    Confirmed. Kena helms for everyone now!

    Maybe you will find another reason to buy future DLCs? Or you'll save a few bucks.
    Happy All the Holidays To You and Yours!

    The game as a whole shouldn't be altered based on DLC's. If they start down that path, it punishes all players, those that buy the DLC and those that don't. Why should those that own the DLC's not have vendor access to those two helms just so ZoS can stick it to those that didn't buy? I'd sooner see a game that doesn't bend itself in order to sell DLC and instead bases it's decisions on what's good for the game and lets the DLC's sell themselves based on merit.

    Speaking as someone that's farmed WGT to death and has a mule full of helms I'll never use, I say let everyone have access through the pvp vendor. The consistency is better for the game overall.

    Yep, got the Kena helm (finally) in all 3 weights for various alts. Wish I did the same for shoulders, it never clicked at the time that other alts of mine might actually use it at some point :S

    How long ago was the Imperial City DLC released again? Nine, ten months ago or so?

    I think we had enough time to farm Kena. And even so, not every subscriber or DLC owner succeeded on acquiring a Kena Helm, so they have the option of buying it from the vendor too.

    I see no issue.
    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.

    There are those that subscribe for a few months are lucky enough to get it then might let their subscription lapse. I am basically trying to say there are people without the content with it anyway, I have run with people who have it but don't have DLC but subscribed previously.

    Molag Kena helm (infused) on sale at Cyrodiil vendor this weekend - so no, you don't strictly need to have bought the DLC.
    That said, people who did buy the DLC got a lot of fun and interesting experiences, as well as easier access to vr16 potency runes etc (via Tel Var Stones), more skill points/skyshards etc. It's not just about the special set items.

    I don't think this matters that much, how long has the vendor been there now and the helm only just appeared?

    How many months have we had IC and Kena helms before anyone else can get them this way? Sure if you don't want to buy DLC and miss the other 90% of the items and wait months for a helm drop... I'll just buy the DLC and go get it now thanks. :tongue:

    I'm hoping for a Lord Warden Helm one day. That thing still hasn't dropped for me....

    On the topic of those without the Imperial City DLC buying a Kena Helm..... do you actually care that much? C'mon. Big deal if others get this. I farmed WGT like crazy and have three Kena helms, two of which are perfect.

    Seriously, as long as Master/Maelstrom weapons aren't sold at a vendor it is not an issue people.

    idk. Im salty about it. isnt thatnwhy they nerfed wgt in the firstn place? I know its messed up, but I always kinda saw it as a status symbol. My first one was heavy divines.
    \I dont mind it being sold (id rather see a token system though). I guess what I'm just saying is, it devalues dungeons. At least make it so you need the completion achievement for it. ps4 na darkshade used to be ran soooo much it was always easy to find a group. Now I know ,many still farm for it, but nowI hardly ever see it pop for cue. with icp being tanked, districts possibly zerged, wgt/prison nerfed, repora being vendorable, and lastly, kena being sold, whays the point ij this dlc? its the oldest dlc yes, but its the one I use the most.

    Thieves guild was a joke, db looks like a joke.. idk.

    I know many are probablt excited about this, but I just cant see it this way at all.

    Status symbol? LOL. I've looted almost 30 Kena helms. Divines in all three weights. And I don't use it because it's not that good of a helm. Templars and DKs are better off with Skoria. Sorcs and Nightblades do better with Nerien'eth. I do keep a 2p Kena set on my sorc, but I rarely end up using it--shaving a few seconds off of an Overload boss fight usually isn't worth the hassle to swap to it and then swap from it.

    The Kena helm I got from vWGT, heavy with well-fitted, is somehow worth more to me than the ones for sale...
    I felt proud to get it.
    The sale depreciates its value but hey - that's how the world of Tamriel goes round.

    Good point, OP. Guess we don't actually need DLC afterall, to buy the items from it, which isn't too bad I suppose.

    Really tho', Zenimax...? I ran VWGT 200+ times before my first ever Molag Kena helmet (which dropped in medium with a well-fitted trait), and now you put it up there for any random Joe to buy with either AP or gold? Really? That's how you feel...?

    At least... At least no one who has enough AP to buy it, or gold, will have to deal with the horrendous RNG for the helmet... I can say I'm happy about that, as I don't want someone to suffer just because I had to.
