Welcome to The Tank Club’s ESO+ Free Trial Tank Guide!

ESO frequently offers free trials of ESO+, typically lasting a week. As a tank, you can take advantage of these trials to enhance your experience and setup in The Elder Scrolls Online.

During the free trial, you’ll have access to all zones, dungeons, and trials, except for the most recent chapter update. This is a prime opportunity to unlock valuable items, skill lines, and gear that will be incredibly useful for your tanking role.
