Dibella furnishing pack

CaffeinatedMayhem

First - another great (worth it!) furnishing pack, thanks ZOS! I'm not that into Dibella so I won't be buying, but...

Why are the flowers etc in this pack not in the Crown Home Store? I loved them on the PTS, and want some for Dawnlight Palace. Any ETA on when those will be added @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

They'll probably make their way to the Crown Store eventually...

After you've bought the Dibella pack to get those flowers.

CaffeinatedMayhem

lol. The flowers are a good deal, even without the statue, but I don't have 4500 crowns anymore...I bought a house.

Nice to hear you say that you think this pack is worth it. I was slightly dismayed to see that it costs 500 crowns more than the Vivec, Azura, and whatever the pack was that had the Mournful Aegis. I think the Daedric library one was 5000?

In any event, looking forward to checking it out tonight. Definitely have the crowns since no way I'm buying that giant monstrosity. The only CS limited-time house I've purchased is Tel Galen, which was 10k furnished.

I think the mournful Aegis was in a 5000 crown pack rather than 4500 for this one.

I really like the pack.

My one real con:
Dibella is *huge* - a bit too large, actually. I might end up burying her in the ground a bit to get rid of the base.

Pros:
-For garden nuts, it's a must - loooots of flowers and flowering shrubs*.
-There are 2 sets of butterflies: blue and orange. Squee!
-The fountain (that's been on the PTS for ever) is wonderfully plain, elegant, and will go with everything.
-Wisteria everywhere - 4 ivy, 1 massive pergola (again, maybe too big)

Meh:
-I don't need anymore damned Imperial benches. I have a warehouse full of bound Imperial furniture. Add 6 more to the bunch.
-I don't care for the two trees; they lack realism (the blue especially)
-The braziers are, if not identical, very similar to craftables.
-*At least one of the shrubs is available through normal housing vendors

I do wish more flowers were available via gold. Kinda sucks to have them all gated behind crowns. Le sigh.

Anywho! The pack is pretty!

Yep. remember those three cool, unique statues (bull/camel/something) that came with the ra gada pack? Already in the crown store.

Fyi, the Dibella statue is larger than the Prince Hubalajad statue. One of my ongoing housing projects is a three story structure that you die if you jump from the top. Dibella is maybe 40% of the height.

The, um, unclothed portion of the statue is the size of a hillock.

No, I remember it being 4,000 as that was an extremely good price for everything that was included. I remember being surprised, considering it was the same price as the Azura pack and the Vivic pack, both of which had fewer items included.

ETA: I kinda wish now that I had bought it, even though I didn't have anywhere to put most of it and was/still not planning to get the Pricey Palace. Ah well...I see from another post that some of the unique pieces are now in the CS, but I doubt I'd pay the individual prices for them.

This game has a serious lack of flower furnishings, especially ones that fit in pots and vases.

Ok if you say so, but everything i found online about it says 5000, i was checking to see if this was more or not. I know it wouldn't be the first time something online was wrong.

CaffeinatedMayhem

Yes, the Hubalajhad pack was 5k, and I wish I could have bought two.

Here’s mine in Hundings

yeah I'm sad that the flowers and other items aren't sold separately. A lot of the major items in the Dibella pack I don't even want (like the statue and trees), but I would buy plenty of the flowers. 2 flowers per type in the Dibella pack isn't worth it either, even if I had 4.5k crowns to spend.

That's funny. When I looked at it I said to myself, really? Flowers and butterflies just to buy the statue?

If only we could trade <sigh>.

Aimora

I was saying this to my friend with these type of packs do one with the statues for 4500 (which I personally think is a lot of money, but that’s beside the point) and then do alternative plant pack for 2500, without the statues (do you really need 2 of each?) if not allow us to gift parts of the set to others. A final note it’s a shame that the butterflies are so tiny, they look like gnats, it would be better for them to be a little bigger so you could actually see they are butterflies.

Hey, I'd buy if it I could trade the statues for more flowers. I want ALL the flowers in that pack, but I worship Azura not Dibella.

anadandy

At least we can buy this statue outright and it's not locked in the RNG crates like the Hircine statue. I will be forever bitter about that.

Minyassa

I also would've liked to see some of those items in the Crown furnishing store just to get *more* of them, especially the flowery vines.

One note: Are the butterflies supposed to be gnat-sized or am I having some sort of glitch? I placed them and was a bit boggled at how tiny they are, I can barely see them without zooming all the way in. Definitely not the size of regular landscape butterflies.

Ashryn

Love the statue and would have purchased this pack IF the statue wasn't so large. It would be perfect if they issued these packs with a 3 size choice on the statue, since we cannot shrink them to the size we need.

That Dibella statue.....

As others have said, it is far too large. It is more than large. It is massive.

The problem is that there are very few places, if any, to place it where it doesn't dwarf everything else. I've tried it in the grounds of Princely Dawnlight, which is an imposing property by any standards, but even there it doesn't look right. It's not even OK size-wise at the far end of one of the really huge grounds such as Linchal Grand Manor or Forsaken Stronghold. It's just too big.

So please @ZOS, consider downsizing it to about half the size. It'll still look very big even then.

Elsterchen

I love the butterflies ... are they in the crown store as well?

I don't have space for all the stuff, not in my inventory nor my houses, but the butterflies are really really nice. If my furniture caps allow it, i would love to put them everywhere.

i bet someone somewhere even if they dont use the forums bought like 15 of these bundles to make a butterfly sanctuary.

I ended up sinking the statue into the ground. She starts at mid thigh. Still imposing, but not so ridiculously out of proportion.

I sunk half the base into the mountain in Mathiisen and used it as a garden bed. I like the size.

Hope the flowers from the Dibella pack get added to the crown store furnishings later on - a lot more colour and variety of flowers.

As others have mentioned, I was kinda taken aback how large the Dibella statue is.

Great pack though. I love everything in it.

Imryll

I put everything in my level 18 storage coffer because I don't yet own the right house for these, but I think they put together a very nice selection of items. There's really nothing in it that I look at and think, "I'll never use that." I just hope that buying it doesn't end up meaning that I'll have to wait on my next sub renewal to buy the town house.

VaranisArano

If you don't mind the butterflies flying away instead of hovering, the Harvester's shrubs for Alchemy mastery have larger butterflies.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

Will any of the new items in the Dibella's Garden Furnishing Pack be available in the Housing Editor Purchase Tab?

Specifically, the Redguard Fountain, Mosaic, the new (and beautifully colorful) flowers, and the butterflies.

Thanks!

Interesting! So, these shrubs are sold by the Alchemist NPC? And what do you mean by "flying away" exactly?

Also, I quite adore Dibella so her size, to me, is perfect!

love the size of Dibella
