    For Release 35, we are expanding the number of Gold Crown merchants in the game and also increasing the goods they sell to include many more items from the Add-On Store. We are also going to add one or two items each future release that can only be purchased in game with Crowns. For R35, the Elven Globe Home and Medium Elven Tent will be those items only purchasable for Gold Crown Exclusives that are being added.
    • Elven Crown Home Merchant: This merchant will be located in the town of Vertas and will sell all the Elven homes and all the Add-On Store items that appear in the Elven Bundles (except Bundle exclusives like the Elven Wardrobes and the pets) as well as a few exclusive items including the Elven Globe Home and Medium Elven Tent.
    • Viking Crown Home Merchant: This merchant will be located in the town of Harvest and will sell all the Viking homes and all the Add-On Store items that appear in the Viking Bundles (except Bundle exclusives like the Viking Chests and the pets) .
    • Obsidian Alchemists: We will also be adding Fireworks (4 different assortments) and various dyes (including all the new magical dyes) to the Obsidian Alchemists to increase their inventory beyond the Obsidian Potions.
    We are also creating a new web page that will list all the things that you can spend Gold Crowns on in the game, as well as locations of merchants. Stay tuned for that page to be revealed!

    Can there be notes on the descriptions of add-on store items that can be bought in-game?

    I was hoping this would happen, makes dealing with trades easier then having to rely on a strangers integrity.

    @Berek could you post a picture of this Elven Globe home? I have never seen it.

    Are the listed vendors the only ones being added, or will there also be more locations that will have the existing crown merchants?

    Was the Gold Crown of the Obsidian merchant web page ever released?

    Yes but the link to it is hidden in the R35 release notes. Here it is for easy reference;

    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?page_id=64674


    @Berek
    You really need to have a direct link to it from the main site, preferably in the "Store" menu.

    We do! It's a tad hidden still though... something we're looking at resolving with a new main store page.
