Mages Guild

The Mages Guild's gameplay centers around finding ancient texts and bits of necromantic lore and a hunt for lost artifacts which runs throughout the entire game. It is one of the three guilds available at the game's launch.

Mages Guild Quests

• Rudrasa's Invitation - Ebonheart Pact
• Curinure's Invitation - Aldmeri Dominion

Players can finde these invitations as posters on the walls of the first larger settlement, like Davon's Watch. Joining the guild opens a new skill line and will lead to the Mages guild quest series.

ARCH MAGE (Quest Achievement):

• Long Lost Lore
• Simply Misplaced
• Circus of Cheerful Slaughter
• Chateau of the Ravenous Rodent
• The Mad God's Bargain

Solving this whole Mages Guild quest series results in 50 achievement points and the title: Master Wizard

It's only followed so far by the quest: The Arch-Mage's Boon.
