This is the official discussion thread for the "Get Exclusive Deals and More with New ESO Plus Rewards!" blog article.

We are thrilled to announce a series of brand-new updates to ESO Plus, providing even more value to current members. Check out this article to find out what new rewards are coming to ESO Plus soon!

Note that if you are partly though a 3- or 6-month membership, you will be credited your bonus crowns by the end of November.

Thank you so much! Mine actually renewed last week on a new 180 Days so this makes me super happy!

Rest all sounds good, as I'm ESO Plus it's mostly extras for me.

So much for ppl getting loyalty rewards and feeling special the things they are going to be giving to people that keep their eso plus active will be available later in the year for other's to purchase in the crown store so it's like how when you buy a limited time mount it ends up in crown crates later on making it really not a limited time item or really that rare

I was watching mine closely as it renews late October/Early November. Haha.

Please add additional outfit slots and allow free outfit/dye changes for ESO Plus members.

Merlin13KAGL · September 2018

It indicated some things would be exclusive to the + membership.

10% increase in Crown allotment, limited time unlocks of collectibles that don't really sell that well or are common crate drops...

Feels like grasping for subs more than bonus rewards, imo.

Apache_Kid · September 2018

Meh. I'll be impressed when we get a siege storage bag.

Marabornwingrion · September 2018

Cancelled my sub and will never buy it again

Exclusive items are overrated. At least we're getting them free or at a discount.

There's nothing to say the subscriber items which head to the store won't be grossly over valued.

WCHero · September 2018

Glad to see you are adding more stuff for subscribers. Though, is it possible us non-sub peasants can have the craft bag, now?

In additional to unique deals, ESO Plus members will also gain access to exclusive Crown Store items. These exclusive items may be available for sale for Crowns or even free (as mentioned above). These items can include collectibles such as costumes, pets, mounts, and more, and will be identified by the gold text and Chalice icon. Like the exclusive deals, these items can change often, so be sure to keep an eye out.

The bold part implies that many of the exclusive items will be at full price. "May" being the operative word. I have a problem with this. My experience with various retail companies that I have worked for is that loyalty members of many businesses typically visit the store front about 10 times more often than non members. Those same members traditionally can spend anywhere from 2 to 3 times as much as a non member. Having the majority of the exclusive items at full price just seems to be a way to pull more crowns out of my wallet. And, I have a feeling that the 150 stipend of crowns for each month won't come close to covering the costs of these full price items. This seems less of a benefit to me and more of a money sink.

Vanthras79 · September 2018

Thanks ZOS for the bonuses to ESO plus sub. I know I say this a lot, but I really do feel this game is still moving in the right direction. Way to go!

Sevn · September 2018

So most of if not all of the new bonuses are strictly related to the crown store? Zero QoL additions? 150 extra crowns when items have risen by at least 500 crowns huh? Alrighty then.

Man I hope so as at this point it's the only reason I sub, discounts on unknown future crown store items of which most likely I'll have little interest in doesn't sound like much of a reason to continue with a sub.

Same for me on Xbox One...funny cause my main gripe was not getting crowns.

Sarannah · September 2018

Very nice, thank you!

Ooooh That would be interesting.

Cuthceol · September 2018

But will ESO plus make the servers run better or stop bugs?

LordLomax · September 2018

Well I am looking forward to it and see what we get

Acrolas · September 2018

I never, ever expected ZOS to tap into the TOS goodwill clause for virtual currency for this specific instance. I took membership to be related to the promotions, competitions, and sweepstakes also listed. Namely, membership as in signing up for a newsletter or following a social media account. Not the paid ESO+ subscription.

I'm happy people are getting a bonus stipend. But it's not the interpretation I would have used to get there.

We'll see how the rest goes. It was a good move to remove gifting from the ESO+ selection as that would inevitably favor certain people in the in-game item trade over others.

Quick access to an unusually high volume of siege items was probably one of the main considerations in making the Banker unavailable in Cyrodiil. I think it's a fair compromise that a trebuchet or camp that I would struggle to fit into my garage only takes up one slot in inventory.

Recremen · September 2018

This is all quite lovely. It's hard to replace the value of the DLC that ESO Plus misses every year based on the initially-advertised release schedules, but it sounds like you've got a good system moving forward to offset the loss. Thanks!

doggie · September 2018

I really don't understand why they force people who purchase the DLC's to micromanage their inventory. I started a new character 2 weeks ago and it's now got 160'ish inventory slots and it will be another 50 days untill it's 210+.

In the meantime my inventory fill up after a quest or two and I have to find a bank or store, or crafting station. It's really annoying.

Why are people who may spend 50-100$ on the game and play 3-4 months so much more important than people who spend 300-400$ paying for the DLC's and playing on and off over the years?

For people who have purchased the content over time it dosen't make a lot of sense to subscribe, we've already paid quite a lot for the game.

DirkRavenclaw · September 2018

I just looked at it, looks nead, some Items where 1 crown for plus, 2 crowns for non plus members, 1 item(a pet) was completly free for plus members and some items where exclusive to members like a deral on mimic stones, overall a nice change

Jazdia · September 2018

Honestly, I’m looking forward to this. Freebies are always nice and I’m curious as to see what discounts we get and what counts as exclusive.

Thanks!

Esha76 · September 2018

I'm pretty excited to see what ZOS has in store for the exclusive stuff and discounted crown items. I've been subbed pretty much the entire time since day 1, and I'm due for a renew at the end of this month, I will absolutely be renewing.

I'm really glad to see more perks for ESO plus members. I don't care if it's a grab at more subs. I feel the subscription will have more value for me.

The link isn’t working. I’m stuck on the age verification page. I put in my birthday and it takes me to the home page of the website, I click the article and it asks for my birthday again, I put it in again, it takes me back to the homepage again, it’s an endless loop.
Before anyone asks, I’m 30, so I’m old enough.

I've found this happening to me more and more lately. What I do is just enter a different date, and then I get in.

Where does it say that the free exclusive items will be available later for purchase? I read that we'd get free exclusive items every so often - though I don't like the idea of randomly available and for a very limited time (I certainly hope we'll get notice beforehand and will have several days, at least, to log in and get the item). Then, we'd also get other exclusive items for purchase, in addition to deals on regular CS offerings, including limited-time items. Are we just assuming that these will become available later to everyone else, or did I miss something?

MorganaLaVey · September 2018

Does the "Priestess of Mara costume" have any meaning behind or is it just a ramdom Costume with a Marasymbol done on it?

*sry for my bad english

drSMEAGOL · September 2018

Please have ESO+ increase inventory storage capacity. Each DLC adds new content and gear, but no extra inventory space to store it. I have all 15 character slots but only play on 4 because the other 11 are just there to hold gear. I also have all of the storage crates, but the amount of of storage provided by the crates is not enough for clearing any of my 11 characters used for storage or any of the new gear that has come out since then. I would love to have a single place that holds all my gear so I wouldn't have to spend countless amounts of hours switching characters just to get gear.

Acrolas · September 2018

A random thought that hit me while fishing...

Are Cassus Andronicus and Allaria Erwen going to wind up as Chalice items? Because it would make sense to gift those at full price as other people might not have a banker and/or merchant assistant. And it also make sense to offer them at a discount to ESO+ members who may be more likely to already have a banker and/or merchant.

A possibility worth budgeting the crowns, I suppose...

Strider__Roshin · September 2018

The direction of this game is definitely making me a proud investor

Keep up the great work ZOS!
