I got like 2 in the past month after never seeing one before. I don't do writs on all my characters though.

I was trying to buy some nirnhoned wood stuff this weekend and I could only find it in one place out of the 5 or 6 places I checked: Mournhold. It was ironically all priced at 23K gold. And I thought the guild vendor system was supposed to stop price fixing.

That was on the PS4 EU server. I regularly find such pieces on the PS4 NA server for <15K when I need them (past few months) with lots of price variation.

I agree with the idea of buying trait items from guild vendors, but finding one that has it at a reasonable price may be a big challenge.

Most wood items are weapons, which means potent nirncrux. The trait stone itself runs 12k or so on PC/NA. Combine higher prices on your platform and I think those prices are understandable. Idk how you were getting weapons for much less, unless you were getting shields and not paying attention.

No, it was not all shields. Most were in Alinor since that is where I base my character that has researched all woodworking traits, including nirnhoned.

It was odd that no one else had any listed (Alinor, Wayrest, and a couple other places). Though the exact 23K price match in Mournhold was even more surprising. Most prices will be off by at least 1 gold, as people try to undercut each other. This was clearly some kind of collusion. Up to them of course, but another thing that demonstrated that the current system sucks compared to a central AH where I could have quickly found what I wanted (or found it was too expensive) and could have gotten back to playing the rest of the game.
