Dragonscale Crown Crates

If you did not open any Dragonscale Crown Crates and probably never will, then please refrain from posting.

You can always go make a "Crown Crates Are Evil/Lacklustre" thread for that sort of soap-boxing.

Totally agree these crates just scream "I'm too lazy"

No costumes. This sucks. Only got those two hilarious emotes (mimewall and handpuppet) for gems and I'm done with this season. I hope Dwarven Crates make a return soon. They were the best.

Only thing I wanted, I got with gems and that was the nose chain.

I got the nose chain, the coral nose rings and the dwarven cog earrings.

Trying the nose chain out on my redguard female and breton female, it clips through their top lips.

Let me know if you see a similar clipping. It may be my preferred facial geometry causing it.

Same goes for the earrings, misses both their lobes entirely.

But, the coral nose rings fit wonderfully and looks great on my redguard female, so not a total loss.

I'm wondering if the nose chain fits males better.

That's possible as it doesn't clip at all on my male Altmer. He does have quite thin lips though which might also make a difference.

I can post a pic later if that helps.

The best thing they ever did in my opinion was stop giving free crown crates - I no longer buy them, but before if I got a couple of free ones it would encourage me to buy more!

The "best thing they ever did" was to stop giving us free stuff?

An interesting opinion and somewhat controversial.

As for free stuff encouraging you to buy stuff?

That sounds like a lack of self-control to me.

Agree.
Also was a good thing for player that couldn’t afford crowns.
A little gift for those who bought this game; some free gems to cumulate in YEARS for a nice appereance.
We were satisfied.

Note: daily rewards are ok, but different; And they are worse than at the beginning

I can add that I'd be glad to get the chained wrath piercings if they were on the ather side of the head. This would be perfect with adorable assassin hairstyle, now the hair cover most of it.

I didn't buy any crates and I don't think I will. I like only two items from these, one being arctic skin and second a meridia tattoos. I bought skin with gems, can't afford a tattoo, but I think I'll let it go, cause getting 40 gems isn't that easy.

Tbh nothing can compare with my wild hunt senche on my bosmer so I'm not disappointed at all.

ZeusChaos25

Update: Out of 30 crates, got the pets I wanted, the radiant apex senche and the skin. So I'm done buying crates this season.

sudaki_eso

I thought murkmire was bad but this season tops it - at least for me. There is not a single item i really dig. Bought the skin and piercing with gems and thats it.

btw, does anyone know if you can unlock the "triple red dye" you can get this season somewhere in game? I am not home so i cant tell you the name right now....got the dye out of one crate and i have to admit that it looks awesome, better then any red i have unlocked so far...

Tan9oSuccka

No thanks. Not a single costume or hairstyle?

Jeez. How many more face tattoos do they have to add?

Kagukan

Bought the usual 4. Got the Dwarven Remnant Sword. Everything else was junk.

generalmyrick

namira furnishing = deconned.
meridia face tattoo 3x
meridia body tattoo
and decon items.

That red dye is not found in-game.

RaddlemanNumber7

Bought 15 crates. Got:

Gold:
Resplendent Sweetroll
Lustrated Daedrat
Grand XP scroll
Rainbow Banner Ribbon emote

Purple:
Karth Winter Pup

Blue:
Feather Brows of Mystery x2
Chatty Hand Puppet emote
Bronze Color Eyeshadow x2
Altand Glacial Body Tattoos x2
Kick Ball memento
Wall Pantomime memento
Dwarven Geometry Body Markings x2
Meridian Radiance Face Tattoos
Dwarven Geometry Face Markings

Lots of gemmable trash.

Gemmed everything gemmable. Bought the Arctic Rime skin and the face chain. Still have nearly 500 gems left over ready for Baandari crates.

Put the skin on my white-furred, blue-eyed Khajiit to hide her vampirism. Put the face chain on my crazy-dark Bretton lady.

Had some fun with the mementos and emotes

Vuron

I got 2 apex mounts, a skin, and a pet. I seriously doubt that I'll ever use any of them or even see what the look like.

Myrkgrav

I bought 15 because I really wanted the Daedrat and Sweetroll Grizzly, but they are pretty lackluster and I'm not super into the Dragonscale mounts. I don't like the "helmet" thing they have lol.

coop500

Honestly, I'm regretting not getting more Xanmeer crates with my gold.... This season blows.
They're just a lot like the Summerset ones, the gummy horse/bear/senche/wolf/guar and such

where are the costumes and hairstyles? instead there are more cr*p tattoos that no one will use. so disappointed

This. Those are the things that I look forward to most in new seasons, and there’s literally none here. I guess ZoS doesn’t want my money

Sevn

1st season where not a single item interests me even a little bit. Dull daily rewards and a uninspired crate season means another month long break for me.

Grandma

people hatin on the crates but i enjoy this more than xanmeer. dwarven weapons look cool, the skin is nice, Gay Pridetm, the radiant apex are awesome but i wasn't expecting that, some of the mounts and pets are cool, the orange meridian sunburst tattoos are neat.

omegatay_ESO

Truthfully this is the worst season so far. Barely reskinned mounts with some awful armor on them. I blame the fact that the artists were busy finishing the next chapter. I certainly hope so.

How were your crates?

MEGA ***...

Fluke.Slywalker

For the second time now, I haven't bought any. Surely they can come up with a new mount now instead of re-skinning the old ones, considering the monetary gain from players buying crates.

Not even any Motif books in them to spend the gems on anymore

Syuko

I didn't buy any crates but I spent some gems on a couple things. I like how the mounts aren't super flashy or weird looking. I love the Sweetroll Grizzly 🙂

Absolutely - I have no self control when given freebies, but seem to able not to buy any when not given any - go figure

Karius_Imalthar

I got a ridiculous amount of duplicates. I have terrible luck with crates. The gem requirements for the dwemer styles and mount are ridiculous. I basically spent $100 worth of crowns and got some "interesting" or" meh" items.

I opened one for funsies

its trash though

perogwin_ESO

I will probably get 15 near the end of April when my Yearly Sub reups, I will say the list of stuff I want from this season is less then usual.

Want List:

Legendary -
Prismatic Banner Ribbon
Namira Statue (only because I have every other one they have ever done of the Princes)
Dwarven Weapons (would love to get them all but the only one I MUST have is the staff)

Epic -
Rime Skin
Atmoran Chub Loon
Meridian Sunburst Body Tattoo

Superior -
Alftand Body Tattoo
Bronze Eye Shadow
Dwarven Sprocket Earrings
Feathered Brow
Kickball
Hand Puppet
Wall Pantomime

Luckily the section with the most items I want is lower on the list. Would I say no to one of the Super Rare Unbuyable Mounts, Hell No , but my luck doesn't work that way!

The nose to ear chain was cool, always wanted one since I saw it on the redguard lady in the DB quest, however its way darker than it look like in the preview. Granted an spotted Khajiit make an bad background but I thought the chain was missing.

The Hand Puppet and Wall Pantomime emotes are worth it, they are long and complex animations and they loop so you can do them for as long as you want.

I use mine to distract players from me placing Questionable Meat in the spot where the Jester sparklers spawn.

Hours of fun.
