About the game
More answer the adventuring call as there are unfinished quests and unfulfilled destinies in the provinces of Tamriel. It will take all of your skill and tenacity to overcome Deslandra and other looming threats in the Second Era. Discover the strengths of dual wielding and storm calling. Learn the techniques of warriors and witchhunters. And lean on the natural abilities of the many races who travel the continent. Witchhunters are doggedly focused on certain types of enemies. This magic and range-focused class gains bonuses when engaging with those unique targets, and don’t forget to use potions with abandon. Warriors are the jack-of-all-trades that will carry you through countless battles. They possess a lot of powerful abilities, and it's encouraged to switch between battle forms to gain an advantage! The second light weapon battle form skill, Dual Wield rewards fast, reckless damage-dealing. With the proper skills trained, adventurers can even attack with multiple weapons in a single engage. Storm Calling, on the other hand, magically improves your stamina-based damage through control of the weather. It’s another skill line that encourages mixed battle forms! Become a hero of Tamriel and wage an epic campaign against the growing darkness!
