[Suggestion] Luxury Caravan (new Luxury vendor each year to have new themes)

Mix

So, I love our Luxury vendor BUT with repeating the old items/themes it really limits what can be added. For instance in this cycle we have only TWO new themes (Necromancer and Hircine - upcoming still).

I think having a Luxury Caravan with a new vendor added each year would really up the excitement and allow many more new themes so all the Chapters and DLCs can have at least one theme each.

Going forward new items wouldn't necessarily need to be added to Zanil for each theme, only if there are things missing that can be added (like Wedding theme seems to be almost complete - there is a green variant of the wedding flowers I would love to have but nothing else really jumps out at me for that particular theme)

Also, if contrasting themes are added the items would appeal to a larger amount of the player base!

Eventually I would like to have screenshots added which suggest items for each theme, but it really is a lot of work and I wanted to make sure I got this post out in time for ZoS to consider the idea to add another Luxury vendor in the new year.

I call this a Luxury Caravan because I believe that would be the best way to present it. Each vendor with a cart of goods and each year gets a new vendor + cart!

Other Possible Luxury Themes

Great thread, really well thought out

Aliyavana

The riekling furniture week is something that is just not going to be looked forward to. Some of the weeks should be discontinued and made into regular furnishings as many of them look like stuff you can craft.

Dont care how they do it, but we definitely need more items available to purchase.
More NPCs selling new items sounds like a great idea.

Brilliant!

Added Orchard and Apiary Suggestions

This would be great. I do think having some regular furnishing merchants would be grest. Make them like region merchants in Cyrodiil or something. It makes no sense to me to have a basic furnishing merchants that sell, not furnishings, but chopping blocks and carved stone.

Actually, keep those merchants but give them more structural options to purchase! I'd love to build my own buildings with more options

Brilliant idea! And I really like some of your theme suggestions. I'm hopeful that we'll get some summerset themed items in the future, as well as some for the DLCs that have not yet been represented (plus, we've had far too much for Orsinium).

While I do appreciate them recycling the themes for those that missed them the first time around (and I was really excited for the early ones that I missed when I didn't have enough gold), it's been somewhat less exciting to go to the luxury vendor for the one or two new items he'll have.
