When you discover a wayshrine, you can use it to fast travel to other wayshrines you've visited.
Wayshrines aren't just for resurrection. Quests are everywhere, and exploration can reveal unexpected surprises, valuable treasures, and other rewards. Every once in a while, just pick a direction and run. Sometimes you can reduce the legwork required to complete a quest by using the Intimidating Presence and Persuasive Will abilities during conversations. Press > to view your abilities, and to review skill lines for weapons, armor, race, and the many other types you may have acquired.
You don't just have class abilities you have lots of skill lines. But remember, you can't change equipment or abilities while you're in combat unless you've unlocked weapon-swapping. Explore different ability combinations on your ability bar.
Some powerful creatures are immune to certain effects, while whole groups of monsters might be resistant to others.
Pay attention to the effect your abilities have on different types of monsters. If you find one of these creatures, use the grouping tool to call for help. Sometimes you will need help to defeat them. Powerful monsters lurk in the wilderness of Tamriel. When you unlock weapon-swapping at level 15, you can decide to place the same type of weapon in both slots but select different abilities for your ability bar. You can't sprint and use abilities at the same time. You will also receive a different ability bar to match the swapped weapon. At level 15, you can equip two weapons and swap between them during combat. To dodge attacks, double-tap a movement key in the direction you wish to dodge. Reading books from bookshelves will sometimes grant you a rank in one of your skill lines. You can see the skyshards you have collected in your Achievements Window, as well as find hints about skyshard locations you might have missed. When you collect three skyshards, you get one skill point.
Some quests grant skill points as a reward upon completion.
