AHEM*. So where is the new Banker and Merchant?

fgoron2000 · October 2018

I know that increased functionality will cost crowns, and with the price of the original merch/banker, it won't be cheap. I would not buy it unless there was some sort of trade-in on the existing merch/banker. What I'd really like is to be able to just dye his outfit, to be able to tell him from all the other assistants with the same name...also, i'd like for him not to walk away from me as soon as i close the inventory window...that's not too much to ask is it?

All they need to do to be "fair" is sell an upgrade to the original merchant and banker that makes their functionality the same as the new and improved ones while retaining their original looks. They just haven't bothered to do so.

Until its in the patch notes, it doesnt exist.

They can have two selections. Full price for whatever the new model would sell for then a discounted price that would be an upgrade.,

That would permit them to still sell the existing models without a player having second thoughts of purchasing them lesser model since they can upgrade.

I need a drink of rotmeth for every person who comes to this thread and thinks these new versions have more functionality.

They are just cosmetic, and considering there’s going to be a Members Only part of the crown store I wouldn’t be surprised if these new ones were in there.

max_only · October 2018

Hey Zos! I notice you have a few daedric scamps as merchants in the game world.

Could you release those please? Requires no voice work.

I'm slightly terrified by the idea that you're trying to actually brew that stuff. It's a mix of Corn (probably wheat) and fermenting meat.

Glad i'm not the only one who is still waiting for that damn Motif!

If ever this happens, it will be the same anti-climax that as trait-changing and jewellery crafting.
They'll either wrap it up in some time-wasting, boring quest; or sell it through the crown store, as a separate item(s) to the existing one(s).

Expect disappointment. Again.

Sucks to have merchant that can't repair items and sell normal items to player.
Sucks to have banker that can't access to guild stores, guild bank.

Those bankers and merchants all over tamriel can do that.

Crown merchant should be striptease for us for that 5000 crown.
Crown banker should be also striptease for us for that 5000 crown.

max_only · January 2019

hey apparently there are some Alfiq bankers and merchants coming with Elyswher. I wonder if they'll just be npcs or if they'll be purchasable. I'm much more comfortable purchasing "animals" than humanoids.

You could release Pack Guar, the Artaeum Pack Rat, and Scamp merchants from DSA anytime ZOS and i'll buy it.

Ananoriel · January 2019

Wow, that merchant looks a lot like my woodelf stamden. Only my character has the outfit in green and has treebark tattoos.

What is the status on these?

ZOS_SarahHecker · December 2019

Hey all, we know you're excited about the possibility of more assistants. There is always a chance they will make an appearance at a later date in a different form, but right now, the team currently has no plan to bring these to the Crown Store.

I appreciate the comment, but the "different form" really needles. The whole reason people keep asking about these is because they want these forms. Not different ones. If you're going to release more bankers/merchants, please start with the ones that have been languishing for years in your storage closet.

Thank you so much for the update! I do hope that you’ll reconsider. While more assistants of different types could also be fun and useful, it would be wonderful to have additional options for the banker and merchant, both for NPC options in housing and variety in who accompanies our characters. I love my Ezabi, but sometimes in a crowd she hangs out with her “sisters” and I think the Alfiq must be having a laugh at the confusion of their “fragrant employers”!

Thanks for letting us know! Although tbh, I would only buy new assistants if there is some sort of discount for people with them already. I would love some new skins (I'm pretty bored with Tythis and Nuzimeh) but I can't justify spending $50-$100 on something that is purely cosmetic with no new gameplay/functionality.

They could easily be selling skins for their Bankers. From the typical races to different dremora.

I'd like to have some sort of Black Hand courier who could give and take your DB kill contracts every 1-2 hours. That quest is mostly loading screens between zones.

Wow! Thanks for the update.

I guess I won’t ever have a banker, shame.

They are just a cosmetic difference, these assistants don’t have greater functionality.

Yup, I brought this up a long time ago and the thread got closed down........still waiting

Just think if we could get (fully functional) bankers and merchants to go in our guild cities!!! ...

Oh wait...

Nevermind.
