Housing Guide
Soon you will be able to own a house in Arlor!
Buying a House
- House Vendors in Windmoore, Travelers' Outpost and Glintstone will hook you up.
- Let the House Vendor take you on a tour of each property so you can find the right one for you.
- Houses on the tour will have example furniture to give you an idea of the decorative possibilities.
- There will be four initial houses available:
Decorating
- Each housing floorplan has a furnishing limit; the bigger the house, the larger the limit.
- Once you own a house, you can place furniture and decorations that you buy (or loot)!
- Many items can be purchased for game currencies of various types, others for Platinum.
- Some basic house items drop in Normal Dungeons (tavern items, books, bowls, candles, plates, vases, tables) while cooler unique drops (pillows, paintings, fountains, stills, decorative pets) come from Elites.
- You can buy additional furniture placement space. These extra spaces stay with your character if you change houses.
- Once you place an item, you can customize its location, height, and rotation.
- You and your friends can interact with some items (lie in beds, sit in chairs, turn on or off fireplaces, etc.). These are depicted by a small hand icon in the Place menu.
Upkeep
- Houses require weekly upkeep. This upkeep is paid using a new currency: Estate Tokens.
- Purchase Estate Tokens from the Estate Token vendors in Windmoore, Travelers' Outpost and Glintstone.
- Estate Tokens can be paid for with Story Tokens or with Platinum. There is also a new weekly Estate Token quest.
- Estate Token Kits purchased with Platinum are tradable.
- Small houses only require a few Estate Tokens for upkeep; large houses require more.
- If you run out of tokens your house is unavailable until you can pay the upkeep, but there are no back-taxes (you just need to pay the current week's upkeep).
Social
- Your friends can visit your house and you can visit theirs at any time.
- You can also set your house to Private if you'd prefer to keep all your coolness to yourself.
- Friends can use your house items (like chairs, dartboards, exercise mats) while you are with them.
- Certain special items (like your personal Stash Chest) are only ever available to you.
