    Interesting. 100 rolls and still no radiant apex... but I'm getting better rewards overall than the real crates. I'm still pretty convinced ZOS uses dark patterns to lower results the more crates you buy/open.

    The real rng is far less forgiving. Generally, it takes around $600 worth of crates to get all three radiant mounts. This season was closer to $1200.

    I mean 1200$ worth of crates.
    I bought 8 21,000 @$149.00 crown packs. Used every single crown in increments of 5000. 33 - 15 crates packs.
    So, 495 crates opened to get all the radiant mount this season. The 1st radiant didn't drop until the low 300's.

    I can say this after now owning 17 radiant mounts. They only drop on the 5th bonus card, you can tell youre getting it before you flip, there will be a different color shimmer around the card. I was upset this season, so I called ZOS directly. They said they made this season more difficult and that it is rng. Its not real rng, because if it were, you would get a radiant duplicate eventually. I have never, ever gotten a duplicate radiant for gems. EVER. So its not rng in the true sense, its rng after you spend a certain amount.

    I never saw anyone get 2 radiant apex and even less 3 on crates openings.

    Zos has not confirmed that you can get double Radiant Apex for Gems, as far as I know.

    Wait... you called Zos? and they said its more difficult??

    https://crowncrates.com/gloomspore

    Shows same odds as before at Radiant Apex around 0.025 % so 1 in 400

    I can only says you been lucky if you only had to open 495 Crates to get all 3 radiant.... average should be 1200 crates.

    Or ZOS has a Hidden Mechanics for Whales that try to get all the radiant apex mounts and lowers the odds for them so that the whale species does not go extinct.

    I very highly gigantically without a shadow of reconsideration doubt that.

    I don’t think anyone at ZoS, upon your request, told you “psst, hey, we actually made it harder to get radiant mounts. don’t go telling the forums or your friends about it, k bye”.

    EDIT: Unless you give hard evidence, I won’t believe you.

    Fake hunted a radiant (any kind and not a particular one...) for a laugh...

    Got "!!! RADIANT !!! APEX !!! : Fungiflare Wolf" on my first try.

    /jokes

    It was the 352nd try.

    So this would of taken me 23.46 packs of 15 crates at a rate of 5,000 crowns EACH.
    That's a casual 117,333 crowns.

    The normal top bracket deal for crowns is 21,000 for $110.97 AUD.
    So it would of took $620 AUD (more actually since it was almost 5.5x 21,000 packs so I would of had to spend money on the extras at a higher cost and not the top bracket discount cost).

    $620 for a radiant of any kind. As a side not it was a wolf which I dont care for. Since I would of only wanted the senche. However I literally got tired of clicking the button to look for the exact one I would of wanted. Let that settle in... I got tired of pressing my mouse looking for it... it is that low of a drop rate...

    More jokes though. 117,333 crowns at a PC NA price of 200:1 is 23,466,600 gold. 23.5M.

    So in the end I got bored of fake hunting a drop because the rate was so low and took $620 AUD or 23.5M in game gold in this fake waste of time.

    I will literally never try and use these things lol...

    Wait hahaha....

    This was going by the huge discount price they have atm...

    The $110.97 pack would actually be $184.95 AUD each normally.

    So its not $620 its actually closer to $1,033 AUD...

    Rip lol what a joke.

    I find crown crates to be very consumer friendly

    I think that was the statement of the year on ESO forums
