    Those XP scrolls don't look so bad now, huh? This is just making up for 3 days of daily rewards problems. Honestly, they didn't have to do anything to make that up to me at all. 6 weeks of broken PvP, however....

    Can their contents be turned into gems like other crates?

    And more importantly, will console players get these crates too? We don't receive twitch drops so I don't think the Ouroborous crates have a console presence yet.

    They're not real crown crates, just mini-crates full of free gems (and maybe a cool mount or pet if you're really, really, really lucky). I got a gold 5th card and got all excited, but it turned out to be an XP scroll... worth 33 gems, though, so I can't complain.

    Yes and Yes. Check the dev tracker for console confirmation :)

    BTW to anyone confused. These are the crates you get as "Twitch drops", and only contain consumables and extremely rarely, a pet or mount. That's the loot pool.

    I appreciated the crates I got - some stuff to turn into gems (for which I have stuff I want when I have enough), and some really good things for my "baby" toons like the XP scrolls. Also got a couple of costumes, and a belt motif.

    So thanks ZOS!

    At least you received 3 crates.. I only received 1 and I watched 4 different streamers over Sat and Sunday for over 5hours each.

    I'm beginning to thing I need to contact Twitch and actually see if my name was sent in only once or if more than once and ZOS is only giving me a single crate.

    I thought these crates were for logging in the last few days.

    Still not sure why people complained about that. I would have much much rather had 3 xp scrolls than a couple more crown gems. Thanks a lot guys.

    I'm on a fence. It's hard to choose between the almost-worthless and the potentially-completely-worthless-very-rarely-nice.

    Not the ouroboros crates.. you get them from watching Twitch streams with the drops enabled.

    I'll have to agree with Sandman that they may have been a consolation for screwing up the first 3 days of daily logins. I've not once watched any twitch streams.

    Cool. I hadn't rechecked in with that thread recently so missed the update from the devs.

    It is confusing that there's at least 2 reasons people might be expecting free crates around now - the Twitch give-aways and the recent free ESO+/free crates week, and then the announcement for these ones seems to have gone under the radar a bit.

    I'm also grateful for the free crates and won't complain even when I get trash. This is still a free trash :).

    Anyway, it seems to be a higher chance for getting better items if we open only single crate per character, so owning multiple mules helps a lot.

    When opening many crates on the same character, the first crate would give more unique items and all others generally gives only trash. If we open a crate, then relog to another toon and open another crate on that one, and do it on multiple alts, the chance for unique items rises greatly. I do that with my free crates :).

    I appreciate that the console community is receiving these crates as well. The mount and pet that can be obtained in the Ouroboros Crates were currently only available to the PC/Mac crowd through the Twitch rewards.

    @ZOS_GinaBruno ....Perhaps there's some type of monthly requirement that can be implemented for players to receive a couple of the Ouroboros crates each month since the Twitch drops are not an option yet for console players? Maybe claiming all of the month's daily rewards in the allotted time also rewards you with a couple of these crates? Just a suggestion. Thanks again!
    *Edited....maybe easier yet...just have one of the daily rewards be an Ouroboros Crate?

    I even got shorted a crate, to add insult to injury, considering I log in pretty much daily.

    The Ouroboros crates only had crap, for me and my friends. Can't complain about free *** though. It's probably aimed at new players that don't have crafting skills, money or friends.
