No Wolfhunter Motifs?

Jolipinator

I thought Dungeon DLCs were given new motifs one update after their release. Or is there some other timeframe?

They are waiting until the new crown crate season

From the PTS patch notes:

Crafting Motifs
During this PTS cycle, we’re introducing several new Motifs for testing. Note that only one of these will be included in Murkmire’s launch, with the others being released later.

The Dead-Water Motif will be available when Murkmire launches. Chapters can be obtained occasionally from completing Delve, Village, and Group Boss Daily Quests in Murkmire.
The Style Item for the Dead-Water style, Crocodile Leather, is available from the same sources.

The Silver Dawn Motif will be available later this year, after Update 20 is released. The Chapters can be obtained by completing Moon Hunter Keep, becoming more likely with higher difficulties of the dungeon, up to being guaranteed to drop on Veteran Hard mode.
The Style Item for the Silver Dawn style, Argent Pelts, is obtained by killing bosses in Moon Hunter Keep, with a greater chance to drop on Veteran than on Normal.

The Elder Argonian Motif will be available after the new year. Chapters can be obtained occasionally from completing Delve, Village, and Group Boss Daily Quests in Murkmire - just like the Dead-Water Motif.
The Style Item for the Elder Argonian style, Hackwing Plumage, is available from the same sources.

Finally, the Huntsman Motif will be available in Q1 next year. The Chapters can be obtained by completing the March of Sacrifices, becoming more likely with higher difficulties of the dungeon, up to being guaranteed to drop on Veteran Hard mode.
The Style Item for the Huntsman style, Bloodscent Dew, is obtained by killing bosses in the March of Sacrifices, with a greater chance to drop on Veteran than on Normal.

In all seriousness they are probably scheduling the in-game motif drops based on the crown store calendar, which is probably set by some more important unit of the company than the one that is in charge of motifs. Since now they release motifs in the store and the game at the same time.

That is very strange.

1 Murkmire motif now
1 Wolfhunter later this year
1 Murkmire in 2019
1 Wolfhunter in 2019

So people will have to either grind Murkmire dailies twice, or wait until next year to try and stack them.

Like I said, it's probably Crown store related. I doubt they're thinking about what players will actually have to do in-game to get the motifs but rather basing the releases on having certain ones available for sale at certain times based on $$ reasons.
