Some common solutions to everyday ESO issues

Granted, some of these are temporary fixes until the game gets patched, updated, etc.  Some are FAQs that I see people asking all the time in Zone.

1. Gold Spammers!
Go to esoui.com and download one of the spam filters.  Install the add-on.

2. Ignore list is too full!
Again, there is an add-on for that to reset ignore list to ignore the new spammers.  Its called ResetIgnore.

3. Help, I can't see my group member!  I see his arrow though.
You are in a different instance on the mega-server.  Open up your party panel by pressing P.  Right click on your group member and choose to travel to player/member.

4. How do I reset my skills?
You need to travel to the capital city and make an offering at one of the shrines.  Bring a lot of gold!  For Ebonheart Pact, that place is at Mournhold in the Deshaan map.  Easy way to get there, check on your guild list and find a player at Mournhold, right click on them and choose travel to player.

5. My FPS was fine, all of a sudden it dropped to a crawl!  I have super quad SLI, overclocked, blah blah blah.
Press Escape.  Go to settings.  Video.  Choose Graphics Quality and set it to Minimum.  Looks like crap right?  Go back in and set it to what you had before (Ultra High).  Done.

6. I'm stuck in the floor.  Ground.  Falling from the sky, endlessly.
Go in chat, type /stuck.  Yes this will kill you.  If that doesn't work (a few times), log out, and back in.  Worst case is press F1, talk to customer support.

7. How do I upgrade my bag space?
Go find the bag vendor.  In most starter cities they will be by the merchant area.  Talk to all the vendors, look at the signs.  Its 400 gold for first upgrade of 10 additional slots.

8. How do I access the auction house?
There isn't one.  ESO team wants you to buy and sell within guild through their 'Guild Store.'  Too bad the interface is horrid.  You need to be member of a guild that has 50 or more members, and has opened up guild store for its members.  There are a lot of guilds, and you can fit up to 5 memberships at once.

9. How do I buy a horse?
Go look for the horse stable by press M.  Its the horse symbol.  Bring a lot of gold (17k) or 1 gold if you bought Imperial edition.  They also sell a horse for $14.99 on ESO store website.

10. How do I change my view?
Use your mouse wheel, or press V to cycle between first person and third person.
