New Features[edit]
Those who enjoy delving deep into the Infinite Archive or showing off their latest home builds will appreciate the two big new features included in Update 43.
Infinite Archive Update[edit]
Return to the twisting halls of the Infinite Archive (ESO's near-endless PvE arena) and you'll discover two new unique areas, new monsters, a host of new Visions and Verses, and new rewards. These rewards include new collectibles and seven all-new class sets, not found anywhere else in Tamriel!

Home Tours[edit]
Share and showcase your flair for interior design and decoration with Home Tours, a new feature added to ESO's Housing System. With Home Tours, you can search for homes owned and decorated by another player and filter through labels, such as "Cozy" or "Festive."
You can also browse the top player homes in the Recommended tab, recommend those homes to others, and favorite them to return to later. List your own home and see what people think of your creation!

Additional Improvements[edit]
Update 43 also introduces a host of quality-of-life improvements for all ESO players. This includes six new skill styles (for the Silver Bolts, Roar, Twin Slashes, Momentum, Elemental Storm, and Annulment skills) that can have their fragments dropped from base-game activities or acquired with Archival Fortunes from Infinite Archive.
In addition, item set curation expands to include monster sets acquired via Undaunted Keys (from the Undaunted vendors), weekly Trial coffers, Trial leaderboard coffers, and Imperial City monster mask coffers. Finally, this update also adds improvements to mount previews within the Crown Store, and both Guild Trader and Guild Bank interfaces now remember the last Guild you interacted with.
For a full list of all the changes, new features, and improvements arriving as part of the Update 43 base-game patch, check out the patch notes on the official ESO forums.
Free for All[edit]
