Crown store consumables on CD

Ryan.jennings2rwb17_ESO
Hi All,

The crown store consumables are useful, but being a once off use (or 10 depending on quantity obviously) they seem like a little bit of a waste to me.

Proposal1: Consumables (including potions, repair kits, soul gems etc) should be on a cool down and expiry, eg you can buy the consumable for 400 crowns, then you can use it as many times as you can / want / need until it expires, whether that be a week or a month.

Proposal2: You can buy consumables for 400 crowns and you get more quantity for accepting a expiry timer. eg you can choose between getting 10 for use whenever, or 20 that expire in a month. maybe even 50 that expire in a week? going much above 20 that expire in a month can become a bit pay 2 win though, so it should probably stop there.

These proposals give more choices which can cater for the casual or not so casual players. If this was the case I'd be much happier to spend my money & crowns on consumables.

On a side note: durability on gear should go down much less during general fighting but go down more when dying. so you can fight for 3-5 hours straight before your gear needs repairing, but if you die it should lose 15% durability instantly. This would reward people for playing well and living.

    Nobody thinks this would be a good idea? Surprising

    probably because you can make better food for no real money cost and at a very cheap amount of gold.......

    Not a bad suggestion, although I like the current system in place. Durability wise its fine, I am utterly afraid of zos messing with durability anymore. Dying can happen unintentionally in this game, case in point crit charge locking up, sometimes its easier just to wait out the lock take the ddeath, use the soul gem and fight again. Also foods can be pretty cheap I spent near 20k total yesterday for 2 purple vr 10 food recipes and the ingredients to craft them for months.
