    Dear Santa, would it be too late to update my Christmas list to also include any of the ambrosia? Of course, mythic aetherial ambrosia would be delightful...but any of the other ambrosia would be great for the upcoming CP grind :kissing:

    Thank you @heaven13 for the ambrosia! :smiley:

    Is it really faster to try and force the lock rather than try to pick it? You can't possibly be finding 600 chests in a day, which means you'd have quite a few unsuccessful attempts and then have a short cooldown between tries.

    Sure I can. Because what you fail to realize is, even if you successfully force pick a lock, you still lose that lockpick buddy. I go through half a stack of lockpicks doing my route because like I said, even if every single one of my force locks is successful (which 85% of the time they are), I still break that pick.

    The more you know. o:)

    I don't need anything for myself. However I would like to surprise my fiance. He works so hard for our family and doesn't always have the time to farm for reagents. We help each other out as much as possible but as working parents and doing trials and progression runs in our spare time leaves us little time for farming. I would greatly appreciate it if any Santa could help him out.

    He is always in need of:
    Lorkhans Tears
    Cornflower
    Lady's Smock
    Water Hyacinth
    Or just Spell Power Potions.

    If the blueprint wasn't so ungodly expensive, I'd buy two for us. I don't even have the money for one. Prices should go down over time, though! And I wish you luck and good will for these other things!

    I accounted for the lockpicks breaking on even successful forces. I was thinking more about the cooldown if you fail. I guess I forgot about the ledgermain skill which increases your chances to force a lock since whenever I'm picking a lock, the chance is abysmally low for anything other than a simple lock, as none of my characters currently have any points in it. Seems like a lot of chests in one day to me. But, if you run a route for any length of time, I suppose they'll add up.

    Apart from thieving and murdering my way across Tamriel, I have been a very good girl this year. Sorry about the bloodstains, they'll wash right out if you use cold water.

    I would like a Xanmeer Crown Crate, because that red frog pet is just too darn cute! :)

    I know it's not in the spirit of gifting, but he's actually only 40 Gems! I'm not saying this as a 'you don't need/deserve gifts', not at all!!! I just mean you could buy him directly from there if your luck with the Crates missteps. Not wishing that upon you, either! If we could gift with Gems, I'd send him right over!
    :heart:

    @Riverlynn I wrote a lil thing based on it.. hope you get some chuckles out'a it!
    "Get away from this one, troll!" Kamii shrieked, tripping and falling on her tail.
    Orthuna paused, holding her hands up in a shrug. "What are you talking about?" She glanced at Penelope, who held her staff up straight, ready to stand from the seat.
    A chuckle came from the opposite corner of the room.
    Turning to face it, the Orc scowled. "Nulie, what did you do?!"
    Her raspy laughter intensifying, Nulieren brushed off the hostility. "Just some of the pretty frog poison. Do not worry, she will be fine." She bared her teeth in a smirk. "It is amusing to watch Kamii stumble like a kit looking for their mother, no?"
    "It's really not."
    Nulieren glanced across the room. "Noone asked you, healer. You're not needed here."
    Penny glared back, grip on her staff tightening. "How 'bout I crack your skull and watch you stumble?"
    Orthuna stomped, drawing both women's attention. "No skull-cracking! And no more Kaleido venom in the food, or I'll ban you from the kitchen!"

    Fair enough! Yea when I get in the zone I can use up 25 picks on a 15 minute loop, that's assuming none of my force locks fail. On average it's probably closer to 30-35 picks for a 15 minute run. If I were to do 4 hours of straight farming these kinds of loops, that's where I would end up going through a few stacks of picks. That being said, you're right 600 broken picks is on the extreme side, I only farm that intensely once in a while. Usually it's closer to 200-300 broken picks a day for me. Still like you said, it adds up and my own supply of lockpicks over the years has dwindled to the point where I have to actually trek out to guild traders and try to find them for a sustainable price.

    Searching guild traders for cheaper stacks of lockpicks is not my idea of fun, so I figured it would be a gift I would ask for in a thread where such a thing was taking place.

    So thanks again for the people that generously sent me spare lockpicks and cheers @xan4silkb14_ESO , we're on the same page.

    Dear Santa,

    I was mostly good this year! Met some new friends, aided some lovely Psijic folk. They even gave me a huge manor I don't know what to do with!

    I would love anything- the whole idea of this gift exchange is heart warming :D A gal couldn't say no to furnishings, cute critters, new clothes, motifs (Fang, Scale, Psijic, Pyandonean, Murkmire), you name it.

    Tis the season for giving, so I hear! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays to all :)

    Hi Santa

    This year I've been a pretty good girl, but I don't need anything for myself. On the other hand, my husband just joined me in ESO, but he is very sad that he has no cool mounts. He wishes desperately to have a camel. Seeing him sad makes my heart ache, but I cannot do anything to help him. I know that that's a lot to ask, but that would make both of us truly happy.

    And I thought of something else...

    If any PVPers on PC/NA have an over abundance of Gladiator Proofs I would gladly accept Runebox: Arena Gladiator Helm, Runebox: Arena Gladiator Emote, or Runebox: Arena Gladiator Costume. Please don't buy them for me as they are too expensive.

    I've got a generous gifting of housing materials from various players and I thank you! If there are posts from other PC/NA players requesting housing materials please choose them over me!
