What Is Veterancy in ESO?

Veterancy is a dedicated PvP progression system announced during the 2026 ESO Seasons Direct by Brian Wheeler, Project Design Director for Combat & PvP. It arrives late in Season Zero.

The goal is to give PvP players a visible progression path and rewards that reflect time spent in ESO's competitive content. Wheeler described it as a "badge of honor" for PvP veterans.

How ESO Veterancy Works

Based on the Seasons Direct stream:

Veterancy levels are based on Alliance Points and experience earned in Cyrodiil, Imperial City and Battlegrounds. All three PvP areas count.
Players participating in the Vengeance Campaign also earn Vengeance-specific perks through the Veterancy system.
Rewards update every six months. Some carry over from season to season, so if you missed an initial reward drop, you get another chance in Season One or Season Two.
