Rogue's Refuge is awesome! (Don't read if you'd rather be surprised.)

I acquired Rogue's Refuge yesterday and looked it over and thought it was a normal looking house, if a bit dark. But today I looked at it better and started moving some things around and found some things I didn't notice the first time.

First was the "secret door" feature. It was open so I thought I'd close it to see what it looked like, but I did so from inside the room, and while it had a cool animation it was just a door. Then I closed it from outside the room and discovered from this side it's a bookcase! With no indication that there is a room behind it!

Then I moved the Breton Writing Desk, Knotwork and once it was placed I was putting things on top of it and accidentally clicked the desk... and the top opened and there were shelves inside and we can put things inside it and close it again!

I don't know if there are any more surprises but I will certainly give it a good looking over!

I am blown away with how these things really added to the Rouge feel. Good job!

    I had more luck by handing in the quest in the Glenumbra thieves den, both servers. Of course this is only 3-4 openings but they were in the boxes from Glenumbra for me.

    FYI, if you're interested :) Both items you mentioned are also could be crafted - they are from new Breton plans added to game lately. Though drop rate is terrible as always, I hope one day they'll become more available

    I did the heist in Glenumbra and it was there on my first try. I have never been very good at heists but that didn't seem to affect getting the drop.

    I hate heists. I made a stealthy build and so easier to get around, but the problem is these places you go into, I can't tell where I'm going half the time, is it above or below, no markers on the map.

    I'm not a fan of heists either, but fortunately we don't have to do it well to get the drop. My Thieves guild character is more into pickpocketing and stealing from houses, etc..

    The fragments aren't bound, so they might be on guild trades.

    I do not like heists either, so I watched these videos (2 so far since I only got these 2 heists):

    They are on guild traders. I bought the one from the dynamic encounter that way. I wasn't going to stand around waiting for one of those to pop.

    I wish the one from the heist was as cheap as the one form the encounters. But, understandably, that is not going to be the case now.

    I haven't gotten any more drops from all the safeboxes and thieves troves I've opened. I wonder if the drop rate decreases after we have the house.

    Doing the heists isn't a problem. It's the naff RNG. Lol

    It's fallen out of favour in the recent years but "naff off" was used as a politer term than the f-word.

    I’m going to go with the use in the example of saying something is a bit naff and see what people say. 🙂

    What isn't naff is the Rogue's Refuge house and furnishings. I was so excited by this desk that opens that I logged in later just to make my friend come look at it. He actually opened one of the doors first which is what promoted me to check it out.

    heists really depend on the map and what you need to collect, a couple are super easy but there are one or two maps that are hooooorrible.
