Mages Guild/Fighter's Guild/Undaunted will be next.Unlocking the achievement should allow you to purchase the points with gold as well.
Regardless, this is the beginning of more *** to come. Seen it time and time again with MMOs, this is just Zenimax testing the waters. Expect worse things from the CS in the future.
@Elara_Northwind I'm not disrespecting your opinion. I agree it is a d!ck move. I've put in this thread my opinion several times, and I do believe that it sets the door ajar for more crown offers that walk a tighter line. However, I disagree that the many things that are already (ergo unnecessary for crown) account wide will follow.
I switched to pc from console 28 days ago. I'm cp 300 already with no overland questing; on my original xbox account it took me 4 years to hit cp 810. The catch up mechanic is in such force that my 4 year effort is undone in essence. The game has evolved to cater for the disparity of leveling vs cp... And skyshards, originally intended to reward exploration of zones, that intent obsolete by one tamriel, are the next mechanic addressed. If crown only, disgusted, if crown or gold, I can get behind the change...

They already said on the stream today, it is going to be a crown store purchase. I have played since beta, and every year more and more questionable content is added to the crown store. It's sad. I love this game and it's turning into something ugly.

The biggest problem with this thread is that pay to win has different meanings to different players and the majority of the thread is spent arguing with each other over who’s definition is right.
We should be more focused on whether we feel like this is a dirty underhanded tactic from ZOS or whether this is acceptable.
I have collected every skyshard in the game on my main character. It took a lot of time and a lot of patience. I am glad that I have the option to not have to do it again another 12 times. It is definitely NOT pay to win!
