Open Call for the (Old) Worm Cult Set as Motif

Anumaril · January 2023

This is a call for ZOS to add the old Worm Cult set as an unlockable motif in the game. It is (in my humble opinion) the best looking necromancer-themed motif in the game, and I absolutely adore wearing it while questing with my necromancer. Sadly I'm forced to actually wear the armour itself from the Vaults of Madness to pull this off, which means I can't wear other armour sets I'd rather wear for their effects etc.

It's been so many years and this honestly deserves to just be a motif on its own by now. I know I can't be the only one who loves this style, or would at least use it if it were a motif (the "new" Worm Cult motif added some years ago doesn't compare to this "old" version imo). I would love to be able to wear this while doing dungeons or PvP, not just while questing with random dungeon armour from VoM. I hope you consider adding it as a motif (to the Crown Store even) soon, would definitely cry tears of joy.

PS: while you're at it, maybe you'd consider a hide shoulders option

They are adding hide shoulders! Interesting that there’s a unique motif in a nonDLC dungeon. I’ve never noticed it.

They are?? That's amazing! Pretty much all of my saved outfits I designed around not having shoulders because I prefer the slimmer silhouette. Where did you hear they'd be adding the option? Is it coming in the next update or something?

And yeah I'm pretty surprised about the style myself. For years I kept silent about it because I assumed they'd add it eventually. But at this point I'm more than willing to get vocal about it haha

It was mentioned in the stream covering the next update. It’s also on PTS right now! It was described as being available for event tickets in the assistant like the dwarven spider pet.

It's weird there are a bunch of base game dungeon styles we actually don't have access to as a motifs.

Lich, Original Ashlander, Ebon, Hawk's Eye, Lich, Maormer, Reach Winter, Savior's Hide, Original Worm Cult, Asylum, and 5th Tier racial motifs.

At least there are costumes for original Ashlander and Reach Winter. The others? Not so lucky. And I'd love to have a proper Savior's hide style or costume. That was my go to armor in Skyrim, and in later playthroughs of Morrowind.

I'd even settle for a costume, if not a motif. Sure it would be better to have a motif so you can mix and match what you want, but at this point anything is better than nothing. The old Worm Cult style even has a robe version (not the half-robe version I'm wearing in the picture) which would also be cool to have access to.

I just don't understand the reason for restricting so many styles like NotaDaedraWorshipper mentioned. The lich style is another one I've had my eye on for years because of the lich staff (which looks similar to Mannimarco's staff). I was convinced that the Nerian'eth arms pack would include an updated version of that staff since it's what he uses in the actual dungeon, but it ended up being a different one altogether.

i want lich style

For me, I more fondly to the unobtainable Savior's Hide motif, but yeah same they should by now make these unobtainable motifs obtainable in some form of a way by now. Like, they could at least make them a limited time item in the crown store or shove them in a crate. Or, as a reward pitch to the team working on the upcoming endless dungeon, they could add the motifs as rewards within it.
