Are the non-themed items that have not been previously in the crown store exclusive to crates as well? (such as the purple daggerback pet we saw on the PTS)
How many gems can you get for trading in consumables?
Is the gem conversion rate still *just under* 1/3 of the gem cost to actually get that item?
Actually there is new info here. You can now buy crown crates in bundles and you can now convert potions and other utility into crown store gems. Other then that the details are light.

We already new this. And they had already hinted at bundles I think.
Well in that case I do feel a lot better. Though I'm still firmly against these crates (or more specifically, anything EXCLUSIVE being in the crates - I'm perfectly fine with it being an alternative OPTION in their business model, but the moment something EXCLUSIVE is put in it ceases to be an OPTION to gain said items) and I can sympathize with anyone who would actually like these. Personally speaking, I don't like seeing those super flashy atronach mounts in the game at all, but the fact they are there in the game and someone might actually want them... I am not unsympathetic and think it's shameful that they're found only in RNG crates.silvereyes wrote: »It's not. It's a memento that only lasts a few seconds.

Then it is really settled, Thursday is the day ESO as we know it dies.
Shameful indeed.
I think I'm disappointed that ZOS' mods are clearly following this thread and taking action on posts than simply providing answers. Any answers. I've come to realize that the "Official Discussion Threads" are just for players to discuss it, not for staff to interact.
Agreed. ESO won't die, but there will always be a lingering concern over what may come next in said crates. But death of ESO? The only way that would happen is if pay to win items were there, and as long as they're cosmetic... it'll be fine. I may hate them, but it'll be fine.
Second? We "died" when Wildstar launched, then Archeage, then WOW:WOD, then console delay, then "Cash Shop", then B2P, then Blade and Soul, then Black Desert, then One Tamriel, then Crown Crates, then . . .

And with all the concern players have over the crates this would be the one time to step in and answer those questions.
