The_Sadist✭✭✭✭✭I just found one in Wayrest
It's quite rare and worth quite a bit, I've yet to actually snag one despite playing for over a year."Each event is preceded by Prophecy. But without the hero, there is no Event." ― Zurin Arctus, the Underking.Tragrim - How do I work this thing?

✭Very. I loot almost everything and have played for a long time and have never seen one. I've seen several purples, but never an Imperial.0 -
The_Sadist✭✭✭✭✭What's the average price for them?
I imagine it varies depending on your platform and megaserver.Edited by The_Sadist on June 24, 2015 12:41PM"Each event is preceded by Prophecy. But without the hero, there is no Event." ― Zurin Arctus, the Underking.Tragrim - How do I work this thing?

Caesar Tantalia✭✭✭For one reason or another Motifs RNG hates me. I have been playing this game since June 2014, leveled main to v14 (completionist) and started several alts, checking almost all containers along the way and I have never received any of the special motifs, let alone the imperial one ... On the other hand, I do have 4 Valkyn Skora light helmets lol0 -

Same here. Though my first I found fairly early on.

It took me forever to get my first light Valkyn Skoria light helmet, I think I had 3 mediums and 2 heavies after quite a few runs. I literally unlocked every achievement in that damn place before getting my light divines.. I really can't be bothered trying to farm an infused, it's almost physically painful these days."Each event is preceded by Prophecy.

@Caesar Tantalia , there is rumor that having certain passives unlocked in the crafting lines improve your odds in the background.Caesar Tantalia wrote: »For one reason or another Motifs RNG hates me.

However:
I've found one on my L42 in the first zone and one on my VR14 (quite recently).
Regarding the helms...that's the only one I do not have at all, (let along half a dozen of them - like the others).
You need a motif. I need a helm...trade ya?
(Note: two of the special motifs are not findable until you get to the gold zone, however, the imperial can pop up anywhere.)

✭Playing since early access, I found 4 so far. But I loot every single container I come across.
In the end, I kept one for myself, gifted another to a friend, and sold the other 2 on zone chat for 40k each.Edited by Khenarthi on June 24, 2015 8:46PMPC-EU0 -

✭✭✭✭✭RNG - different for everyone.
I have personally found 3 or 4 since launch. Although, I have never found a Daedric motif, and have only found 1 ancient elf motif. Never found a primal, but found two barbaric.

Elephant42✭✭✭✭Been playing since Feb '15 and have found 3 Imperial motifs, 2 Dwemer fragments and none of the other purple motifs.
It goes without saying that I have zero Psijic Ambrosia fragments...

lsneakl✭✭✭Is the armor all lore appropriate? Or just made up by ZOS?
Reason I ask is if its made up it would be cool to have 2/3 alternatives for each race to get more variety out in the world.

murmur✭✭✭Been playing from early access and haven't found a single Imperial motif. Although, I have never found Breton motif either, so their rarity must be same...1 -
traigusb14_ESO2✭✭✭✭✭found 0 since beta.. no ancient elf either... lots of barbaric lots of daedric
I swear I find at least 2 nords a day though.0 -
found 1 since beta
Now my question is,if I buy the imperial upgrade from crown store does my account learn the motif automatically?Because I still have the imp motif i looted but right now i need gold very bad so i may sell it or not depending on the answer to my question.0 -
