Would you like an event that gave us more transmute crystals as a reward?

I love this undaunted event but I dont need anymore keys, would have been nice to get double the transmute crystals, especially since we have subclassing now..I know I'm making new builds so need more transmutes.

    The event is already dropping substantially more than double transmute crystals. Every reward box you open drops some.

    I haven't received any transmutes this event aside from the usual reward from the pledge turn ins. I opened maybe 14 boxes so far, which I know isn't a lot, but I should have seen at least one box with transmutes? Unless you mean the daily randoms, which I don't do.

    Previous event boxes gave us a chance for a handful of transmutes, I really appreciated those.

    I like to have the extra keys. Especially since I can buy skill styles with them now.

    Extra transmutes would be cool too but I think they need to take the limit off. We should be able to hold an unlimited amount. Without this change an event giving more transmutes probably wouldn't help many people.

    I always have too many transmute crystals. Even with +. To save space I reconstruct equipment that only costs 25 crystals and store it for times when I have a greater need. When I deconstruct these items I get 25 back.
    But I can imagine that it might take a while for new players to get enough. Perhaps the first character per account that reaches level 50 should receive a cushion of 200 crystals or even more to make it a little easier. But only once per account of course.

    If you do some dailies you get so many...random normal, pledges, lvl 1 of a cyrodiil campaign....
    But the easiest way just do 1 battleground a day...usually enough to get a rewards of the worthy coffer - the first one you open a day gets you a guaranteed 25 and if you win the bg you get a one a day coffer with another 10 (plus 2 style pages plus a battle master token if you do the quest)...

    What i would like is that the transmute crystal limit was removed or increased to 5000

    I drown in transmutes and rather need additional sinks that are more useful than just transmute for some nirncrux.

    Not needed. There is already an extreme glut of transmute crystals in game.

    What they need to do is give us the option to sell our extra crystal containers.

    I'd rather they give us something to *do* with transmutes. Lol. I realize not everyone is in this boat, but I have thousands of them stored, I'll probably never need more for the entire remaining life of the game.

    So sure, more crystals for people who need them, but let us turn them in at a vendor for something, or sell or trade them or idk, anything really.

    The buying and selling of transmute boxes would be a huge QoL improvement for both those who need them and those who have too many of them already.

    Yes, 100%, I'm constantly out of transmutes and it's been one of the hardest parts for me when it comes to harder content, I'm literally just prevented from obtaining the set parts I need until I play enough days. For vets that are drowning in transmutes - admit it, you are just too lazy/greedy to convert it to item pieces to deconstruct and sell the mats, so you keep amassing it for no other reason than "I don't want to destroy it". Granted, I do think there should be more ways for you to spend them, as well, like maybe exchange 1000 transmutes for an event ticket or something.

    So I'm "lazy" because I run content and obtain a lot of transmutes.
    And I'm "greedy" because I don't convert them to mats to sell.
    (And since you just assumed, I do actually destroy them regularly and have been doing so for years. And literally just requested a couple posts up to be able to trade them to players who do need them. Greed at its finest here!).

    Got it. Thanks for the valuable input.

    no, I'm constantly maxed out on TCs and need to delete every tc cache I get, even if I do something like transmute all gear to nirnhoned or something and then salvage I'd still fill up far too quickly. If anything I think TCs should stop dropping when you're at cap so they stop taking precious inventory space.

    Or running a random dungeon who give 10, an HM pledge give 5, but yes PvP give most, I love the 50 crystal geodes from the campaign reward. Has over 50 of them 😺

    I would be so happy if they upped the transmute crystal limit, but it wouldn't fix the underlying issue: once you have all the gear you need, earning transmutes becomes a hassle rather than a reward. Not everyone runs into this because not everyone does pledges/RNDs/PvP, but those who do end up with thousands and thousands and thousands of spare transmutes and nothing to spend them on.

    Newer players might prioritize transmutes for reconning gear, and that's fine, but it would be really nice if ZoS would consider introducing some mechanism for vet players to feel like their vast transmute hoards aren't wasted. Skill styles and style pages got added to the Undaunted key vendors, for example; a new rotating merchant was added to the existing offerings for Tel Var; Infinite Archive has a diverse and dynamic selection for Fortunes. I think a similar option for transmute crystals would be very well-received.

    Thanks, note that you can spread out the reward of the worthy mail opening say you only play in Cyrodil in weekends and get 4 you open one the same day, the next the day after and so on so guarantee 100.
    This would also give you an 50 crystal geode as enough for campaign reward.

    I currently have a name reserver character that I’m holding on to until ZOS finally gives me a new Class so I can make him officially, and at this point he’s strictly my RftW holder. 25 transmutes a day from him, and he’s got a lot more boxes in storage.

    Vengeance will give you loads for fairly little work as you can just find your side's doom train and zerg around with it and the reward boxes quite commonly have them in.

    I’d rather them just buff the sources of transmute in general than shove it into an event. Dungeons are my main content and I have 0 desire to do the event because I don’t want to deal with people speeding through for rewards. Event should be made better, not worse.

    ATM I have 16 characters, half that are set up to daily run randoms, trials, and undaunted (DD, tanks, and a healer) and all can repair walls in cyro one day a month. For people like me that are drowning in keys and transmutes it might seem odd to want more ways to obtain them but that's the very reason I started this setup to begin with as I like to experiment a LOT with different builds, requiring re-creating several sets(there never is enough storage) so yes, anything that helps those that don't have multiple characters and avoid pvp I'd say go for it.
