    Not a bad idea until you can find out the source and see if they are legit.

    Don't worry too much. You bought them from someone else. It's how they obtained them that's questionable.

    Plus they may not work so empty pages may be on the market :tongue:

    This commemoration is for the class that has constantly been plundered and dismantled by designers for no obvious reason while other classes continue to have coherent skill lines and feel both powerful and cool.

    The original owner of the motif pages didn't use any illegitimate means in obtaining the pages.

    yeah right.
    AND original owner dont want some dirty peasants (like rest of community) to find out how to get them
    RIGHT?
    Thats why hes not going to tell us

    If anything this is my wild guess:
    some of New Life festival quest goes somehow pushed to live server with 1Tamriel update
    Here, check all of those (and then you only need to look for them on live)
    Thanks for @SantieClaws for vid - New Life Festival on PTS server

    It is probably of no relevance yes but Khajiit she has noticed that the party tent it is there in Eastmarch - though Khajiit was the only one partying there.

    So most probably many of the assets of the festival are there - just waiting to go live at the press of a red nose of an elk.

    Who would be willing to buy at such a high price? You won't earn any profit on that and people barely know the style or look at styles for that matter.
    It just seems excessive. 500k listing does not mean it sells. Might be other flippers buy it trying to get lucky and they overestimate it themselves.

    Maybe ask where it drops instead of assuming people cheated?

    If it was available, dont you think it'd have been in the patchnotes?

    Basic logic. Use it. Until I see patch notes introducing it, it's clearly not intended, and that, as they say, is final.

    More like very sensibly covering bases. ZOS can probably check logs to see where it was bought from and by who, but why muddy the trail further?

    Eso fashion has the appearances out there. Seem like it would have to be legit for it to be out there like this.

    Here's why the game really needs armor previews and motif previews for items that drop.
    It would be useful to preview stuff from a store, inventory and in this case, have an indicator of the source like

    -loot source: Boss drop, chest, quest reward, etc.

    Just quality of life info to eliminate th confusion because if at least, it showed the original loot source, someone on staff like @ZOS_GinaBruno could quickly respond with yes it should be in the game or no it shouldn't.

    We would already know how it was originally obtained.

    Mmh the Skinchanger Outfit looks nice. Maybe not intended to be out yet, so maybe they'll removing it later or so.
    Otherwise, can't wait until it's life.

    That could've been from the PTS if the motif is obtainable there.

    If you're on PC, check out the crafting tab. There are stones for every style EVEN STAHLRIM (sp? Oh well).

    OP, next time just whisper the person instead of making a click bait forum post with every intention of farming the uninformed.

    The first post was OMG THIS GUYS CHEATED!

    Later on the individual said here that he purchased it.

    Then you didn't apologize, but instead called another person selfish for not sharing the secrets to what you considered an exploit.

    Not sure why I even waste my time, actually. leaves thread.

    I think it's bad port from pts, as the questgiver for new life festival is actualy in game and is giving quests and rewards for them as some of them are still doable even now, when the festival is not supposed to be live, such as the jumping from bridges for example.
    So anyone can go and with a bit of luck get them as well. Not sure about what is ZOS going to to about it though....

    Hey guys, this motif is related to an event being released later this year, and was added to the game prematurely. Once the event goes live, this motif will be available to everyone. To be clear, if you happen to have the motif, this is not a TOS violation and you're welcome to use it.
