Official Discussion Thread for "Introducing the Baandari Pedlar Crown Crate!"

    I hope the pets from the preview crate will be introduced in the Crown Store eventually. Also, I agree that calling them "Preview Crates" is very misleading. Some people who don't go to the forum might not realize the pets aren't in the crates, and buy them mistakenly in hope of getting one of the pets. This is borderline false advertising. Frankly disappointing, and worrying. Especially as Bethesda/ZOS need to rebuild trust after the canvas bag and fancy bottle fiasco (yes, I know BGS is not ZOS, but they operate under the same umbrella company).

    There is a way to fully preview and look at every item in a crown crate while in game before buying, but yeah.

    I'm excited that the Radiant Apex mounts are breaking from the wolf/horse/senche model. It makes me want these way more!

    Also, I'd love to have more pet/mount furnishing slots to be able to display them.

    I agree with the Pedlar Pack pets needing to be available somewhere, i thought they would be in the crates too (I think I need all of them - so cute!)

    Guildmate just mentioned as well - The Dusky Fennec Fox was a daily login reward pet...

    While it is nice that folks who missed it can get it, it would also be nice to have more new items in crates.

    I've made a showcase video for Baandari Pedlar Senche-Lion mount :)

    https://youtu.be/jNGDKz6Ory4

    You can see all movement and hear all sounds of this mount, so you can decide if it's worth buying.

    In my opinion, it's the absolute worst Apex effect we've ever had so far :'( I know I've said it already about Hollowjack and Dragonscale Apexes... but this time, it's much worse.

    It has no summoning animation. It has no special effect at all, except for glowing compass in the rider's hand. When it roars, there is no additional effect at all - the rider just raises the compass in the air :o

    And it has the voice of ordinary lion mount (well, at least it's loud, unlike Indigo senche who uses voice of ordinary senche).

    Seeing the crates come out today, I am really confused. I remember that the coral mudcrab was epic reward before the crates went live?!! What the hell? Thats what was datamined from the crates people got from the preorder of Elsweyr.

    Even as an owner of one radiant apex mounts I am against radiant apex mounts and anything thats not obtainable by direct purchase.

    1) Baandari mounts look really nice, but the lack of anything "special" other than the compass (summoning animation, roar effect etc) is a bit offputting

    2) The Esraj emote is awesome, please stop making music instruments into useless mementos, and make them into either emotes, as you have done with the Esraj, or furnishing pieces

    3) The 600 gem mount is rediculously overpriced, and I'm glad it doesn't appeal to me in the least

    4) Many people wanted some of the other Baandari Preview pets - it was really disappointing to not see them purchasable in the crates. Make them purchasable for crowns in the near future

    I'm a cat person and got the Wolf pup in BOTH of my accounts' "preview" crates. Now they tell us that there's no chance at all to get any of the other pets even if you buy the new crown crates? That's BS! I really wanted that little senche.

    Allow us to buy with crowns the Baandari preview pets. Not everyone got the one they wanted, and you're literally missing out on money by not putting them up for sale.

    I'm incredibly disappointed that the Khajiiti martial arts katas are being put in the gambling boxes instead of the normal cash shop. Why is there such a focus on gambling in this game? Why do the gambling boxes get so much new, high-quality content compared to the cash shop?

    That's easy to answer. Putting them for a straight price in the cash shop doesn't make them "enough" money. They made a "mistake" when they gave crowns as part of the subscription and jacking up the prices of CS items was not enough to offset this. But they don't dare take the crowns away because people would cancel their subs like mad. So their solution is to just keep putting more and more desirable items in the gamble boxes and less and less items worth having in the cash shop.
