✭Will the wolf pet and mount be part of the collector's edition Horns of the Reach Pack? They seem like it.
Also, motifs being removed from the crown store... I guess they're barely selling those four, so it makes sense. Wonder if Dwemer, Xivkyn, Glass and Mercenary are going to be on their way out soon.3 -
Anne_Firehawk✭✭✭✭✭The fact you are NOT showcasing the Linchal Grand Manor, does that mean you actually decided to listen to your playerbase and community and actually make it available for purchase for Gold aswell? In Connection with the Bane of the Gold Coast-Achievement or for owners of the Imperial Edition like the other Imperial Houses?

My bad, but still release a 'more fancy' mount few weeks after last one that was "LIMITED" is still very Mehh... 3min in Photoshop to add Emissive texture.1 -
Draqone✭✭✭✭xD on this part:Though it also looks superb in a Great House drawing room, the outer layers of the Voldsea Arvel's Ashland Attire ensemble are of tightly-woven kresh fiber that just sheds ash and soot, so you can look like a lord even in an ash storm!

xSkullfox✭✭✭✭✭Oh reskins againGroupfinder:
The worst part is when it finally puts you in a group, your healer turns into a werewolf, your tank has 14k HP and the dps is heavy armor, using a restro staff and a two handed sword on the backbar. Then comes the 15 minute penalty before the cycle starts anew.

- Third rule of Morrowind: Someone yells NDA stuff, uploads images, streams, the game is over.
- Fourth rule: only invited players can test.
- Fifth rule: one invite at a time, fellas.
- Sixth rule: crying or bashing on pts.
- Seventh rule: NDA will go on as long as they have to.
- And the eighth and final rule: If this is your first invite at Morrowind, you have to play.

✭Nothing worth getting except for the skin and the costumes on the off chance I find a use for them.
A bit sad you added glowy bits to the dwarven spider mount and resold it though...Desperate for Roleplaying servers to bring open world non-organised RP to Elder Scrolls Online. Please ZOS.2 -

I knew they'd add the glowy effects and resell eventually, so I didn't buy the initial spider mount. Going to pick up this one and perhaps the red striped wolf too. Both look great!PC/NA, Level 50 * Current Champion Points: 1600+

✭✭✭✭✭Is the banker dress going to have issues with dyes like the previous ones?
And yay more unoriginal re skins!!1 -

✭Mmmm, can't wait! Loving the costumes, wolf mount, wolf pet and skin.The costumes always seem RP Focused, konda dressed up to go 'out out'..id much prefer more battle hardened hench looking stuff.
I've always wanted more battle-oriented costumes too. The Warden costume is still my favorite costume they've released.0 -
Abeille✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I can't justify buying the wolf mount (it's beautiful, though) when I already have the Ice Wolf mount. But I want the pet wolf! I might wait for a bit to see if an adult Ice Wolf pet is released without the red paint on them, though. Love Moon Moon the Ice Wolf Pup who photobomb my screenshots, but an adult pet wolf would be fantastic. Really happy you used the Dire Wolf model, as it is much better polished than the old wolf models (they could really use an update, you know!).
I'm definitely getting the dress, even if it doesn't dye nicely, because I really like the default color scheme. Though I do hope it dyes nicely, of course.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.1 -
ProfesseurFreder✭✭✭✭✭I'm so bored with all of the clothing that you've added -- like, at least all this year.
This month's outfits are So Very Meh. Especially the men's stuff. Gad, would you please have your designers look at a catalog of vintage men's fashion? PLEASE????? This padded upside-down V look that you seem to be so fond of leaves me cold -- and NONE of my men will wear a skirt, sorry.
This months pets are no better, except the wolf. I already have a Dwarven spider mount, why would I want one in a different COLOR?
*sigh*
I was so looking forward to this months offerings, and it's all bland, BLAH, same-old, same-old."Nothing by which all human passion and hope and folly can be mirrored and then proved ever was just a game."

I agree with you, those two items really look fitting for the collector's edition, I would like to see it happen. They are also released on the same day as the DLC so it's likely.
Those motifs are really cheap nowadays, like around 400-500 gold each, so I highly doubt anybody buys them from the Crown Store. When they were rare and expensive that may have been a viable option but not now. The motifs you mentioned are really going that way, becoming cheaper and cheaper. I can see Xyvkin and Glass staying in the Crown Store for a while, but Dwemer and especially Mercenary, not so much.

✭✭✭✭Update 15 launch 14 august. Ebon skin at same day but it have zero lore-relation, while Bloodforged skin related to one of new dungeons.
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom can we swap dates of their releases? So at same day of update launch we will get dlc-related Blood skin for limited time to celebrate it, and launch Ebon at date when you planned to launch originally Blood skin.

Its already in store and yes, it dyes well and the texture is very detailed.
Its not new, though, it used to be on pts since TG test or even earlier.
Heres a few examples of dyes:The only downside is that it makes your chars shoulders broader, it looks like 80's shoulderpads.
The white headdress and those blue gems arent dyeable, though.

jaschacasadiob16_ESO✭✭✭✭✭It does not matter if the Desert Gala Dress can be properly dyed or not. It's not sexy, nor feminine! It hides way too much of her body. We need more dresses like Balmora!"Yesterday while searching a barrel in vVoM I found a lemon. Best drop of the whole run."
