I took a look on PTS, where it lets you peek at the furnishings list. Unfurnished (which may be the only option if they give it away), it starts with 289 items, and the cap without ESO+ is 350. Not a lot of headroom, unless they make this an exception?

The Grand Gallery of Tamriel seems to be just off the Rift map, although the entrance is in it. I didn't find any other exit to another zone, unlike The Sword-Singers place, and Sweetwater Cascades, but it looks as if it backs onto Cyrodiil. Quite a few dead-space buildings on the plot, like the two towers at Sword-Singers. This has four at the front.

I'm trying to find a way to get a floor-plan of the interior. The map image outside is a bit misleading, as you have to go through the building to get to the second-level balcony at the back, and then back in to the circular balcony inside the dome.

There are a lot of plinths in the interior rooms that cannot be moved. Possibly you could put raised floors over them, as headroom is huge, but that's a lot of floor pieces. In the main circular hall, several statues are moveable, but the five large ones are part of the support columns and are fixtures. This is going to be a gallery, not a palace.

No furnished preview. This usually means it's not a Crown Store house.

The Haven of the Five Companions one is the final morph for the Molag Bal imp pet. So far you can buy three of the five "keys" from the Impressario, 10 tickets each.

I vaguely remember a presentation where they were talking about the Grand Gallery being designed for holding a bunch of achievement stuff. So it would make sense that there would be shelves and plinths built in so as not to count toward the furnishing limit.

That is it! The Hub page says it won't be available till 2025; but the carpets that come with it clearly say "10'th Anniversary on them = which ends this year; so that kind of threw me. I am still hoping they are giving it to us free; like as a final gift for that Golden Endeavor thing or a gift for Saturalia or something.




I really liked the very end of that vid where they checked out how high and how far away from the house they could get by walking in the air on boards = now THAT was a spectacular view!!!!








The 5 companion one is for sale through the Impressario = buy the 5 keys for 10 Event Tickets each Key (we just bought the third key this Event). Not sure how much they will charge for the morph of the Imp pet though. You can view that house by going through the portal by the Impressario's tents.








It is actually in the Live game now too; but when you click F5 it just says "This house is not available for sale at this time" and so I couldn't tell if there was no option for furnishings. Did they actually let you buy it on the PTS and still no option for furnished?

I hope they sell those rugs in the Crown Store, I really like them. I normally don't buy the bigger houses; but you can build way out and high on this house = meaning a spectacular view looking down into the valley behind the cliff it sits on = gorgeous!






I missed that Twitch; darn it. But I got the feeling you are right about it being for display because of all the built in places to put stuff on display that weren't movable when you moused over them in game.

A thought: the Antiquarian's Alpine Gallery had a collectibles cap of only 40, with ESO+. This one will presumably have 110, which is enough for all the Undaunted trophies, or busts, but not both. They could possibly raise that cap at the expense of something else, to make it even more "gallery".

PTS did not let you buy, but the list of furnishings could be seen. The only preview was unfurnished, which was the same when the Alpine one was in the same state. Live just says "not available", and there are no options in the dialog.

I think the 10th Anniversary is both this year and next from what I understand. This year is ten years on PC, next year is ten years on console. I think...

It is also a year-long thing, and the release on PC was April, so presumably goes at least to April next year. Console was March release, and that anniversary fits inside the year span. That might be the reason for the whole year.

Aw heck; that probably means we will have to jump through more hoops to earn the house then.

Someone was psychic!

Did everyone get it? I was just reading on the ESO forum about someone who left it all to the last day and ran out of time.
