Vampire Bite annoyance

So, I got someone I was selling a bite to, they paid, went to bite them, and someone else ran inbetween us, and i ended up biting them instead of my target. They had been spamming my PM, begging for a bite for free, aswell. I don't mind giving free bites, but I will sell one if I can, and losing money to someone like that? No thanks. Gave the money back to the person who was buying it from me. Gg, loss of my money right there. You should not be able to bite someone who is not in your group, in my opinion.

    That guy must be happy to get a free vamp. I bet his reaction must have been like this

    It happens. People try that with me (I bite for free anyway) so I don't consider it a loss.

    Has this been confirmed or even remotely rumoured? If not you may want to go easy on calling anyone lazy or acting absurd.

    I have not heard this about them adding WW/Vamp bites to the Crown store, I'd be curious to see the original ZOS source of this, if there is any.

    The idea people are lazy enough to want to throw real money at a vampire bite is absurd, sorry, saying it like it is. Getting a bite from a WW or vamp in the game isn't that hard, Asking for one in DavonsWatch for example usually leads to someone giving you one for free or for a small fee. especially because a lot of the major guild's have plenty of WW and Vamps willing to help other members out. So yea, that covers the 'their lazy' bit as well. Even if it is a rumor, what of it? people arnt allowed to comment/give their opinions on it?

    I remember reading it on the website that seems to have everything they put on the crown store on it a few weeks before they do, it's russian or something i can't remember.

    The opposite thing happened to me. I was standing at the shrine trying to procure a bite. One guy was willing to sell me one for like 5k. I'm about to initiate the trade with the seller and a random guy just came up and bit me for free. I will say that from my end, I was ecstatic. The seller...whoa...he must've been pissed.

    You're more than welcome to express your opinion on here. And so am I; I think it's lazy to pick up on something without making the effort to do a little research about its validity.

    the laziness of some people in this game...

    Someone sent me a "Hello" message the other night.

    I replied in kind.

    The next message I get was ,"Can I have 10k gold to buy a horse?"

    I replied, "You should earn it like everybody else."

    This post will not take you an unusually long time to read.

    I would have done the exact same thing. People joining MMO's and expecting to not have to grind/ put in work for something, is like showing up to a job interview with no cloths on and expecting to get hired......it doesn't work like that......

    Thanks for the help. I've managed to translate the page. So it says on the PTS version 2.1.1. I don't know much about anything so I did the easiest way for me to check which was going to the PTS current version 2.1.3 and couldn't find anything like that. But I guess all this information is somewhere in the code.

    Well, it's confirmed then Vampire bites in the Crown Store. We're (I mean the game is) doomed! Let's start the usual threads about Pay-2-Win and all that. Have a nice weekend.

    Not sure after the recent changes that WW/Vamp are P2W anymore... although, makes you wonder if this is why they suddenly made changes to WW/Vamp to make it less attractive by adding the new requirements to have an ability slotted for regen passives? :p

    The item exists as part of the template builds on the PTS. You get a vampire and werewolf bite consumables, when you roll up V16 there. (Or at least did, when the IC was in testing.)

    Now, Crown Store Art for the bites has been datamined. There's actually a lot of crown store style art in the builds that haven't made it to live at all... so it's a bit of an open question to whether the bites are actually coming or if there's going to be an improved interface at some future date that requires more art than we've got now.
