eso hub has a write up on this but it is still not clear to me...

the way i would read this is that the monster sets and shoulder pieces everyone can get but the faction dye, title and monster helmet motif page are faction specific?

I think the monster sets are faction-specific too. But I also haven’t seen anyone say any of them are particularly good.

hmm at least in the write up of eso hub it comes across as you can get the currated sets from all of them...

It would be really nice to get clarification on this before the launch from ZOS as it will decide which faction a lot of people might choose

I logged onto PTS to check, and yeah, the faction merchants have a curated shoulder box & style page only for the faction they represent. Finn mentioned earlier today in another thread that whatever faction wins gets a monster helmet. So, it seems the monster set is faction-specific. Trying to get the monster helmet if it’s only from faction winning would be terrible though…

Yeah, when I heard that I thought "uh oh..." for both personal and general reasons. The personal is I am 100% stickerbook recently and very giddy about that and was relieved it would finally be easier to catch up every patch. It really does not feel good to feel potentially my collector itch gets burned yet again as it might take up to a year or more to complete my stickerbook with the Night Market (since we know there are going to be 2/3 this year unless plans change). It's frustrating because I do like collecting things and leads are already very unrewarding to try to collect and I have five bugged lorebooks on my main that have not been fixed in years...this doesn't feel like a reward for players like me who like to collect it feels like a punishment and a continuation of how collectors get the short straw a lot in eso.

From the general/balance one, it leads to a problem where the sets are limited and if they are meta/good they will heavily tip which faction gets sided with, it will force people who have a more balanced/varied playstyle to choose between potentially a faction they like story/rp/lore wise and the set they mechanically want or need asap, and if the sets are mediocre or bad it will just feel like an unrewarding reward and not worth the wait.

Given the nature of the Night Market and the emphasis on economy and rarities I had kinda hoped the winner would get a bundle of random rare items in game that could possibly included some of the priceless drops (Chef's Thesis, uber rare furnishing plans, Clockwork Poly, etc) if you got lucky.
