Clockwork crafting stations

Czeri

Having recently purchased the Observatory I've decided to try and furnish it in a matching style. But when I opened the store and looked at the prices, I nearly choked. Did you guys see that? One crafting station is 3,500 crowns, so you'd need a whopping 25,500 crowns for all of them (including an outfit station for 4,500)! And after all that, you wouldn't even have a whole set, because there is no clockwork jewellery station available. That's insane! That's double the price of the house!

To be fair, the vanilla crafting stations are also eye-wateringly expensive with 3000 crowns each, but no one in their right mind would ever spend any money on them when they are easily available through gameplay.

I think it's high time crafting stations got bundled together and heavily discounted. Otherwise I just don't see how anyone would ever buy them...

I've always felt a lot of the Crown Store stuff was priced spit-in-your-face insultingly high, but yeah... you've pretty much found some of the most egregious stuff around, right there. Shameful.

The only advice I can offer is, don't buy them with crowns. Grind up the gold, and get what you need through TRUSTWORTHY (especially for such large purchases!) Crown sellers. It'll take forever unless you're rolling Scrooge McDuck-ing in gold, but it's doable in-game, at least.

You can buy crafting stations from Guild Traders for gold. You can also buy them from the Master Writ Vendors. I've never purchased any from the Guild Store.

Most generic crafting stations (PC NA) are around 35K Gold except for the Jewelry station which goes for around 120K Gold.

You can also get the Transmute station with gold or with Writ Vouchers.

Good luck with your house!

But not the Clockwork versions, which is what OP is talking about. Unless I'm mistaken, these are Crown-exclusive items; only purchasable through the in-game housing store. (At an outrageous price for the full set.)

Totally agree! I’ve bought Crown houses and furnishing packs and splurged on some houseguests and furnishings I really like, but the Crown price of crafting stations is just absurd! I think 1k Crowns might be reasonable and still a significant investment if you wanted the whole set. I once started a thread about a Clockwork jewelry station not being available but at these prices, whatever.

I would LOVE to see more styles of crafting stations added like the Elsweyr grill for master writs!

Yep. I'd buy them at a reasonable price, but this is utter madness.
