Still with the Radiant Apex rewards non purchasable and only through constant gambling? No thanks, though im sure you will net a few whales, less with each season i bet )

WaTeR-aBuSeR

So skins are apex now...

LOL

Why even have tiers at all since it's whatever you feel like throwing in there. To show us that it's a crappy drop rate which we don't even know the rate of. Such logic in these. Not like there was any since the motifs came into play 100 gems higher than other rewards of the same tier which only give 33 gems as dupes instead of 66. Much Greed

So again there are no new costumes in these crates.
All the costumes listed here were in the Crown Store in the past.

It sucks.

So you prefer getting new costumes after spending a random amount of money in crown crates instead of buying them for a fixed amount of crowns ?

You make no sense. I am glad there are no new costumes in the crates.

Don't you mean "Radiant Apex" or is "Radient" the desired spelling? Just curious.

That was a misspelling, and now fixed. Thanks!

Imperial Armor costumes!!! Discontinued right before I started playing - RNGesus was good to me with the Wood Elf Vangaurd last free crate cycle - so I hope he's still listening

Minyassa

Oh man. I hope I get something useless that trades for high gems so I can get that black camel!! Because I will not win it. RNGesus hates me with a fiery passion, apparently I accidentally stepped on its favorite beetle or something.

Each season there are less and less costumes in these crates...wasn't bringing back costumes for ppl who missed them one of the main points of these crates?

Also please bring back that dark shaman costume, its one of ur best designs...

Rajajshka

Yay I have another chance at the black camel, missed it the first time it was released since I didn't have enough for it

victoriana-blue

Darn, I'd hoped the Ice Wolf would be back in the store in December - I got the puppy last year and was considering buying the mount this time 'round. Oh well, maybe I'll get lucky with crown gems.

olsborg

shadow atronach skin would be cool, instead of the fire one

Erai_sedai

Fellow Aussies, does this start Friday 11am for us?

taiyoukei

*makes GIVE ME gestures at the Akaviri motif*

Just wish the skin was like the Bloodforged one; available in the crown store instead of in those darn crates.

Joreel

So does this mean no ESO+ players get crates too? Or do you have to have to sub first...

Juhasow

Just bring back Dragon Priest costume already !

It's available for all players that log in and kill any enemy NPC or creature, but only 3 per account.

I'm not a fan of the crate idea I'd rather not gamble that said yes I've bought crates. My issue is why are momentos, cosmetics, mounts, etc....not allowed to be extracted? I don't like unrealistic mounts (sorry people please don't kill me), I just am not into riding around on a cat, wolf, and other weird type mounts. I don't want an atronach mount but if I get one it's going to be in my collections and I"ll have no option to trash it for gems. Hell I'd rather trash it for gems and buy some riding skills for my alts. I have a lot of stuff in my cosmetic libraries with poor organization (sorry but I think face markings need to be split into make-up with both full face, lips, and eyeshadow and than war paint) obviously you can add more categories.

And I've gone into ranting so to recap:

Please allow us to Extract Gems from cosmetics we don't know (if you need to know how to do this just make them into bound runeboxes). This includes the oh so rare and covenanted radient level items. Not everyone covenants them especially when you stick the reins to the Dwarven horse with no sign of a bit and than by the looks of the cartoon-ish head of the Dwarven horse compared to the rest of the Dwarven mounts it seems like someone only spent 5 mins designing it. Also I don't want to have armors in my Costume Library where they have overlarge flying shoulders - really disappointed with the Ordinator's armor and Naryu's leather armor.

Ack sorry again I'm starting to rant. Have a good Thanksgiving or whatever you celebrate or just a good week.

altemriel

they all look very good!!

while I hate to participate in the gamble crates, the free crates weekend is really great!!
thank you for it!

Zaldan

just what I need more clown gems lol

AdamBourke

There are some really cool things in here.

I have to hope I get them in the free crates, because I won't be buying any.

I hope Belgium moves quickly in establishing laws against these in Europe.

Belegnole

Nifty, sounds like someone really needs to inflate their numbers. Well I'll be playing anyway so I'm happy to help you out.


Btw, anything you have something for is not free....just saying.

same thing with skin :facepalm this is ... sad.

But atleast it's not a skin related to difficult content. ( 1 positive point )

Well, I understand selling it in Crown Store like Blood-forged, but now hide it inside Crates so now you have to invest a lot of money and win fight against rng just to get cosmetic..
Gladly it ugly
And that's without new Crowns sales, seems kinda not smart move.

iRWalber

I am very happy to know that the Elder Council will return now on the 28th, I started playing eso within less than a month and I really wanted this costume.

IgnisDrakkon

Can ZOS just consider selling us the Fire Atronach Mounts directly, instead of putting them behind the gambling boxes/crates? I'm a big supporter of ESO and I buy practically everything in the Crown Store (literally and you can check), but I've always felt bad about doing the Crown Crates since they're gambling (and I think it's clear many others now feel the same way). And now that this issue has gained traction because of AAA games and the sentiment is that they are indeed gambling, maybe it's time for ZOS to consider just selling the items directly so that fans like me can just buy the items we want, without the ethical issues that loot boxes bring with it.

Nightfall12

Well it seems the mighty pocket mammoth has been reduced to a lowly entry level reward…If only it were a mount…i don't care if its tiny i wanna ride it.

spisarevski

I can open this page just fine, or any ESO forums page really, but for some reason I cannot open the "Introducing the Flame Atronach Crown Crates & Giveaway Weekend" page.

It gives me "This site can’t be reached

www.elderscrollsonline.com unexpectedly closed the connection."

Any input?
