Player housing question

[Stilletto]

Does everyone have the chance to get an apartment style home for free?
Is it only the larger homes that require payments and are limited?

[Averad]

All homes require a small payment for upkeep.

[Tinr]

Ahhh.. I was under the impression that the started aptments were free.

Thanks for the info...are all the houseing limited or if someone buys the game 2 months from now can they get a place? All of your toons can use the same house?

[Findarato]

all houses are currently instanced. So you can always get a house.

The upkeep is due every week, not sure what happens if you let the house go for a coupple weeks and not pay. Not sure there, I do know the next time you go in after your week is up you have to pay, or collect your items and leave.

Heh ya that would be bad to be evicted from your eq 2 home lol!!
I wonder if there is any housing authority or renters laws hehe!!!

I just read a faq that said no race abilities like troll regen 8( and no shared bank!! so ya have to hand off to a friend and hope ya really know um to get an item to another one of your toons? The money change is a good thing i think... 1/100 instead of 1/10 so 100 gold = 1 plat

I can see it now... you get evicted from your EQ2 home for missing rent due to too much time being spent in RL.. theres irony for ya

I beleave (not being a trade skiller yet) that you can put crafted chests in your home that are storage devices. I think i read a article on that from the devs. I am not 1005 sure it works yet but they are also planning TS stations that can be put in your apts. also you use your house to sell from, (no more bazaar ).

When I first got to Qeynos, I had to rent a room (as part of becoming a citizen I believe). Is this different from buying a house? If not, how do you find your place? It's been awhile since I've been home lol.

Your apartment is where you left it, in the Inn of your noob town. (In Qeynos for gnomes, haflings would be the Baubleshire, etc. In freeport Longshadow's alley, etc.)

You would probably owe a couple of weeks maintenance so be ready to fork over some of that hard fought silver.

WOAH people... WOAH.... settle down there. LOL

Houses = Worth it

Crafting = if you're not one... whats wrong with you? I made lots of money crafting and you better believe I'm starting the game off being a crafter while everyone else tries powerleveling with crap gear!

Houses = Yes you can eventually store gear in there with chests and the like

Houses = Yes you can sell your crafting items from your house

Houses = Yes, higher upkeep houses ROCK and you can host meetings there before you get your guild hall.
