can we please for the people that don't get crates [snip] we need more free crates for people -- in daily month thing and also . in the drops we need 3 .. or 4 per time on twitch because its not on all the time.. mostly every 3 to 6 months.. it bee more better to add more crates so that people can earn purple crystals.. because not in the daily calendar wish they were in they more too.. the free worthless ones that don't have mounts lol not the ones that cost.. maybe add them in too of-course the buyable ones but ones from the past .. but i think it help to add .. free crates in twitch more per time on..if not o well.. i tryed.. and this only i idea..

    There are drops several times a month.

    Given that the purpose of the drops is to incentivize people to watch ESO on twitch and I guess attract new people and gain visibility for ESO, a more reasonable request would be to just have a drops campaign every weekend and have it be a more regular and consistent thing.

    I've been playing ESO for 1 year, since May 2021, and my Twitch claims show that I have received 3 pets and 60 Ouroboros Crown crates in that time; the most current being 15 minutes ago. There are several drop events every month.

    How do you find out when the drops are on? is there somewhere with information on this?

    I get the drops acknowledged in Twitch, but don't receive items in game, including the chapter event torchbug. They just sit in my earned drops menu

    I've wondered that myself.

    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Go to inventory and click drops. ESO drops always show up for me there. It shows future ones coming even before news

    Somewhere there's a calendar

    You can follow drops section and put it into your discord

    Several of my guild discords use a bot that announces when twitch drops go active. And even though I don't speak German, I can tune in for the 15 minutes to get a drop. :wink:

    I do this too, but a lot of them don't show up ahead of time for me anyway.
    I've heard of this mythic calendar too, but have nott yet found it.

    And out of that you got 300 potions and just as many crown mimic stones 🤡

    Ohh, can you post a link (or pm me) to one of those discords. That would be really helpful :) I know I'm not in the guilds so I promise to make no sounds at all :#
    The guilds I am in does not have one of those neat channels, although they have many other nice discord services :)

    There's a lot of nice content that I've only found out about because of the drops, but I don't necessarily watch at the time there are drops and would still like those. I suppose the drops are there to promote eso and it's content, but it doesn't much if we don't know about it.
    I always post link to my guilds and zone when drops are active somewhere so other people can benefit too if they didn't already know. Makes for lots of grateful people :)

    Honestly I'd prefer fewer twitch drops, if anything.

    I don't like missing out on stuff (particularly exclusive stuff) because I can't tune in for a specific duration at a specific time. At least with limited time in-game events, I can play after work. More often than not, the twitch drops are going on while I'm AT work.

    I mean, okay, yeah, bonus incentives are nice to promote streams and such, but in that case, why complain about stuff that's already free and extra, then? It seems a bit entitled to say "I don't like this free stuff - there needs to be more of it!"

    Problem with eso twitch drops are the announcements... or rather lack of them. 2 days ago xbox channel had eso drops enabled. Yesterday Bethesda_de had ESO drops enabled. The twitch campaigns started like in the exact moment the streams started. Nothing was announced on ESO website or ESO forums. Even if I check active campaigns on twitch 2 times a day - I still missed 2 drops :|

    It seems that the only way not to miss a drop is to have a phone app and literally keep it with you everywhere you are.

    Despite having a twich app, I missed Bethesda_de drop because I was in the kitchen making dinner & my phone was in my room... So even if I have twich app with notifications - it is possible to miss a drop because it is not announced anywhere in advance.

    Also one weird thing is that twich is missing very important functionality - to notify user whenever drops from certain game are active. Drops are there so that more people will watch commercials - so that the twitch will earn more cash. But big companies don't do things randomly. Everything has its purpose. At this point I think that lack of announcements on ZOS end is there out of fear that we will get too many crown gems.

    Yeah, the lack of announcements is almost comical by now.

    There is a "Streamers & Twitch drops" page at

    https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/streamers

    and this is what is "announces":

    "

    ESO Live at Home

    Tune in for at least 15 mins to receive an Ouroboros Crown Crate.

    Bethesda

    04/29/22 @ 4:00PM – 04/29/22 @ 5:30PM EDT
    "

    My guess is that the company realized a long time ago that any activity on Twitch apart their own chapter or DLC presentations is completely wasted. Outside of drops campaigns I hardly ever see ESO streamers with big numbers of viewers.

    I would join a discord with the drops

    https://discord.gg/VwGTQdfBkx

    I checked for you and this is this only non guild discord with them that I could find. You can mute the rest and use it for checking drops if you want
