What Happened to These Premium Assistants?

Ch4mpTW

Does anyone know what happened to the "premium" banker and merchant? Any information about them would be appreciated, as they were datamined a long time ago (as well as Akaviri costumes and white tiger mount ).

Here they are:

It was confirmed that they had no extra function, cosmetic only and everyone lost interest i think.

Banker with guild bank / store would get my Crowns today.

I see... And yeah, agreed. I currently only have the banker, but if a new and improved banker were released (that had access to guild banks and stores), I'd buy another 1 in an instant. And since I currently don't have the merchant (although I'm planning on buying 1 during the next crown sale), I'd definitely go about buying the premium as my first merchant.

I'm waiting on that new merchant, because the one currently in the store always looks like she's stoned. (It's the creepy smile ...)
I've learned that whenever something is datamined, there's no guarantee it'll come out even within a year of being datamined. It takes them forever to release things.

They are just different artworks to so hopefully they give existing owners both looks.

As far as their release, ideally it should come if they expand the assistants features....maybe Q4 after dungeon dlc.

I seriously doubt that. You buy one cat mount, you don't get all cat mounts. Even though most of them are just different artwork.

Would also be nice if the Banker didn't keep closing the window I'm still using because he feels like moving a few metres.

*for this, I'd like to be able to rename him *** Head and put him in a dress.

They will be in the next pay to win "chapter" called Bankers and Merchants. For $40 you will get the option to buy each for 15000 crowns. For $60 you can own the super duper deluxe edition which comes with a lock of Wrobel's hair.

Do it Wrobel, only good things can come from overpricing stuff right?

I'm seeing the lack of access to guild traders as a 'bug'.
I paid 5000 crowns for an ugly and mostly useless turd, who continually relocates to a point of maximum inconvenience.

Fix this ugly MOFO; I ain't buying another one.

So much salt in this thread.

Not sure what happened with them, seeing as there is no real benefit to them over the others and how ZOS somewhat realise we're not happy when they do jacked prices for nothing useful they may have been put on the back burner.

TBH I think they should just add them via the housing decorator as alternate options, maybe cheaper as they can't be removed from the house?
