    I'm just hoping they use actual pricing, so we know what the cost on Live will be.

    The same here. I'll be doing a couple of videos and articles off this, so I hope the pricing is accurate. I've been saving gold for the last six months!

    Can't wait to see the balance changes, buffs and nerfs.
    I hope, this pts release goes more smoothly than the last one and that we don't have to wait too long until they publish the patchnotes. :)

    Yup, I did the same when I heard about the proc set nerf. Haven't started the game since. If it's actually true that all my farming of Undaunted keys and Viper set parts was in vain, it'll stay that way it'll be time to move on to another game.

    Let's hope that the dev team will be able to avoid a complete blunder like that.

    A thought just occurs to me, we'll probably not get the house prices as purchases in PTS generally cost one gold (unless we get million and millions of gold).

    It's likely we'll get the prices in gold as you are given ~10mil with each template so you can get as much gold as you like.

    Crowns however, everything costs one Crown, so we won't know for sure.

    This is probably so yes and as this is top of the list of things many wish to know this one she hopes they might be good enough to let us know in either these patch notes or before launch at least yes.

    This one assumes they at least have an idea of what the pricing it may be.

    Khajiit may need some time to 'acquire' the necessary funds ...

    Probably it was just unavailable perhaps while the rest of PC Tamriel it was asleep?

    Realistically khajiit is not expecting it to be a quick update and is not expecting to get any testing done tonight.

    This one she does though look forward to perusing the Natch Potes later on today.

    I really hope that part of the balance update will be that daggers increase spell crit as well as weapon crit.... the fact that i have 2 sharpened daggers from the set i have been farming and no sharpend sword is a complete coincidence!
    I hope all dual wield will become usefull for magicka users.
    If you've got a dagger in both hands, how are you going to be casting any spells?
    Kids these days... no concept of the simple basics of spellcasting... :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

    Gold prices are usually as-is. It's Crown Store stuff that all costs 1 Crown. Although Crates were full price, so maybe they'll keep houses full price too, so we can see what they are.

    We generally start with some insanely huge amount of gold, too.

    Hopefully, they won't decide to keep the actual housing prices a secret until the last minute, but it is possible that they (1) don't know what they will cost, or (2) don't want us to be able to prepare for them.

    With Crown Crates, of course they wanted us to know so that people would know how many Crowns to buy.

    I think they also wanted to limit the number of crates we would be able to buy on the PTS so that we couldn't get accurate drop rates from it. Yes, I know the drop rates on the PTS do not matter, they can be changed at any time, etc etc, but if we were all able to test by opening 5500 crates a day instead of 13 a day we would have more fuel to oppose them.

    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    That is more likely I think, yes.

    There's not really any harm in letting us see the gold price of the houses. People have prepped a ton already, the economy on the live servers has been depressed ever since we found out they are bought with gold as people are hoarding it in preparation for housing.

    The question is whether the Crown price has been finalised, but even if it has they will still likely be one Crown on the PTS.

    Not as much with PTS, but this is essentially what it's like when we publish a new update/DLC to the live servers! When we have a big publish to the PTS, though, a lot of the devs anxiously await the natch potes publish so they can watch everyone's reactions. It's fun. :)
