    Have more AP than I know what to do with spread among multiple characters. If I didn't I would just go sit on a wall during prim time and fire coldfire siege into lemmings until I get a few ticks.

    I am surprised that they are adding in mechanics that discourage playing the game.

    Ebon armory is BoP now. Necropotence is still BoE.

    There are 28 old BoE sets that are now BoP and 4 old BoP sets that are now BoE. See here for a full list in the spoiler section:

    The trials sets moving to the golden vendor will only have those prices whenever they come up on the vendor. With over 100 BoE sets to rotate through, it'll be fairly impossible though. And a couple sets won't even be BoE anymore (warlock, viper).

    In the meanwhile, you'll have even higher prices because trials won't drop them anymore, making them super-rare (only those left over from pre-update 12).

    And the week after they appear on the vendor, expect to see them in guild stores for double price as people try to flip.

    This is going to do absolutely nothing to improve prices of gold jewelry, unless we all get lucky and the vendor gets exactly the sets we want. And for some jewelry, it will make prices worse. Red mountain necklaces used to cost 50-60k. Now they will be 300k+ in kiosks and 250k on weeks the vendor has them.

    Yeha but purple jewelry will drop from easy mode content. How much extra stats are you getting from 3 golden jewelry as opposed to 3 purple?

    Please tell me this is not going live the way it currently is, with update 12 they're going to offer all 16 new Monster sets at the weekly vendor so the odds of getting the piece you need from the vendor will go from 1 in 20 to 1 in 52 that's unacceptable . they need to update the vendor to maybe offer 1 head and 1 shoulder each week from the Monster sets that would bring the odds back down 1 in 26 closer to what they are now.

    My biggest issue is the inventory level, we added 56 new sets but really got about 100+ because everything is 160 now. Additionally with the increased amount of bop and loss of solid gold jewelry paths of acquisition + rng, and we have the same # of slots to try and get our gear. At the rate they are offering, assuming no repeats, it's probably 2 years to get your gear.

    Again I think the golden's inventory could be tied to the # of undaunted quest givers. Each one would give you a chance at 3x the monster helms (each for their quest pool) 3x the bop sets (can't be the same one the same weekend) and 3x the gold jewelry).

    This keeps the golden scaled to the game and makes RNG less onerous

    250k isn't cheap, though and neither are 500k AP. i really hope that this may bring AP kinda close to a 2:1 ratio, i.e. that you'll get golden jewellry for around 200k gold in the long run. could really help to pay for my pvp pots that way

    250k is very cheap for some stuff that will be going on the vendor and less for some other stuff. Depends on the item. 500k AP is extremely cheap for any gold endgame item.

    Regardless, sticking those items on any vendor for any price goes against the reason they gave for taking them out of dungeons/trials in the first place. Quote below.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/elderscrollsonline/comments/546mo4/welcome_to_the_one_tamriel_eso_ama/d7zd20z
    "If you mean, why did we remove BoE, I believe Rich mentioned at PAX that we wanted to incentivize players that want the rewards to do the content. Before, you did not necessarily need to do the Trials to get the gear from them, this was counter to our design goal for that content."

    Oh well....

    I didn't expect to find gold Necropotence stuff that easily. I'm just not that good at PvP, hate farming (including AP farming) and am mostly broke in game, so for me, for all practical purposes these items don't really exist.

    Or I just think of it as window-shopping of a sort.....

    Pretty stuff to look at.
    250k is very cheap for some stuff that will be going on the vendor and less for some other stuff. Depends on the item. 500k AP is extremely cheap for any gold endgame item.

    You and I seem to play on different planets.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    I guess we do. I would feel like I get an extremely generous deal if I managed to buy a Sun ring for 500k AP or 250k gold.

    500k AP might be cheap for someone who plays a *** and hardcore zerg cyrodiil. But for a casual player, 500k AP might be a month or more worth of pvptime, its all relative. ZOS should find a middleground.

    At the moment yes. But next update they'll drop for free at dolmens so sun is now trash. Anyone that pays stupid money for a stupid set is well. Stupid. It's not worth it at all. Set is a scam. Not affected by major sorc so the buff is no different to having Julianos on with major sorcery. Sure you can combine them now but id rather the new spinners set with Julianos.

    Just to clear up any misunderstandings for people reading this thread later, Sun rings will only drop from dolmens in Green - Purple quality with One Tamriel. Legendary Sun rings will not be available from dolmens.

    As to whether the set is trash or the legendary jewels are worth 250k gold, that's a value determination each player needs to determine for themselves. For the gold-starved, I'm guessing 250k for a very minor legendary jewel stat bump isn't going to be worth it. For the players that have mastered the gold-making mini game, 250k might represent just a single morning's sales, and be totally worth it. Value is all relative.

    But do casual players really need gold jewelry? Its a relatively small stat boost and typically only something that will matter to serious end game PvP'rs/raiders.

    You haven't finished the analysis. Now you have to compare average gold per hour v. average AP per hour (the rate at which you make either currency on average).

    What the other posters are saying is that AP is either cheaper than gold or much more expensive depending on the player. Gold can be farmed at a predictable rate by PvPers and PvEers, AP is farmed much more efficiently by Cyrodiil rats.

    Edit: And AP is not tradeable.

    You are making this more complicated than it it needs to be. The only thing I am saying is that 250k and/or the current gold value of 500k ap is significantly less than what these rings are selling for right now. I am talking about the market value of the ring not how good/bad/overrated the item is. In other words compared to the average market price you would pay right this second, those rings will be extremely cheap when they pop on the vendor.
