2K for Nord Hero Armor?

I think this is too damn expensive... it's almost the cost of the Imperial City DLC. Not worth buying in my opinion... i prefer to spend those 2k Crowns in at least faster bug fixes.

    I expected it to be expensive. It is, after all, one of the three iconic outfits that the heroes in the cinematic wore.

    I was hoping for 1500 crowns, though.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    2000 crown ? Seriously ? That's far too expensive...

    Does it at least look good? Can I have a screenshot of it (preferably on a male character).

    I agree with you, I know is the hero armor and was thinking to spend no more than 1500 crowns too... was even hoping to be less than 1500

    I only have female characters, and I don't really think it looks really good on them. I imagine it looks much better on male characters, though.

    Such a dilemma. It is hard to skip it knowing it is a limited time offer, but I don't know if I will ever have a character that looks good wearing it.

    This will assure that everyone,no matter who,subbed or not,will have to purchase more crowns now.Well,those who havent saved them up. :)

    DLC is only 500 crowns more. You can only buy 1500 or 3000 crowns. So basically you're spending £14.99 on a costume. I want to believe this is a mistake...

    Good-frakin-grief! Ofc it was gonna be more than any other costume, expected that but HOLY COW. That's basically what, a $20 costume?!!

    Yeah but at least you get to ride that SOB lolol! (actually hate the bears they make me nauseous way too wobbly)

    Yep, I'm complaining but I'm sure I will still get it. Only because I get crowns though, no way I'd actually buy crowns to get it. That's just a tad too much imo. Understand its HERO armor costume but daaaamn!

    Had some extra from ESO Plus so it was an easy decision. Bought it alongisde the Bear-Dog. Shoulder pads could be a bit bigger on the female version, but the armor as a whole still looks great. We need more unique armors.

    Sorry, but that looks awful. Nothing against your character, just bad costume design that looks nothing like advertised (again). I will not be buying it.

    Whats scary is they think the costume has the same value as the DLC which may mean the DLC really dont have a lot to it. But having them the same price doesnt make since no matter how iconic the costume is suppose to be.

    Ewe.And just what I was hoping they wouldnt do,..no chains as in the advertised pictures.It looks awesome there,but,..wow.Not so awesome ingame.
    Oh,just an FYI.You guys know where they got the idea for this armor? From a movie called Pathfinder.It was used by Clancy Brown as the Viking leader.Right down to the one horn having a broken tip.

    I can't wait for the AD costume but yeah 2k crowns is quite expensive 1.5k would be more reasonable of a price.
