Daily Rewards: more tri-pots and less crates please.

moderatelyfatman · May 24

I'm just commenting that the only real thing I've gotten from the crates so far is crown gems and I've noticed a number of guildies also would be happier if we had more tri-pots as these actually have a use.

KaosWarMonk · May 24

Personally, I prefer the opposite. I have more tri-pots and poisons than I know what to do with.

Soarora · May 24

I raise you: tri-pots AND crates! Crown gems certainly are useful.

WiseSky · May 24

All I got is tri-pots from crates

Hapexamendios · May 24

I'm fine with both on the same day. 4 crates and 250 potions!

BretonMage · May 24

Tri-pots instead of poisons, maybe. I like getting crown gems. Aren't poisons easier to make in quantity?

Grizzbeorn · May 24

As a VeryFatMan, I'ma have to pull rank and veto your request.
Even if the big prizes from crates are rare, the gems are useful.

davidtk · May 24

More crates and more interesting rewards please

shadyjane62 · May 24

I destroy almost all the poisons and potions I get, and no more useless emotes or pets.

I would actually like to delete a lot of this stuff in collections.

LOL. Sounds like we've encountered similar tribulations along the same path.
So... what's above Mega-?

In increasing order:
Mega = 1 million
Giga = 1 billion
Tera = 1 trillion
Texa = Texan sized

Just give us a new Mount on the last day of the rewards.

BXR_Lonestar · May 24

I disagree. I like the crates. But I would rather have more Tripots than some of the other useless stuff we get like the poisons, soul gems, at this point, I'd even take tripots over gold rewards unless they're giving the gold away in 100k chunks.

xylena_lazarow · May 24

Tripots and Crates are awesome. Poisons are okay ish. Soul gems are terrible. Those purple foods that are strictly worse than Sugar Skulls are terrible. Non combat pets are terrible.

We can craft tri pots.

Skorro · May 24

I like the crates and gems, I also like the pots, but maybe just enjoy the different monthly free awards instead of trying to get them taken away for those that like them?

Columbine is expensive, which makes tri pots expensive.

ArchangelIsraphel · May 24

More crates, less tri-pots, please.

N00BxV1 · May 24

I agree with more Tri-pots in Daily Rewards. Having to wait until the end of the month for a stack of Tri-pots is kinda ridiculous. And zos giving us more Tri-pots would be one way to help with the ingame economy because it currently blows.

Currently on PC/NA:
- Columbine = ~4K
- Bugloss = ~500
- Mountain Flower = ~500

With the Alchemy passives you can craft 4 potions for the price of 1, the buffs from potions will last about 45 seconds, and the potions have about a 45 second cooldown. So using Tri-pots can cost about 5K gold every 3 minutes!!!

If you play any kind of demanding content ingame then you're most likely burning through potions like a mad man. And if you're not in a trading guild, or trading crowns , or selling content runs, then you're just paying more to play the game than you'll ever earn...

You know how to make Texas the third largest state? Divide Alaska in half. That's how much larger Alaska is than Texas.

To the world outside the US, the phrase is "everything's bigger in Texas." We don't refer to the size of the state, just everything in it.

Hey there, I said earlier in this thread I wanted more crates AND tri-pots, thank you for your needless aggression. Just was stating why tri-pots are a good reward to have.

Probably dead. /s

AzuraFan · May 24

I prefer more crates and other stuff. I already have 3k tri-pots or something close to that.

Dagoth_Rac · May 24

There is no reason that ZOS cannot give out more tri-pots on the few days of month with tri-pots. This is not a zero-sum game. ZOS can give out more of anything via daily rewards without reducing or removing other daily rewards.

SilverBride · May 24

Are we talking about the Crown Tri-Restoration Potion? Because I have more of these than I'll ever use and have even destroyed excess. I rarely have to use one so they build up fast.

N00BxV1 · May 24

OP: You probably should have just said "more tri-pots" and never even mentioned anything about "less crown crates"... I bet everyone (except the people that like to disagree for no reason, or those benefiting from the current situation) would have agreed that receiving more tri-pots in daily rewards is a good thing, as long as it wasn't replacing something more desirable. People are generally okay with receiving more or extra of something, but they do not like receiving less or the taking away of something.

You can use the gems to buy tripots

Personally I really like getting crates as daily rewards, because the gems do accumulate over time so I can buy crate stuff that I don't want to spend my seals on. Tripots are also welcome but mats are earnable in the game, and since I don't want to spend crowns on crates I much prefer crates as daily rewards.

I was the same until I started using tri-pots in group content. Now I use tri-pots on 3 active tanks, plus I have 2 other tanks I use sometimes, and 2 DPS, and 3 healers… I started using plain potions on the DPS and healers because I’m running out of tri-pots.

tincanman · May 24

Not a fan of crates, not that I spurn the free ones, but still I'd rather have something concrete (*ahem* , virtually) than a chance of something I probably don't want or need.

More mats are always welcome.

tincanman · May 24

Or, maybe just change the daily rewards system to offer a player-selectable choice: either a crate, a bunch of mats, tripots...whatever? Then everyone has a chance and choice of getting something they want.

Provided they don't implement it as random..with a map...with a chance to get a lead to an antiquity dig site...with a chance of a daily reward that's probably another map...with a chance...etc
