i buy houses usually ones that i already have a decorating idea for
though i mostly prefer houses with flora and water like upcoming Gladesong Arboretum.
i also have preference for certain architecture styles.
my favourites so far are Leyawiin, Alinor, Apocrypha, Druidic, and Elsweyr.

i am also really excited for Shadow Queen's Labyrinth because i love evergloam and the alinor architecture (it also has a waterfall though which is nice)


furnishing packs and individual furniture that i have an idea for.
like the maormer furnishing pack that i bought twice when it first came out to put the majority of it in Fogbreak Lighthouse.
and the dibella furnishing pack which i put in my highhallow hold garden.
music boxes are also nice. i've collected nearly all of them i think

outfit styles that i can see myself using on at least one outfit but preferably multiple characters.
for example the Gloambound arms pack which i use for multiple characters and nearly all outfits for my main character.


a big bundle of crown crates when they're new or a returning one i really want something from,

i've also bought little things like hair, personalities, polymorphs, or adornments

oh assistants are useful if you don't have any yet.
unless they're on sale they're all 5000 crowns each.
I'd say a deconstruction assistant is the most useful

I spent mine on Zone DLC and the assistants when the latter went on sale. A scattering of other things, usually mounts. I’m with Danikat in that I avoid buying skyshards for a zone or anything similar; if I can’t be bothered to hunt down skill points for a given character I probably am not playing them enough to need them.
