Should there be more FREE polymorphs/skins achievable?

deevoh1991 · December 2016

When I say free I mean NON DLC where you Do NOT have to download a DLC to unlock a Skin, since basically you're still paying money to get a skin.

There were decent with costumes giving us a good 4 reaching Cp160

But what about skins and polymorphs and mounts ? I'm not being greedy, I'm just feel Proportionately it's lacking Everything is buy with real cash to use. This includes accessing DLC's because yeah you are paying real money for DLC's

The last nice thing they did was the plunderfest

Do you think there should be more free polymorphs/mounts/skins that does not require subscription or paying for DLC

I actually prefer it this way. These kinds of achievements really are what adds fun to this game to me, more than brand new OP sets that undermine previous gear.

I'm not talking about sets and inventory I'm talking about purely cosmetic items.

Isn't there only one polymorph for sale (Draughr)?

You can get a polymorph from the Tel Var boxes and the centre event in the sewers, and I think you get a polymorph for the no-death run in vMA, as well as for vMoL?

There's also the other skeleton nobody talks about that you get from a quest in Shadowfen and the goblin polymorph you get from the quest in Stonefalls.

Well there is still mounts and skins.

I know you are not.

I'm saying that these kinds of things to earn I find more interesting than getting the latest greatest set piece. Those set pieces are just a means to an end, things like earning Spiderkith skin are just cool.

Yeah I think that skin belongs to a DLC cradle of shadows.
I'm speaking non DLC where you don't have to spend money to obtain. Unless you also meant it would be cool to have more free to play quests that reward players with skins and mounts.

I've always thought that there should be an early quest that awards newer players a mount, and it would be even better if that quest also instructed players on how to go to the stables each day and "feed their horse" to start upgrading their riding speed, bag capacity, mount stamina.

This game does very little to instruct new players beyond the absolute bare minimum of picking up a 2H sword and swinging it around. Granted, some things you pick up on your own and figure out easily enough, but with the amount of time it requires to fully upgrade a horse, the sooner people learn, the better.

They really should have a quest that makes a mount available, even if it's just a scrawny old nag that they pay a couple hundred gold for, and instructs them on how to upgrade it.

Haven't we've had like 1 skin that you can only get via Crown Store? All the other skins you can get in-game.

KochDerDamonen · December 2016

With the way they run this game, those crown store cosmetics have to be a large portion of their income. I don't see (too many) more cosmetics being added directly to the base game without them going back to a required subscription. Near everything noted here is either part of a DLC (not free anyways) or was in the game before the buy-to-play conversion. The most noteworthy examples to the contrary are the v16 costume (chancellor) and the hallow masks (pumpkin/scarecrow, just the heads ripped off previous crown store polymorphs)

mb10 · December 2016

Yeah I agree that these costumes, polymorphs, titles and pets that are achievable from tough tasks within the game are the ones that mean the most to me.

Imperial City update was expert at this.

Soul Shriven Skin - Rare drop from Simulacrum of Molag Bal at the centre of the Imperial City Sewers
Stonefire Scamp Pet - Rare drop from Simulacrum of Molag Bal at the centre of the Imperial City Sewers
Nectotic Hoarver Pet - Completing White Gold Tower and Imperial City Prison without a single group death, under a certain time period and reading the tome before the final boss (Doesn't all have to be in the same run)
All 3 Xivkyn Polymorphs - Rare drop from random rewards box or bought for 250k Tel Var stones

Imperial City and SotH were great for this.

More unlockable skins and polymorphs in future DLC would be awesome!
