Hopesfire in TESO, does anyone still have this?

Meredy · February 2021

As some of you know, the legendary sword of Almalexia Hopesfire along with Trueflame from Nerevar (and other artifacts) were previously available in the game by fishing. This has been a very long time ago.

I was wondering if anyone here still has Hopesfire in game, and whether they could share a picture. There haven't been any pictures on the internet of Hopesfire unfortunately yet, and me and a few others are dying to know what it looked like.

Also it could be nice to post it on a wiki with the author's consent.

I have never seen a hopesfire sadly, just trueflame

Meredy · February 2021

it would be very nice if uh.. zos itself could release a picture perhaps if there's no one who has it here

it's just another interesting piece of cut content that had and still has so much potential (for reasons I won't spoil).

I am using a Nerien'eth sword as a substitute. Close enough.

This is actually Trueflame. The one I am looking for is Hopesfire

Here's some data mined info from their item codes. Note that the info on their drops is outdated.

It's a little hard to tell if the one in back is Hopesfire or not. It might just be a second Trueflame, in which case, good luck finding a picture of Hopesfire! It apparently used to drop as part of the Arms of Infernance set, but I can only find Trueflame pics, and those mostly from people who fished it up from Stonefalls before it got removed.

Looks like 2 Trueflames. Hopesfire doesn't really have a cross-guard.

Wouldn't hopesfire not be available since it belongs to an alive Almalexia? Good luck getting that thing from her haha.

Either way, I would love a style page for it to emerge like how trueflame did. I love dunmer design, and especially the look of the ebony scimitars in Morrowind. Hopesfire would probably be the closest I could get to that, without just using a standard ebony sword style.
