new Motif Refabricated motif 53 ?

mabdastardseb17_ESO

seeing as motif 53: Tsaesci already exists how can the new one also be motif 53 or did somebody forget to tell the motif department we are already at motif 76 before the release of the new refabricated motif. If it is also motif 53 how do I know which motif will be unlocked if I buy the new one or is motif 53 meant to be the lucky/unlucky dip motif.

My guess is that the problem arose due to refabricated being in the game files since Morrowind but hasn't been implemented.

talking about motifs, they did not sell harlekin during the festival.

looks like everything around motifs gets rekt, like undaunted today.

It was originally intended to be the vHoF Motiff drop when morrowind dropped but for whatever reason it just wasn't Implemented at all. Perhaps because of Clockwork city and being very similar to the motiff there and the dwemer motiff, might of been viewed as simply not worth implementing. You know at what point do you regurgitate the same theme over and over? and well, they do these things years in advance so half of the stuff we see now was in development years back most likely development cycles are always years in development prior to actual implementation. They probably were working on it when craglorn dropped and then when morrowind released they just didnt release it for whatever reason. Sad really, I kinda like it.

It's a long shot, but you can poke Customer Support and ask if they'll let you purchase it out of season. It used to be a thing, and, while they've generally moved away from that since the introduction of crates, given the motif is not part of any crate, they may still be receptive. It cost 2200 Crowns as I recall, so make sure you've got that on your account before you begin.

The problem may have started when they did not implement it during Morrowind but the real problem is lack of quality control when nobody noticed it before it was actually released...obviously no motif collectors on staff.

Indeed.

There was also a similar naming duplication snafu with the Honor Guard Jerkins - plural, because there is no Honor Guard Jack.

Reported numerous times on PTS and now on Live. Still not fixed three quarterly updates later, by my count.

Glad to see Refabricated is finally out, but the lack of basic QA and bug fixing is, well, par for the course.

I did report this on the pts, guess they didnt care or see

There were actually 78 motifs in the game, now there are 79.

Technically there's at least 5 more. There's a Nedic motif (you can only see it on NPCs in Craglorn and parts of it on a trio of costumes that also use parts of Celestial and Ra Gada), there's second versions of Ashlander and Wormcult (the old version of Ashlander exists on some costumes and on the Red Mountain Set, Worm Cult may be completely gone, I'm not sure.) There's a second version of Ebony that appears on the Ebon Armory set. There's a second version of Maomer (it appears to be a modified version of Ancient Elf.)

There's also the Mage's Guild motif, which may not be a complete motif. Only light armor versions (with two distinct robe variants) have been seen.

EDIT: Note, none of these are craftable. They simply appear in game, and in most cases are obtainable somehow.

Refabricated should be dropping from HoF too.
