    Gambling is bad, m'kay.

    "Instead of taking the best of the dolmens (predictable rotation), the best of the geysers (scalability based on number of players), and the best of the dragons (map location and health indicators) and adding them together to make a fun and dynamic world event scenario, they gave us....... harrowstorms." https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/6850523/#Comment_6850523

    It's called RNG. same as I can buy 1 crate and get a gold mount. Just RNG, nothing more.

    and if you dont want the chance of bad investment; dont gamble...

    It's all about the gems. Unless you want a drop-only item, then you'd better pray to the RNG fairy.

    I don't play ESO since 15.06. because Cyrodiil is broken since Summerset (PvE isn't much better, too)...

    Aldmeri Dominion (PC Europe via Steam)

    The cowardly Wood Elves are best noted for their unwillingness to engage in a face-to-face attack; a Bosmer will strike at you from every side except the front. You won't cross swords with a Bosmer, but you might catch an arrow in the throat. Be wary in forests and jungles, and watch your back.

    Wait, didn't you get two mounts, 12xp scrolls and 400+ crown gems from your crates according to another of your posts? Two mounts from 8 crates sounds pretty darn good to me, plus all those gems...

    That is probably a very good idea. Probably would have been best to stop 8 crates ago.

    I mean I understand it's rng and random but I feel like if you buy for say couple crates your guaranteed a extra card

    They don't but most games actually do this and it's successful makes people buy it more would you buy a crate if true guaranteed a epic card or a 5th card every purchase of more than one crate

    The gems are your guarantee. You get gems which will eventually guarantee the item you want (unless it's drop only which I still have issues with, but that's another thing)

    How RNG works =

    If you have:

    40% chance of winning item A
    30% chance of winning item B
    20% chance of winning item C
    10% chance of winning item D

    Each time you "play" You have exactly a 10% chance of getting item D. If you play 10 times,each of those times you have a 10% chance, but you dont add those together and get a 100% chance of getting an item.

    It may take you 50 times to get item D, while someone else may get item D in two out of five plays. Dont ever gamble with RNG games if you are trying to win something (specific), more often than not you will end up spending a lot more money than you wanted to and likely be very disappointed.

    Most games.

    Does ESO do this? Apparently not.

    There are many things about "most games" that are not true of ESO.
