Why not "vanity items" as rewards?

Right now and with 1Tamriel the dailies rewards are just set pieces and some motifs. The problem is that some of us are not looking to get new sets, yes you can sell them but the market is saturated and there are more profitable ways of making gold. About the motif... what is the point if we can't change the style of previous crafted or already looted gear?
I kinda like doing bosses but after a while it gets repetitive and if you don't like the rewards you just stop. I understand that Zeni is trying to sell stuff via Crown Store, but couldn't we have some other BOP vanity items like mounts, pets, COSTUMES, personalities, etc for the dailies, maybe less spectacular? I'd happily grind for that!!
What do you think?

✭✭✭✭✭It would be pretty nice. If they were a really low drop chance (similar to soul shriven skin) it would keep people playing that content for longer too

Maybe on top of the existing rewards? I don't care much foot vanity items but I have no problem if they are added into loot tables0 -

✭Just no.
You have several free costumes, a polymorph and a pet that come with the base game.
A simple 1 month subscription would grant you even more costumes, polymorphs, skins and several pets.

Your personal motivation is not something ZOS should enforce with vanity items.
If you are tired of dailies, maybe it is time to change your routine?
Did you try trials?
Did you try out Cyrodiil?
Do you run dungeons with guildies?
Did you get all achievements?
Make your own motivation to play, don't expect the developers to hold your hand.0 -

Because what's the point in just releasing content for people to farm, to sell and repeat and never actually anyone uses, half the game is still in glass Tbs as who can be arsed to pay for 40 waxes and another 680 silks / leather etc again. Motif farming / rewards are so tedious and boring. If we could sell soul shriven amd stonefish scamp that would be something else. We'd all have been on it a lot lot more. We need something else from dailies other than motifs which imo all look the same bar weapons and helms these days, several pieces can't be used as who uses crafted helms and shoulders and weapons really?
More vanity items needed. And hard to get ones that are super cool like the horvar and soul shriven skin / dro m'artha skin.
Soth skins were all farmed on cp10 alt accounts in 3hrs.
Not all of us want to play the game to grind the same daily quest for an axe motif to sell for 3k if you're lucky for them to even drop. It's boring 4 dlcs down the line.... a year later a change would be nice.PC Master Race

✭✭✭✭✭I'm personally of the mind that there should be vanity and fluff items tied to achievements.
More costumes, more pets, and even some nice mounts that can be earned, rather than purchased (whether it be for in-game coin or crowns)Edited by Sigtric on October 3, 2016 9:22PM

And that's fair enough. If you play a game to just kill something and sell what you get and stand in Rawlka all day after with the cool kids and do nothing then good on you. Huge market for you there.

✭Ok, I don't know about the BOP thing, and I get that about pets and mounts I guess they are really expensive in the Store.
But like.. 3 costumes as possible reward in the WHOLE TAMRIEL with a smaaall chance or something like that. That wouldn't compete with the Crown store, and would still be a sufficient incentive. 0 -

✭✭You would still have the players' anger to deal with.. Some of them take it very seriously that they have paid for their costumes, and would see it as an offense if free costumes got added, not counting the ones already in game1 -

There are cosmetic rewards in the game that are quest rewards/drops already.
I'm all for cosmetic rewards. You can't out-level them, they won't become obsolete like old sets do as the game progress, they don't occupy space in your inventory. It's great.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.1 -

If costume A is only available in Crown Store and Costume B is only available via in-game reward, anyone complaining they spent money for A when B doesn't cost money is just being petty. There are already costumes in game that come from earning them that are not in the Crown Store, as recently as the Dark Brotherhood DLC, and I don't think I've seen a single person rant about it.
