Akaviri Motifs on PTS?

I have been informed that the AP costs for Akaviri Motifs are going up "tremendously" in Update 13. Could anyone please inform me of the new prices?

Current prices on Live:
Chests, Helmets, Shields, Staves and Swords Motifs - 500k AP.
Axes, Bows, Gloves, Legs, Maces, Shoulders Motifs - 250k AP.
Daggers, Belts, Boots Motifs - 100k AP.

Also, where may Akaviri Motifs may be purchased? On Live, you can buy them from the Siege Merchants in the gate camps, but this no longer seems to be possible in 2.7.2. Will it become necessary to go to a Quartermaster at a keep/resource? Or does another NPC in the gate camps have them instead?

    As of today's PTS update, the cost of Akaviri Motifs is the same as it is on live. I haven't seen anything in the patch notes about a change.

    As per the patch notes for 2.7.0:
    [*]There is now a War Researcher vendor in the base camps of Cyrodiil. These vendors have taken some of the work of the Siege Vendors, to ease their burdens.
    • The Akaviri Motif chapters, and the Style Items for Akaviri and Alliance styles, are now found in the War Researcher's store.
    I didn't see a pin for these merchants on the map, so you have to look around. But the Daggerfall Covenant War Researcher is indeed in one of the home camps... if only I could remember which one.

    I think what the people meant when told OP they were going up was that the gold price on resale would be going up. This would be because master writs are using this motif for some of the writs.

    I hope that means that people will sell them more. I still need to finish my collection, but some of those chapters are hard to come by. Come on, my pvp friends, buy maces, axes, helmets and shields, and sell them. PC EU. :D

    See, this would make sense, but I was definitely told "AP cost" rather than "gold cost". Probably someone got confused somewhere. It happens.

    @opaj thanks for telling me about the War Researcher NPC. I'll look out for them.

    Prices up on Akaviri? It's already the most overpriced motif there is. Getting it was one of the prime reasons I joined PVP. It cost too much in AP. FYI, if you shop around, you can find it chapters for reasonable prices. I got about half my chapters like this, use AP for the rest. Don't let PVP stop you from getting this motif. AP comes easy, and PVP is really quite fun.

    Also aren't they significantly increasing the AP gain from taking resources, keeps and so on?
