Quality Gear Levels Guide - Elder Scrolls Online - ESO

Welcome to the first part of the Quality Gear Level Guide where we look at the basics on what these levels are and where you can obtain them. The follow up guides will showcase what effect the quality levels have on weapons, jewelry and armor. This is important because increasing the quality of your weapon is more important thant increasing the quality of your gear for example.There are a total of 5 different quality levels, Normal (White) being the base layer and Legendary (Gold) being the highest quality.

Materials

Each profession has their own materials, for example if you want to upgrade heavy armor, you will need Blacksmithing Crafting materials. such as Honing Stone, Dwarven Oil, Grain Solvent or the highest quality material Tempering Alloy.

Hirelings & Crafting Writs

Hirelings is a passive that you can activate in almost all the professions that automatically farms materials for you! The Hireling will send you a mail every 24 hours and give you materials, sometimes even gold materials!

Crafting Writs are another powerful tool to obtain quality materials (even Legendary) pretty much for free. Some players that have over 15 characters make over a hundred thousand (yes, 100k+) each day from simply doing these crafting writs. Make sure to check out the guides listed below, everything is explained there.
