Outfit station costs.

Tapio75

I just made a new Khajit and proceeded to make an outfit for him.. From basic Khajit styles and colors i have unlocked over years.

Had to pay almost 5 k gold which was all i had and my friend who just started to play, do not have even a chance to use the station with these costs.

..Unless using a outfit token...

I also checked a single piece cost. Changing a shpoulder slot to another Khajit style as a khajit costs lsomething over 900 gold.

I am pretty sure, that basic styles were cheap back when i last played. Did not even have to pay 1k to change to an outfit style of the characters race with some colors added.

Have the greed leveled up since i last played? Have the prices been upped to sell these stupid tokens?

I do not think this is okay at all. If and when gold sinks are needed, they are not supposed to be punishing to new players or as a marketing ploy to sell some stupid tokens.

They are still cheap. 50-150 each piece. 50 for dyes, 150 for dyes set of 3. You did something very wrong and didn't notice. Maybe applied dye to weapons, those cost 300(or is it 350?) Each. Also, weapon styles are more expensive 300-500 or so for basic, unsure of exact value.

Nothing changed since launch.

Odd.. I just checked again. I made my shoulder as a Khajit light armor type 1 and the cost went from 0 to 980 gold O.o

I did knew the weapons cost more and all that but i have considered the cost always very cheap as i mostly use standard motif styles of low level armor. Only thing i had non-Khajit was a hat, which i made a Bosmer light armor type 1 since its a great leather hood for a thief. Maybe i just relog and look again.

To put this in some perspective, the cost of a custom appearance for an item slot is roughly what you get from a single daily crafting writ. If you (as a player, not the individual character) don't do crafting, then you probably aren't collecting the styles for the outfits. So a complete outfit costs two days' crafting work. And that appearance stays the same, even when you collect other gear that it's hiding. You don't have to re-work a slot because you got a replacement piece that's better. Your outfits sets your appearance regardless. Two days crafting writs pays for an outfits that last forever. The materials for the equipment it conceals almost certainly cost more, and you'll upgrade when the meta changes, at more cost.

I’m in the game now. On a lvl 3 Khajiit changing his found armor in the outfit station to base game Khajiit armor.

Shoulders, hands, waist and boots cost 50 gold to change without color. Chest, head, and Legs cost 100 gold. Each color slot costs 50 gold.

I’m at 1200 gold with all slots filled with color except head and weapons. If you are using the color bucket icon it is filling your weapons too and that will bump up the cost. It will sometimes fill up the back bar if you have one.

Removing items also cost money.
