Why does the Prong-Eared Grimalkin have 4 ears? Confused.

There are a few real-life kitties with that mutation that have made the news in recent years, they tend to go viral when people find them.

I'm at work on mobile, can someone let me knkw how many crowns the outfit is?

Jazdia · August 2018

@Minyassa Thank you! I love cats, if it’s the right price I might have another kitty for the home.

Same here, gotta give our toons the opportunity to be crazy cat ladies or lads.

Ooh, a dragon-themed furnishing pack!

Still no female high elf costumes? I don't understand why they are being withheld.

Those costumes are unisex and "female" characters can wear them just as much as "male" characters. What's a "female" costume supposed to look like anyway? Mmhmm.

Stop trying to start a false debate. The poster clearly means the costume they have shown on a female model and which only females are wearing in Summerset. I, too, am bitterly disappointed to NOT see those DRESSES in the crown store this month.

The noble female high elf costume was datamined a LONG time ago, in May of 2017 along with the Morrowind stuff. See "Altmer Female High Elf" under costumes on the first page.

Given how long it has been and the fact that it wasn't added to the CS in June, July, or August, I'm guessing they've scrapped the offering altogether.

Probably not actually. ZO$ is notorious for holding out on the costumes that clearly "go with" new zones. The beautiful robe a lot of the NPCs are wearing in TG did not come out until MONTHS after that DLC dropped.I think they just want to make sure we have more crowns by the time they want to sell those costumes to us after buying the DLC. Either that or they just really enjoy irritating the sweet bejesus out of us.

And what about this?
Has it already been out on the crown store? Did I miss it?

The suspicion from the mining of data and other clues was that something like the angry green psijic moose may be obtained by collecting things over the course of several festivals and events.

This may or may not be the case though.

This better not be the case. I would rather spend the £30-£40 for an Indrik mount rather than collect pieces of it over 12 months!

Players: Why do we always have to buy stuff, why can't we earn a mount ingame?

ZOS: *adds something that lets you earn a mount*

Player: But...but... I want to buy it!

Mojmir · August 2018

nope

moonio · August 2018

I can't help but wonder how this thing walks.. Maybe it just crawls as the front legs appear to be twice the length of the body!!

All I can imagine is a pet that follows you around looking something like this

[SUMMERSET SPOILERS]

So in Sotha Sil's workshop in Artauem, there's a full Dwarven Colossus hanging in a corner.

It's hanging to the ceiling via a connector.

Any chance we can get this big boy for our own housing in some way?

This please!!!

@LifenLemons We usually don't get crown prices until the specific announcements that the items are available in the store.

However, since this would be the "high" tier male Altmer outfit, it's probably going to be 1000 crowns.

Alphawolf01A · August 2018

I know its not, but it would have been cool if the dragon skeleton was animated like the skeletal dragon pets. I know its the one from the Artaeum vault.

The weapon packs are becoming very uninteresting due to the elemental effects not being persistent.

Gonna get the firepot spider for my clockwork home, and it's 'meh' to the rest.

I like that the effect disappears when the weapon is stowed and appears when drawn. I know some people don't. Maybe they could add an option for persistent effects. Like the option for "hide helm".

The Great Daenian Hound is rather more reminiscent of Scooby Doo's cousin, Scooby Dum, than of Scooby himself.

Also, I'm somewhat tempted to buy the Alinor Ringtail and call it Oy...

Aeslief · August 2018

I was actually really looking forward to this Great Daenian. I was all set to buy it, and went to check out the preview.

And then he sat.

Just for reference:

I had the same experience. I was all jazzed for a Great Dane.... until he sat down and I discovered he was a freakish mutant. So, another pass.

I love dogs so much, I decided to get him anyway. I have named it ‘Booby-Doo.’

Aeslief · August 2018

I will also add that after purchasing and summoning him, he keeps freezing in the pose of the store screenshot. While he’s stuck in this pose, his head will move but his body is completely frozen

Jinazai · August 2018

So where is the Furnishing set? Come come give me!

ChickenSucker · August 2018

Can someone please clarify if the Molag Kena mask style page can drop from normal or just vet? As there is no mention of veteran in this article:

The Molag Kena Arms Pack will be available on all platforms for a limited time from August 29 to September 26 at 10am EDT. During the same time period, the Molag Kena Mask Style Page will have a chance to drop from the final boss in the White-Gold Tower dungeon, and the Molag Kena Shoulder Style Page will have a chance to drop from Urgarlag Chief-bane’s Undaunted Chest.

Hey guys I just wanted to make everyone aware of a weird texture issue with the new non-combat pet, the Prong-Eared Grimalkin. It has the potential to be suuuuch a perfect, cute little baby pet but the tail has some serious problems. I will try to explain. When he is sitting on the ground, the tail is not flush with the surface. Instead, it overlaps/melds with the ground and appears to sink into it a little bit (I didn't photograph this). I understand this is probably how they developed it to give it a fluffy look and for the most part it works... except, when his tail is in the air -- which it often is -- there is a weird black hole at the end of it.

This is how the cat looks just standing around with his tail in the air:

Stepping forward to get into a cat stretch pose:

I was very close to buying this pet before I saw this thread by user @RaddlemanNumber7 and looked more closely at it in the CS preview.

SIGH. ZO$ you desperately need a quality control department STAT! Like every month you release something that has something WRONG with it. WHY?
