    So, I haven't seen the one question I have:. If you already bought Morrowind, is the Warden class automatically applied to your account? I am a plus subscriber, but not everyone is. Not even sure if the class comes with ESO plus, for that matter.

    One would assume the answer is: If you have already purchased Morrowind, you will get Vvardenfell, Warden, and Battlegrounds. Unfortunately, they have not said that.

    The Warden class does not come with ESO Plus.

    One would assume, but they have not stated it, so assuming it could be wrong. That's why I asked. Hope this either gets an official reply or clarification on the announcement and/or any FAQs.

    If you bought the Morrowind Chapter, you bought Vvardenfell, Warden class and Battlegrounds. You should be able to create a Warden in Character Creation.

    If you did not buy the Morrowind Chapter but do have ESO+, you will soon have access to Battlegrounds as a base game update and Vvardenfell as a DLC. You will not have Wardens, that will have to be purchased as an upgrade.

    Thanks for replying - can you tell me where you have read this as a clearly stated answer -- right now it's an assumption that "I/We should be able to". All we know for sure is it will be purchasable in the store.

    As to the first, I bought Morrowind Chapter. I have Vvardenfell, Battlegrounds, and the Warden Class. I've created a Warden character.

    As to the second, well, here's the article this thread references: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/26355?Coming-Soon:-Battlegrounds-for-All-&-Morrowind-Moving-to-Crown-Store-&-ESO-Plus!

    Particlar quotes of importance:
    "With this in mind, in order to provide more options for The Elder Scrolls Online's community, we're opening PvP Battlegrounds access to all ESO players and updating how you can acquire Morrowind content and its different features. Soon, the Morrowind zone and story content will be available for purchase in the Crown Store and be accessible to all ESO Plus members. In addition to this, the Warden Class will be available separately in the Crown Store as an Upgrade. All these changes will occur when ESO: Summerset and Update 18 comes to Xbox One and PlayStation®4 on June 5, and PC/Mac on May 21."

    Yep, that is exactly what I've read too, and what this entire long thread is about.

    <edited to add> I have a Warden, bought the DLC as a pre-order, am an ESO plus subscriber <end edit>

    Thus the question: Where does it say that those who already own Morrowind (and have access to the Warden class) will have the Warden upgrade as part of the new change? They usually include something about what those of us who already bought something will have -- see the Tamriel One announcement, for example.

    There is no clear explanation of that here.

    They aren't taking away anything we own. If we own Morrowind Chapter, we own the Warden Class.

    There's this quote about acquiring the Warden class: "If you're interested in just the Warden Class, you'll be able acquire it separately without needing to own Morrowind. When ESO: Summerset and Update 18 launch, you will be able to find the Warden Class under the Upgrades section of the in-game Crown Store. Once acquired, you'll be able to create a new Warden character!"

    I already own the Warden class, so obviously I won't need to purchase an upgrade. I already bought Warden as part of the chapter.

    You mean the chapter that isn't a chapter any more, but is now DLC >:) (evil grin).

    Honestly, that's why I am not willing to take anything for granted - and why I'm asking for official clarification on it.

    ”Fusozay Var Var”: ”Enjoy Life”
    Life is short. If you have not made love recently, please, put down this book, and take care of that with all haste. Find a wanton lass or a frisky lad, or several, in whatever combination your wise loins direct, and do not under any circumstances play hard to get. Our struggle against the colossal forces of oppression can wait.
    Good. Welcome back.
    We Khajiit live and fight together, and our struggles will not end very soon, likely not in our lifetimes. In the time we have, we do not want our closest comrades to be dour, dull, colorless, sober, and virginal. If we did, we would have joined the Thalmor.
    Do not begrudge us our lewd jokes, our bawdy, drunken nights, our moonsugar. They are the pleasures often denied to us, and so we take our good humor very seriously.
    Outfit slots are disgustingly expensive.

    This is correct. If you already own Morrowind, nothing is changing - you can create a Warden whenever you'd like. The way you can purchase everything only affects those who don't currently own Morrowind and purchase it after we launch Update 18.

    Thank you for confirming that. I figured as much, but was not sure how that was going to work.

    So basically you are saying I wasted my money buying Morrowind?And I wasted it again when I pre-purchased Summerset? Or do those of us that spent $60 USD, on Morrowind get our money back, or at least $60 worth of crowns to make for the fact we bought something you are now giving away?
    I use to be a PVP'er like you but then I took a lag spike to the knee.

    You've been playing it for the past 12 months, haven't you? That's what you paid for.

    Again, I'll refer you to how product prices will change over time. You don't see us complaining that the original Morrowind game we bought for 50$ 15+ years ago can now be add for 5-10$ if you look around...

    You paid the price X to use product Y at a Z point in time. You cannot compare that to paying XX to use product Y at a ZZ point in time.
