Advice Needed!

To be brutally honest, 1-3 hours a week is extremely little time available for any MMORPG.

At ilvl 193 you are most likely geared well enough to head into what new content gets released with 3.2, so that shouldn't be your main worry right now. Otherwise it'll be the usual, grind Eso tomestones to buy better gear - but with so little time available it WILL take you much longer than it should to go that route.

Not sure what it is you're asking other than gear, mind you. You sound like you're caught up on the story, so that's good.

Understood that the time thing is not ideal. My job is fairly demanding on my schedule and makes it virtually impossible to "group up" with anyone consistently; which I know in the long run holds me back. I still enjoy logging in and experiencing all of the content (and to be honest, it's the only time I get every week to completely shut my brain off to the stress of work). I'm trying to figure out what the best use of my limited time is if I want to not be a burden on other players and also enjoy the new content.

There are different options as far as gear that seem to be available to me. At my currentl iLvl, do you think the best use of my time and focus would be to get the Void Ark set?

Also, I've progressed in a pretty linear way. When I first started playing I had a lot more time (I actually may have even been unemployed for a short while at first?)... I guess moreso just hoping to get some insight from other players.

[Edit] Thanks for the quick replies! Two more popped up while I was writing back to the first reply...

Honestly: it doesn't matter. Just go for higher ilvl. You only need to worry about optimization when Savage raiding. Anything else can clear all content.
