Endless Archive Secrets  

Endless Archive is a Location in Elder Scrolls Online (ESO). It is a sprawling demiplane and library linked to Apocrypha. It was added with Endless Archive update in November 2023,  and is accessible to all characters of all levels and Factions.

The Endless Archive, a section of Apocrypha's great library, is rife with twisting pathways and endless labyrinthian halls. To wrangle the multitude of corridors and locations is an exercise in madness, yet Master Malkhest intends to do just that and fight back against the malicious force causing chaos in the formerly peaceful archive. The books and tomes within have come alive, spilling their words into reality and attacking any interlopers. Do you have what it takes to brave the shifting nature of the Endless Archive, traverse the mazelike passages, and defeat the archive's enemies? Venture forth solo or with a friend and brave the ever-increasing dangers for rewards bestowed by the Daedric Prince of Knowledge himself.

Endless Archive has the following Class Sets: Endless Archive Sets

Endless Archive Information

  • In Endless Archive, you are tasked with venturing into the ever-changing halls to battle a random assortment of enemies from throughout Tamriel.
    • Most of these enemies have been seen and battled before… but not like this. Enemies increase in difficulty after each completed stage, and rewards and challenges increase the deeper into the Archive you reach.
  • You are not without help, though, in the form of Mora’s Boons: Verses and Visions.
    • Verses are powerful boons that last for the next stage only and can turn the tide of battle.
    • Visions are long duration boons only available after defeating a boss but persist for the entirety of your run.
    • Choosing which Verse and which Vision is integral to your success in Endless Archive.
  • Endless Archive can be accessed in one of two ways:
    • For Necrom Chapter owners, head north from the Speiran Tarn Wayshrine along the coast of Apocrypha.
    • For non-chapter owners, navigate to the icon on your map for Apocrypha and use that to enter.
  • Each new run starts from the beginning (no saving and starting again) so planning and preparation are key.
  • There are three ways to play: Solo, with a Companion or with a friend.
  • Endless Archive Progression: 
    • Stages – Each time you go through a Portal in the Endless Archive, you are taken to a new Stage. You usually have two stages of trash mobs, each one containing three packs of randomly generated mobs. The third stage will contain a boss, randomly selected from a very long list of potential bosses found throughout ESO.
    • Cycles – After beating the boss at the end of the final stage, you will begin a new Cycle. Each cycle has the same structure as that described above, two stages and a boss fight on the final one.
    • Arc – After completing four Cycles, you will have to fight another boss, which is the final boss of the Arc. This one is tough and can easily end your run. After completing the boss, you will move onto another Arc, beginning the process anew (Arc 2, Cycle 1, Stage 1). Each Arc is more difficult than the last – mobs and bosses will hit harder and you may occasionally find surprise bosses (Marauders) mixed in with the trash pulls.
  • There are two Leaderboards for Endless Archive: One for solo players and one for duo.
    • Rewards are offered to adventurers who delve the furthest!
  • A new currency, Archival Fortunes, can be found while adventuring in the Endless Archive.
    • This currency is exclusive to the Endless Archive and is used by its caretakers and filers to exchange goods.
    • ESO+ members will receive a 10% bonus to all Archival Fortunes.
  • Filers Tezurs and Ool are watcher merchants found in the Endless Archive. Both deal in Archival Fortunes.
    • Tezurs offers support for adventurers in Endless Archive and also acts as this update’s Achievement Furnisher.
      • Consumables can be bought to gain a Verse while running the Endless Archive.
      • You can also purchase boxes containing items from Class Sets if you so choose.
      • Crafters may wish to take advantage of the boxes and sacks of profession-related crafting materials for sale.
      • For the more accomplished explorers and adventurers, permanent upgrades are available for purchase to help make diving into the Endless Archive easier.
      • There’s also a lockbox for those who simply prefer cold, hard cash. 
    • Ool has a continually rotating, eclectic set of wares from week to week. You can expect to find treasure maps, Antiquity Leads, monster set style pages, companion gear boxes, lorebook furnishings, and assorted achievement and dungeon fragments for sale.

Endless Archive New Tales of Tribute Patron Deck

We've added a new patron deck for Tales of Tribute, found in the Endless Archive. It stands to reason that within the myriad, mazy halls of the Endless Archive, a cultural curiosity can be uncovered. A game amongst mortals, Tales of Tribute, has indeed ended up in the seemingly infinite of the Archive -- why wouldn’t it? Further, the mortals adopted their own patron with its own rules, paying homage to the Daedric Prince of forbidden knowledge, Hermaeus Mora. Uncover the deck and its fragments within the shelves and books of the Endless Archive and play with new-found power to defeat your opponent. Be wary, however; as is always the case with the Daedric Prince, such powerful knowledge comes at a price. In this case, cards that help you can also help your opponent…

 

New Group Finder

We've added a new tool to help you easily find other players to group with as a solo or partially filled group. You can access the new Group Finder through the Group and Activity Finder menu. Note that this helps you find other players that want to do the same activities as you; it is not a queueing system.   

 

Grand Master Crafting Stations

Are you proud of your enormous collection of item set stations, but find yourself frustrated by how much space (and furnishing count) they take up? Have you ever wished there was a way to take the dozens and dozens of set stations for a tradeskill and squish them together into a single all-in-one station? Well, good news! Four brand new top-tier crafting stations to consume your attuned crafting stations and host them in a unified space are coming to your local alliance furnisher.

  • Each of these can be purchased for 1,500 Writ Vouchers from Faustina Curio in Elden Root, Wayrest or Mournhold, provided you have completed the "Grand Master Crafter" achievement.
  • As new craftable sets are released you'll be able to attune those and feed them into Grand Master stations as well.
    • The gorgeous looks for these superlative crafting stations improve based on the number of different crafting stations they've absorbed; Unlock them all!

 

New Homes

Two new homes are available for testing and will be available on the Crown Store sometime after the launch of Update 40.

  • Gladesong Arboretum: The soothing sound of a waterfall accompanies the wind as it sings softly through the majestic trees in this druidic settlement. Carved stone shelters provide comfortable living spaces and open onto inspiring vistas.
  • Tower of Unutterable Truths: Only Hermaeus Mora knows why the previous curator fled this towering edifice filled with proscribed enigmata. Now the One Who Knows seeks a new cataloger who enjoys the panoptic views of Apocrypha and never, ever opens the books secured within.
