Safebox Furnishing Loot Unable to Launder/Fence

Omega_Cumulonimbus

I have gone thru all the appropriate channels to try and make this issue be known, submitting in game bug reports and emails but looks like their is to be no attention applied to this issue.

The issue being several of the new furnishing lootable items are broken i.e. cannot launder, nor fence the item in order to place or sell which is proving to be very frustrating given the drop rate of said items and the fact that I rather enjoy the housing feature in game. The two items now that have been found to be bugged (by me personally) are Velothi Tapestry, Gyser and Velothi Tapestry, Volcano. I have also heard of other items from safeboxes experiencing the same issue. Would hope some attention could be applied to these furnishing items as I know Im not alone when i say finding rare furnishings is a big part of my game play experience and having such great items bugged is frustrating to say the least-not to mention if I were the one who created these fine items I would be just as frustrated they are broken.

It was the best of luck and the worst of luck...

ZoS please fix this asap, very dangerous to run around with awesome items you want to fence!

Same problem here, in my case it's a Velothi painting I cannot fence. I dont remember in what container I looted it.
I have it in my bag almost since day one of Morrowind... I would hate loosing it if I get caught by a guard somewhere...

Same I have 2 looted paintings from Morrowind that i cannot fence....
Any second now I am going to accidentally steal an apple from a crate while handing in my writs, stumble into a guard, PANIC, run through town gathering more guards, get stun locked by a dozen angry guards, DIE, and lose my paintings....

Have a question that can be posed in two different ways:

Why is that purple tapestry only worth 100GP, when purple paintings used to be 395GP in value?
-or-
Why is that 100GP painting flagged as 'purple' when it should be 'green' like all the other 100GP trinkets.

All the important issues. figjam.

Velothi Painting, Classic Volcano
Velothi Painting, Modest Geyser

Add new painting from safebox to the list-come on zos-running out of time to fix this before full access of Morrowind...

Add Velothi Painting, Classic Volcano

All items are Velothi's... weird.

I didn't see a fix for these in the patch notes today:(

Omega_Cumulonimbus

Add Velothi painting, gyser - Some attention I believe should be applied to this issue prior to it becoming a big issue for many.

Mix

They are so pretty! Shame to have to leave them in our bags instead of hanging them in our homes!

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom Could we get confirmation that this issue is being addressed? Now that Morrowind is officially launched players on all platforms may experience this bug. It needs fixing asap!

Omega_Cumulonimbus

Thank you for tagging Gina and Jessica. I know they are terrifically busy but maybe this has passed their eyes and hopefully some corrections will be forthcoming.

I am curious though-are others experiencing these issues with the items? The drop rate is ridiculously low but would be interested to see if the bug is attached to the item or to the account...

I stole my very own Velothi Painting, Modest Geyser today! It says "That item may not be laundered at a fence." when I attempt to launder it.

Tried different fences and there was no difference - still could not be laundered.

Addons enabled or disabled made no difference.

PC-NA if that matters...

Nothing in today's patch notes!

Having same issue =( Looted Velothi waterfall painting from a safebox and now can't do anything with it since it's stolen and I can't launder it. I believe this bug is across the board - PC, Xbox and PlayStation (screenshots here show PC, and I've personally encountered it on Xbox, assuming it's also on Playstaion). I've contacted support, which so far has resulted in me explaining the issue twice because apparently they thought I didn't know how stolen items/fences work and not that it's broken o.O Here's to hoping that this can get fixed eventually

No rush, can't fit anything more in my house anyway.

Sort of lost interest in housing anyway. Half way through completing it & bam no space....

Omega_Cumulonimbus

Skipped over by another patch. Surely this has been impacting more people than those who have posted in this thread. Unfortunately this along with the abysmal drop rate of new furnishing recipes has caused me to lose interest in housing as well-which is a major investment by game developers as well as a major aspect of ESO...very unfortunate indeed...

I made a thread of this same issue a few weeks ago. Got a new Velothi Painting, Classic Wardenfall that cannot be laundered.

Why isn't this being fixed?... The entire tier of loot is rendered useless.

magicsprout

There are still items from homestead mushroom firnishings looted from alchemists with the same issue. They are aware of the issue but do nothing

FinchRevolution

I've run into the same issue. Please fix it! I don't want to lose my painting after all those hours of trying to get one.

Shamisa_En

SO, the paintings are STILL broken. Really nice.

kwisatz

bump (now it's 2 useless paintings I'm carrying in my bag)

Lady Raven 7

I have the same problem and I put in a ticket as well. I hope they fix it.

Once you place the items in a house, they can't be taken from you if your caught by a guard.

That is one way to make sure they are kept until you can launder them like you want to.

NVM, stupid game mechanic that requires you to launder them before you can use them

Lady Raven 7

You can't place the item in your house if it's stolen. It states you have to launder it first before you can place it.

@Lady Raven 7

Seriously? Dumbest thing I have ever heard. How do you RP an Art Thief?

Lady Raven 7

I Don't understand what your saying, you can talk to me without being so rude. I have had this item in my inventory for months and can't do anything with it because I can't launder it.

I was not refering to you and what you stated. I was refering to ZOS not allowing the stolen stuff to be used in a house. That is the idea which is dumb.

Sorry if I unintentionally offended you. Besides, you did not state an idea, you corrected me on how the game works. I had thought I had put a stolen item in my house before, but maybe I had not.

Lady Raven 7

Oh ok, sorry I didn't understand where it was the comment directed to. Thank you.

And a month later...

• Add Velothi Painting, Modest Waterfall to the list

According to a friend who is currently on the PTS and was experiencing the same issue with un-launderable items stated these items will be fixed come August and the new DLC. So keep your fingers crossed and hope it remains so once it hits!
