Hello everyone!

Today, we'll be updating the Crown Store on PC and console with three new items for you to purchase:

• Mages Guild Pack - This costume pack includes some of the most commonly-seen Guild uniforms, including research robes, legging outfits, and formal robes.
• Glass Style Item: Malachite (pack of 10)
• Glass Armor Motif

The price of glass armor motifs and malachite just got a big smackdown.

@lordrichter I think it's by the forge in the Hollow City.

That is what I originally though, but the sky is so blue and there is no "snow"

Yeah that can happen. The sky is lightest late in the afternoon, and there are a few times in the weather cycle where there are no ash storms in the city.

How many crowns is the Glass Motif? Anyone know off hand? I'm at work....DOH!

Garret_Masterson

Soriana

Isn't that picture in Malabal Tor, Velyn Harbor?

Lightninvash

sadly the glass armor doesn't even look good enough for what they charge...

Elsonso

Glass Armor Motif: 5000 crowns, including 10 style material (cheap!!! buy now before they realize they made a mistake!)
Malachite: 500 (pack of 10)
Mage's Guild Pack: 700 (3 costumes)

Wasn't it so that the environment of the Hollow City got lighter and more friendlier the more people the player rescued in the course of the quest line? The hostess seemed to appreciate her little pocket filling up with life and (potential) worshippers.

Love the Mages Guild outfits, btw. Dress up, go to any guild hall, /read, /juggleflame, or just /sitchair. Boom, instant RP.

I think malachite shards will drop in price. The crown price is not very high. But $50 for the glass motif? That is a lot of money. I think with a price that high, the vast majority of players will continue to buy glass motif pages with gold.

Actually $40, and even then you get 5,500 crows, so you have some left for the Malachite.

I'm very thankful for this. I was getting tired of completing writ after writ since 9/15 everyday and only ever receiving 1 fragment.

Telel

The new motif hasn't even been out for a month...and Telel just now managed to get all but 1 of the recipes.

Normally Telel doesn't like to complain but this really does irk them. If they're going to add them to the crown store so soon they need to do it when the new stuff is first added, or wait three months or so.

Had they done it right away Telel would have purchased it. Now they're just annoyed.

Accountants, hot on the trail of a coin, do not like to be kept waiting.

Damnit, now I have to buy more crowns...

Then why wait at all? Like Telel said, it should have been put in the crown store the first day if they weren't going to wait a few months to add it.

Now this one is very unlikely to purchase anything in the crown store just out of annoyance over these methods.

Like us, the accountants are likely frustrated by how long it takes the developers to implement things. Daily meetings. Checkpoints. Accountants picketing in front of ZOS offices. It has taken this long for ZOS to comply with the demands of Accounting, and believe me, I think Christmas Card Lists are shorter this year. For Orsinium, I bet Accounting wants that stuff in the store TWO WEEKS before the DLC ships, or there may be some different chestnuts roasting over the open fire.

Telel

Bah humbug! XD

The price will stop most from buying it. I want it. But not for 5,000 crowns. I'll keep going for those pages.

I don't think so; the architecture in the picture definitely rings of Nibenese; Velyn Harbor is Altmeri (and doesn't have a huge cathedral).

Elsonso

It is definitely Hollow City, but not the one that I see in the game. I went there and stood at that location, or as close as I could get due to a tent being there and an anvil not being there.

RaistlinMING

when will the Xivkyn style on crown store?

Maybe using one of the "portable crafting stations" that were datamined?

I figured you would have followed the forums a bit better there was data mining done a few months back that showed these items going to be in crown store. I made a killing on the guild trader selling these off....

Balthyzar

Where's the zyvkyn motif now?

Leondis

With the glass style motif, will I be able to wear glass style armor at VR7? And is it just armor? Or is it weapons and shields also?

Djeriko

Was it intentional for the dye system to produce incorrect colors on Glass armor? Are we basically being told that even tho we earned those dyes, we can't have them on our awesome, expensive, shiny new armor? Yeah if you haven't already noticed, the colors on the dyes for Glass armor are all off.
