U44 Imperial City Revamp

Update 44 will bring an Imperial City revamp! Imperial Keys, vaults, vendors, and reward restructuring are all in progress. Here's what we know so far.

Imperial Fragments

Imperial Keys and Imperial Key Fragments will both be converted into a brand new currency called ‘Imperial Fragments’.  Imperial Fragments will be available account-wide.  

Any keys or fragments that you currently have will be automatically converted from your inventory or when you add them to your inventory from banks, guild traders, etc.  Beginning with Update 44, enemies will drop the new currency.  Unlike Tel Var Stones you will not lose this currency if you die.

Open Vault Doors

All vault doors in both Imperial City, Imperial City Prison, and White-Gold Tower will be permanently open with Update 44.  New vendors will replace the treasure chests that were once there.  The new vendors will offer many of the items that were once contained in the treasure chests.  They will also offer additional item sets and collectibles.  Instead of opening a treasure chest, you will purchase items with the new Imperial Fragments currency.  The set offerings from these vendors will be spread out across all six vaults in Imperial City and the two vaults in the two dungeons.  This is intentional to encourage players to visit all the locations.

Sewer Vendors

Imperial City Sewer vendors will be renamed with Update 44.  The Tel Val Armorer and Tel Var Grand Armorer will no longer sell individual armor pieces.  Instead, they will sell item set containers similar to the Elite Gear Vendor.

The Tel Var Jewelry Merchant will be renamed Tel Var Rotating Merchant.  This merchant will offer a rotating stock of goods including:

  • gold PvP jewelry
  • mythic antiquity leads
  • skill styles
  • skill style fragments
  • treasure map containers
  • scripts for scribing

The Tel Var Lockbox Merchant will be renamed the Tel Var Collectibles Merchant.  This merchant will offer:

  • Xivkyn polymorphs
  • Siege of Cyrodiil glue items (used with Siege of Cyrodiil Merits)
  • Dragonguard Berserker style pages
  • Red Rook Garb style pages

The Tel Var General Merchant will only offer crafting materials, glyphs, soul gems, style items, and furnishings.

Achievement Changes

A few acheivements associated with Imperial City Keys and Key Fragments will also change.  The following achievements will be removed:  Key Collector, Imperial City Locksmith, Imperial City Dungeon Locksmith.  

If you, prior to Update 44, have already acquired the Key Collector achievement, you will automatically receive the new Imperial Fragment Collector achievement.

Note:  All this information is based on PTS.  Many things can and will be changed during PTS until the final Update 44 release.  Keep checking back for more information.
