What was zos thinking, don't work in pvp, read somewhere they don't repair etc...

5k crowns.

That 2.5 times more than the TG DLC.

Is zos saying these assistants are 2.5x better than there TG DLC... which was bad btw.

    This....exactly....apparently motif, assistants and some mounts are better than DLC and the whole base game price.

    No idea what logic is going on in their office

    I was SO sad, when I saw the price. I bought 20k crowns, because I wanted to pay 10k for each of them. As I saw that they are super cheap, I made another account and bought them on both accounts.

    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    People need to stop buying these items until ZOS gets the hint and lowers the prices.

    40-50$ for a feature like this, when you can get to any bank or vendor within a couple of minutes tops, is a straight up insult to the intelligence of their player base.

    I'm not saying it's better and I'm not siding with anyone, but they did say:

    If you have read this, then you shouldn't be so disappointed.

    We wouldn't be here if plenty of players hadn't plopped down crowns for so many over-priced items like motifs, riding lessons, well really almost everything in crown store. As long as players keep buying, zos will keep on selling at these prices. Vote with your wallets.

    On the other hand, if you're an ESO Plus subscriber and have been saving up Crowns, a few months worth isn't too bad for the convenience of an assistant. I'd feel more like I was being rewarded for subscribing if I saved up the crowns; not like I was forking over an extra 50 bucks.

    Still, I agree 5,000 is high. 2,500 would be better.

    No idea what logic is going on in their office

    Honestly I think we are thinking about this backwards, if DLC prices hadn't basically been established in other games they would actually charge much much more for DLC's, but the internet would explode.

    If I am to be 100% honest, I do prefer that they put a stupidly high price on some useless stuff that I would never feel tempted to buy than on DLC, so there's that.

    It doesn't mean the assistants aren't absurdly expensive for what little functionality they have.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Um, there are mounts that cost more than TG. And fancy mounts are completely useless vanity items if you already have a horse. Your analysis is very superficial. I see tons of players riding crown store mounts, so the value of crowns must be considered pretty low for people to spend 2k crowns on window dressing.

    The assistants will be useful for long after people have lost any interest in TG. The assistants will bring value for many years.

    Useless motifs cost 5k. There are new motifs every few months such that if you want to use all the motifs you possess, you will probably have to use all your character slots and have each piece be a different motif. Yet some people payed 5k for such motifs.

    If you don't want one, good for you. But enough with the shallow arguments.
