Auto Abandon Not Killing Spree Contracts is a lightweight addon, that automatically abandons contract quests from the Sanctuary board after picking them up.Now you can skip straight to killing sprees without manually dropping unwanted quests.By default it abandons normal contracts and keeps killing sprees, but this behaviour can be flipped via the Inverse abandoning setting. Auto abandoning can also be disabled entirely without uninstalling the addon. Zone story quests that share the Contract: naming are always kept, regardless of settings.This addon does not automatically pick up quests. This behaviour can be handled by another addon – Quest Skipper, which is highly recommended to speed up the entire process.DependenciesLibAddonMenu-2.0

HARDCORE is designed to bring a fresh, challenging layer to ESO gameplay. It was built specifically to pair with the upcoming Overland Difficulty changes, providing a variety of modular challenges.To keep this fair (and difficult), do not use custom UI health bars (like LUI, Bandit, or AUI). My addon hooks into the default UI to hide information and trigger visual cues.Moving the default bars with an addon is fine, but replacing them will break the logic.The RulesOne Life Run: The ultimate challenge. Death means the end of the run.Sealed Mail: You cannot send or receive mail.Restricted Crafting: Your focus is on survival. Only Alchemy and Provisioning are permitted.Humble Gear Only: You are limited to simple gear of White or Green quality.Two-Set Limit: You can only wear two items from the same set, preventing powerful set bonuses.Sealed Champion Power: All Champion Point usage are disabled.Adventurer’s HUD: Your health bar is hidden. As you take damage, your vision dims and narrows. Action bars are hidden and only reveal themselves briefly.Blind Combat: Enemies have no names, health bars, or target frames. You’ll need to watch their animations to judge the fight.No Guiding Compass: The compass is disabled, removing markers and guidance.Hidden AOE Threats: Enemy area attacks leave no telegraphs (red circles) on the ground.Locked Banks: Access to the bank is completely restricted.Closed Guild Markets: You cannot use Guild Traders.Self-Reliant Journey: Direct trading with other players is disabled.Irreparable Gear: Equipment cannot be repaired. Once it breaks, it must be replaced.Dormant Soul Gems: Soul gems cannot be used to restore weapon charges.Sanctuary Skill Changes: You can only adjust your skills and morphs while on safe zones.Bound Wayshrines: Fast travel is restricted to traveling from one Wayshrine to another.
