How fast can I get the ice skin

ArgonianAustin

I haven't played in forever and I decided to play on my xbox character for a little bit in PvP and when I died I was bagged by someone with a skin I've been wanting sinve the beginning. So I quickly looked up how to get it, I want it on my main ps4 account. So the question is how fast are these 12 writs you need? Are they easy to craft? Can you get it all done in like 6-8 hours? I never have gold and I think I don't have any crafting materials.
I love ice stuff and of course bought the ice heart style immediately. I'm very lazy so I hope I can get it real quick.

Oops. I made 2 posts. Well let's think of it as double the answers.

It's RNG. I've done the quests multiple times on 15 girls. So far I have 9 writs. This is fine with me, it's an ugly skin and I don't want it anyway.

Maybe someone can send me all the writs!

I got it day one. Which was expensive.

Getting them legitimately could take a few hours. Running all nine event quests on each character should get you enough writs in... roughly 12-16 runs. Now, that's a, "should," the actual odds of a drop being when you want it are never certain.

Buying all the writs will set you back about 200k on PCNA right now. So, doable, but not insane. Not sure what XBNA prices look like, though.

Once you have the writs, the process of actually getting the skin will take less than an hour. The hard part is just getting the charity writs, not doing them. (I think it took me, maybe 20 minutes, once I had the writs.)

If You decide to buy writs for gold , collecting gold required for it can take in best scenario 30 minutes.

Thanks for the replies. I got good info.

Well, not me - I want the writs for other stuff, for instance in the first place, the almost 15k XP on my double-buffed main; and the stuff from the furnishings vendor....

RNGesus must hate you, I only do the dailies on 8 characters, and I always end up with 4-5 writs. Per day. Best money i've ever made in any MMO so fast lol. You are right though, the skin is ugly, I would rather have the extra bank / bag space as a non ESO+ person.

Something worth knowing, though I'm not 100% certain this is correct:

The way the achievement is written, it sounds like writs can be completed out of season. So, if you manage to get, like, six or seven writs done, you can continue to buy them from other sources in the coming months. The only thing that stops when the event ends are new writs dropping.

Also, and I mean this will respect, if you're not attached to the PS4 community right now, you might want to do that. It will give you access to more resources, which can help you with things like this. My only contacts on that platform are via twitch streamers, so you're probably going to need to do the legwork yourself, or jump over to PCNA (assuming you're not in the EU.) Right now, you're literally asking strangers, "hey, can you give me, like 200k worth of goodies?" That's a lot easier sell if you're asking friends who do a lot of PvE.

Yeah, I never have much luck with quests. Now, crates on the other hand.... I'm so far ahead on ZOS on great free stuff they'll never catch up - even now they're not giving any!

I’ll sell you my writs for 25k. Let me get home and get a few. They give me like three a day since I don’t do them. The skin is embarrassing.

If I get the gold. I'll buy them, but I'm pretty darn empty

I have like 7 and I'd just give them to you for free but I'm on PC EU good luck

Ack. Well DAMN. I would have sent you the gold - but I don't do consoles.... and you can't ship stuff cross-platform.

Dang! Thank you though!

You know..... It REALLY sucks when you can't help out a fellow player because of stuff like different platforms. I hope you get the skin without a lot of aggro.... Anyway, happy holidays if possible!
