I'm with mALX - I just can't fight that well!
I also have auto-decline for both Julian and Mazul - Julian just because she isn't confident in that kind of knock-down drag-out kind of battle, and Mazul because she considers it a waste of time and energy.
I got back online with Julian yesterday and a little bit more this afternoon between errands. She's now level 35 and is properly awed by Sentinel. After dreaming about seeing this Redguard capital for so long, she is absolutely blown away. Stros M'Kai was cool, but Sentinel . . .
Her first glimpse of the Alik'r Desert beyond Sentinel's walls was equally
We both love the sun, the sandstorms (as long as we are within Sentinel's walls, that is), and Julian is seriously considering dropping some hard-earned Crowns on a camel. I'm not sure that a camel would be an appropriate investment, as it does not carry much more than Blanco, though I would rent a camel for the desert outings and leave Blanco in the stables just below the palace. Unfortunately such an option is not available in game!
Julian is arguing that the camel could stay in Sentinel and be available to Mazul. I reminded her that Mazul doesn't ride, and that Paint has been loafing the entire time Mazul's been using him. Julian came back with the reminder that I am considering starting other characters in other alliances, and the camel could be useful elsewhere (though not Skyrim, we're sure!). I seem to recall Buffy in a desert somewhere in the Dominion? So maybe such an animal would be a worthwhile investment. But I want one that doesn't spit! It's bad enough that both cats (Mazul's Spangles and Julian's Bezo) are suitably feline in their temperaments! Then again, a cranky, crabby camel would be nothing new . . .
And I finally purchased the Shadows of the Hist DLC. So far neither lady wants to explore the far side of Tamriel, but when I start characters in Ebonheart, I want that option for them. Who knows? I might finally dive into the whole Argonian/Khajiit mindset.
And speaking of Argonians and Khajiiti, I absolutely, positively love, love, love the way they are done in ESO. The best characterizations, and the most interesting characters so far! Julian met a very charming Khajiit smuggler ("I deal in legitimate goods, but I had no idea that such innocuous items are banned in the Alik'r!") and couldn't resist helping the beautiful cat lady. It didn't help that she reminded me so much of my second cat who passed away so many years ago and still occupies a gigantic chunk of my heart.
@Grits: I checked out the Rude Gesture emote, and it wasn't quite rude enough for me. But there is a /playdead one that might be absolutely outrageous in the right circumstances! If only I could add that to my Quickslot . . .

I was about to mention that the camel spitting had me rolling laughing when I saw it, that is one of the main reasons I would want one = to go around "spitting" on everyone!
That desert killed me, seeing all the dead horses and lost caravans, etc. But at the same time, I loved the atmosphere of the towns so much! The feel of the place is stupendous!!! They did an Awesome job on that whole area for immersion, that is for sure!
By the way, what is the "Shadows of the Hist" like? I thought it was just the addition of two new world boss/group event dungeons. Is there new territory with it? (I imagine Black Marsh by the title). Does it have quests? Skyshards?

Nobody has even asked Haa-Rei or Cirinwe to duel yet. We enjoy watching duels while we wait for world bosses to spawn - especially with those lengthy respawn times in Craglorn.
Also, how cool is that werewolf lord polymorph! The Argonian version looks really awesome, but Haa-Rei can already turn into a proper werewolf, so he won't spend any crowns on a costume

I haven't seen that Werewolf Lord in game yet, only in the Crown Store!

Misa was getting hounded to duel, even after I set it on "Auto Decline" she had people Whispering to ask her to duel. Did the Auto Decline not give them a clue she wasn't interested?
But it is really Awesome to watch the dueling, really impressive!
