Maybe it’s from an Imperial detachment? (Feng actually rides a Palomino)

QUOTE(TheCheshireKhajiit @ Mar 10 2018, 12:47 PM) QUOTE(monkeyemoness @ Mar 10 2018, 11:25 AM) Got Lucius to level 20 last night. When I got to pick the costumes, I decided to go with the Mages Guild one since it's the only one I'd actually use. Never mind that all 3 could be easily replicated with crafted armor or an Outfit. Then I got to the free crate that comes with the level up and what do I get? The Mages Guild outfit that has pants instead of a robe. :v Variety.
Ooh, probably should’ve just waited on the crates till next Thursday. New season drops then. Turns out I was right about the crates not changing based on the current season. At least the preview for the next reward says Flame Atronach crate. Anyways, it's a little annoying that the purple cp150 Provisioning recipes are so rare they cost as much as a high-end motif. Granted, since there's only six of them, it's not as horribly expensive as buying a full motif, but it's more that the droprate is so low they're virtually nonexistent from writs. I've only ever gotten one to drop from writs since the Master Writs were introduced. Ugh. That said, I wonder what makes the Lusty Argonian Maid Mazte recipe much cheaper compared to the other 5.

Really? Seems strange that it wouldn’t be based on the current season. Oh well, guess it’ll be some free gems for Khajiit’s crew!

A couple of mine are getting close to the level 30 crate. Since I haven't had a lot of FA crates, I may level them up a bit and find out. There isn't one at level 40, or Laurie would know the answer already.
I'd suspect that "award a crate" is the same call in their code wherever it's used, and keeping two lists of content, card images, etc. active is more trouble than it's worth. So you may still "Fire Atronach" because they forgot to update the text, but it won't happen that way. The latest give-away shows the new stuff is in place.

QUOTE(treydog @ Mar 18 2018, 07:42 PM) While adventuring in Craglorn, Trey reached lvl 50 (and shortly thereafter Champion 10). Now to figure out the point distribution.... decisions, decisions.
Congrats!!

I'd noticed Trey hovering at 48 forever, and wonder what the hold-up was. When Unna did so recently, she was in Coldharbour taking on Molag Bal, so XP was coming in thick and fast. Perhaps faster than she'd have liked.
Now you 're there, expect to be surprised at the rate the CP come in, I was. And still am. She just passed 140, so the magic 160 is in sight! I gave up trying to keep her equipment current. It's like trying to buy a teenager clothes that will fit next week.

There is light at the end of the tunnel, sort of. Unna is in her CP150's, closing in on the CP160 milestone.
However, Laurie is struggling to grind up her crafting to catch up. The main issue is that Unna's now finding ruby mats that she can't use - and the relatively large stocks of void mats are mocking her, too. Unna's own crafting levels don't get her the mats Laurie needs either, as they're a tier or two lower. So she has to forage herself, and is climbing up in levels by doing so. At this rate, she'll come close to catching her play level up to her craft levels, and getting uniform mats.
On the bright side, Laurie did get her clothing up to tier 8, so Cat Man Dhou finally has a decent bed to sleep on. Wizwen doesn't, but apparently Wood Elves never do - it's just a hammock, or furs on the floor. As we don't have Breton or Dunmer on the team, those styles get used in the Inn rooms at Daggerfall, and Ebonheart. Spreads hasn't picked out a home yet, so nothing Argonian has been made. She has the Ebony Flask room to herself since Unna got Autumn's Gate, so there's no rush. Blossom has the Rosy Lion, and Taminwe the Mara's Kiss (although CMD stays there too, as Moonmirth is a long way from the nearest wayshrine and/or crafting).
And on that front, we have very few pieces of Nord style, so Unna's wondering where to farm for plans. It's unclear if there's any regional bias in the drops.

Supposedly, you're more likely to find Nord-styled plans in Nord areas, but only about half as much? I always ended up finding a lot of Dunmer stuff regardless of location, so I wonder if it's also based on your PC's race This is also mixed in with provisioning recipes and motifs so who knows how much of a difference it actually makes. == Anyways, now that the "hype" has settled down it really struck me that we're getting a new crafting line. I mean, I should probably wait until we get some details about how it works and how much like the other skills it is, but I feel like I need to mentally prepare myself to level the skill line on flipping everyone just so we can have access to the materials. Also I'm probably turning that planned character into the "official' jeweler outside the Crafting Monkey.

QUOTE(Acadian @ Mar 23 2018, 10:53 AM) Since Unna is closing in on needing CP160 gear, just a warning: CP160 crafting requires about 10 times the mats that CP150 and below gear does. Like if it takes 15 ingots to make a CP150 item, the similar item at CP160 will require about 150 ingots. Roughly. That takes some adjusting/transition to build up the larger number of mats required for top level gear.
I gather that the results are "worth it", and once made, are going to be kept. Since the mats can be gathered anywhere these days, at least Unna will be able to find them in the early zones of each alliance. The real issue, I've read, is that improving the equipment will take materials to which she'll not have easy access. So she'll be waiting for gold for a long time. I'm desperately hoping that "hide pants" will come as part of the Summerset changes, and she'll be able to wear some without the bear knowing. It's preventing her from getting 5+5 set benefits. And jewel crafting could also fix the same problem to some extent, if it makes 5+2+2 a decent alternative.
