Yeah, we need preview for skills. Even while I have most things in bazaar already collected, won't buy styles before I see them.

And we need parts of Dibella style sold separately too...

This isn't a bug related to Skill Styles that are only available from the Gold Coast Bazaar. It goes as far back as Gold Road's launch.

Yeah would be nice to be able to preview skill styles just to see how they looked before buying them.


I also thought we'd be getting tomes today also. Makes me wonder how we'll get all the collectibles given that the bazaar has a refresh

Tamriel Tomes release April 2 when Season Zero starts, the Bazaar gets more items then too.

Realized that after. But when the Bazaar gets more items old stuff tends to get removed so I doubt we'll be able to really get a whole lot currently even with event tickets turning to gold bars cause we'll still need bars for the next event

"tends to"? how do you figure that for a brand new system.

The rewards they added today are i believe the Evergreen Rewards, they should stay forever.
Rotating Rewards rotate every season.
this linked post is more detailed.

Tamriel Tomes give us 9000 free Trade Bars with 1500 in the paid version.
And Jubilee starts on April 2 which gives us 300 Bars daily and should be at least 2 weeks.

Yeah I'm itching so bad to preview these.

I can at least tomorrow post some pics here of the blue Runeward one when I get enough trade bars to buy it.

Will not buy anything without a preview.

To be fair, these ones are just color reskins... Im not sure it's really all that necessary to have previews for the styles when they're just recolors. On one hand, I agree, but on the other... just imagine them being the same as the current skill style.. but in the color they're saying it is in.

Very different from the skill styles with a bigger change, like the current celestial warrior skill style for lightning form, which does change more than just the color.

So on the other hand, while those in the store have previews for the skill styles that change a-lot, I figured that this would be a bug, considering that it already exists for styles on the crown store. It doesn't make sense why these wouldn't. But I also understand why they wouldn't bother.

In short, they really should just be consistent lol

So I would agree with you if there weren't inconsistencies even with recolors of skills. For example, blue recolor skill styles have the tag of azure, ice, turquoise, sky, arctic, soothing, and dusk. These are all shades of blue, and having most skill styles in game including buying two of the new blue ones today I can tell you that not all of them are the same color blue and sometimes the name of the blue is not the equivalent of what someone might expect it to be. Adding this image of common blues to show my point of how diverse a color can be:


While it seems they're trying to at least keep some consistency, it still is nice to double check on expectations. I did buy the Abyssal Impact and Radiant Destruction blue skills today and while I like both, the RD style matches the Fatecarver blue less than I'd hoped it would. To be fair, one has ice blue and the other has soothing blue, but the azure abyssal impact does a better job at matching both of them weirdly enough.

Regardless, this perfectly illustrates why even for just recolors we need to know exactly what color we're getting. While we're at it can we have a preview like furnishing items so we can see the full animation zoomed out and not the cramped also kinda deceptive preview we get on most skill styles?

I realized this morning I can also buy a style on NA, so here's the Siphoning Strikes purple:


Siphoning Strikes


Leeching Strikes
Siphoning Attacks
and here's the weapon smoke affect that appears for about a second after casting:

Thanks for sharing

Agreed. Please make the code more adaptable/robust so that all existing and newly added skill styles automatically have the preview function.

Also agree. Having to use tickets to buy something we can’t preview is silly

You’re the real mvp

Molten Weapons. Effect is the same for all Morphs

No official acknowledgement from zos? Should we assume this isn't getting patched tomorrow?

Radio silence from ZoS
