REACHING WROTHGAR
For those of you joining us on the ESOTU PTS, you can get to the city of Orsinium and zone of Wrothgar in a few simple steps.
USING AN ORSINIUM TEMPLATE CHARACTER
If you plan to use a pre-made template character on the PTS, you’ll want to choose the Orsinium-specific ones.
1. While on the character creation screen, click on the drop-down in the upper-left corner of your screen.
2. Select one of the six Orsinium character templates—there are two for each alliance: one that is VR14, and one that is level 35.
3. When you enter the game, you will be in the Daggerfall, Davon’s Watch, or Vulkhel Guard, depending on your alliance. You will be approached by an Orc messenger who will deliver a letter to you from Forge-Mother Alga.
4. Finish speaking to the Orc messenger to begin the “Invitation to Orsinium” quest.
5. Seek out Ambassador Lazgara in Daggerfall, Davon’s Watch, or Vulkhel Guard. Talk to her to progress the Wrothgar questline and travel to the Merchant’s Gate in Wrothgar.
USING A NON-TEMPLATE OR COPIED CHARACTER
1. First, create a character on the ESOTU PTS and purchase the Orsinium DLC game pack from the Crown Store. (Both template characters and those copied over from the live megaservers will have enough crowns to buy the DLC game pack.)
2. After you purchase the Orsinium DLC game pack, travel to Daggerfall, Davon’s Watch, or Vulkhel Guard, depending on your alliance. You will be approached by an Orc messenger who will deliver a letter to you from Forge-Mother Alga.
3. Finish speaking to the Orc messenger to begin the “Invitation to Orsinium” quest.
