How do you level up the Fighters Guild skill-line?

To level up the Fighters Guild skill-line in the Elder Scrolls Online you have to kill Daedra, Undead or complete Dolmens. The skill-line levels up by amount of Daedra or Undead killed, the experience gains are not important. Therefore it is recommended to find Daedra and Undead that are easy to kill. Another popular way to level up the Fighters Guild is to complete Dolmens, you can learn more about this here in the "Dolmen Farming Guide".

The numbers are based on a naked level 50 character without any skills, passives, attributes and champion points allocated. Your damage numbers will change depending on what gear, skills, attributes, champion points, enchantments or buffs your character has.
