemies in Wall of Elements stay after we switch bar to front bar and dps them. That is most confusing part of it.

    I was struggling a lot with two bars, like for a really long time, but then I saw that in guides most of the time there are "buff/debuff" bar and "attack" bar and it was like a revelation to me. I am following this rule and have almost no problem with bar switching. Though when soloing I like to have damage shield on my "attack" bar, so I can toggle it any time without switching bars. Anyway, awesome video man I wish I had that kind of video when I was started

    Consider your key bind for the actual bar swap as well. If you’re used to MMO or ARPG games, pick a standard modifier like shift, alt or cntrl. The bars don’t have to feel like two distinct things but enhancements of each other. Simple example can be a light heal as 3 and bigger heal as shift 3. Keep up the awesome content!

    Here's some other options besides Offense, and Defense: Ranged/Melee (Bow/2H) AoE/Single Target (Lightning/Inferno Staff) A Frost Staff can be used Defensively, but differently from 1H/Shield. You block with Magicka, which changes your Sustain. (I like to Alternate between Stamina, and Magicka, so while one is being burned, the other is recovering.) A major advantage to a Shield is it's 8 Armor pieces, so 8 Traits, and 8 Armor Enchantments.

    Thanks for the video on a subject that not many newbies think about, though it was a bit DPS-heavy in content there, Dottz! I main a tank and want to pass a little knowledge on to starter tanks. I think of the front (S&B) bar as my face-the-boss bar, with short-range taunt (Pierce) buff/debuff (Heroic slash), main shield, main heal and a flex slot. I’m on this bar as a solid barrier, blocking the boss, and preventing it from hitting the group. The back bar for me is all about range and area/mob debuffs and crowd control, and has a ranged taunt, area debuff, chain, immobiliser and a flex slot. I use this bar to lay out an area of damage, pull mobs into it, and hold them there so they soak up the damage and stay put for the DDs to damage them as effectively as possible. Beginner tanks might be best with an ice staff on the back, but I prefer a lightning staff, and I’ve also trifled with with a bow. Until recently, I thought that two bars for a tank would be obvious, but I came across a CP600-something only using one bar, and helped him out with a little tutorial.

    Looks like this is what I was guessing when putting together 2 bars for a Necro Tank. Just how necessary is Warhorn as an Ultimate, I despise PVP so the odds of me ever getting this are limited to what ever daily rewards I receive that progresses my PVP traits; I'm kind of hoping I can get away with a Necro tank that uses Bone Colossus on the S/B Bar, with that Mass Resurrection Ult on my Staff Bar as an Oh S%$# button instead.

    Bryan Turner You are expected to have it as an option as a tank, but there are situations where I use more selfish ultimates such as the S+B ult and barrier. I don’t pvp either, but it’s important to put up with either dying a lot in BGs or joining a Zerg and mending walls and such until you get levelled up enough for your assault and support lines.

    Here's my problem, I'm interested in tanking and in games like WoW you have priority based rotations, in ESO builds it seems like the build crafters just dump a list of abilities on you saying these are important with no context as to whether one has more priority than another, do you set up your tank bars with a Single Target/AOE concept in mind, or are you supposed to put Buffs/Debuffs on one bar with random useful skills on the 2nd Bar? Fumbling my way through Open World on a Necro Tank build it seems as though all of the AOE abilities make sense on the Staff bar, while the single target abilities make sense on the 1H/Shield Bar.

    I have more than 700 hours of gameplay and I have always used one bar, it is sad that the two bars could always be visible and usable instead of always switching, before playing TESO I played SWTOR and there the skill bar system is much better and there are many more skills that you can combine attacks, when I first played TESO I found it very basic, the two bars not being visible and usable at the same time is very annoying, I will have to adapt once again, it will not be easy . I liked the video, the part at the beginning that explains how to use the two bars, put the buffs in one bar and use the other for attacks, I really liked that idea, and I'm going to do it this way, thank you.

    I was hoping you would explain the actual bars because I often wonder If 'front' bar has priority over 'back' bar or are there other (unknown by me) reasons for always using the front bar for most of your fight skills? Ive heard some folks saying never stay on the back bar, nor fight from the back bar or never put the same weapons on both bars and stuff like that which makes me think the bars are not equal in some way (skills aside). OR is it only due to the actual skills you put on the bar and the bars are equal until the skills are put upon them????

    It would be hard to explain that because there's almost an infinite number of build possibilities, so it'd be impossible to cover that in a video like this. That's why I gave examples and explained my personal thought process. And the bars are equal, you could make your back bar your offensive bar and your front your defensive bar if you want. It makes no difference

    Don't worry too much about leveling them up perfectly equally. You'll end up using one to get most your kills,so it's not a bad idea to just turn missions in with the other. You can also place skills on your bar,even if you can't use them with the weapon that is equipped to that bar. Example,you can put the bow skill snipe on your two hander bar,you wont be able to use it,but XP will still be given to that skill & skill line. Not ideal,but if you find you're just not killing enemies very often with your bow,but you really really want to use barrage,it can be a way to get there without having to alter your play style or repetitively grind XP from some boring overland mob farm.

    OMG a follow guild wars 2 players *high five* I hope your liking ESO. I main gw2 and play eso on the 2nd as both games have something the other doesn't. gw2 spoiled me with auto-loot though! anyways if your on NA or want to join dottz discord I can answer questions between each game. hero points vs skyshards stuff like that. dottz has a guide on warden and on just how to level but ya you don't need 2 restoration staff and as long as both weapons are magical based (inferno lighting or restoration staff your skills will gain the benefit of the weapon. restoration staff heavy attack gains more resources so it doesn't really matter which is front or back just that they are diff. you 100% want a destruction staff as your second weapon so you can get an elemental drain and that takes a while to unlock. if your solo fire does more damage and lighting has a chance of causing concussion which is like vulnerable and helps the whole group. so that is a choice that is always debatable. Lighting is usually preferred though. read the passives it takes a while to learn. thanks for your comment sweetie!

    Class skill loaded bars are a staple of many sorc builds. Mage guild is insanely tedious to level up,but also provides some nice passive perks. There's no wrong way to play,but that said,some builds are way more viable then others. At the moment,mag sorcs are very viable. Especially as Damage dealers or tanks. Mag Sorcs have the highest burst in the game right now,which is reversed from most classes,where stam has the damage advantage. Mag sorcs also have a ton of utility class skills to choose from. About the only thing they lack are debuffs.

    hi just got to read your question. the information your looking for is found on the website. as a tank read the passives for heavy as those are more important that doing critical damage. the bar for tank is more specialized then this very general guide on why you want to use two weapons. for sword and shield it is more about taunt and living and once you unlock inner fire and chains or some kind of pull skill if your not a dragon knight on your back bar so you can prebuff before going in. but ya check out the website. hope that helps and we SO NEED more tanks in the game.

    I don't remember the default keybind tbh, I think it's tilde? But if you go into your keybinds you can see "weapon swap", and you can bind it to whatever you want. Make sure you have 2 weapons equipped In your char sheet to actually use both bars

    Try putting two cheap harmless but different skills on the same button on both bars. Even if you're a veteran of the game,sometimes barswaps will fail to happen due to lag,or even funner,you'll swap bars,but it won't render correctly & your character will still be(visually) holding your other bars weapons,even though all your skills have allready swapped. You can also change the options to constantly show your skill bars. Or just become a werewolf. Werewolves only have one bar lol

    As a console player (PS4), the weapon switch (Left D-Pad), it’s kinda a hassle to do. I played Final Fantasy 14 Online, the Backbar/Weapon Switch they have is you hold the L2 button and it switches, release it and your back at your front bar. I like that setting as I don’t need to let go of the left analog stick.

    I know this is an old video but I'm hoping you can still answer this for me. When you mention putting the DoT abilities in descending duration then renewing them in the same order, that doesn't make sense to me. Let's say you have a 15s ability, 12s, and 10s. If you cast them in order of highest to lowest, then your 10s one will run out before the 15s does. So you will drop uptime for the 10s one if you wait to reapply each one until the first one runs out. Can you explain why it's not better to cast them in ascending order?

  • @dottzgaming

    @dottzgaming

    2 жыл бұрын

    So, hypothetically: Descending order using your 15, 12 and 10 example. Remember there is a 1 sec gcd in eso. When the 10s one needs to be refreshed, the 15 will have 3s left, and the 12 will have 1. If you do it in ascending order, when the 10s one needs to be refreshed, the 12 will have 3s left and the 15 will have 7s left. Technically speaking the most optimal way to maintain dots is through a dynamic rotation where you refresh as needed, but I wanted to discuss the static to help people new to bar swapping!

What really bothers me in ESO though is, that I need a secondary weapon for that switch (why?) and also I need to put my Summons in both bars, or my Clannfear and Matriarch get unsummoned every time I switch. I don't get why ESO doesn't just allow me to switch through skill bars without that chicane...

    Dont know if this is still live and anyone will see it but....on console how the hell do you swap to second bar? Because to get to the second bar you have to swap weapon....? So how would that be helpful to level up skills if your main weapon has skills assigned to it...and then you go to the second bar and put the same skills to "double up" levelling....but that's on the other weapon...which means that other weapon won't have any of it's own skills attached will it? It's very confusing.. The video shows him using a screen which isn't on console....clicking "2" for the bars...not on console...so how do you do it on PS4/5?

So 1 bar setups can work for 90 percent of the content. So many of us use 1 bar because it makes the tedious combat a little better.
