Dresses finally!!!! Confused about releasing the murkmire furniture pack before the house but whatever. Yay dresses!

Mix

Deepmire Furniture Pack! yay!

We need information on the Xanmeer house!

Sad that the Snow-Globe is Crown store rather than a holiday reward (we could use a New Life present!)

Lovely dress. Similar to Kassandra's from Murkmire. Should look really nice in white. I just hope it won't cost 1500-2000 crowns with 10% discount for ESO+ members... I got the whole Wrothgar for 750 crowns.. just to say...

Is the Snow Globe Home buyable with gold too or it will be crown exclusive?

I noticed that EVERYTHING this month is limited-time. Not a single new item being added to the store "permanently."

Don't care about the spider mount - I got the original that matches my sphere. I'll probably pick up that dress, though.

As for the Orc dress - interesting that it's also limited-time. I was assuming this was the "top tier" dress for 1,000 crowns, as they already released the 500 and 700 crown versions. Is this now going to be the trend moving forward, where the "top tier" 1000 crown version of each newly released "set" of racial clothing will be limited-time? I know that they eventually remove all 700 and 1,000 crown variants of each racial clothing "set," but at least you have a month or so to pick them up.

I'm really hoping that the house is going to be available in-game with gold like the cottage. If it's not, then I won't get it, unless it's super cheap (dream on!). Also, I'm sorta tempted by the holiday furnishing pack, but it depends on the price. And, I'm completely passing on the Sotha Sil pack unless it's cheap, as I have nowhere to put those furnishings and I'm not paying 4,000-5,000 crowns for just the statue (which is the only thing I'd really want in the pack and that I could see placing in Tel Galen or Amaya).

While I'm disappointed that the exclusive deals are just time-exclusive, at least they'll be at a discount. Their first exclusive discount, however, is extremely disappointing.

I think there's hope that we will be able to purchase it in-game with gold after completing the appropriate New Life Festival achievement. I just looked back at last month's showcase article as well as last October's showcase article, and there was no mention of being able to purchase the Exorcised Cottage in-game with gold - it only mentioned it being available in the CS.

So, here's hoping!

3 things I’m excited with - nibenese bundle, skull tattoos, and female orc dress.

Questions:

1) since when top tier racial costumes are limited time offers?? I hope it’s a mistake!

2) what happened with Priestess of Mara costume as a first free item for ESO+ folks? The article said: “The first free ESO Plus member-exclusive item includes a unique collectible: the Priestess of Mara costume”. Now it’s Molag’s statue.. do I mix smth up?!

100% agree!!

Snow Globe Home is a Crown Store item?

Mmm, not interested anymore.

Flaminir

New life furniture pack... I notice quite a few large Snowmen.... I REALLY hoppe that one of those is a DPS dummy!

Preferably a 3m AND a 6m!

Chucking blockades of fire at a Snowman would be WAY too much fun!

There might have been some internal confusion whether it was the first item or just the item they wanted to use in the marketing of the program. Because Bal wouldn't create nearly as pleasant a picture as the one they led with:




Or maybe Mara just got bumped back a month to avoid dress overload. The free items are just upsell so substitutions are fine. I know somebody's already thinking bait-and-switch, but no. Bait and switch only applies to situations where a good or service is advertised with no real intention to ever sell that good or service.

The phrase to keep in mind is, "Note that the new costume will not be available immediately, but will arrive in the Crown Store later in the year." So Mara just needs to be available some time before 2018 ends.

How many decades should pass until they finally release Alinor dresses? Gee, I've never seen a company that tries THIS hard to keep me from giving them my money.

SNOWMAN DPS DUMMY

TAKE MU CROWNS!!

myskyrim26

A tabletop stauette!!! I'm so happy that finally we'll have small beautiful things, not giant ones!

I really love Nibenese Noble Pack. Now I need an Imperial Female to rock it.

Skull Face Tattoo Pack - looking forward to try it. Recently I created a Reachmen witch character, and shee needs some special tattoos

Orc Wise Woman’s Vestment... Oh my! I love the elaborated female Orc costumes that we already have in store, but this one is just awesome! My female Orc is waiting for it impatiently

Deepmire Expedition. ZOS want me bankrupt in Nobember. So be it. Can't miss it.

The Clockwork God's Domain. Well, I'll be bankrupt after Deepmire Expedition already, but still I'd' love to have it.

New Life Festival bundle makes me cry. So many nice bundles, and I'm so addicted to furnishings. Need it.

Luckily, I'm not keen on bear mounts. But Gryphon makes me thinking of robbing a bank.

Recremen

Check out that ROBE!! And that OTHER robe! And maybe even that dwemer mount but idk if I can do well with that color combo tbh but still!!!! Pretty cool stuff overall. And I am definitely glad that nonsubscibers will also get a chance at most of those items, it never sits right with me when something is 100% exclusive.

Bevik

Can the Xmas tree given for free for everyone?

Shawn_PT

The Snowmortals are Courtyard furnishings, Yard Ornaments. They're not dummies, they're just statues. At least on the PTS.

Snit

That Snow Globe home would be a billion percent cozier if the great room had a big bay window.

@VaranisArano The October showcase made no mention of the fact that the Witches Coven could also be purchased with gold, so there's still a possibility that will be the case when the Snow Globe house hits the store. Don't give up hope!

Fortunatto

Still no Alinor dresses. When they'll appear in crown store?
*sadface*

I absolutely love Nibenese Noble Pack and it will go so well for my imperial girl ♡
But as others have already asked - since when top tier racial costumes are limited time offers? I hope that will be one and only precedente or a mistake. : / not cool

XamXam777

Finally! A pretty dress! OMG!

(I've all but given up on getting the Alinor Dresses at this point but that Nibenese Robe makes up for it a bit I guess...)

Not surprised that the Snow Globe House will be a Crown Exclusive (Would be nice if there was a way to get it doing the Event oh well...)
