Golden Just Rings?? Why...

AnnieK

This is the second weekend in a row that the Golden vendor is JUST RINGS? Why?

SeaGtGruff

There was a mention of the Golden in the announcement for the Whitestrake's Mayhem event, so I imagine things will be back to normal next week:

Bonus Resources & The Golden

Players making use of harvesting nodes during the Whitestrike Mayhem event will loot extra resources. Additionally, the Cyrodiil merchant Adhazabi, “The Golden” Aba-daro will update her shop’s stock to contain jewelry from Cyrodiil’s item sets, in CP160 Legendary quality. Aba-daro’s Bazaar will offer valuable necklaces during the first weekend of the event and rare rings during the second.

Note that during Whitestrake’s Mayhem, Aba-daro will not be selling Monster Masks and all purchases in her shop must be made with Alliance Points. She will not accept gold.

The first weekend offers gold cyrodiil necklaces; the second weekend offers gold cyrodiil rings. It's like that at every Mayhem event. When Mayhem is over golden vendor goes back to its regular rng offerings.

I got necklaces last weekend. How did you get rings last weekend?

It's interesting to note that not all of the PvP sets are available, either. Just the ones ZOS wants you to have.

There are golden jewels for some sunsetted sets like Spell Strategist and Steadfast Hero that no longer drop, but ones they don't want you to have, like Plaguebreak and Dark Convergence are not available on The Golden.

SeaGtGruff

I would imagine they're selected randomly, or perhaps even on some kind of rotation that spans all past, present, and future WM/MYM events, similar to how it apparently works with the monster sets.

During MYM

Week 1: Necklaces
Week 2: Rings

Looks like you missed out

OP is either mistaken, or is a time traveler and doesn't know it yet

SeaGtGruff

I think the OP meant jewelry-only last weekend and again this weekend. I doubt they really meant rings last weekend, but had either honestly misremembered, or saw rings-only this weekend and figured it must have been the same thing last weekend because although it was actually necklaces-only their brain had registered the fact that it was jewelry-only and hadn't really registered that it was all necklaces.

AnnieK

Thanks all and yes I usually just scroll past any jewelry so didn't notice that it was necks.... I should probably be more excited about it but I'm just more interested in the monster sets.

Is this your first Mayhem?

AnnieK

Not a PVP fan...much prefer PVE and pretty much exclusively play PVE. I don't do 'twitchy' stuff - hand arthritis makes it almost impossible

about 1/2 way down this page you'll see the golden info https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/64081

I was really disappointed too. I see PVP folks often expressing that they're overlooked, don't get enough content etc though so I just grit my teeth and wait for the other stuff to be back.

The same items are available to everyone at the same time.

Thanks for clearing that up.
