Hunter's Glade Showcase (New Wolfhunter House)

It looks awesome, but I'm sure it will be like the houses in Zo$'s new housing model, 18k furnished, limited time, Crown Store only, not available with gold.

Wow. Looks like one of the best designs yet. I even like the eerie haze.

One thing I noticed missing which maybe is just me, but wildlife would be nice. Any chance we would be able to buy some deer to see roaming around? Even if we couldn’t kill them, it would just add a little something. Again, I might be the only one who wants that, so not a huge concern. Just was curious if such a thing would be availble to buy.

I agree. It is in Hircine's Hunting Ground and there is nothing to hunt.

Ah, yes. The seventy dollar pity prize for players who wanted werewolf to be a toggle.

"Hey, we couldn't give werewolf players any of the things they actually wanted. Perhaps we should make a statement about that and tell them we're going to be trying to do that in an upcoming patch to make it up to the--"
"NONSENSE! We're going to sell them a $70 house where they can have their permanent werewolves and they'll love us for it! See, intern! If we monetise their desires, we'll be rich!"
"I don't think this is how you monetise desires. I think to do that you'd want to add a system of custom looks for the werewolf, with the first on offer being the werewolf behemoth for a hefty price tag, then others arriving later. That's wh--"
"NONSENSE! Utter nonsense! What they like is expensive, oversized houses!"

ZOS is so out of touch I can't help but make fun of it.

I ponied up for Earthtear and don't regret it for a minute. I love that property and have done some really cool stuff with it. I've bought six other houses in-game and love those as well. I've loved all the limited-time houses and seriously considered buying each and every one of them (although, TBH, my two favorite "special"/ limited-time houses were the first two: Grand Topal and Tel Galen), but this is the bottom line for me: I'm not spending $70-$110 on another digital house until/unless they increase the furnishing cap. It doesn't make sense to buy another ginormous property that I can't adequately furnish. IMO the only justification for spending that much money on something that isn't real is if it provides hours and hours and hours of entertainment. Having a property with a ton of potential that you can't realize because there's a stupid furnishing cap is... not entertaining. There are soooo many other things I want to do with my Earthtear, but I'm at my cap. It's a real bummer. If ZoS would increase the furnishing cap (or better yet, get rid of a cap altogether), I would throw so much of my money at them for all of their houses.

But yeah, this place is gorgeous. Increase the furnishing cap, ZoS, and I'll buy it!

I agree, was running around the place last night and thought it would be great if we had prey to chase. Even if it was only ghostly forms of deer and such, it would be pretty cool, let us hunt!

I would like to mention also, that when you leave the house, you are exactly 15 seconds ride away from the werewolf shrine! Very handy port to go and share the gift of Hircine!

I agree that the furnishing cap needs to be increased a little, 100 to 200 more would be so nice.

Yeah, I have to say the placement of this house was sheer genius.

Yeah, I'd also like to have possibility to put there something better than couple of mudcrabs. No, I like mudcrabs as house decoration... but Hircine will be disappointed!

Ananoriel

It looks beautiful, and I like those Autumn-themed colours. The location is wellthought as well, I like it.

A shame that it is a Crown Store only house again. It will be incredibly expensive I am afraid...

For werewolf guild that would be best guildhall that ever can be )
Unlimited in time all-in-werewolf-form party...

My werewolf guild are excited

I would totally buy it if i could use my gold because it's actually really pretty and they clearly did a remarkable job. Sadly, I can't give money to a company that values cosmetics more than actual performance issues. #FeelsBadMan

I sincerely think and hope it will be less than the Grotto&Co....

The Psijic Villa will e super expensive for sure. However, Hunger reminds more of Coldharbour (which was around 5k crowns) as it is more of a blank state space with some trees than a super elaborate houses.

I would say somewhere around 9k, in between Corldharbour and other big houses? Would be really disappointed (although maybe not surprised) it it was on the 15k price tag....

That's a good point actually, there's a lot of trees and open space etc, just like the Coldharbour one. But there is one build up part in the entrance however. We will just have to wait and see

Two questions if anyone knows when is it suppose to be for sell and can you remain in werewolf form permanently without the timer running out i went and previewed it and turned into a werwolf while i was previewing it and it didn't let me stay in werewolf not sure if when you purchase it might be different

Hi all,

I am now a proud owner of Hunters Glade. Quick question? How do you transform into werewolf form "permanently" while inside the house. I have to have my Ultimate bar full, and then I do not remain in form.

What am I missing?

Thank you!

Only works while in the glade portion not the foyer

As a WW I am somewhat tempted to get this, as I have a load of crowns in my account from when I used to sub. I did look at the preview, and I think it's a great looking place, but it also feels somewhat lacking, I'm thinking that it ought to have some wildlife running about etc, to feel more alive.

I guess it's a useful port to the shrine if guildies want a bite, but am struggling to find other utility in it. It's 10k crowns furnished, so in real terms, I think that's about 50 quid, although as I say the crowns are simply stacked in my account doing nothing from old subs.

However, there's no denying that it's one of the few homes where ZOS seem to have done a pretty good job, e.g. I got the free Psijic Villa and ultimately feel that is a bit 'meh'.

So the red haze is always there?

That's why I have no interest in the property.

Glaiceana

@csbeau1969 Yes it only works for the actual hunting grounds once you go through the portal

Also I would like to point out to everyone, its 8k crowns unfurnished, 10k furnished. But the furnished version comes with the new Hircine statue, which is twice the size of the old one, a different position, AND costs 2500 crowns on its own!
Not everyone would be bothered by this, but if you wanted this house and the new awesome statue, its actually saving you some crowns!
