Crowns are on sale... how many are you going to buy?

Beardimus · October 2016

No sale on Xbox...

Lolssi · October 2016

I don't buy crowns

No new dlc on the horizon and I still have 3500 left.

AnviOfVai · October 2016

15k crowns, i'm an OCD collector and must buy everything

Buy all the things!

When I can actually get online at home!

Onigar · October 2016

I've not bought Crowns before.

Are the crowns on sale in my store?

When I look at the 5500 crowns I see 20.99 Euro.

I am not 100% sure but in the last sale I remember it showing the full price crossed through and the now discounted price.

5k crowns, might buy that zombie horse

Brought 5500 crowns, used on the tessellated guar, the Hammerfell camel and a name change.

Vorcil · October 2016

40k crowns, we haven't had any crown price drops for 6 months... I'm preparing for the future

I've just purchased 22k crowns; I'm hoping that'll be enough to drop an APEX mount;

arrrgh

have bought 40,000 crowns to date;

I am a ESO+ subscriber, but I also buy 2 5500 Crown Packs when they go on sale.
That way things don't cost as much ( Crown Crates LOL )

I'm impressed by that number.

I won't waste a single dime for crowns and therefore on zos except my purchase of the gold edition: destroying the monster hp and damage scaling in normal dungeons with 2.6.5 for a whole week until it's been fixed with 2.6.6 is just the nail in the coffin for a realistic and pragmatic person like myself.

*** OP
crown are not on sale now!
you mislead us((((((((((((99999999999

Yes they are. Normally they are $39.99 / 5500 Crown Pack. They are now $23.99 / 5500 Crown Pack.
This time they don't show that they are on sale, but they are.

Lumbermill_Emperor · October 2016

you sure?

I am on PC. If you have bought Crowns at regular price, check out your billing history to see what the regular price is.
Note: I don't know about sales on XBOS or PlayStation, only on PC

Khajiit she obtained 5500 of these shiny store coins.

This one will keep them oh so safe until there is something she really wants yes. Most likely a costume or pretty hat. This one can only ride one mount at a time and the pets are too much of the hard work.

Not a single crown will be spent on a con crate.

@SantieClaws , if you are on PC and use addons try the addon PimpMyRide. It allowns you to change Mounts, Pets, Hairstyles, and Personalities when you start the game or when changing zones.

Many thanks for the tip yes.

Khajiit prefers the company of her faithful old tiger mount Nibbles mostly but understands that sometimes a camel or a guar may be better suited to the local landscapes yes.

That's the sale price. Normal price for 5,5K pack is around 39€ if I remember correctly.

I don't support crown crates, but I need the items so I just bought 22k crowns to buy the crates.

^ This. ^

I've bought a couple of packs so far and my husband has bought one also - for direct purchases. Neither of us will spend a single one on con crates.

That's exactly how one supports crates. You're the target audience.

Danikat · October 2016

I don't want the zombie horse, but I might buy a 5,500 crown pack while they're on sale.

I've been debating getting the grey wolf mount for a while and might finally get around to it.

You 'need' the items yes? You 'need' them more than all the money you just traded for crowns?

The thing is though in buying so many of the crowns and then spending them on the crates you are saying that the crates are ok. That the exchange of crowns for crates where you do not know what you are buying is also ok. You are validating the bad thing that the crates are yes. The game does not 'need' the crates. The game needs an honest system where you see exactly what you are buying before you buy it.

Khajiit hopes only that you are not so very disappointed when you end up with 22k crowns worth of consumables and hats that you did not wish to purchase in the first place.

I don't buy crowns

My sub Crowns are more than enough to cover my expenses. I thought I would have spent tons of them on style parlor items by now, but ZOS is taking forever to release them.

Also, I am not buying the crates so I don't need that many Crowns. I saw what it did to other games. You want to sink this ship, you go and do that; I will have no part on it.

Tabbycat · October 2016

I don't buy crowns. I get them with my subscription.

Cazzy · October 2016

Just a reminder that Crowns = Money Spent. Remember this when you waste your pay cheque on 500 crates

NewBlacksmurf · October 2016

No sale for Xbox so $0

mtwiggz · October 2016

I don't buy crowns

If items in the Crown Store were of reasonable cost I would debate buying some crowns. Yet spending $10 for a mount, or $15 for a race change is a bit ridiculous.

Vorcil · October 2016

I have faith that ZOS will do good with the crates; better RNG, lower cost and more desired rewards;

By buying them, you support them. You are making sure that people like me can continue to play ESO. Better pick up another 22k, just to be sure.

Vorcil wrote: »

I don't. Mostly because I think the "good" thing to do is to not release them.

As for how many Crowns I bought. I stocked up back in June. I have tens of thousands of them, and they have not really released anything good since then. I don't need a whole lot more. I won't buy Crown Crates, and expect that their "exclusives" to get y'all to buy them will work in my favor by saving me from having to buy as many Crowns. ZOS is gonna have to work to keep me in the ESO Plus boat a little harder, I guess.

I'm very unmotivated to buy Crowns right now. I have a bunch saved up from when I was investing in the idea of the cool mounts, but then they announced the gambling boxes and there's no way in heck I'm buying a single one of those. So now I just have a bunch saved up for whatever things trickle into the proper Crown Store instead of being put into the ridiculous, completely undesired gambling boxes.

I'm in the opposite boat for the same reason; I'm still planning to cancel my sub when the Crates hit by way of protest, and when that happens I'll need to buy DLC outright again. I feel slightly better about buying the Crowns I'll need NOW, before the Crates are a thing, than after they hit; my hope being that ZOS marketing will see my spending dry up once the Crates hit and it will be obvious why.
