New Crates in 6 days? (6 day left banner on all crate offerings)

I'm confident that its more likely just the crate sale will be over, and not have new crates when Flames of Ambition comes to console.

As there's no new crates teased in the march showcase, I was thinking the Potentate Crates would be here until April at least.

New crates are never teased in the showcase afaik.

True, sometimes old crates are, sometimes they are not.

But the last set had an article in December.

Wonder why there's not one with new crates in 6 days. I guess its the ones that come with the new DLC.

The Ayleid crates are coming in 6 days.

New crate seasons are never in the monthly showcases. They get their own articles outside of the showcase, and that is dependent - Sovngarde crates got their article a week before, but Nightfall only got it a day before. The only crates that show up in the showcases are returning crates. I'd expect the Ayleid article to show on Tuesday.

Crates are also always in the store for 13 or 14 weeks. As Thursday is the 14th week for Potentates, it makes sense that they'd leave and be replaced. I can even predict that the Ayleid crates would leave the store around the 17th of June for the Iron Atronach crates, as the Blackwood preorder bonus is an Iron atro crate which we haven't heard of before.

Yeah, it's going to switch to Ayleid Crates when the timer is up.

The timing lines up, since Akaviri Crates dropped mid-December, and crates are in the store for about 3 months per season, so mid-March is exactly when they would swap out.

Makes sense, wish they gave us a little more of a heads up but I'm sure these crates will be here a while so no big deal.

Next month first big pts patch will be the datamine of the iron atrronach crates. I'm more interested in those theoretically.
