New Ancient Orc Armour in Crown Store?

I'm assuming the new armour will be available in the Crown Store, so I'm hoping it'll be reasonably priced considering the DLC is 3000 and the bundle (without armour) is 5000 crowns. Or am I wrong and the armour set is only found in-game? Or, will it work like the Glass Motif?

(Edit: To clarify, I mean the Ancient Orc armour).

    As far as I'm aware that information has yet to be revealed.

    They will probably do what they did with IC and glass stuff.

    Make it super grindy and RNG heavy to get, then wait a few weeks and release the motif and materials in the crown store for double the cost of the DLC. $$$.

    Just to be clear, the Glass motif pieces were added as part of the BASE game patch, not IC dlc. You could obtain them without ever having bought the IC DLC. Xivkyn was the motif for the DLC, much like how the Ancient Orc is for Orsinium DLC. And we have yet to see the Xivkyn motif come to the crown store.

    They said it was coming though, didn't they? Maybe it'll be on the CS when Orsinium is released and the Ancient Orc armour will follow with the DLC after that. I just hope I'm not having to pay a fortune in Nov tbh ;)

    I hope this doesn't mimic the Glass Motif shenanigans in terms of ways to obtain the new motifs. But I'm feeling pretty sure the Akaviri Motif will have chapters and be fragmented and put into daily quests. :x

    From the livestream we know that the Ancient Orc motif is going to be in chapters and available in the new Public Dungeons, which I'm absolutely fine with and feel like all motifs should be done like this or similar.

    Oh that'll be brilliant if that's the case! :) Being able to earn them. Paying another 5000 crowns for the motif wouldn't make me feel good :tongue:

    If the add it to the crown store I would say the standard fare seems to be 5000 crowns, which should be dicounted 10 crowns for every thread created to complain about it being in the crown store by the time it is over everyone will have the motif and ZOS will owe them crowns.

    Any updates on when the Ancient Orc/ Akaviri/ Mercenary motifs will find there way to the Crown Shop? Noted here that as of one of the earlier posts, Xivkyn hadn't yet been added, but has since...sooooo

    ...when will I get to burn all these crowns I've been saving for these motifs o.O

    Oh, and sorry for the possible gravebumping, but a forum search showed this as the most recent on this topic X^D

    That's the sad side of games "F2P".

    While some of us work hard to be pleased of our hard work beating the stupid RNG, paraphrasing Memphis Raynes, character from Gone in 60 seconds movie, "there's too many self-Indulgent wieners in this game with too much bloody money" that can have the same in a blink

    Soz Magnus, but after I did that LAST time, with glass and Xivkyn...and they screwed me...

    ...it's only fair they give me these in the shop ;) Besides...as I sub, what the hell else would I do with all these crowns?

    Save them to buy the DLCs for when you unsub?

    When it hits the Crown Store it's most likely to be 5000 the same as the other exotic motifs.

    Yes you can assume that every quarter they will launch a new motif and will then add that motif to the crown store for 5000 crowns. I think in ESO Live they confirmed this. So we should see Ancient Orc and Akaviri in the crown store by Feb 2016

    Excellent, and by then (Feb) I'll have 15k crowns saved, so I can get all 3 =P

    Thank you for the info, much appreciated =)
