yippie!
very happy to see Buccaneer Bay release in April.

that Oblivion recall looks cool

Thank you for Order of the lamp Crates!

Seeing they'll stay up more than 30 days I wonder if it's part of a new direction and in May showcase we'll see another returning crate for that month despite this one already being there...

@ZOS_Kevin the Dreams of Yokuda Music Box is listed as a new item, despite the fact that it has returned multiple times in the past.

Crate rotation is nonsense.

I wonder if we’ll see another returning crate in May, because many of us have Endeavors and Crowns to spend on something else, yet you choose to keep a single crate in the store for two months.

There are more than 40 crates in the game, and some of them return only after years. By the time a crate comes back to the store, some players are literally dead.

Please drop this silly policy and either make all crates available or at least rotate 5–6 of them every few months. You say you want to reduce FOMO, but this system is one of the biggest sources of FOMO in the game.

That Dapper Daredevil bundle is beautiful! Also: yay for houseguest Captain Za'ji!

I also like the statuette for ESO plus. Some very nice offerings indeed.

Of course, they add an oblivion portal recall and it has to be big and obnoxious, it can't just look like the already existing portals we see people and creatures use in the game. When will we get more subtle recalls that doesn't cause light and sound pollution to ourselves and everyone around?

The thing is that recall animations related to the daedric princes, or specific factions in game, for example, would actually be a nice thing. I'm not interested in cosmetics that much, but if it's something that absolutely fits my character's background, as a roleplayer I might still consider buying it. But absolutely not if it's huge and obtrusive. I would feel ike an obnoxious nuisance for using it around other people, disturbing their gameplay, and I don't want that. So: No buy.

Also happened when it comes to mounts before. I saw one I actually found interesting, and it would have also fit one of my characters well. But it had a huge, screen-obscuring summoning animation, so, no. Not even "but perhaps", but a clear no. Huge flash effects -> no. It's that simple.

Agreed. I'd mentioned this to someone before, but there are already oblivion portals in the game that are not obtrusive, yet still fitting for roleplay. And certainly less dramatic to be opening in the middle of a bank at 8am in Wayrest. They should have been chosen instead.

That's because it's actually supposed to be Music Box, Duel of the Seablades but whoever compiled the article copied the wrong thing.

They are actually both in the Crown Store now. It looks like the Yokuda music box image and description have been moved down to Returning Items in the article; however, the new Duel of the Seablades image and description are still missing from the article entirely.

It would be nice if they could be added.

It's not showing on the web version of the Crown Store as well:

The article says Order of the Lamp crates will be on sale for more than 30 days but in-game it says 14 days countdown sooo... What's the truth?

Just so we know. Not a judgement...

Why can you only buy the 25 pack once? With other crates, there's normally a 25 crate option separate of the bundle, but there's just the single-purchase bundle for these. It looks like the 15 crate option is the highest repeatably purchasable one. Is this an oversight or intentional?
