The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset Guide Crafting and Armor
Jewelry Crafting
Jewelry crafting allows you to make rings and amulets in the same way you craft armor and weapons. It functions almost identically, with the major exceptions being the need to farm new Pewter Nodes scattered across Tamriel. The new traits focus on increasing stats like Health, Magicka, and Stamina, or giving a small but useful buff to your movement speed. If you crafted anything in Elder Scrolls Online before, you’ll know exactly how jewelry crafting works.
Those who are new or who’ve been out of the game for a bit, hop ahead to the Crafting Quests section of this chapter to find the locations of all the Crafting Quests in Summerset. They’ll serve as great refreshers or tutorials on how crafting works.
Jewelry Trait Sources
Once you’re familiar with crafting jewelry, it becomes clear that there are particular traits that require a specific source. Knowing how to obtain these trait sources involves the following:
- Arcane: Increases max magicka.
Necklaces and rings with the Arcane trait can be found all over the world, including treasure chests, dops from monsters, and some quest rewards.
The trait item for Arcane, Cobalt, can be found by refining jewelry crafting materials and deconstructing Arcane jewelry.
- Bloodthirsty: Increases damage against low-health foes.
Necklaces and rings with the Bloodthirsty trait have a chance to be awarded as part of the regular rewards for completing weekly Trial quests. Note that reward boxes from Trial quests completed before the release of ESO: Summerset do not contain jewelry with the Bloodthirsty trait.
The trait item for Bloodthirsty, Slaughterstone, can be found in the reward box from weekly Trial quests.
