The Tamriel Tomes system is The Elder Scrolls Online’s official take on a battle pass, unifying several older reward systems into a single, streamlined progression track. Introduced with Season Zero on April 2, 2026, the first season launches with the Tome of Dawn and Dusk.

Unlike traditional MMO battle passes, Tamriel Tomes emphasizes player choice and long-term accessibility over daily grinding.

What Are Tamriel Tomes in ESO?

ESO Tamriel Tome system explained.
ESO Tamriel Tome system explained.

Tamriel Tomes are season-based reward tracks that allows you to earn and spend a new currency "Tome Points".

Tamriel Tomes are designed to:

  • Reduced daily chore fatigue
  • Give you control over choosing the rewards you actually want.
  • Make it easy to view your endeavors, event currency, and seasonal progress in one window.

New Currency: Tome Points

With the launch of Season Zero on 2 April 2026, ESO introduces Tome Points. These points replace both Daily Login Rewards and Endeavour challenges, unifying progression into a single system.

Tome points serve two purposes:

  1. Unlocking Tome Pages: Reaching point milestones grants access to new pages with new rewards.
  2. Spend Tome Points on rewards: You spend these points to claim rewards on any unlocked page in any order you choose.

How to Earn Tome Points

Tome Points are earned through Weekly and Seasonal Challenges. Unlike the Free Tome, which is time-limited, purchasing a Premium Tome ensures that Tome Points can be spent on that Tome’s rewards without expiration.

ESO Plus members receive additional benefits:

  • 10% bonus Tome Points from all challenges
  • A monthly Tome Point Cache containing 2,000 points, granted automatically

Weekly and Seasonal Challenges Explained

Progression within Tamriel Tomes is driven entirely by Tome Points, that you earn through just playing the game.

Weekly Challenges

  • Five new challenges become available each week
  • Up to 12 weekly challenges can be active at once
  • Missed days do not result in lost progress
  • Five rerolls per week (up to 12 stored) to replace unwanted challenges

Seasonal Challenges

  • Larger objectives spanning the full season
  • Offer higher Tome Point rewards
  • Intended for gradual, long-term completion

Tamriel Tome Tracks: Free vs. Premium

Every season offers three ways to participate, catering to both free to play players and collectors willing to spend money for cosmetics.

Free Tome Premium Tome Premium + Bonuses
Access Everyone has access Available with purchase until season ends Available with purchase until season ends

The Premium Tome is the best value for players who play at their own pace, as it allows you to continue unlocking rewards even after the season officially ends.

  • Daily Login Rewards: The whole Daily Login Reward system is removed from the game. Many of its rewards can be found in Tamriel Tomes.
  • Trade Bars (New): A non-premium currency used at the Gold Coast Bazaar to purchase older collectibles. You can earn an unlimited amount of Trade Bars, but you can not buy them with Crowns.
  • Event Tickets cease to exist: As of Update 49 (March 9), Event Tickets will cease to exist and will automatically convert to Trade Bars at a rate of 1 Ticket = 100 Trade Bars.

Summary: The Tamriel Tome "Storybook" System

Think of the Tamriel Tome as a themed storybook. Each completed challenge is like reading a chapter, earning bookmarks (Tome Points). Instead of being forced to read the book in order, those bookmarks let you flip to any unlocked page and choose exactly which rewards you want first.

This flexible structure makes Tamriel Tomes one of ESO’s most player-friendly progression systems to date.
