Maximize Your Gold in Update 47 of The Elder Scrolls Online
The Elder Scrolls Online (TESO) 's Update 47 has officially launched for PC players, and console users can look forward to diving into it on September 9. This exciting patch brings a wealth of opportunities to earn TESO gold while exploring new content and features. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a casual adventurer, Nessaeria's guide will walk you through the most lucrative methods to maximize your gold-making potential in Update 47.
Make Gold Right Now with New Dungeon Motifs
New Dungeons Introduced with Fallen Banners DLC:
Lep Seclusa Dungeon (Veteran): Drops Militant Monk Style Pages
Exiled Redoubt Dungeon (Veteran): Drops Exile's Revenge Style Pages
Each of the new dungeons from the Fallen Banners DLC has introduced matching motifs that are currently dropping on veteran difficulty. These motifs are likely to sell for a high price initially, though prices may decrease over time as the dungeon ages. However, given the dungeon's difficulty, these motifs might retain their value longer than usual. If you haven't tackled these dungeons yet, now is the perfect time to challenge yourself on veteran mode to collect these motifs for personal use or to sell for substantial gold on Guild Traders.
Additionally, the motifs for the new dungeons introduced with Feast of Shadows aren't available yet, but they are expected to drop in the next update or two, possibly even within Update 47. Keep an eye out for them in the Crown Store, as ESO will provide another lucrative opportunity for gold-making.
New Furnishings and Furnishing Plans
This year also saw the release of the zone of Solstice, which offers daily quests that yield motifs and furnishing plans that can still fetch a decent amount of gold. With Update 47, many new furnishings are being introduced, making this a prime opportunity to earn gold. Furnishings are always in demand when a new update launches, especially from players who may not have access to the Solstice zone.
There will be 52 new furnishing plans sourced from four locations:
• 7 new Master Writ furnishings are available for purchase from Rolis Hlaalu.
• 26 new structural furnishing plans are obtainable via the Solstice Reward Coffer from completing daily quests related to the Solstice World Boss or Delve.
• 11 plans can be earned during the Battle for Writhing Wall event.
• 8 new art and bird-themed recipes can be found from monsters and containers across Tamriel.
Structural furnishing plans tend to hold their value well, especially with a unique style blend like Alinor crossed with the Tide-Born Argonian style. This makes them highly sought after, so be sure to participate in daily quests to collect these plans. A great strategy is to complete daily quests on multiple characters but hold off on turning them in until Update 47 goes live to maximize your chances of receiving the new drops.
If you've been saving Writ tickets for master furnishings, now is a great time to spend them to generate gold. The new art and bird-themed recipes could also become valuable, so keep an eye out for them while questing or farming.
Get Rich During the New Global Event: Writhing Wall Event
The Writhing Wall event is set to kick off in September, offering even more gold-making opportunities. You'll be able to earn 11 new furnishing plans from reward coffers during this event, along with other valuable rewards. Completing repeatable quests will yield unique items such as:
• Unique Skill Style Fragments: "Caltrops, Bone"
• Unique Outfit Style: "Wormwrithe" Style Pages
• Unique Pet Fragments: "Wormwrithe Haj Mota Hatching"
• (Siege Camp Quests Only) Unique Motif Pages: "Fellowship of Stirk"
These items could command high prices right after their release. However, drop rates may affect their value, so consider holding onto them for a few months after the event if you think they'll appreciate in value.
Later in the patch notes, it mentions that six new furnishings will drop during the Writhing Wall event, and future updates will introduce recipes for crafting duplicates. This means both the furnishings and future recipes will be profitable.
Quality of Life Improvement: Stackable Survey Maps
Another exciting feature in Update 47 is the introduction of stackable survey maps. Similar to Master Writs, these surveys will now stack in folders and won't reveal the zone until opened. This change not only improves inventory management but also allows these folders to be sold on guild traders, adding another potential gold source.
If you have old surveys lying around, now's the time to complete them to gather resources like Columbine, Corn Flower, and Platinum, which can also be sold for a good amount of gold.
Final Thoughts
Update 47 is packed with opportunities to earn gold while exploring exciting new content in ESO. From dungeon motifs and furnishing plans to global event rewards and stackable survey maps, there's something for every player looking to bolster their financial standing in Tamriel.
Whether you're farming motifs, completing daily quests, or participating in events, this update provides numerous ways to turn your efforts into substantial profits. So gear up, dive into the new content, and make the most of what Update 47 has to offer!
