Maythor✭✭✭✭It was 2400 crowns each, reduced from the original 4000.
Personally I don't understand the management of the Crown Store either. I presume they are trying tactics to get people to buy as many items, and with little thought or ability to plan purchases as possible, in order to maximize revenue with enforced rarity and shock sales .. but in practice it makes me mistrust the whole operation.
I suppose the system is what it is, and I doubt they are going to change, so we just have to keep an eye out when things come up for sale.

✭✭2400 is still too much for what you get. If you are into testing DPS, which I guess most people that buy mundus stones for their homes are, you need at least 3 (Thief, Shadow and Lover). Without discount all three cost as must as the biggest houses.

✭✭✭✭✭Back in my day picking your Birthsign was an irrevocable choice and we LIKED it!These short sales are really annoying. I understand that discounting something or only making it available for a short time is an effective sales tactic to get people to buy instead of telling themselves they might get it later or wait for an even better deal.
But IMO ZOS takes it too far - the sales are too short and it's very easy to miss them, which I suspect results in lower sales over all.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

It's listed as the last item (Mundus Stone Sale!) in the March Crown Store Showcase.
I've made it a habit to read those every month because you kinda have to if you don't want to miss anything (or if you enjoy getting a rage headache at the timing and teeny, tiny durations of the limited-time sales).0 -

yes, these super short sales is such a smart move, 3/4 of the playerbase isn't even aware when they are on and they lose a lot of potential buyers. Brilliant.

BringerOfOmens✭✭✭I had been waiting for those to go on sale, found out about the sale the day after it was over. Oh well.
These games and their lack of in-game notifications for things. Check out our twitter, but it might be twitch, oh yeah, its on the website this time, it was in a forum post under cat/subcat...etc.
No one source of information. Of well, just means me spending less money so I guess I wont really complain.4 -

Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
- Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
- Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).
