Crown Store Updates – 6/18

ZOS_GinaBruno

We have just released a number of new items to the ESOTU Crown Store!

First, we’ve introduced the Crown Experience Scroll to the PC/Mac Crown Store, which gives you a 50% boost to Experience and lasts for 2 hours. You can purchase either a single Crown Experience Scroll for 300 crowns, or a pack of 5 Scrolls for 1000 crowns. The Crown Experience Scroll will be available in the console Crown Store later next month.

We’ve also added three new consumables to the PC/Mac Crown Store which simultaneously affect your health, magicka, and stamina:

• Emperor's Hors  d'Oeuvres Tray: This savory meal increases your maximum health, magicka and stamina for two hours, and costs 400 crowns.
• Vivec's Old Bone Milk: Quench your thirst with this item which increases your health, magicka and stamina regeneration for two hours, and costs 400 crowns.
• Superb Triune Alteration Potion: If you need a sudden burst of health, magicka and stamina, this item is for you and can be purchased for 200 crowns.

Please note that while we removed all previous food, drink and potions from the PC/Mac Crown Store, you can still use any of the original items that you purchased. The current food, drink and potions found in the console Crown Store will be removed later next month, and will be replaced with the new consumables detailed above. We’ll let you know when we have an exact date for this.

Finally, we’re excited to showcase our newest mount – the Senche-Lioness – now available in the PC/Mac and console Crown Stores! These fierce and powerful mounts hail from the broad savannahs of Anequina. You can purchase your own Senche-Lioness for 1800 crowns, today.

Will those food buffs stack with crafted ones?

ZOS_GinaBruno

No, the buffs will not stack. You can only have one active food buff at any given time.

Happy to see a non-limited time senche! Can't wait to check it out at lunch time!

Bfish22090

Thanks! I'm sure that would have been a lot of peoples first question.

Any news on when race/alliance changes are coming?

These new updates are great

Alright player base, get to buying all this crap on the crown store. My theory is that if we give them enough money, we might get actual game content too!

I believe they should release the XP pots on console sometime this month not next month because now is a perfect time.

@ZOS_GinaBruno What's the maximum Vet Rank that the new food/drink/potion scale to? Is it VR 10 for the food and drink and VR 5 for the potion, as before, or something else? Thanks!

Vivec's Old Bone Milk sounds very suspicious and I wouldn't drink it. Just sayin'.

Yeah, I can't help but want to make some immature jokes based on the name... heh.

I can confirm that VR10 food is more powerful than it was before @Enodoc, so I would assume it is scaling to VR14.

Prior to scaling Coldharbour Daedrat Snacks (VR10) gave 3,854 Health and 3,504 Magicka, now post-scaling they give 5,066 Health and 4,635 Magicka at VR14 which is a huge increase.

It's meant I can take basically all my points out of Health (was 54/8/0 before) and I am now running 60/2/0.

Would make sense. They will make a killing on consoles right now.

They probably would if they could, but it's not possible. The items are tied into Patch 2.0.11, which still has to go through first party certification.

pmitchell126b16_ESO

Quite stupid to be honest I mean mid june for a patch? I could do with these pots now and wiling to fork out money for it. But by time mid june comes I won't bother needing them.

RDMyers65b14_ESO

Still no new costumes or pets in the crown shop? I've got the mounts I want and not interested in food or potions as I am a maxed provisioner.

Race changes I look forward to but really, we need to have the passives seperated out from the appearance for it to make senseto be a crown store service. Otherwise, it's having to pay real money to respec stat passives. Imagine if they changed the champion respecs to require a crown store purchase...? That's the same thing with how the racial passives currently work. I welcome race changes on the crown store so long as the passives can be changed for in-game gold currency (not the appearance, but the passive skill line). I've always wanted to be an Argonian, but sacrificing 9% magicka and 7% fire damage for a dragon knight? That's a non-starter for me, as it equates to well over 11% damage total and a resource pool boost, as well as the 6% stamina pool and fire resistance. I'd pay to be an Argonian, but be able to pick my racials and respec them for gold like every other skill line is allowed to, though, with one race's passives available at any given time. Given how tightly these passives are tied to many builds, it would be a blunder to require real cash payments for a simple respec. On the other hand, the cosmetic aspect of the races would be a fair one, and I would pony up for it in a heartbeat if it was seperated out.

Also, where is my DLC for zones like Orsinium and Wrothgar on the crown store? Those, I would also pony up for (and the Imperial City if it were made into a charged-for pack, though from a gameplay and subscription-during-first-year standpoint I don't feel it should carry a fee given I dropped in over $300 between the physical imperial edition and subscription fees in that timeframe before the buy to play conversion). The Frost Stallion mount would tempt me and probably get a buy as well.

That wouldn't have even made sense, cash shop power issues aside, given that they are food/drink which you normally only have one of allowed at a time anyway in-game. I don't think it would have even occurred to most people.

Actually, you'll need them more in July than you will now if you're a fresh new console player. Champion levels . Especially those first couple of hundred .

@ZOS_GinaBruno , I am so happy about that lioness mount. Keep them rolling purring!

Yes please look at what world of Warcraft and especially GTA been doing. They both use very successful types of objects to make sells. I will save up money to buy that cat since My main is a Katg- er Cat dude. Wonder if that is a relative.....

I'm not happy to see Senche mounts at all, limited or not, they're one of the worst lore-breaks ZOS have inflicted on the TES franchise to date.

No ursine mounts...?

It's arrow in the knee and bear mounts have already been revealed as coming with Wrothgar/Orsinium.

The lioness looks amazing in game. Screenshot doesn't do it justice.

Those triple buff consumables will tear a big chunk out of our crafter's reason to exist.

Why is that? The in game tri pots are not only better but also you dont have to spend real money on them.

"At this the Old Bone folded unto itself twenty times until it became akin to milk, which Vivec drank, becoming a ruling king of the world." - The 36 Lessons of Vivec (Sermon four)

Earth bones aside, after reading the entire 36 sermons, I wouldn't write off those immature jokes entirely.
