Whether you got it during the event or previously had it, what did you decide to do with this prize home?

I made mine into a flying wizard tower a long time ago. Which you can view here.

    I grinded and grinded until that stupid thing finally dropped, so now I can let it sit and rot lol

    I really don't do much housing. I wish I did, but my big thing has always been character creation and backstory writing instead of housing. Maybe if inspiration strikes, but we'll see.

    There's really only one housing project I have in my back pocket and that's that I need to make an appropriate background for a character glamour shot should ZOS ever deign to give me a new Class for the character backstory I have in the wings; I normally just find somewhere in the world, but there's nothing that matches what that pic needs.

    I'm very grateful to have the home, but I don't really like Coldharbour so I'm not going to decorate it. It's a storage for the larger furnishings I don't plan on using but can't sell, like antiquities.

    I am however really looking forward to using its 20 pieces of Glowing Thistle in my other homes.

    I've had Coldharbour for years, so couldn't get it. First it just sat there, then it became a furniture storage area, then the furnishing vault rolled around, now it's mostly just sitting there. TBF, an instance of the furnishing vault is in Coldharbour and I still dump excess furnishings into it, so I guess it's still a storage area, but it mostly just sits there. I say "hi" to Tythis when I come to stash more furnishings, though.
    I'm fresh out of outrage, but I could muster up some amused annoyance if required.

    Not planning on ever decorating it, because I have been playing ESO since before Summerset, so I have a number of large house ZOS has given out over the years, and some of them are still not decorated. However, I will travel to the outside of it when I need to travel to that part of Coldharbour.

    I bought it, ages ago. It's good for storing plants and trees I'm not currently using in a decorated house. (Also handy for porting to Coldharbour, but that's incidental.)

    I have obtained the three gold reward boxes on PC EU and PC NA every day since the Phase I event went live and the house has not dropped for me on either server. If this is RNG, some people are just lucky as this drop has a very low rate, much lower than the Wormwrithe weapon pages.

    I bought and decorated mine a long time ago. I built a facility for displaying all my dungeon, trial and arena trophies and busts. The main room is base game trophies and busts, the 2 side rooms are DLC trophies and busts, and the back room is trial and arena trophies and busts.

    If anyone on PCNA wants to see the inside just hit me up in game.

    Storage, once the other is full.
    I really don't like the constant blue twilight in Coldharbour, so while the concept (here's a flat plane, do stuff with it) is cool, I'm not planning to actually build something in there.

    For now just a test bed of putting things together before placing it in other houses (mainly Wraithhome), and just an empty space for few craft tables, bank and house storages and one of my trial dummies. I pop in there if I do home storage (non-furniture) related business or just test out things on characters so won't need to pop into another home with full deco.

    If you open a box its shows up as a White item that leaves nothing in your inventory. If you have auto loot on its very easy to miss. The only way to spot it is through notifications.

    I haven't participated in the event and I don't do housing (I wish I did but, out of all the games that I play with building/housing, ESO is by far the worst when it comes to being able to find, preview, make things and I just don't have the patience) so I had no incentive to try to grind for it on Stirk, if it comes from there, since I don't have the content pass.

    With how low the drop rate has been reported, I imagine I could probably grind a million gold faster anyway, lol
