The Wayrest house is the one I use most often when I do master writs. Craft them in my primary then port outside the wayrest house. Turn in since the dude is close by.

I own about 18 homes now, and Sleek Creek & Snugpod are my most used. Sugar Bowl Suite, Ebony Flask Inn, and Captin Margaux's are also pretty good.

Snugput + all cheap rooms in other city's are must have when you have some gold. High isle room and Snugput are only 2 Im using. In High Isle you don't need go downstairs to exit inn(or whatever is that building where room is), you can use doors on 1st floor and exit even faster. If you have gold to spare Wayrest house is great for master writs, but I think its 1M gold.

im so mad that i missed the antiquarian house by a few months

good video as I am trying to expand for storage. The music was a tad to loud so hard for myself, I have hearing issues, to hear you clearly.

My top 5 after HI (price vs utilities): 5. Cyrodilic Jungle House. That house paid every penny, Shrine is just in front door. 4. Vivec City. All is near to that room with two shrines just there. 3. Pilgrim Rest. Blackwood is Blackwood. All just there in two blocks plus shrine. 2. Snug Pod. If u are a master crafter this is the BEST HOUSE u can buy. 1. Highhallow Hold/Ancient Anchor Berth. The best house duo in all TESO. All is there: Stable, Bank, Guilds, Shrine, ToT, Out refuge, Impresario, Guild Traders, Craft Stations, Special Shrines. With Vivec the best city designs in all TESO.

This video looked like a promo for Tales of Tribute lol. The absolute vast majority of players find even the easiest NPC players challenging and unfun, no to mention way too time-consuming, and don't bother at all. Anyway, on topic of the houses - some places I think deserve a honourable mention at least IMO, so in no particular order: - Quondam Indorilia - it is relatively close to Mournhold, although sadly it is in the opposite direction of the trading/crafting district of the city. It is also a big house with spacious courtyard, 2 storey house with a big cellar, so one can go wild decorating it. The walls of the house are all curved and some furnitures are quite challenging to arrange, and it is among the more expensive houses at above 1 mil gold. - Mournoth Keep in Bangkorai while far from big cities, has a wayshrine right outside its gates. Very big courtyard with a big house. Again expensive at 1 mil gold. - Cyrodilic Jungle House - very close to a wayshrine, sweet little house with a courtyard. Below 100k gold price. - Old Mistveil Manor - right outside Riften, a big crafting and trading hub, and as you may have guessed it - spacious enough to decorate it to your heart's desire. 1 mil. gold - Pilgrim's rest (Inn apartment in Leyawiin) - Leyawiin is very convenient city with everything being 5 sec away from each other, and the house is very cheap.

The Cyrodilic Jungle House was my first home and still a personal favorite! I tried to set aside my personal preferences for this video, but I'm also tempted to make a tier ranking video in the future where it's all opinion and I'm not trying to be objective. I do find the divisiveness of ToT interesting too. It feels like no one cares, but I'll typically play enough to get my Rubedite trophy each month, and when I unlock the leaderboard there are always 500+ above me. That might not sound like much, but on PC-NA you can get on the weekly IA Necro leaderboard by just entering the archive.

elden root sucks, u have to go upstairs for the crafting stations and bank and even higher for the guilds, the only real benefit of snugpod is the undaunted enclave, the nearby wayshrine and the nearby access to TG

I'd argue that water's edge or alinor crest are the best ones. I hate having to go through any extra doors/floors

@Kalam0n

Жыл бұрын

Luckily, I play from the mid-Atlantic region of the US, so doors are barely an inconvenience. That being said, Snugpod is still the best (imo) for capital city amenities and Sugar Bowl Suite is just as convenient for crafting/banking but is also the closest you can get to a Wayshine (it also has an exterior door, so no extra doors/floors). But I also rank both Water's Edge and Alinor Crest pretty highly. They are among the best large homes for sure!

Hey I'm planning to buy a notable house from crown store, can you pls tell me which one is the best and why pls?...

@Kalam0n

Жыл бұрын

Sure, long post ahead! Most of the Notable homes are in weird places, so their utility is generally low. Many are also only available in the crown store temporarily, which means unless you're willing to wait, you've really only got 9 options you can count on. Of those 9, Coldharbour Surreal Estate is in arguably the best location but you can also get it for gold. Here's why: The Hollow City has most of the amenities of any other capital city other than an Outlaw's Den and its Daily Writ route is reasonably quick. On PC-NA the traders are run by solid trading guilds, and if you get into decorating, you'll probably be visiting Zanil's Luxury Home Furnishings most weekends (who is stationed in the Hollow City). Oh, and there's no Justice system enforcers there, so if you've racked up a bounty and just want to get your daily writs done without dealing with it, Hollow City is the place to do it. This one isn't really a house though, it's more of a platform for building, but if you only care about functionality, that's another perk. You have plenty of room to set up your in-home storage, armory, merchant, banker, and crafting stations right next to the entrance. If you do want to decorate, this is a fun one because you can basically build whatever house you want out of furnishings. The only 2 that beat it in utility using my ranking system are Highhallow Hold (not available yet), and the Hall of the Lunar Champion (which is only available via quests in Northern Elsweyr). If you want a crown store exclusive notable home, I guess I'd wait for Highhallow Hold, the Princely Dawnlight Palace, or the Stone Eagle Aerie. HH is the clear winner utility-wise but the other two are decent and give you quick access to DLC cities that are useful, but not really daily destinations. I also think they're some of the cooler notable home designs.

I rate it very high. It's just about interchangeable with the Gardner house when it comes to utilities, so really a matter of aesthetic preference / priorities. Both are comparable to Snugpod in utility, but way larger. Snugpod is just slightly closer to the stuff that matters in the city (and is a steal at 45,000g). But if you want the biggest home possible, in one of the capital cities, Quondam is worth it.

should have been titled utility homes. all these tiny homes aren't great for decorating or building home within homes or even buying a home to sell all the furnishings to make goooold. :D plus any inn rooms that port you inside a building that you have to exit isn't my idea of easy access. 1) best house to get is the captain lil house place in daggerfalls right next to bank and ez enough crafting stations(though alchy and woodwerk and cooking a lil spread out but on the way to turn in your daily crafting Q's so it all works out.. after that is the 2) gardener house in wayrest- was my main home for a while until i started building homes within homes and added crafting tables to ALL my houses. :D

You don't have to exit your house though... you can quick travel to the exterior of any home you own. There are also several homes that are closer to specific city amenities than Wayshrines. Snugpod is closer to the Stablemaster, Outlaw's Den, Master Writ Turn-in and Outlaw's Den than most (all?) Wayshrines in the game for example. If you prefer to travel to guildies that's cool, but it's definitely not more efficient or consistent across the board. Craglorn housing sucks, but that's probably also the least consistent zone to travel to a guildie in my experience. I'd much rather quick travel to the exterior of Sugar Bowl and hit the Elsweyr Wayshrine to Belkarth otherwise odds are I'll be on the other side of the zone and have to hit a Wayshrine anyway. Belkarth also isn't a prime location by any means unless you're running Trials, which most of the playerbase is definitely not.
