Azura pack - Review

I think 4k crowns is steep for this pack especially, if people are not aware that a lot of it can be gathered in game. The statue of Azura actually looks really cool and there are a lot of options for people big on housing and decorating however 4k crowns feels a bit steep to me for a statue.

    Exactly! I was so incredibly disappointed when I saw the items in this pack. So many of them can be crafted in game.

    Ridiculous price for what is included. The Vivec pack had much more value IMO.

    Edit: Oh, and the banners are tired. I am sick of the red banners all looking exactly the same. :( The Vivec pack had unique tapestries, and the pool. Oh and the unique braziers!

    4k for the statues, 2 tapestrys, and 1 banner. None of these are available in CS normally.

    I do wish there was a second banner, I can't justify paying 4k for another pack.

    Yeah...when I saw the picture when it was first announced, I saw the Daedric benches, urns, candles, and platform that we can already craft in game - all those plans are so cheap now too!

    There appears to also be a book? Is that unique from what you can get in-game from the mystic? Also, the brazier may be different?

    Even so, it's about 7 or 8 unique pieces, where all the pieces (about 14 in total) were unique in the Vivec pack.

    I don't think the book is available in-game. And if so, not in that binding.

    I don't know about the Brazier, I haven't seen a plan for it yet, but I"m not farming Daedric plans either. Warning, it is SUPER bright.

    Vivec's pack was 5k not 4k. So no, ZOS isn't trying to scam you. Plus, there is a Vivec statue available in game, and that furniture was fugly.

    No, the Vivec pack was 4K - I bought it.

    EDIT: Also, I think the statue available in game is different from the one in the pack, so all the pieces in the Vivec pack were unobtainable elsewhere.

    Ok yay.

    The banners and rugs are available in-game, I can make them. So whatever, yes, yes, blahblah.

    Look, if you don't like the price, don't buy it. I personally have wanted this FOREVER and it will be my only chance it get it.

    This is to review the price and worth of buying it and basically what you said was covered in the original post. If you do not like discussing it, then simple don't post lol ;)

    I really love this pack.
    Azura, being my favorite Daedra, was overdue for nice furniture.

    Ever since I saw that statue in the Vvaardenfell quest, I wanted it. It does look amazing. Banner and tapestry are not spectacularily unique, but they are nice and fit. The brazier is amazing and versatile. And I didn't expect a Moonshadow shard there, these things are really nice and rare.

    I could live without the craftable daedric stuff, but whatever. 4k crowns are a lot, but... it's crown sale. So it's more like twenty bucks, which is the price of a limited costume or mount. That is very fair for what you get.

    I bought two, no regrets.

    It's a pity. 90% of this pack can be built. Still, the status plus star and moon are lovely. Not 4000 crows lovely, tho.

    There should be nothing in crown store you cant craft ingame. Crown store should stay a shortcut for working people but not split the playerbase in rich and poor.

    I disagree, this is housing stuff and there is a plethora of craftables. The only exception where I would agree with you is in regards to something in the crown store that gives a player an edge they cannot normally get in regular game play. However, it is the difference in opinions and I see where you are coming from and for sure in the long run there is a risk of it getting carried away.

    You don't wanna know how many crowns I dumped into wild hunt crates to get my Hircine garb.
