Am I missing something? (ESO+ Event)

SickleCider

I was sure I read something yesterday about ESO+ members receiving a daily free crate during this event. Did I misunderstand, or is there something that needs to be done to redeem them? It's not a big deal, but, you know.

You read correctly but it also stated the boxes will be rewarded by May 16th.

Oh, my goodness! You're right, there it is. Thanks for pointing out the obvious to this blind bat. lol

Some event... What the hell is the point of an event you log into 6 times then wait a month to get rewards haha omfg this company...

Yes, I have to say I really don't understand what the wait is about. It's not as though there are goods that need to be prepared or shipped. It's a very strange decision. Far be it from me to complain about something I'll be receiving for free, though.

Do you just have to log in the designated days to get them?

The wait likely has something to do with the fact that the Psijic Crates are Summerset assets, and haven't yet been deployed to the live server.

Yes, but 'days' are measured from 10am (EDT) to 10am (EDT) ... so plan accordingly.

There are always forum-goers screaming they didn't get their crates, when they didn't pay attention to the actual time cutoff between days.

I am a bit surprised at the date - usually "free crate" events give them to you right after it ends.

But, on the larger topic.... I believe the real event is the free ESO+ sample days for non-subs. The free crates for people who're already subbed is just because they want to give something to everyone. (otherwise, people would complain about "how come non-subbers get something and we True Supporters Who You Owe Everything don't get something, too?!?")

Of course, no matter what they do, someone will complain.

It says "by May 16th". Sooo, more like 2 weeks max, since the event goes to the 30th.

The even ends on the 30th! That makes the 16th, just a little over 2 weeks not a month.

yup. but it's the internet so a wait of anything over about a minute becomes inflated to at least a month.

We're getting Scalecaller crates, so I don't see why the Psijic stuff has anything to do with the delay?

It's a blue recolor of the nix hound.

Just kidding. Actually, I liked the nix hound, I just didn't want six of them.
