All they have to do is add skins to them like the warden bear..
Luxury is a status symbol. It is meant to show people they belong to an upper class than the one you belong to.
The banker and merchant in-game are luxury. They are not needed to play the game at all.
If you can't afford them, stop crying.
5k crowns=~38 Eur /$ ...ESO standard edition game title =20Eur/$ !!!!
Banker + Merchant =10k crowns= ~70 Eur/$ ...ESO collection(all major updates and DLC's)=80 Eur/$ ....."priced..ok", "fair price" WTF are you talking about? what kind of logic is that????
Also Banker don't offer guild trading and Merchants don't do repairs....
For me those 5k make sense only if you pay them by collecting eso+ 1.5k

As for spending gold for repairs? It's fast. And I have plenty of gold. If I'm out of Crown Repair kits on someone, it usually doesn't cost all that much in gold to get it done fast.
I think the largest repair bill I've had so far was ITN 50 gold. *shrug*
Well, there are no merchants inside delves and dungeons.
I bought both assistants and it was one of the best quality of life improvement in ESO for me.

Snobbery? Really? shame on you.
if they're any kind of symbol of anything it's that you have more money than sense... even if you don't have all that much money.

are you serious??
small exp boost, small gold boost, craft bag, crowns. Once you have enough crowns for the DLC you want, spending money on ESO+ is all about the craft bag and getting cosmetic items and homes you could just as easily bought with gold.
Do you not remember the days when, when you paid for a whole game, you got the whole game for that money and you were done paying for the game?
Both Merchant and banker are incredibly useful.
Anywhere you are it is possible to sell your goods and access your personal bank(except for a few places, like Cyrodiil).
It is very good if you're far away from towns and need to change sets or withdrew important item/s, sell items or deposit to the bank to ease your burden etc.
I have both assistants and I find their price tags cheap.
If I were to price them, I would have set the price to 7500-10000 crowns each
Only downside is that the merchant can't repair and the banker doesn't have guild store and guild bank access.
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom If you plan to add additional functionalities to the merchant and the banker in the future, I suggest the following:
1) If the player already bought the assistants, there will be special tokens which will cost 2500 crowns each.
This token will upgrade an assistant to have full functionality, like merchant can repair items.
2) If the player didn't buy the assistants, he will have to pay full price of 7500 crowns in order to have an assistant.
3) Only full functionality assistants will be available for direct purchase. The assistants with less functionality will retire from the crown store.

This is pretty scummy if I'm being quite honest

It's not a required item. It's a convenience item. You're paying for time saved, or the convenience.stitchesofdooom wrote: »5k crowns=~38 Eur /$ ...ESO standard edition game title =20Eur/$ !!!!

Oh no, not the added functionality.
Your suggestion of removing current assistants from the crown store.
I never expected a consumer to suggest such predatory, anti-consumer practices.
The discounts are in the form of crown sales, they are not directly discounted (nor will they ever be.)The price is too high, something less would be appropriate, when these discounts? never seen for the merchant and the banker.
Just that we're on the subject, 5k for 1 mundus stone ???

Well, if you leave current assistants, less people will buy the full functionality ones.
The addition of new assistants should be a good investment for ZOS so removing the old assistants will result in more higher end purchases
My suggestion increases the chance that additional functionality will be added.

If you assume that people wouldn't pay for the added functionality, why would you have the added functionality as a token in crown store the first place?
Basically all you're doing is forcing someone to pay 7.5k for something they only need to pay 5k for

The added functionality token is for players who bought the old assistants for 5K each(before they retire from the crown store in favor of the new assistants).
This token will be available at all times if players want to upgrade their assistants.
Yes, it is forcing players who didn't buy the old assistants to pay 7.5K crowns for the new assistants, but it's not the same since the new assistants will have additional features.

Do you not remember the days when you paid for a whole game, you got a whole game that was not connected to the internet to play with other people and you were done paying for the game and the "updates" to the game was a new game you paid for again and had to start over from the beginning?

Yet, a lot of us have ESO Plus because you get access to a lot of content, and the convenience of double bank spots and the craft bag is overwhelming. And you get crowns with ESO Plus that a lot of people will use to get the banker, because again, it is very, very convenient, especially in trial runs.
If you don't like the personal banker, which is shared across all of your characters, then don't buy it. Buy bank and bag upgrades. But I got news for you, that's going to cost you a lot of gold, too.
