What Is A Crafting Set Station?
A crafting set station is a crafting area that allows you to craft a specific set piece of armor. Often there are additional requirements, like a number of traits that must be researched before you can make an item of a specific set. While you can make generic pieces at crafting set stations, these are the only areas where you can the specific set that is listed. There is one exception – attunable crafting tables (which are ‘tuned’ to replicate set stations) can be obtained and placed in houses for use.
On your map, crafting set stations appear with a blackened crafting icon when you are close to a location. Once the set station has been visited, the icon turns white.

What Is A Delve?
A delve in The Elder Scrolls Online is in essence a small dungeon. Delves usually contain a few enemies, at least one ‘boss’, and a skyshard. Delves can generally be completed solo. If you are a new player, you may want to explore delves with a friend. Most delves have an associated quest that you can get just inside or near the entrance. This quest is more a side story to the main quest of the area but does offer rewards for completing it.
On your map, delves appear with a blackened single torch. Once the delve is completed (by defeating the boss or bosses), the delve icon turns white.
Greenshade Delves
Need specific info? Click these quick links to go directly to each section.
There are 6 delves in Greenshade.
Barrow Trench
Some caverns are prized, not for the ore that can be mined from them, but for the exotic fungus that grows within them. Barrow Trench is the latter sort.
Unfilled Order
Near the entrance of Barrow Trench, you will find a corpse and a delivery contract. The contract asks that the bearer acquire and deliver alchemy ingredients from the Barrow Trench.
Barrow Trench Location
Barrow Trench is a mine in the northwestern region of Greenshade. This is an ore mine now overrun with bandits and the leader, Overseer Basri.

Overseer Basri

He also summons a protection totem which causes a large aoe. Stay out of the aoe as much as possible and focus on the bandits first, particularly the shaman who has ranged attacks.

After you’ve collected the ingredients, you will need to return to the town of Woodhearth and locate Vadelen Indothan at the Five Claws Inn.
Vadelen is grateful for the assistance and rewards you with gold and an Amulet of the Alchemist. This necklace is not part of an armor set.
Carac Dena

He also yells, which can stun you in place allowing him to get in a few hits. Stay out of the aoe when possible and Urrumaz is easily defeated.
Gurzag’s Mine
One of the reasons the Wood Elves tolerate the presence of Orc clans in Valenwood is that the Wood Orcs are nearly as talented at forging metal as their northern cousins. Bosmer who follow the Green Pact still have a use for metal tools and weapons, and buy them from the Orcs.
Forthor’s Cursed Axe
In Gurzag’s Mine, you will find a backpack. Inside is a handaxe with a note of sale from Forthor who is part of the Marbruk Mages Guild.

These ruins have a bad reputation in nearby Woodhearth—which is not surprising, considering their name in Ayleidoon means “final death.”
Misuses of Knowledge

He also summons a protection totem. Try to destroy it as quickly as possible, then focus on the other enemies leaving the Archmage. His attacks are melee with a dagger.

Domina Ssaranth
Domina Ssaranth is a lamia only slightly larger than the others that inhabit this delve. She has one lamina with her but there are others nearby that may join the battle.

What Is A Public Dungeon?
Public dungeons are a type of dungeon that is non-instanced. This means that it can be accessed by anyone at any time. These dungeons are more difficult than delves. Public Dungeons contain at least one skyshard and often a group challenge that rewards a skill point. Each public dungeon also offers its own quests and achievements.
On your map, public dungeons appear with a blackened cave. Once the public dungeon is completed (by defeating the bosses/mini-bosses and all associated quests), the public dungeon icon turns white.
