moo_2021✭✭✭✭✭Is this supposed to be discouraging?
I too got the bundle and was dismayed by how few gems earned compared to the last of my all-maker crates.4 -

if your opening a brand new set of crates, then your gem return will be lower because of all the collectibles that you dont have from the crates, as you roll more of them you get more collectible dupes that convert into gems instead of just go straight to your collections
you only have the option to gem first rolls of consumables or furnishings, but not collectibles (weapon/gear styles, mementos, emotes, polymorphs, mounts, pets)2 -

Isn't it hard to get dupes though unless you whale really hard. They are often making new crates, and I assume it's entirely new items in the crates every time.0 -

its not too hard, just buying the 25 crate bundle, even after about 5 crates i was starting to get occasional dupes, by crate like 15 or so, i was getting almost 1 dupe every crate open2 -

But crowns to gem ratio is still pretty expensive considering the prices though.0 -

i never said it was good lol
the gems are literally the consolation prize for those who dont want consumables, or getting dupes of collectibles you can only collect once
cheaper to save up endeavors to buy priority items, buying crown crates is virtually never worth it (dont get what you want most of the time and poor gem return)0 -

you can get everything from crown crates with endeavors, though the rate you earn them your definitely not going to be able to actually buy all of the items from a single crate in season
basically anything you can spend crown gems on, you can spend endeavors on0 -

✭I bought the latest bundle (mage-themed) and was disappointed. One legendary reward. Nothing above that. And tons of duplicates. I'm not encouraged to buy more.1 -

Oh cool, didn't know.
Must have seen "featured items" when I checked the endeavor store.
Just a pain that they take so long to farm lol.0 -

the current rough earn rate is ~500 per week (this can vary a bit but its pretty close), this is from the normal endeavors, not bonus endeavors granted from stuff like login rewards
radiant apex mounts are 16k endeavors, apex tier is 8k, i think the next tier under that is 3600
so assuming the earn rate of 500 per week, it takes approximately 32 weeks (8 months) to earn enough for 1 radiant apex mount
i havent really seen any radiant apex mounts i really wanted, so most of the items ive bought with endeavors ended up being in the apex tier (8k endeavors worth)
if theres a crate that you know has a radiant apex mount in it you like, you can save up 16k and hold on to that base amount until the crate comes back, and you can continue earning more to spend on other stuff you like0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I won't tell you how many Crown Crates I bought just to get enough gems (via duplicate items or trade in for gems) to buy the Altered Ornaug for my new Sorc character. I'm sure ZOS loves me though.
However, I also tend to buy Crowns during sales, which is why I went a bit overboard this time, since they had a sale going on. CP: 1965 ** ESO+ Gold Road ** ~~ Stamina Arcanist ~~ Magicka Warden ~~ Magicka Templar ~~ ***** Strictly a solo PvE quester *****0 -

50 or less.
only cheap consumables, not even worthy ones.Edited by moo_2021 on 11 April 2024 19:500 -
mikejezz✭✭✭✭
So you only got cheap consumables in 25 crates?! Which converted to 50 gems?
Totally not worth it.
There must be some gamble addicts around because I can't imagine people toss more money after these crates after getting 25 with only crap worth 50 gems1 -
moo_2021✭✭✭✭✭There must be some gamble addicts around because I can't imagine people toss more money after these crates after getting 25 with only crap worth 50 gems
I recall first 25 All Maker gave me at least a few hundreds, definitely not 50.
Anyway the best way to get gems is to buy the same crate you already unlocked many rewards for. So I'm not going to spend on crates again until it's back, unless the next radiant mounts are really good.0 -

Do the same crates potentially rotate?
The fire and frost crates hasn't been there for years have they?0 -

crates do usually come back, but it can range from months to years before they come back1
