Hundigs Palatial Hall Rooftop Access [ultimate solution]

Hello,

Hundigs Palatial Hall is well known as the best house in ESO (no doubt about that), but it can be even better if you have access to the nice rooftop. I finally got all the parts to build the perfect solution! :smiley:

Here you go:

It consists of around 100 parts, most of them are the stone blocks. The round walls are made of the Redguard arc bench, the stairs are made of the wooden platform with the two stairs (blueprint can be bought at every carpenter). Creating propper, functioning stairs is acutually the hardest part...

I hope you like it and it gives you some inspiration!

Greetings,

    I did some tests on the PTS so I had a pretty good plan how to build the tower and where to start the stairs so that they face the correct directions for the first and second floor. Putting all together took like 4 hours in total so not that much! :smiley:

    you built a tower to access a part that you can simply go through a door to get to.....

    erm....... why?

    ah... sorry... was misunderstanding the picture. but why not just build from the upper level rather than the ground?

    I also thought about that but I wanted to have nice access to the balcony on the 1st floor, so I had to build that tower! :smiley:

    The tower is mainly to access the rooftop. The entrace to the balcony is nice because otherwise you have to run around the whole house to get up there (or jump from the tower), which kind of sucks...

    I don't like the indoor access to the viewing platform, too much doors. The shortcut walkway is perfect, no more door loading screen.

    Amazing idea!! Too bad it takes 100 items, but it's quite a piece so it's probably totally worth it.

    Very nice work!
    But 100 pieces? That's 17% of your allocated space on your stair. I think this highlights the need for housing furnishing capacity to be significantly increased in some manner. Especially for Hundings Palatial Hall, and other such huge homes.
    If you can be anything, be kind.

    Most of it is actually cosmetic stuff, meaning all the stone blocks. The main construction consists of 17 benches and around 30 of the wooden stairs. I still have around 400 slots left for my interior, that should be enough to be creative! :smile:

    You can run them pretty smoothly like normal stairs - no jumping needed at all. I wonder why they haven't included all kinds of stairs. Most of the objects that look promising in the beginning won't allow smooth walking above them...

    100 out of the 600 limit is way too much chipped off, that would kill detailing inside the house. Chose not to waste the limit on accessing the roof and instead chose to make the place look great.

    Limits need to be increased.

    Great work OP!

    I wish there was an easy way to have functioning stairs too..

    I don't know about it being "the best house in ESO," lol. I'm not a fan of its interior layout (it's not very good), dark lighting, or sand everywhere, but that aside no one can deny that you've done very impressive work there. Good job.

    Great job, looks awesome!

    I'm too impatient to build something like that. I couldn't even decorate a huge manor.

    For me the best part of Hundigs Hall is the tower by the sea where you can hear the sea and the seagulls when you're on top of it. Gimme that, ZOS, as a lighthouse without any house or manor or something. For THAT i would actually pay real money (TM) aka crowns.
