15 Crown Crate Bundle Discount for Frost Atronach Crates Possible?

Jesiah5

Hi there, I was just curious as to the possibility that we could find the 15 Crown Crate Bundle at 20% off sometime in the next two weeks as these Frost Atronach Crates expire. (4000 Crown gems for bundle instead of 5000). From what I have gathered from my searches it may be possible. I would definitely purchase a large quantity of that's the case. Can anyone comment?

Thanks!

Yeah, they usually do countdown before the discount just to push people to purchasing for a full price. They didn't do that with New Moon so I thought they stopped this nonsense. If I were you I'd wait till almost the end of the countdown before buying anything. It's practices like this that make people say ESO's "micro"transactions are predatory. No clear comunication, just constant reliance on FOMO.

Most crate sets have done this before expiring. I am also really hoping it'll happen.

They haven't announced the Gloomspore grates yet, so it'll probably happen next month.

I'm actually surprised the Gloomspores aren't out this month. The Greymoor preorder bonus includes a Nightfall preview, which I guess is the next set after those, so it'd have to come out around June-ish timeframe, so Gloomspore should have come out this month.

I'd guess it'll be in the April showcase.

Usually they did discount, but i guess as most are "waiting" now for those discounts, they stop to do em cause it hit their regular sales to much.
In 11 days there will be new crown crate season and i didnt seen yet a discount coming up when it was already on countdown.

I didn't even see the countdown come up! Dang.

Weird that we haven't gotten any news about the crates. Then again, they gave us the Frost Atronach contents news article at the 2 day mark, so maybe we'll get it then.

Still, this is the first time in a while that we haven't gotten a preview crate as part of daily rewards, and them not mentioning anything in the showcase seems weird. I'm even going back through the old showcases, but now I can't see any of them talking about deals on 15-crate packs anymore.

...weird, is that being stopped and now we're just acting like it was never a thing?

I wonder what this new set will have, beyond the datamined mounts. Not all that impressed with them tbh, but I want to see what the other parts are. I remember everyone went nuts since they've been waiting for that Maormer skin for ages and it finally popped in the crate.

I'm going with the idea that there isn't going to be a sale, because many, myself included, have made it clear we were waiting for the sales.

Well, ultimately ZOS doesn't have to offer a discount and it looks like this time full price sales are being put on priority.

It happens, and to be honest right now I really don't care as there are much, much bigger things to worry about.
