Are Terrible, the apex mounts look ridiculous, I'm sorry I pay for the game and have a right to voice this, they could of definitely done better, especially with the apex mounts, the best looking mount in this game will forever be that nightmare senche with the red aura.

    I agree this is by far not the best season.

    The problem is that the other non-apex rewards are also... meh.

    I was really disappointed. Normally 15k crowns is what i'd say is average for getting everything you want from a crate season, due to so many cool things. This season, probably like 5k crowns. The skein pets were an absolute waste of the legendary category. The epic rewards were reused meh outfits that should have been in superior category. Superior rewards with non unique tattoos, no outfits. Apex are ok, but not really that appealing. Out of everything the highlights of the crate would be.

    Inferno Facade: 16 gems
    Psijic Celestial Orb: 16 gems
    Plumed Wide-Brim Acorn-Warder: 16 gems
    Nocturnal statue: 100 gems
    Any of the Psijic gauntlets if you are into those: 100 gems

    Pretty underwhelming.

    Wow. This season is indeed bad. And many items in crates, it seems, were just removed from the crown store.
    PC/NA
    - Redguard StamBlade dps ["bowtard" crafty girl who likes spinning with daggers too.]
    - Breton SorcMag dps [She's got an identity crisis, but I believe in her.]
    - Dunmer Templar dps/healer [she's a healer, then again she likes inferno staff too...]
    And..
    - High Elf SorcMag dps [It's quite possible his daddy was a Nord.]

    Definitely a bad season. The only thing I want from the crates is the Nocturnal statue...I'm not interested in any of the apex mounts, costumes, or pets. The two jewelry pieces I liked I got from my three free crates, so I guess I'll just pick up the statue with crown gems left over from last season and call it good.

    And 25 gems for a motif page?? No thank you...I'll stick to fishing for my Pyandonean Motifs, thank you very much.

    These are actually the first apex mounts I've liked. The various atronach ones are too over-the-top flashy for me and the scale caller ones went the other way, they weren't bad but weren't very interesting to me. I can't remember what else we've had but I know they didn't interest me.

    These are pretty and distinctive without having excessive effects and visual 'noise'. I think it's a shame so much of their body is covered with the blanket, I'd prefer to see more of the glow personally, but I still think they look nice. I still won't be buying crates because I don't gamble with real money, but it's the first time I've hoped I would get an apex mount from a free crate (or enough gems to buy one), normally I hope I don't get them because I'd never use any of the others and it would seem like a huge waste for me to have one.

    I realise they won't suit everyones tastes, but I know I'm not the only one who hasn't liked any of the previous apex mounts and I doubt I'm the only one who does like these. I think it's encouraging to see them branching out a bit and trying to appeal to a wider ranger of players instead of just doing basically the same thing in different colours.

    I for sure did not spend as much on crates this season. There wasn't a lot that I wanted, and I have a stack of gems saved up from all the previous seasons. So I bought one large pack of crates and then just bought the other things I wanted with gems. And I won't buy any more this season. But, thats fine. I got my regular apex senche mount and the motif pages I was still missing. The rest is whatever.

    I just watched a Korean guy open 120 crates getting 4 apex mount, 1 radiant apex and a sweetroll asside of many other things of course that I wish I got... It makes me really sad how the RNG is bad and either favours to one person while the other gets complete garbage... They need to add some kind rule "60 crates bought 50% chance to get radiant apex" or "5th card at least every 4 packs" etc. This is just making me so mad. I want to buy the radiant apex, I really do, but for gods sake Zenimax, LET ME ACTUALLY BUY IT.
    Magicka sorcerer from start until the end. Always. Through the good times and the bad, even now when its probably saddest PvE dps it has ever been.
    Even as an owner of one radiant apex mounts I am against radiant apex mounts and anything thats not obtainable by direct purchase.

    Well, you can... for the low, low price of cca 80€. That's how much mine has cost me (actually a bit less because I lucked out on some draws and got to the 400 gems before I opened all the crates).

    This was the first, and the last time I buy crates though. I'm a RPer and they nailed the mount look for my character so it was a deliberate expense, but I won't soon forget for how much I was ripped off just to get one cosmetic item I wanted.

    **edit**

    Just noticed you said radiant apex. Yeah, not gonna happen. Gotta keep those gambling machines running!

    Exactly this. Psjic mounts > Scalecaller.

    And remember guys, the undead apex mounts were underwhelming aswell. Not talking about radiant apex mounts tho, they all rock.

    Why are there no new skins or costumes in the new crown crates . Also no psijic style chapters ?

    Worst Crown crates in a long time. Some of the wearable clothing is just the regular clothing you could buy at ANY time for years. They put no thought into this whatsoever.
