The Elder Scrolls Online community continues to thrive, with each update bringing new features, challenges, and opportunities for players to enhance their gaming experience. While many players have transitioned to PC for its expansive modding capabilities, console players are not left behind. With Update 50, a variety of add-ons have been introduced to improve gameplay, streamline tasks, and add a touch of fun to your adventures in Tamriel.
Cujokills's video lists some of the best console add-ons available for ESO's Update 50. Whether you're a completionist, a PvE enthusiast, or a PvP warrior, there's something here for everyone.
Quality of Life Add-Ons
Vestige Mirror
If you're passionate about fashion in ESO, Vestige Mirror is an add-on you'll love. This tool allows you to showcase all the details of your outfit in one snapshot—styles, dyes, personality, and even body markings. By simply typing '/vm' in the chat, you can pull up a detailed overview of your character's appearance.
GamePadHelper
GamePadHelper is an essential add-on for console players seeking a more intuitive and polished user interface. It improves inventory formatting, adds price markup details for items, and overhauls the map interface. Notable features include:
• Survey and lead tracking by zone.
• Map bookmarking and search functionality.
• Free teleportation to friends or guildmates in specific zones.
• Automatic use of the antiquarian tool at dig sites.
Auto-Claim Tome Points
This simple yet effective add-on automatically collects your Tome Points after completing challenges, eliminating the need to manually accept them. Install it and let it work seamlessly in the background.
What's Missing? – Skill Point Tracker
Designed for completionists, What's Missing? tracks skill points across various zones and activities—main quests, dungeons, arenas, and more. If you're looking to maximize your skill points quickly, this add-on is invaluable.
Collect Them All
For collectors, this add-on provides an overview of all collectibles in the game—skills, skill styles, personalities, mounts, furnishings, and more. The listings are color-coded by rarity, and it even identifies which Crown Crates specific mounts originally came from.
RandoMote
Add a bit of fun to your downtime with RandoMote! This add-on automatically triggers emotes while you're AFK. You can customize the emote cycle and timing to suit your preferences.
Performance Enhancers
Simple FPS and Ping
Keep tabs on your system's performance with this lightweight add-on that displays your frame rate and latency in real time.
Loot Log
After intense battles, scrolling through your inventory to find newly acquired loot can be tedious. Loot Log simplifies this process by displaying all recent loot in one clean interface.
Addon Loadouts
Optimize performance by enabling only the add-ons you need for specific activities like PvE or PvP. Save multiple loadouts to quickly switch between configurations based on what you're doing in the game.
Additional Tip: For optimal performance, disable the dependent library files of any add-ons that are no longer in use. This helps reduce unnecessary background loading and can improve overall game performance.
BeamMeUp
BeamMeUp has been refined over time and remains one of the most efficient teleportation tools for console players. It scans your guild roster to identify free teleportation options across zones. Features include:
• Auto-discovery of Wayshrines by teleporting to different players in a zone.
• Easy access to homes, trials, and dungeons via teleportation shortcuts.
To maximize its potential, joining large guilds is recommended, as it broadens your access across the map.
Sales History
For traders, Sales History is an invaluable resource. It compiles all your guild sales into one organized list, eliminating the need to sift through guild history manually. This add-on provides a clear snapshot of your ESO items sold, sale prices, and transaction dates, making it easier to track your trading activity.
AutoConsume
AutoConsume ensures that your character always benefits from active buffs by automatically consuming food and experience scrolls like Ambrosia or War Tortes when needed. This small but effective add-on removes the hassle of manual consumption and keeps you prepared for any challenge.
Archaeology
For enthusiasts of the Antiquities system, Archaeology is a must-have. This add-on tracks your active leads and provides timely reminders about those nearing expiration. Additionally, it updates lead information whenever you enter a new zone, ensuring you never miss an opportunity to uncover hidden treasures.
Combat Add-Ons
DM2 Parse and Fight Stats
This powerful tool provides an in-depth breakdown of combat data after every fight or parse. You can analyze damage output, fight duration, skill performance, weave success rates, and more. It stores data for up to 20 previous encounters for easy reference.
DM2 Simple DPS
For players who prefer real-time feedback during combat, this add-on displays current DPS and fight DPS in a clean window that can be pinned on your screen.
Weaving Metronome
Perfect for players looking to improve their light attack weaving skills, Weaving Metronome provides visual cues to help you time your attacks effectively. It also highlights mistakes, making it an excellent tool for practice sessions.
Synergy Cooldown
This add-on tracks cooldowns for synergies during combat using progress bars. For tanks and healers especially, it provides visibility into when teammates are ready for another synergy activation—a great feature for optimizing group coordination.
PvP-Specific Add-Ons
PvPCooldownTracker
Designed for tracking cooldowns on proc sets during PvP battles, this add-on requires initial setup to scan your gear and load relevant data. Once configured, it provides clear cooldown information for your equipment.
Cyrodiil Alerts
Instead of displaying attack notifications on your screen during PvP battles, Cyrodiil Alerts sends these messages directly to your chat window. It's a cleaner alternative for those who prefer less visual clutter during combat.
Miscellaneous Add-Ons
The Artaeum Angler
For players who enjoy fishing or are working towards fishing achievements, The Artaeum Angler is an invaluable tool. It features a sound cue that alerts you when a fish bites. Simply press the reeling button upon hearing the cue, making the fishing experience significantly more manageable and enjoyable. Furthermore, it increases the efficiency of fishing as a method for obtaining money in The Elder Scrolls Online.
VerticalBuffsDebuffs
This add-on organizes major and minor buffs into vertical lists with text and timers, making it easier to track important status effects during combat or PvP encounters.
Specialized Add-Ons
The Psijic Way
If you're tackling the Psijic Order skill line quest involving time breaches, The Psijic Way is a must-have. It places map pins on your map to guide you directly to breach locations—saving time and frustration during this tedious quest line.
Tradução Português - EsoBR
A monumental addition for Brazilian players, this add-on translates all in-game language into Portuguese upon installation—making ESO accessible to an even broader audience.
