Apocrypha jewelry station why?

This_0ne

We can buy master crafting stations. I think there is no longer any point in having different types of blacksmith, jewelry, tailoring and woodworking stations. Moreover, ZOS for some reason is not able to make full of themed stations. Maybe the infinite archive will be able to offer us a full themed someday, but it is unlikely that many people are interested in apocrypha-themed stations. I would prefer to have more different cooking, alchemy and enchantment stations.

Some players like these types of stations for the way they look, and use them as part of their housing builds for the aesthetics.

in that case i still dont understand why not give players all seven of theme stations

I don't have any master stations in my house. My guild leader does, but my house is just purely aesthetic. I like the funky themed crafting stations. I agree that full sets in the same theme would be nice, but anything unusual and cool looking is good with me. Plus, the leads seem to drop from IA, which I do a lot. So I have 6 of the 10 leads so far without really trying. I just got them from content I was doing anyway, which is nice.

That's a good point.

This ^ I like having thematic crafting stations for different builds, so it's great to have variations like 'druidic', 'clockwork' and so on. It's not always just about utility, so I hope they keep making them!

i hope we get more different antiquity crafting stations, but we seem to only get 1 at a time so i am completely fine with it not being the same furnishing style every time.

Better than the clockwork crafting stations which we can only get with crowns as we dont need crowns for antiquity crafting stations.
just leads or gold if you got all codex entries.

I like that they keep releasing new antiquity stations. And I like that they are all of various designs. The new Ayleid Blackmithing Station is a huge improvement over the Orsinium Anvil.

What I'm NOT liking though, is that they keep tieing antiquities that require numerous leads to IA. The pool of leads is already too numerous to reliably seek the leads you're looking for. And with update 43, they dumped even more into the mix.

Yes, I don’t have the crafting station from there yet. I think it’s clothing. So many leads from there I don’t have even one yet.

It’s not from lack of trying, either.

really? im chasing the last one for the shipbuilders wood crafting from the galen dailies boxes, and no luck so far.....trying also in the IA wld be handy....or do you just mean for the latest station? ive done that one.

When you look at functionality, grand master crafting stations beat all other ones, however there still is some point in adding those other looking stations. Some people like to collect them or use furnishings that fit better in their house theme.

What I think would be nice is if they added a new Enchanting station. The one that is currently available (Daedric) looks kinda off compared to Alchemy and Provisioning ones (Telvanni, Druidic). And those 3 types of stations can do all master writs so, any new one would be welcome.

That'd be nice, but on the other hand, since the themed stations are mostly used for the vibes, it's not really important to have all seven. You can always build a jewellery workshop instead of a master crafter workshop. In fact, it's actually easier to fit one station and decorate around it than seven.

Ever since porting outside the house and the decon assistant were introduced, non-master stations became superfluous.

I guess in future we might be able to use the stations as skins for mastercrafter and attunable stations so just chill and wait it out on top of that you ight want to get simple stations matching the style of your house rather than completing master crafter stations for each house.

More styles for alchemy n echanting cooking would be nice tho

oh yeah, about that. it's a shame that workshop stations aren't added to the account collection. it would be great to have them in every house without buying them every time, considering how much investment they require to fill with all the sets. since zenimax decided that this game doesn't need a full guild hall system, i'd like each of my houses to have full crafting functionality (okay, i'll agree to put munduses in only one house

i dont know if it helps, but i just stopped digging up the leads after i did them 3 times, i am unsure if this influences receiving other leads though

PC has had U43 for a week and half and im already halfway to a 2nd jewelry station (and have dug up 3x copies of every other lead from the archive already)

You know what would be awesome? Themed skins for the grandmaster stations!

Not sure what you are saying, maybe that those new leads are obtained quickly? I don’t run the archive like you do, though.

The hubby and I ran two arcs yesterday, so 2 Tho’at chests and we got 3 side room chests. Five chests and only one lead out of that. It gave me 2/3 of the Visions of Mora. I bought one of those leads from the filer.

I don’t think I have ever got a lead from a Tho’at chest, to be honest.

I only have at most one lead of each thing in the archive, and that is only the single lead items.

i dont know if its true, but ive heard if you "hold leads" from the pool it might give you a better chance to get other leads from the pool

so any lead you dont need to dig up, just hold onto it till it expires

the leads are very all over the place, there are some runs i get leads quickly (drops even in the first arc) and other times i dont get any leads even going deeper (i did a run last night where we stopped in early arc 6 and did not get a single lead drop the entire run)

i usually find the best ratio to drops/speed is to clear arc 3, this gives you usually 5 (3 armor and 2 weapons) class set drops if you kill the 2 marauders, and a good amount of bonus portals and scamps

skyrimfantasy

Meanwhile I just keep waiting for ZOS to let us buy this.

AllenaNightWood

the master ones are neat but i prefer the unique looks of the ones we collect fragments for as there is place for both, grand master look good in clean themed guild halls while the fragment based ones look good in home of an adventurer

I still kinda wish we would get full sets. Imagine how cool it would be to have a full druidic-themed crafting place, or High Isle-themed.

I think you are missing the point. There aren’t any leads that I don’t need since I have gotten so few of them.

I am trying to run the archive as many times as I can this week because next week these new leads will further dilute the pool of possible leads.

There is also no way the two of us are going to get through arc 3. We don’t have the builds or the endurance to do so.

yeah if you still need a lot of the leads thats not going to do much then

the ways i usually run is on a dps spec toon solo with a tank companion, or in a 2 person run with 1 or both players running dps specs (the arc 3 marauder gets a bit iffy though if theres no tank person)

doing this i can usually clear arc 3 in an hour or less (avg time is 50-60 min with a tank companion, or about 30-45 min in 2 person dps run)

the time always varies a little bit due to the available verses, visions, and how many bonus portals decide to appear

i do understand the endurance thing though, probably doesnt help doing more runs for sure, i cant really confirm if later arcs have better chance to drop leads and such

my luck with both leads and style pages have been all over the place, when the torc of the ayleid king came out, i did one run where i got 3 of the 5 leads for my first copy in a single arc 1 clear, then there are other times i get like no leads or style pages even clearing arc 4

Another two arcs today, another single lead. The style pages are messing up my lead drops too, I got two of those instead.

I got the purple lead for the light diffuser, it’s really nice but unlike a plan I can’t have more of them unless I get another lead. Why did they have to put so many furnishings in here along with all of the other stuff? I still have the torc mythic to get too.

Sigh.
