Crown Store Items 2.0.10
Psijic Ambrosia Rare Recipe Makes An Appearance (Speculation: Likely non-Crown XP booster)
Tooltips and confirmation of non-crown XP booster.
Key points:
The Evening Dress costume:
The Winter Scout costume:
The Frostmare mount: "With its icy gaze and steaming breath, the frigid Frost Mare seems carved from the very glaciers of Skyrim."
The Purpleback Dagger pet: "The glowing purple daggerback boar is found only in Craglorn in the vicinity of the Spellscar, from which it seems to have absorbed some sort of magical aura."

Crown Store Items 2.0.10
Psijic Ambrosia Rare Recipe Makes An Appearance (Speculation: Likely non-Crown XP booster)
Tooltips and confirmation of non-crown XP booster.
Key points:
- Exp boost consumed as a drink that can be used alongside current food and drinks (and presumably future 'meals' that boost both regen and stats)
- Like the Dwemer motif, the recipe is broken into several fragments but can also be found as a single book
- Still speculative as to whether or not the exp boost applies to Veteran Rank characters, and therefore Champion Point gain
- Crafted exp boost drink has half the duration of the proposed Crown Store exp boost potion, although info may point to the crafted one may be usable for Vet Rank characters/Champ Points (see Paulingtons discussion down in this thread)
- Riding Lesson increases a stat by one point per Lesson, and does not go over cap of 60 points. Does not appear to be affected by 20-hour cooldown.

That's exactly my point
No CHALLENGE = boring
You can own so many players in PvP for X amount of hours and have some fun...
...but I would imagine players forming bigger groups and start hunting you down = no pvp for you
Running trials? Not really since now they're pretty easy and I'm only on champion level about 200.Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.

✭✭✭✭✭Ambrosia is a cool idea, but for the amount of time and effort that it will take in the game, players will be able to pick it up for something silly like 200 crowns, maybe for 5 to 10 of them, from the Store. Usable immediately.
I expect Riding Lessons to be the same thing. 200 Crowns for a pack of 10 lessons, 1200 Crowns for each of the three skills, and 3600 Crowns for the whole thing. I figure they want maxed out horses to be around $40 per character. Meanwhile, the in-game people will spend 180 days and 45k gold doing the same thing. It is very possible that 180 days actually exceeds the average life of a player in this game.
EDIT: The actual cost is 1000 crowns for 10 lessons, for a nominal $190/character for the entire package. I think this is sufficiently high, and comes out to about $1/day for the person who looks at it that way.
I see plenty of new Senches in that picture there. I wonder if they are going to all be limited time. I do hope so.Edited by Elsonso on June 4, 2015 2:40PM0 -

Darkonflare15✭✭✭✭✭Very interesting. Now that is what we need rare rewards.
More rare weapons, jewelry, armor, traits, crafting skills, and mounts can be use as incentives to keep playing the game along with new content. Will benefit this game greatly.0 -

I'm not so sure. I would expect these purple/gold exp boost recipe to be priced about the same for what the current purple and gold motifs go for in the Crown Store. You can get them in-game, but the translation to real-world currency is steeper than one might think.

Or maybe they can just release it with the patch instead of teasing us like that?

I'm pretty sure they intentionally put this new item info in the patches as a kind of tacit "Crown Store preview" system. They know each patch will be datamined and any new info to be posted on forums and discussed, which provides ZOS useful data to gauge player responses and the market for the proposed item. It's a clever marketing and research strategy, and it looks to be working well for them and the players.
I mean, look at Dominoid's post, which details how the Crown Store exp boost has evolved since it was first datamined back in March. This was all due to discussion on the forums and social media, and now we see the latest iteration.
