Are those first 3 apex mounts the super rare ones? Like the ebon dwarven senche etc.?

Yeah apparently they are.

why dont they have crates and/or the rewards on PTS for testing?

dont get to see all animations in previews

I support this idea. I could pointlessly open crates and get cool things that I can never keep. But yeah, it would give you a way to check things out.

Honestly it might help Zeni sell crown crates because if someone got something on PTS and they fell in love with it, they might go back to live and buy some crates trying to get the same item.

Crown Crafting Motif 47: Buoyant Armiger Style

That is all.

Does this mean the prices will drop lol

@SASQUATCH0 nope, as these are all bound so the only effect it will potentially have on the in game economy is the cost charged for crafting in that style and maybe a few less people with the demand for it (but there will still be enough for it to be crazy price).

Oh ok, cuz farmin these motifs has been a good source of income for me lol

nice this:

Want to earn some of these creepy new crates for free? Log into the game and defeat any monster or minion every day, from Friday the 22nd until Sunday the 24th of September. Note that for the purpose of this event, each day begins at 12:00AM UTC and ends at 11:59PM UTC.


Just to be sure I get it right: I have to log in every day and kill just any monster, right?

Yes, any monster. Also note that player characters do not count.

Have you been to Cyrodiil? Some of them (us) ARE monsters!

I think it's so we can't spam-buy hundreds and thousands of crates for free, thus getting a large sample size to calculate drop rates from.

Will I keep the last crate season gems that didn't use?

Absolutely, you keep your gems.

Please tell me this will work on xbox also?!

Another chance at the sweetroll, yay! I want that little guy so bad!

I wonder what will be the new Nix Hound of this season...

Wasn't it five crates last time just for logging in?

Now I have to log in and kill a mob and only three crates?

What's the next step? One crate for a world boss?

Lol - I'm being a little facetious of course, it's great that there is an opportunity the earn some free ones, but I'm not going to applaud the appetizer too much

Last time only ESO+ subscribers could earn the crates. This time it looks like everyone can participate. I like that they are trying different things to see what will make crates more appealing to more people!

Crown Crafting Motif 47: Buoyant Armiger Style


Is this for real? Like for really real...? All that time spent farming it, having only one last page to go and they offer free crates that have a chance to include that?

Also @ZOS_JessicaFolsom, is there any way that if we get the apex mounts from these that we could maybe trade them in for gems, if we don't want them? Same thing with previous season's apex or extra-super rare mounts?

Some of us logged our chests (I know I have). I've opened nearly 150 in the last two days alone, and me personally, have never gotten a single page of the motif. And I've completed Vvardenfell on all the toons I've used to open the chests. RNG is a cruel mistress - I'm happy you have gotten so many pages, but you spare little thought for those of us who have zero and worked probably equally as hard.

With zero luck with the BA motif, was hoping it would be for sale in the Crown Store at some point, even if limited time. My fear was that it would end up in the crates - fear realized. As much as I want that motif, I'm not spending a dime on any crate to try and get it. So, it's back to farming chests, but more likely gold to afford these things - prices start at 150K for belts on XB.

These free crates offers are nice, and I will participate, but they don't entice me to purchase even a single crate. Maybe I'll be lucky to pull a BA motif from the three I get. More than likely, I'll get one of the MANY items I do NOT want. There are far too many tattoos in these things - I don't use 'em, don't want 'em. And none of the mounts I want, nor the sallets. I would like to have the Sheo costume. Already have dragon warrior and some other things. Overall...meh.

EDIT: If they'd give us the option to exchange cosmetics that we don't have but ABSOLUTELY don't want, for a reduced rate (perhaps half what we would get if we already had it in our collection), that would make these things slightly more attractive to me. As it is, I just don't want to fill my collection with crap that I would NEVER EVER use. I already have one - one of those stupid flower caps.

I really hope those two skull sallets look different from the one we spent countless hours in Bloodroot Forge to get. It would really be a shame if an achievement award could not be distinguished from a cash hat.
