As was mentioned in the GU60 Crafting and Housing Preview, two new prestige homes appeared on the Test/Test_copy servers while we were testing Game Update 60. The Kromzek one should be a raid drop of some sort, the Thurgadin one will apparently be a Station Cash item "soon".
Luxurious Kromzek Keep
Once you've been knocking around raiding in Velious, apparently your perceptions of size get changed quite a bit. Hanging around with giants will do that to you, it seems.
No, really, this raid-dropped home will give even the tallest player a feeling of being itty-bitty, and those of us that are vertically challenged will feel really, really, really tiny.
This place is HUGE! Ginormous!
See for yourself!
Don't fall! That's a longggggggg way down off the entry bridge!

Looking back at the front door
|
Then turning around and looking into the home
|
Did I mention how huge it is?
|
Interesting "windows" in some rooms
|
One room has straw in it - guess they stable their critters inside the keep?
|
This may seem like a normal large room
|
until you look up ...
|
...and up some more!
|
Looking up from the main room - there are no stairs, and it is a long way up!
|
Thurgadin Grand Hall
My neck hurt after after touring this one, so I followed word on Test that there was a new home in Thurgadin, as well. Nobody seems willing to shed light on how/when this home will be available, but I had fun touring it! Of course, after touring a giant home, I was looking forward to something a bit, well, smaller, from the dwarves ... however, as the name of the place implies, small is not an option!
Entry is through the back of the Thurgadin crafting area
|
I'm feeling shorter by the minute!
|
That door in the back right of the pic is the entrance
|
Lots of decorating challenges with irregular walls and such
|
Lovely wall art, but where does the ramp lead to?
|
What could be better than two waterfalls in your home?
|
How about a fountain centered between the two falls?
|
Did I mention how large it all is?
|
That is all the eye-candy from me. If you want a video tour of them, you can check out the Zam article about these homes.
