One positive about the way addons work in Elder Scrolls Online is that you can fiddle with them while the game is loaded safely and then get your new changes by hitting the /reloadui command afterwards. If your preference is to manually install addons then you are going to need to navigate to your documents folder, wherever that is stored on your system and within it there should be a folder structure that looks like this: “Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns”.

When it comes to downloading addons, my personal preference is to click the “Find More” tab at the top of the Minion client and then search for the addons I am looking for that way. The positive however is that the Elder Scrolls user interface does not update nearly as often nor does it have quite the penchant for breaking addons as the World of Warcraft one does. The addons themselves are not updated nearly as often and as a result you end up using them in an outdated status way more often. Addons with ESO are way more the wild west than they are in games like World of Warcraft. This is pretty much the last remaining viable addon patcher with any real support for The Elder Scrolls Online and it is going to be your best friend for resolving any potential issues you might find along the way. Probably the first step if you choose to go down this path is to install Minion which is the addon client of MMOUI/ESOUI. However before we go down this road there are a few primers that you need to understand about Elder Scrolls Online addons.

So this morning I thought I would take a few minutes to talk about a few of the ones that I find most important for my personal enjoyment. However all of this screenshot posting has lead to the inevitable question of “What mods are you running?”. The game is in a great state and honestly has been for years, and now that I have a pretty regularly group of friends playing it has improved my enjoyment immensely.

Hey Friends! Over the last few days I have been posting an awful lot about Elder Scrolls Online.
