Eclectic Decorator Achivement: lock behind Crowns?

myskyrim26

Today I wanted to do an Eclectic Decorator Achivement on my alt. I already did it on my crafter some time ago, and it was easy. But what I see now? Here's a list of Miscellenious items, and they all seem to be Crown Store items:

Soul-Shriven, Armored
Soul-Shriven, Robed
Blue Butterfly Flock
Emerald Candlefly Gathering
Mists of the Hag Fen
Monarch Butterfly Flock
Shadow Tendril Patch
Sea Sload Astral Nodule, Large
Sea Sload Astral Nodule, Small
Sea Sload Neural Tree, Active
Transliminal Rupture
Webs, Cone
Webs, Thick Sheet

All craftable items like Hlaalu Hanger, that used to be Miscellenious, are now different cathegory! Hlaalu Hanger is Gallery now.

So, an achivement is locked? Please, clarify @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS

I went looking through fansights, and looks like there are some achievement based furnishings and a few crafted ones that are part of miscellaneous category, at least according to ESO fashion.

They are no more Miscellenious. For example: Harvester’s Herbs. This items WAS miscellenious, but now it is Hearth, Stockroom. It doesn't count as miscellenious. Same for Pocket Change and all other miscellenious items. All Miscellenious items now are Crown Store, I posted a list from uesp....

If you've already done it do you have the furnishings still? They don't need to be different, you just need to travel to the house that contains them with the new character I believe

Find a Hlaalu Hanger, Mounted recipe and craft a bunch of them. It's a green Vvardenfell recipe that you can find for pretty cheap in traders.

I do have them all in my house. The problem is these items are different cathegory now. They are no more Miscellenious. Pocket Change was Miscellenious. Now it is Parlor.

I just crafted one. It was under Miscellenious cathegory when crafted, but the item itself is Gallery in my inventory.

Whoa, really? That's new information for me. I unlocked the achievement years ago. It may have been changed since then.

It makes sense where these items were reassigned to so I’m glad the categorization of those furnishings was updated. I think the achievement needs to be redesigned.

I crafted 20 Hlaalu Hangers. Placed. No achivement.

Oh that sucks. Here is a list of the crafted things that are miscellaneous in the crafting menu, no guarantee they will be in the housing menu tho.

Breton Tablecloth, Blue
Breton Tablecloth, Striped
Hlaalu Hanger, Mounted
Hlaalu Towels, Folded
Indoril Bellows, Practical
Redoran Mantle Cloth, Crimson Cover
Redoran Mantle Cloth, Crimson Coverlet

File a bug report in game as well. They claim it’s their preferred way of receiving them.

It’s definitely a bug that items are different categories at the crafting station than in a home. And it really does suggest they did this without thinking through the consequences in terms of achievements if they didn’t even update the crafting menu categories.

I just tried 20 Hlaalu Hangers - no achivement. They are Gallery items. @ZOS how can an Achivement be locked behind Crown Store?

Submitted a ticket #210329-004118. We'll see if I get any answer.

Honestly it's not the first time furnishing get different crafting and placement categories. Hlaalu Bath Tub, Masterwork is a Suite item that is crafted in Undercroft menu.

There used to be a lot more items in the miscellaneous category.

They got re-assigned "cleaned-up" and put into other categories

The achievement wasn't updated to compensate.

I'm sure it's just an oversight. Now as to when it'll be fixed... Would be nice to hear a confirmation for other fellow achievement hunters. (I got mine years ago, but others should have equal access from in-game items)

Found the list of all ex-miscellaneous items that were moved to other categories in patch notes: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/7154050/#Comment_7154050
Starting at

The following housing items have been moved from Miscellaneous > General into other housing categories:

That's pretty much everything and it looks to be intentional.


@ZOS_GinaBruno Will the new Miscellaneous items, obtainable by in-game means, be added in the future? Will the conditions for the achievement be revised?

So my initial thought is confirmed - the Achievement is locked behind Crown Store.

This is so god damn frustrating... I just wanted to do the achievement and would I have done it a month earlier, all would be fine...

Could you also submit a ticket in-game? The more tickets, the more hope to get @ZOS attention

spartaxoxo

We need to keep this thread at the top til we get an answer

twisterior

Well. No update this patch... Guess they are to busy with the Wrothgar Relic Hunter Fix :P

ZOS_GinaBruno

Hey everyone, we can confirm this achievement should not be locked behind Crown Store purchases and we're working on getting it fixed.
