Gold Road Chapter
In The Elder Scrolls Online: Gold Road you can venture into the heart of Colovian Imperial culture as you unravel the mystery of the return of a never-before-seen Daedric Prince—Ithelia. While Gold Road continues (and concludes) the Shadow Over Morrowind narrative that began in 2023, you can experience and enjoy the latest Chapter’s storyline without having to play any of the game’s previous content. West Weald Zone Located along Cyrodiil’s southwest border and neighboring Valenwood and the Gold Coast, this new Chapter allows you to explore West Weald, a wealthy Imperial province thrown into chaos. Home to the proud and cosmopolitan Colovians, West Weald has found itself besieged by mysterious unknown Daedra. Even worse, a large part of the region has seemingly overnight become overgrown by the vast jungles of Valenwood, resulting in the migration of local Wood Elves.

Discover more about the zone in this preview blog. Scribing System An all-new system introduced with Gold Road, Scribing grants you the ability to craft and customize your own handmade abilities. With Scribing, you can select a base Grimoire and tailor it with scripts to create an ability that perfectly fits your playstyle and build.

Whether you’re looking for greater power, versatility, or roleplaying opportunities, Scribing introduces a powerful new way to tailor your builds and play your way. Group Activities In addition to the zone’s multiple world bosses, delves, and public dungeons, Gold Road also introduces two new group activities to challenge you and your allies: the Lucent Citadel and Mirrormoor Incursions. In the Lucent Citadel Trial, you and your large group (12 players total) must venture into a long-forgotten Daedric vault within the realm of Fargrave, contend with its unique boss encounters, and seek out the mysterious Arcane Knot.
