Stupid body markings

Kruspinator

#1 Buy a crowncrate and know that 3/4 loot you get is only stupid consumables that you will transfer into gems
#2 50% off al crowncrate you use will give you body markings which are not visible on vampire characters

So, i opened quited alot of those new crown crates with my well deserved crowns. And moslty i got those "body markings".
I don't know if the devs still have the opinion about "play the way you like" but as a magicka player i prefer to keep my vampire. But with the vampire stage active it isn't even possible to see the f...... body markings(isn't this discrimination?), this gives the idea that devs don't want you to play a vampire. So how about making body markings visible on any race/gender/role/skin


tldr; crates are ripoff bleakers wasn't an exploit

If qq press this

Most of them are also all but invisible on Dunmer, since rather than making the tattoos black they made them only slightly darker grey then Dunmer skin (you get the same issue with the Morag Tong tattoos, despite them being made for Dunmer)

Nobody at ZOS plays a Dunmer obviously.

Vampire character's should be able to get body markings.
Yes please!

Have players ever been warned about crown crates? Ever?

Is this the first crown crate complaint thread? Ever?

It's not really about crown crates but what's IN the crown crates. Aside from mounts & some pets the rest of the content is underwhelming. I received a Bravil retriever a while back that does absolutely nothing. It's cute but there's only an idle animation. Doesn't scratch. Doesn't chase anything. It just stands there. The costumes are plain and many things are reused like the baggy pants inspired by MC Hammer, the tattoos and markings are rough (did someone just use MS paint to add a single swash of color?).

I rarely rant about anything but yeesh... create some inspiring content please.

I know that the Buoyant Armiger Body & Face tattoos given by Vivec are the only two that I know of that are visible on a vampire character. (pretty interesting if you ask me.)

Amusingly, a lot of the current round of body and face markings actually override the vampirism fade. So, you can wear them on your vampire if you want.

These tattoos should have either a dark or light selection. That way with any skin color they would show up better.

You didn't know that TL;DR before you got them?

It's been pretty well documented at this point how stacked against you the crates are.

Its hard to see but there is something there, just HARD to see

They really need to fix these tattoos for vampires. Make them actually *** visible for crying out loud.

I'm blue dabadeedabadei...

I have an Argonian too. I had good results with the scales and the horns adornment. I agree though that body markings are trash most times.

To possibility to dye tattoos will be awesome, well get more options to customize our characters.

badmojo

You are min/max'ing and complaining about the cosmetics of it?

Cure your vampirism....problem solved.

EvilAutoTech

Shouldn't tattoos be more visible on a vampire? They have no blood flowing to the pale, pasty, thin outer skin to interfere with them showing.

While I agree with this for the face tattoo there aren't really any armor motifs that show enough skin to make the body tattoos interesting.

DeadlyRecluse

The body marking+vampire issue has been around forever, and I've yet to see it acknowledged. Even a "buzz off, it's not changing" would at least curtail the endless dicussion.

Lots of costumes show off plenty of skin for body tattoos, and Mazzatun armor also displays quite a bit of some tattoos.

i'd like to this this be more constructive of criticism.

if you only received food items and tattoo skins from the crate box - and that was all - perhaps you could be like:
i really love tattoo skins and food buffs. when i am a vampire - i dont have a reflection in a mirror - so i cant see anything any way. thanks for the gifts - my future plans to buy food buffs and tattoo skins through loot crates will be put on hiatus.

i foresee this post being shut down with your vulgar display of abrasive linguistics.

Eh, I feel like all the body markings are a waste regardless of race/etc, given that they can't be seen with 95% of the armor & clothes in the game. If this were one of those Silly Bikini Armor games, then they might make more sense, but it's not that kind of game.

This is exactly what happened to me with the free CC event. Totally useless consumables that translated into 4-5 gems.. (LOL what a joke) and like 3 ugly and useless body markings.

If they made this event with the purpose to promote CC purchases, it totally had the opposite effect on me.

Tattoos = new nix hound. Stop buying the crates, if you don't like the rng.
