Patch 2.38 exposes THE TRUTH about the goblet

[MomomiMomi]

I think Lavender Beds is the ugliest one. Looks so artificial.

[Erudain]

Its a desert, since when does a house in a desert look good? Unless you're some warlord or a dictator.

The Goblet is vertical too and is 100% stone in addition - bad look.

100% stone? You must not visit the same Goblet where my FC house is then. I love it, feels actually urban. The other two cities and their wards don't feel like cities. They feel like outposts and a resort.

I'm holding out for personal housing until they open up wards in Coerthas. They probably won't, but an Elezen can dream.

But I love The Goblet and hate Lavender Beds, you know... maybe they should redesign Lavender Beds since I don't like it! Or, they could just not... because not everyone shares the same opinion as me or you.

The most of housing benefits are for noncombatants. Crafter needs calm place to work (city market is too noisy) with fast access to market board, retainers (can be placed into FC house), aetherial (distinct supplier) and a house (fc supplier).
So, the best place for this is Lavender Beds. Mist is more "vertical" (stairs everywhere) but is still green and looks nice. The Goblet is vertical too and is 100% stone in addition - bad look.

Maybe there are another reasons, but for me this was the most important.

Actually we obtained a house on the goblet back when they released the 6th ward and the Mb and bell are right infront of the house.

It was also my first choice.

The Goblet is the best looking area IMHO

1. Goblet
2. Mist
3. Lavender Beds

[Nandalowell]

I too think the Goblet is beautiful as is.

[Genz]

The "problem" with the goblet as a housing area is, it's a little hard to get nice view of the area.

But it isnt ugly ; it's too good to be a housing area actually.

My FC is in the Goblet . plot 13 has a beautiful view of the waterfall , mountains , and plaza below
