    Worse crates yet as far as I am concerned. Generally do one 15 crate stack each season but not this time.

    Another sick thought I had when looking at all those lizard mounts. So many times in the game lizard/reptiles creatures chased me in the game and I turned around and fought them thinking they wanting to fight me but now I know that just wanted to get their freak on with me.

    Truth be told it's not just the flubber coated weapons that have me avoiding the crate, it's also the fact that it only has two mementos, one of which lasts only a few short seconds, no motifs, dumb looking mounts oh and the *** dye stamps that nobody asked for, I mean come the *** on, the only half decent things in the box are the skins and even then they only really work if you play as a lizard

    The chickens in the crate are worth buying, the rest not sadly. Many of the pets were already in the store a half year ago and the mounts are some nightmare tier products.

    Have to agree about being disappointed with these crates and the poor range of offerings

    The only thing I liked was the nightfall sabre cat and had plenty of gems so just bought it.

    No crates bought this season, no intention to either.

    Fortunately, just about everything in this season’s crates looks hideous, with only a few exceptions. If people want to waste gems on those weapons for completion’s sake, that’s on them.

    There’s actually nothing I want from these crates- on the other hand-

    Where’s the Storm Atro crates ZoS? There’s a few things I actually saved up gems for when they finally come out

    I've been saving all my gems for a storm atronach mount, if and when it ever comes back.

    There was a voriplasm target dummy on the murkmire pts as part of a furnishing pack.

    The pet is a neat idea, but I’m not a fan of the 200 and 300 gem tiers. Especially since getting a duplicate 200 gem item still only results in the gem return of a duplicate 100 item.

    Someone either forgot to adjust the formula or it’s intended by ZOS. Either way, it screws the paying customer for no good reason.

    These weapon skins, for what they are, should have been in the 40 gem tier at most.

    If they were 100 gems at least it would coincide with the gauntlets in the psijic crates.

    At 200 gems a piece this was one hell of a greedy move. They really want to clean out those free crate gem reserves.

    So right. Why invent non-lorefriendly monsters when we already have creatures like the wamasu?

    Because Wamasu requires creating new animation, movements, sounds. This will cost (is ZOS reality) like 5000+ crowns minimum.
    All they did is made new 3D models and applied and old animation on them. Now we have a lizard with canine behaviour. Days of new content are passed. Adapt, that's how people like to say here?

    In all honesty, I looked at them... said "Frick are these ugly", then I noticed the price and just laughed.
    So whats the dollar cost on these? 3 bucks a crown crate, broken down into crown gems?
    I guess the cost really dosnt matter, since I wouldnt want to show off how much money I spent to wear a virtual turn on my toon.

    Holy smokes I would love a wamasu mount. I'd buy one. but the literal garbage they produce currently isn't worth it. I can't tell if they honestly even think about what they are putting together for this stuff, or they drop everything into a digital randomizer and plop whatever comes out into the store.

    The new crates are horribly set up IMO.

    The booger weapons are ugly and just cheap (as in existing weapons with some boogers smeared on them). So that is taking up 'win' space in crates and not worth the tier they put it at.

    The dye stamps they put in there cannot be traded for gems, so you are stuck with them in your inventory with the only option to delete them. (Should be able to gem them out for 1 gem at least).

    To top it off, they have nerfed the drop rate for twitch crates so bad, you'll hardly see one for watching 12 hours of streams all day - not worth it at all to watch something you weren't planning to watch anyway now (which seemed to be the point of crates - to encourage viewers to watch more streams). Not even counting they dropped nothing but a couple super rare items, so they nerfed something that already had horrible drop rates.

    I'm pretty irritated that I caved this month though - I hadn't bought crates the last two seasons, but b/c I have all argonians I gave in and got some. Huge mistake. All I learned from Zenimax is that I can invest nearly forty dollars in their game for zero reward. If that is the lesson they hoped to provide, then job done. Your game barely satisfies at it is, you might want to consider at least letting people give you money for products they want and not a rare chance to win something they want.

    Though I hate, hate, HATE the loot boxes thanks to my crap rng you need to understand the gem prices are high because that is a "buy now" option. It's ment to get you to buy loot boxes in hopes of getting the item and if you don't get it you still have a chance of getting the gems to get it. It's better then swtor where they simply give you the rng box and nothing more.

    SWTOR is EA though, and they are the most predatory of any publisher when it comes to loot boxes and RNG.
