    Half of the costumes and stuff I already had from the era when they actually put stuff in the crownSTORE instead of crates. Mounts are ugly and so are the hero costumes (yes I tried them on as preview and the hero costumes are ugly).

    I got the free dwarven crate from Morrowind physical CE and from that, I got 0 NixHounds

    In fact, all I got from it were consumables.

The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    First, I want to say it was such a slap in the face to those of us that bought the Dro-M'Mathra Senche for 4000 as a ONE TIME release to now see it in the crate menu for 100 gems. Why would you do that to your customers. I now know I don't have to send my money on your ONE TIME offers cuz I'll see them later in crates..

    Second, if I don't want one of those stupid pets or anything I get out of a crate, lets me get gems for it. I have so many costumes & pets I'll never use

    No where did they ever say it was a one time mount. They said it was available for a limited time in the crown store. This remains true if it comes back later for another limited time period, like a crown crate season.

    It's only a slap in the face if you added your own definition to "limited".

    So you all know. I vented this over the *** labrador hound in the last batch to support and demanded a refund due to too many duplications. Got 30% back.... (100% from XBL)

    I don't remember. At least 1. But I got 5 of the 100% xp scrolls and 1 150% xp scroll. So that was kind of nice I guess.

    In 30 crates I got 24 nix hounds. But I also got a lot of cool stuff and a lot of trash to convert to gems to get my hero costume so can't complain.

    But really ZOS? 24 out of 30???

    I had 15 or 16 out of 46 (chose 20 'cause that's what that rounds to). Just a bit ridiculous. At least I got the ebon senche I guess.

    I got one nix hound. I bought it with gems. It's the only thing in these crates that I can actually see myself using.

    The dwemer stuff just doesn't suit any of my characters. I have enough mounts. I do not use cosmetics or silly hats. The costumes I have passed on once already. I have the motifs.

    The sweetroll would be nice but I'm not going to try and get one. Far too expensive.

    Very much doubt I will be buying any dwemer crates.

    It feels kind of sad to be missing out on what could have been a chance for some fun.

    Feels like they screwed up the drop chance by giving it 10x multiplier or something.

    There were instances where I just got non-stop nix hounds and a few times I got 2 nix hounds in multiple crates alone. Utter bs

    This data is alarming. I don't believe in such RNG. If so many people experience this, it must be rigged.

    Of course it all depends on how many crates did you buy (and the poll, unfortunately, doesn't specify this). If 60 and you got 5-10 nix hounds, it's not that bad. Bad if less, then it's suspicious. Even RNG has some sort of probability of receiving certain items and in this case this probability is screwed.

    Although I don't think that ZOS will give us answers because it would mean that they would have to admit their own mistake of which players became victims for their real money.

    is this intended? seems really unreasonable to have this hig drop rates of one item? Do they publish the drop rates? If not isn't ESO also released in China where i think they have to publish drop rates?

    no, only reputable companies publish their odds.

    The crates are still terrible. I am just glad there's nothing this round that I want. The 2 times that I have tried them I ended up with "epic" mounts I will never use because they are ridiculous. Until I can turn in ANYTHING for gems in order to be able to purchase what I actually want I will remain annoyed at ZOS for their creepy gamble crates. They are a predatory practice and they are not good for customers.

    The company probably does not know the actual odds. You think the Nix-Hound invasion is deliberate? No, someone messed up.

    The graphs are obviously not very informative in this poll, but I'll add my results in text.

    Out of the 1 crate I got for free with Morrowind CE (I'm never buying these things with real money on purpose), I got 1 nix hound.
