ZOS - PLEASE ADD ALL CRAFTABLE SETS TO A DEDICATED STATION

rbfrgsp · April 2022

OP is 100% right, but let's put this in terms that ZOS will understand the value of: think of all the database items that will no longer need to be saved and retrieved....

Anyway, the idea of a single, large-piece item of achievement furnishing is really nice. So that the all-sets desk alone looks like and takes up the space of one of the crafting pavillions in, say Mournhold.

And if you made it a new type of furnishing - Guild Achievement furniture - then it wouldn't undermine the value of the existing desks because 99.9% of individuals would never obtain the achievement. Something like: unlock all crafting sets and place 200 smithing stations in your home, get the smithing master station. Hit max 500 guild members. Collectively craft 250,000 set pieces as a guild. That type of thing.

Either way, it has to happen because trading and crafting guilds require all stations. One day we will hit the furnishing limit with stations alone. And you know they'll never increase the furniture cap, so....

I don't get it ?

There are still people out there, who believe that ZOS would mind anything
the Player base has to say.

Is the AWA communication disaster already forgotten ?

Most guilds, and there are hundreds, have ALL of the stations for their guild mates. Guild leaders feel obligated to provide them and if they want a guild with 500/500 people then they will most likely need to provide them. I have been running multiple trade guilds for almost 5 years now and I was one of the first GMs to provide that service for my guild. Back then it cost me over 50mil gold for the stations and I worked for over a year to accomplish the task, funding it with personal trader sales. I've been dealing with this issue and discussing it with other guild leaders for years now. This is my point.

Feel the guild leaders obligated to provide them for the folks that do "150+ master writs at once" or who exactly is the target audience for such services? Who is funding it and who is making a profit of it? And why should ZOS trivialize the funding part if players are making a profit of it?

LOL .. Nobody is making a profit from this! Attunable stations are gotten by hard work and time earning gold through sales. It's a gift from the heart to the guild and no GM that I know of ever charges their members. That would be ludicrous. And, it's not only guild leaders putting these stations in their homes. Hundreds of players have done this because they love to craft and its a welcome challenge.

Okay, so the poster doing 150+ master writs at once that I quoted is doing this just for fun and no additional advantage? And the players that "welcome a challenge" want this challenge to be trivialized by removing the travel time from crafting and GMs use attunable stations to attract these players to their guilds, right? So it is you as a GM and your like that want to have it easier to provide these services to your guild members, correct?

I can understand that there is a potential for QoL improvements here for GMs and even for crafters. What I'm not so sure about is if this would be a healthy change for ESO's economy.

The writs are the same money into the economy whether or not they are done by a guild and literally there is still hundreds of spots in guild halls for zos to add more. It just won't look as pretty. It's literally just a quality of life change.

If doing them is made easier by guilds providing all attunable stations in one spot, than more writs will be made. People tend to be lazy. Seems pretty obvious to me. Right now, guilds have to invest heavily into providing this service to their members, thus gold is taken out of the economy too. This requested new "match-all-crafted-set" station would have to be reaaaaallly expensive to not shift the balance.

No. It wouldn't. The writs literally already work this way. It is already all in one place. Because people are already asking for the existing attunable to be fed into the new system, thus that is a complete non-issue. The attunables literally already exist and they are in the guild halls literally right now. It is the exact same thing for the people using the furniture, it is just more quality of life decorating for the guild leader. The current system also doesn't take money out of the economy, as writs are purchased from other players as are mats, to the extent any money changes hands at all. If anything, it would be take more money out of the economy to not have those tables take up that much space because a lot of that coin would likely be spent on things like luxury furniture instead, which unlike buying and selling writs from other players is an actual money sink.
