I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee

I just had to do it LOL. The new golden pursuit rewards are so great! Are you using any of them? Did you like them? I personally loved them but especially the minor adornment. The Nord Hero costume is also pretty great. Overall 10/10. I absolutely loved the first golden pursuit! Also, please share your own pics of the rewards!

OMG I thought it was arthritis!!!

Personally, these rewards don't entice me to do quests in GP. I don't need another costume so if there are rewards like these I'm not interested in GP.

i love that new Adornment

And now I have the song stuck in my head...

I think the costume looks pretty good, was pleasantly surprised by the 'up to date' texture quality too, but the adornment is what amused me the most.

Arguably it will be short lived [amusement] for me but considering the absolutely minimal effort required to unlock the rewards I don't really mind.

Furthermore maybe this is the start of adornments in other attach points.

I love both rewards, but the nord hero outfit makes my nord's bootly look big. lol

I agree. Loved the first Golden Pursuits. Anything that gets people delving (see what I did there....?) into more content is a good thing from my perspective. The Arrow In The Knee adornment is perfection.

I know not everyone will want to play along, but this is a 10/10 from me

Its funny to me because the costume is literally your avatar LOL.

Do daily writs on one character and use lazy crafter to do it (quests done).
Travel between 2 houses you own (done).
Queue a random daily (done).
Kill one world boss that players camp out now (done).

I'm not much into nostalgia for Skyrim (because I'm still playing it so I'm not nostalgic). The adornment is something I won't use (my girls prefer earrings), and without doing content I never do, I won't get the costume (which is fine, because previewing it shows it makes every girl I tried it on look bulky/heavy/fat - and also because I've never had any use for the "hero" costumes in the game).

The things I did were fast, so that was fine. This system will be something else I probably will never do "all parts of".

I’m not currently using them, but I thought it was a fun first experience.

The adornment is definitely one of the better things we've seen brought to the game this year, haha. Sadly it doesn't suit my Khajiit sorc very much so I probably won't use it, but I got plenty of joy out of it being added to the game just seeing these pictures.

I think my drunk Nord has found a new outfit.

AcadianPaladin · November 20

I think this first Golden Pursuits was very well done. I was concerned that it might be an excessive grind or the activities required might be tedious or unpalatable for my elf but such was not the case. My elf is absolutely a clothes/bling horse so costumes and bling are always welcome. Though these particular rewards were not her style or taste, it is nice to see that many others are enjoying them. Well done I say!

Yes, I like the forum icon and even though the costume is of the same genre I don't like it.
I have my look and also my companion have "cool" look in the game and I'm happy and don't need another costume and things like that, yknow...
I'm not saying there won't be something cool in GP in the future that will blow me away, maybe it will, but the current GP isn't it.
Of course everyone likes different things and while I personally wasn't thrilled with this GP rewards a lot of people were and that's a good thing of course..

And as for the tasks in GP, yeah, completing them is a matter of moments, you can complete most of them without focusing on the tasks. I have completed everything (without doing it on purpose for GP) except the GD that is needed, and it will probably stay that way with me because I only go GD for Leads and I don't currently plan to go any. And I'm not the type to do it purely for the "got it done" feeling. If I like the rewards, ofc I'm in, if I don't like the rewards I don't bother with the completion requirements no matter how easy they are..

I like the GP concept and I'm definitely curious about the next GP, but this first one just didn't excite me in terms of rewards and I'm more curious about the next one.

I won't use it often but I felt like I had to equip the adornment at least once given my crafter (who coincidentally is the one who earned it) is an Imperial called Sagittam Ad Genu.

(His backstory is he's a retired soldier who decided being an adventurer was an even worse idea, so he settled down in Summerset where it was supposed to be quiet, but he had to briefly come out of retirement because some skeever kidnapped him on the way home from the pub and sacrificed him to their master. Anyway, the name seemed funny to me at the time.)

Please tell me there's an Argonian guard NPC somewhere in the game called 'Arrow-to-the-knee'!
