Cool! I can see Buffy's home (Elden Root).

Witchie Fest is next event Oct 20 - Nov 2. Kill any boss, get 2 tix. Boxes for every boss you kill (of any type). Next morph still uses the soulfire dragon pet and will be a furnishing - an hourglass that can change the time of day in your house.

More info here: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/63015

Looks like this event will still be going for our next EU and NA guild meets in early Nov! Mayhaps some boss huntin' be in order.

NA yes, and EU no, unless we adjust our schedule. It might be easier to adopt “NA on the first Tuesday of the month, and EU the day before”. That way we don't get 1st and 7th situations.

Vote now, don’t wait for November!

And that reminds me that Firesong drops on November 1st for PC. We can explore Galen and Y’ffelon, too.

First Tues of the month for NA and the day before for EU sounds good. But since I don't have a guar in the EU fight, I'll defer to those who do.

Oh yes! The new DLC'll be out. Good chance to hunt the new WBs and still get Witchie boxes.

I am game for whatever everyone else decides on the day/dates of the EU meets; just as long as someone lets me know so I can (hopefully) be there, lol.

I have to clear 12 more items from the Guild Hall for the upcoming tables, it is really going to start becoming stripped in there,

Also, if anyone knows the names of the sets or possibly has an image of where they are on the map = that would be greatly appreciated help, lol.

From 8.2.0 Patch notes:
Chimera’s Rebuke
Claw of the Forest Wraith
Old Growth Brewer

map is in guild thread. I ran the minimum on PTS to just show stations and neatest shrines. One is close to the initial shrine, which is a nice plus. The other two can be reached from the shrine next up each main road from there, so gather should be a quick process.

The schedule change sounds good, but I'm afraid I can't make either meetup this time. Happy new WB and skull hunting!

Good news for ghastley I think. Snow bear mount in the crown store from Dec 19 - Jan 5.

Unna has her bear, but now you have Nadja taking a look. She doesn’t really want to join the official Bear Riders, as they wear too much, but she is a Nord …

The self-hiding weapons are back, so that style is a temptation, too. And we gave in to it. Nadja is now even more naked.

There’s a PTS update tomorrow, so hopefully we’ll get some new details on these upcoming things:

New Lighthouse island player house in High isle

Hideable shoulder thingy (available through event merchants)

Multi-station attunable crafting station(s)

Much rejoicing!!

Thanks, Grits! I'm in between puters so have not been playing or even following ESO site until I get new puter and everything back up and running. Those new features you mentioned sound like most welcome additions.

WOO HOO!!!!

Hiding shoulders will finally let Nadja and Vicuña use Undaunted sets. They currently run 4 pieces of a set, but now a 3-piece jewelry and an Undaunted are in the mix.

I couldn't find nay details of the crafting station. Do we know anything more? It could just be a full-set station, so a set uses one slot instead of four, or the all-sets-in-one variety we actually want. But that would be four, one for each craft, so my hopes aren't high. Either way, they'll monetize the conversion from what we already have.

See you all on the PTS on Monday!

I got the sense from the livestream announcement that it is a one-station-to-rule-them-all situation, akin to the Transmute station. This was not explicitly stated, however. They were just talking about this new station solving the overcrowding problems that players have mentioned.

The mechanism for adding sets to the new station(s) was not revealed, either. I’m imagining feeding individual attuned stations to it. That would support the continued use of individual attuned stations where folks want that as well as letting fully equipped guild halls immediately upgrade to the mega-station without a bunch of running around to buy and attune some new trinket for every set in the game.

The forums are of course filled with speculation and rage.

Patch Note for 8.3.0 are posted. No mention of "attun" or "shoulder" in there. Looks like those features must wait for the full chapter, like the new class.

Darn, I thought they were part of Update 37.

I did find this on the PTS: Hide Shoulders

No surprise, but nice to know it won't be a dye or some other per-item nonsense. Very happy to see this.

Also the High Isle lighthouse player home is on the PTS for preview. Elke spent a few minutes in the sun watching ornaugs frolic in the distance.

I misread that house name as Frog Beak Lighthouse, and now I can’t see it the right way.

Very welcome news on the hide shoulders! I'll hope for some wise decisions from ZOS on fixing the 'sea of tables' problem with crafting set items. And, as ever, I'll hope for a butt fix for the Timbercrow Wanderer costume; if Almalexia can wear a loincloth flawlessly, Buffy expects to as well.

They said the "Attune" thing was going to happen in the third quarter in lieu of one of the annual DLC we would have at that time. They are going to do a huge patch update at that time.

Did you catch when “invisible style” comes out? I could only find the bit about buying it at the Impresario tent. Hopefully, they’re doing it in a way that lets more pages be added to the style.

And on the subject of “when”, the Feb showcase again fails to include Aderene, the decon assistant. I have resisted buying Giladil, especially as I would need one on each server. Maybe the Aureal armory one is not selling, and they changed their minds.

I didn't catch that; I'll have to listen to it again more carefully. I thought they were just doing the shoulders; is it going to be everything invisible if you want? That would be awesome!

I just heard that the Hide Shoulder outfit style will be available from the Impresario during Jester's Festival, then from her assistant afterward.


Frog Beak is a very cool house. I just took another look around and ended up on the beach watching ships go by.

The thing I like about Frog Beak is that the lighthouse itself is relatively compact. Just three modest rooms that don’t demand 300 slots each. The undercroft could be left almost empty, and the exterior is landscape, not yard space, so you don’t feel compelled to fill it, either. Compare that to say, Ebonheart Chateau, where it’s a much larger interior, and a walled yard to plant. Or Doomchar, Moonsugar Meadow, or Coldharbour, where you need to build a house.

It’s also clear where the living space is. Several of the others give you too much choice of where to live, which can be confusing to visitors.

A little more info on ESO's solution to the full service guild hall 'sea of tables' problem. Solution will be one master attunable table per crafting profession (four). To load up a master attunable table with craftible sets, you will 'feed' it already attuned tables. That answers the question of how to transition from the old to the new, and speculation is that you will still buy old style attunable tables and attune them as new sets come out - then 'feed' them to the appropriate master attunable table. Regardless, sounds like a massive improvement.

This has to be fake news. Everything I’m reading says they are doing it right.

One station for each craft. Attuned regular one-set stations get fed to it, new or old. It’s like they listened to us. Can’t be true.

Maybe my explanation was unclear because it sounds like you said the same thing I did, only better.

Just pointing out the things I expected them to get wrong. It could easily have been one big combo station for all four crafts, and only handle the newer sets, leaving the existing seas of tables.

mALX will get annoyed at having to move back in all the furnishings that got bumped for more sets, but she’ll like the end result. I hope the “feeding” process lets the rest of us help with the work. I only have a fraction of the sets on EU, so it won’t take Fleur long to clean up there.

Is that the name of the lighthouse? I fell in love with it, bought ANOTHER 21,000 Crowns and spent over half of them on the furnished version of it, lol. I didn't know you could see ships passing!!! I did learn you could swim out to the coral reefs!

Oh, that sounds really interesting! I wonder what kind of animation and sound effects they will have for the "eating" of the attuned sets? I am going to LOVE this, because it means we can have any house size we want for the Guild Hall and no more juggling hundreds of tables to make them lay out in alphabetical order, WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!




!



Oh no, this is what I have been begging and praying for! I can put the new sets out in the courtyard where we hang out for Guild Meets so people don't have to go inside at all anymore unless they just want to! I will have to devise some entertaining decor inside after this, lol.

By the way; Welcome Back! We should have another Guild Meet for the EU since neither you or I made it and poor Grits had to run around by herself at this month's Meet, lol.

*dreams of moving the NA guild hall back to Hundings Palace*

I do miss Hundings too! It is so nice to visit there for Ghastley's Guild Hall; and so much fun with the water nearby and diving setups; etc.

I’m up for that. When’s a good time?

I can't do it over the weekend; but most weekday nights are good.

Great news on the attunable stations! Thank you, Acadian!


I'm up for an EU do-over this week. How's Tuesday?

Tues 18th at 6:00 PM EDT then.

I'll be there; but someone may need to tell me on Tuesday (something like a PM saying: "Guild Meet Tonight!!!" )

I was wondering if anyone on the EU could make some (all just lowest level materials) research items with just various traits on them for Tessla to start researching (and put them in the Guild Bank)? Misa has been making them for all my new characters on the NA; so I never realized how hard it is to come by research items without an older character, lol. Wish we could transfer stuff between servers, lol.

The bank was full last time I looked.

Might have to mail them instead, and it would help to know what Tess already knows. Fleur and Brynja know all the traits, but Grits and I will have to coordinate, or we will duplicate too much. Post your current state in the EU Research thread?

One option is that I send Blacksmithing and/or woodworking items, and Grits does Clothier/Jeweler. That would avoid us sending the same items.

I think she only has learned a few traits from all the disciplines. She can only do three at a time of each discipline; though as few as she has researched so far that might be done researching in a day at this point. I can pull them from the bank immediately if there are under 20 of them; that should cover two days of researching.

Any help is appreciated (!!!) so however you want to do it is fine with me = either take one trait and run across the board of items for that trait (or take one item and run down the different traits with it if that is how you are used to doing it). I am not sure if it makes a difference in how fast the researching is done, it used to be faster to run across with one trait across the board rather than researching a full item's traits (but that was the old rules, they may have changed through patches).

I so appreciate any help anyone wants to give me on this!

See EU Research Center thread.

Ok! I didn't know there was one,

Here's some info on the new Necrom house Emissary's Enclave. It's listed on the PTS as a Classic home with 600 furnishing limit, 1.3 million gold. There is a furnished version for Crowns.

It's pretty big and rambling with some terraced patios overlooking the harbor. It would make a great magister's guild hall or workplace. It's bright inside with decorative stuff built in on the walls, so I'm less anxious than usual about the furnishing limit.

I love the ship house. Dangit, there go my Crowns again.

Ooh, this is interesting! I am down to just a handful of crowns again after buying the lighthouse; and broke in real world from buying the new chapter; (and remodeling the house, lol) but will go check out the new places on the PTS where I can buy them for a dollar? Lol.

Seriously, I did buy Crowns three times in the past 5 months and spent them all on ESO real estate; I really need to STOP looking at the new houses, lol.

Next event is Whitestrake's Mayhem May 11-23. 2 tix per day for first Cyrodiil or battleground daily and 1 tix per day for first IC daily. Buffy's plan is to do one scouting mission a day for 2 tix. Right now is a nice quiet time to get scouting missions done by alts and ready for turn in.

More info here: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/64081

Thank you , Acadian! It's good to get a head start on this event.

The Dapple Grey Palfrey is in the Crown store. My favorite mount in the game! Yay!!

Just looked. That's a pretty pony!

Random useful hint: the guaranteed reward for the quest given by Meryline Barthel on Amenos is a ring with the Triune trait. Probably the easiest way to get one for research.

Ooh, Thank You! I need that trait! Where is that place? (what Province?)

mALX, that quest is in Amenos. Here's the info on it: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:A_Father%27s_Pride

Another Mayhem (pvp) event. This one runs June 29 - July 11. Two tix per day from doing a Cyrodiil quest and one tix per day from doing an IC quest.

Buffy'll do one scouting mission per day (already have half a dozen pre done and ready for turn in) and be happy just getting two tix per day.
