Get your pocket Mammoth now before it's gone.
For me it will be time to get a Kagouti!

Yeah, I presume the removal of that stuff is just in time to be included in the next Crown Crate season.

Jury is still out on the stuff they are adding, but the costumes look promising. Will have to see them in the game.

P.S. I can't access the website with Huawei Honor 8 and Google Chrome. The submit button in age gate doesn't do anything.

Eh - I was kinda hoping Assistant updates might be offered this month. Guess not.

Shame. I know they would have identical functionality, but Tythis is such an ugly dude to have on display in my house. Oh well.

Froil

Oh yesh I'm getting me that Argonian kilt outfit!

Destyran

Can we get some almer costumes???

Those Argonian outfits are pretty cool!! I wish we had more hairstyles and/or personalities coming this month...

luen79rwb17_ESO

Dissapointed! No hairstyles at all. Now I can rest assured that the only hairstyle that I like will most likely be on the next crown crate season

Kagouti doesn't related to Vvardenfell in anyway

@lordrichter
I think you should be able to check them out on the PTS (well if you are in general). I seem to remember that I wasn't too impressed, think they look better in those pictures.

Wow, great lineup this month!! I was strongly hoping for that particular Kagouti and here we have it!

Some quick notes, though, having tested the stunning Argonian outfits already :

• The two kilt options need to chill with the ballooning out in front. On my character it looks like he's hoisting a sail under his belt. The back is fine and seems to drape naturally, but the front comes out like the prow of a ship and needs to get adjusted!
• All the outfits suffer from prominent undyeable spots and/or don't take dyes very well. For example, you can't get a vibrant red on any of them to save your life, and the canary-yellow fringe on the robe (which can't be dyed) clashes prominently with many different dye schemes.

At the very least the ballooning on the kilts should be a priority to address. They're such incredible garments and I'd hate for people to pass them up over this issue!

@Cinbri

Kagouti are native to Vvardenfell. Morrowind was the first game we saw them in, in fact.

Wayrest suede doublet ensemble and the welwa will be mine.

Rev Rielle

Looks great!

But the staff pictured in the Celesital Motif picture is not actually a celestial motif staff.
So be warned if anyone is buying the style for that particular look.

Vizikul

Hmm... it appears to be the month of the oversized lizard. Nothing interesting for me.

But why are they even removing stuff from their cash shop? As a company, wouldn't you want to expand your variety as much as possible to cover each and everyone's taste and get the most revenue?

@Rev Rielle
YOOOO great catch!! What is that staff motif??

@ZOS_GinaBruno any help on that?

max_only

Hey. This Welwa is too small.

It should be as big as the freckled guar.

Normally, I wouldn't complain, I've had my share of small Welwas , but this one... is rather more runty than I was hoping.

nvsg

Breton hero costume now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ...and snow wolf mount tge white one return to me!!!!!!!!!

Rouven

Butch, yes, I'll name my Welwa Butch tonight. Hah, gnawing on the bone like that. I'm also happy that he lies down just like in the picture! Gotta be my favourite pet now.

Nice to see costumes for races other than Redguard, Imperial, or Breton. Yeah...we've had some female Bosmer and male Orc costumes, but those are the only races that have received costumes for both genders. Hopefully, the trend will continue so that we'll see costumes for other races. I'm guessing (hoping) we'll see Dunmer costumes with the release of Morrowind.

Not that interested in anything else in the showcase, but I'll have to decide whether I'll pick up any of the items being removed - to make more space. It seems like with the costumes, the trend is to introduce three of a given race/gender and then only keep the cheap one in the store. Perhaps their eventual plan is to have one for each race/gender always in the store. I dunno...just a thought I had - I hope it's true, as this would ensure there was at least one thing in there that someone would want for their particular character. I'm tired of dressing my Dunmer in Breton/Imperial/Bosmer/Redguard outfits.

I saw the German announcement for the May 4 Crown Store update, but no English version. Am I just not seeing it? @ZOS_GinaBruno ??

When the Kagouti will be available?

Meathook94

The Kagouti mount is 4K crowns, and only available for 18 days... This is another overpriced pressure-sale that I will pass on. A horse is just as good. I know this is a vanity item, but it feels like Zenimax is taking advantage of some people's vanity. It is in no way worth the price.

WTF?? I was looking forward to buying this one! Well nevermind, yet another mount I won't buy. I'm starting to feel really bored with the crown store. Either it's terrible design or overpriced...or both!
