ESO Golden Vendor: What You Need to Know About the Special Vendor
By Jack O'Dwyer
ESO Golden Vendor is a special vendor in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) who arrives every weekend with a rotating set of powerful wares.
Adhazabi Aba-daro, the true name of the Golden Vendor, appears every weekend from midnight EST on Friday to the same time on that Sunday. She appears in Cyrodiil and has a set location for each faction to find her. Aldmeri Dominion players will spot her at the Western Elswyer Gate. Ebonhart Pact players can find her in the Southern Morrowind Gate area. Daggerfall Covenant players can locate her around the Northern High Rock Gate.
ESO Golden Vendor
As her name suggests, Adhazabi Aba-daro is a female khajiit with auburn fur and dark spots. She wears what many veteran players could recognize as one of the pirate costumes introduced to the Crown store years prior. She was first brought into the game with the Thieves' Guild DLC and has since made PvP gear much more accessible to PvE players.
Every item she carries can be bought with either gold or Alliance Points (AP) earned during the Cyrodiil campaign. Traits on each item are random. Her wares include four "legendary-quality" jewelry and two "epic-quality" gear pieces in this pattern:
- Two Dungeon-exclusive jewelry pieces that become Bound
- Two "Overland" jewelry pieces, found on the map, that can be traded
- Two Monster set pieces in each weight (light, medium, heavy)
During the Midyear Mayhem PvP event, she also offers Cyrodiil set jewelry pieces that can only be purchased with AP.
For example, this weekend, May 29—Jun 1, 2020, she offered the following:
- Ring of Ursus – Healthy 250,000g / 500,000AP (Dungeon: March of Sacrifices)
- Lamia’s Ring – Arcane 250,000g / 500,000AP (Dungeon: Arx Corinium)
- Spinner’s Ring– Arcane 150,000g / 300,000AP (Overland: Malabal Tor)
- Ring of the Veiled Heritance– Healthy 150,000g / 300,000AP (Overland: Auridon)
- Pirate Skeleton’s Helm – Infused / Impenetrable (Light, Medium, Heavy) 100,000g / 200,000AP (Monster: Veteran Blackheart Haven/Undaunted Glirion)
- Malubeth the Scourger’s Helm – Infused / Impenetrable (Light, Medium, Heavy) 100,000g / 200,000AP (Monster: Veteran Wayrest Sewers II, Undaunted Maj al-Ragath)
