This is the official discussion thread for "Crown Store Showcase—February 2022"

Prepare for the adventure to come with a colorful selection of new and returning styles, adornments, mounts and more coming to the in-game Crown Store this February!

NoxiousBlight

Sovngarde Crates were released after Nightfall and they are returning first. Any chance we could get Nightfall crates in March? They have not had a second appearance yet.

@ZOS_Kevin I do appreciate the increased cadence of returning crates and homes. There are so many of them now if we don't get one to return every month it takes way to long to see the items we want again.

No chrysamere...why even live

JazzyNova

One of the things I noticed that wasn't in the article was the Silver Rose style motif from Red Petal Bastion. Is the style not coming out this month by chance if that's the case?

why is the skin locked behind gems?

SammyKhajit

Yes! Thank you for making Moonlit Cove Sojourner's Wraps available and not locked behind crates or gems.

Wonder how much crowns it’ll cost?

Not sure, but there is no end date for them, so they might be permanent, or at least not only for a small window

That’s good. This one hates those artificial “limited time” offers. It’s not like the mount/costume/skin will get mouldy past their expiry date!

Looks like this month’s showcase has gone to the dogs.

@NoxiousBlight Thanks for the feedback around the Nightfall crates. We've let our teams know that there is interest in that crate returning. We can't confirm when things will come back as that info can change. But the request is in.

@RemanCyrodiil_I Thanks for the note on the wrong image. We have edited the article to reflect the correct furnishing pack.

@JazzyNova Thanks for reaching out about this. No, it is not available at this time. But when it is, it will appear in the showcase to highlight.

@WhiteCoatSyndrome I see what you did there.

Good, I was worried I was being too subtle.

Oooh, I like the new Khajiit wrap! I’ve been wanting such a costume since Elsweyr!

You can’t really expect an answer to a rhetorical question. That’s how all the skins are sold as far as I’ve seen. The only exceptions I’m aware of are event and achievement skins.

I’ve been frustrated by items locked in crates with a bunch of items I don’t want too. But at least now we have endeavor seals as an option.

Just FYI when you quote a post that @ tags somebody that sends them a notification same as if you were tagging them directly.

DoggedBark24

There's some pretty cool stuff coming back to the crown store.

Btw, @ZOS_Kevin any idea when the dates for the upcoming whitestrake's mayhem event is? I was hoping to find out through the crown store showcase today but couldn't really find anything.

Araneae6537

@DoggedBark24 AFAIK the exact dates are always in a separate announcement closer to the event itself and not in the Crown Store showcase. I’m expecting it to be in the second half of the month.

ESO plus "gift" is once again stretched to 6 weeks ? Was it not monthly originally ? Now 8 times a year ? Not trying to literally 'look a gift horse in the mouth' but wondering if this schedule change was ever announced or just quietly slipped in. I know players have been asking for something different than statuettes - and we have had some very nice paintings , ty - but I suspect this was not the kind of "different" players had in mind.

Some interesting items in the Crown store as usual, will ponder on purchases a bit first.

Can you mention the Scalecaller Crates too? As far as I can tell they haven't been back since 2018.

I would like to see an explanation, but doubt it'll happen. Also, didn't new chapters previously include 3 treasure chests? Because this year it appears to include only one.

thegreatme

Still no Gloam Wolf Mount *sigh*

Since the 6 week plus item seems to be the norm now, I'd love to see them bring back some of the old statuettes in tandem. I still miss the Meridia I lost when I made the move to PC.

That's a great idea. I have all of them, but I know some people who would love to get the ones they missed - either because something happened IRL or because they weren't subscribed yet when a certain statuette came out.

Soraka

Feather crown and siege horse look intriguing.

Folkb

Still no adorable assassin hairstyle. Lame 😐

Based on the dates of what's given I'd strongly suspect the 17th.

Yeah...not thrilled about this recent, unannounced change. But, they already cut back on exclusive deals to just sales on returning items and the 15-pack of Crown crates. Though the original article seemed to imply we'd get exclusive items to purchase, that never happened. There was a brief stint of giving us a new item at a discount one month before it was available to everyone else.

I'd love to see, especially since they are reducing the free monthly "selection" (now, no longer monthly, and never a selection), exclusive items to purchase with crowns. The crate gamblers get exclusive items all the time (pocket watcher pets, e.g.). Or, perhaps start giving us free items that aren't furnishings. You know, a pet or even a hat.

As for this month's showcase, a small handful of new items - looking forward to getting another female Khajiit costume (only one more to go!) - and a BUNCH of returning items. The costume will either be 500 or 700 crowns, since we already got the 1,000 crown version.

awh really wanted storm atro crates to come back... or nerienth...

i don't see anything that interests me this month..

Monweel

Still no New Moon crates, It's probably the most requested crate to return.
Though I'm happy to see the Sovngarde crates here, I've seen a lot of people asking for them too these last few months.
