FOUNDATIONS NOTES

One of the main goals of 1.94 was to give housing some love and tweak the utility of the different tiers of housing available. The idea being that each tier should offer something that would justify the added initial and recurring expense of owning that tier. Based on feedback and internal discussion, we’ve made the following initial changes to housing.


Purchase Price:

Cottage: The cost of the cottage deed will remain at 1 platinum.

House: The cost of the house deed will drop from 10 platinum to 5 platinum.

Villa: The cost of the villa deed will drop from 40 platinum to 10 platinum.

Mansion: The cost of the mansion deed will drop from 100 platinum to 25 platinum.


Rental Price:

Cottage: The weekly rental price for the cottage will remain at 20 gold.

House: The weekly rental price for the house will drop from 200 gold to 35 gold.

Villa: The weekly rental price for the villa will drop from 800 gold to 60 gold.

Mansion: The weekly rental price for the mansion will drop from 2 platinum to 100 gold.


Along with the changes above, we are working behind the scenes to add additional utility to each of the tiers. This will mean additional hookpoints of various types for the higher level houses and follow in a subsequent 1.94 patch for this cycle.
