Official Discussion Thread for "Discover the Reaper’s Harvest & Earn Free Crown Crates this Weekend"

    1) Just want to put in my vote that ALL Crown Crate items be convertible to gems.

    I didn't buy any Dwarven crates b/c the list of possible drops was huge, I only wanted a couple of items from the lists, and since they can't be converted, the rest are just dead cards if I pull them. I already have costumes I won't wear and pets I won't use from previous crate seasons. So I passed on the whole thing, and only opened my free crates. And now I have Dwemer face items I won't wear....

    2) LOVE the free crates for log-ins. Great way to get people excited about the crates, as someone said previously.

    3) Like someone else in this thread, I am sad the Dark Shaman costume isn't part of this season's crates. It's the thing I most regret not picking up earlier. Maybe it could be included as a possible reward for the Halloween event?

    I wish you guys would have added more costumes
    They usually add a bunch of gender-specific costumes, hairstyles, facial accessories, etc so I'm glad they didn't this time. I only have male characters so I don't wanna end up with female stuff I won't use. If only we could turn the stuff we don't want into gems but nope.

    Edit: I thought the new crates had less gender-specific stuff but I was wrong, there's a bunch of lip tints, etc.

    So if I may just ask. ALL players can get the crates by killing ANY MONSTER in ANY PLACE in Tamriel? And I dont have to be an ESO+ Subscriber to get these FREE crates? Does this sound right?

    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.

    They don't want people to know the actual droprates though.

    I really don't care for any of the mounts in this season anyway...so I guess I'll be using my saved up crown gems to get that Buoyant Armiger Motif book... 1000+ chests opened...ZERO motifs looted...

    Aaaand what counts as a monster? I.e. Mudcrabs and skeevers or just daedra and undead?

    Most of the items seem like a hit or miss to me... but free is free! Nice gesture on Zenimax/Bethesda's part I'd say. For three crates I'm bound to get something I'm cool with right? :p

    For what it is worth to ZOS, there is not one item in the "Spoiler" lists of the OP that I would want to have. Period.

    Also, I have no idea what would be in either the Fine category or the Common category. I don't play the Crown Crate game.

    Frankly, it's rather odd to me that ZOS has not received a cease-and-desist court order for running a game of chance which includes a proprietary "coin" (Crowns) purchased with US Dollars. Interstate gambling is still illegal, as far as I know. Maybe I should ask the local US Attorney about it. Their office is about a 20-minute walk from where I live.

    I've been waiting for dark shaman costume to come back for a year now. Thought it will come with skeletal crates because it fits the theme, apparently not.
    Its a costume that is highly demanded and will sell just great but for whatever reason it just doesn't come. Guess its time to finally be disappointed, if it ain't coming in Halloween, guess it never will...

    Starts at 1159pm UTC... that means it's already begun... he doesn't need to be from the future. The time is now. If ZoS had not been so vague on this one it would be easier I'm sure to follow.

    But it says crates are delivered on September 27th, so event begun or not the delivery date has not arrived, so he is definitely NOT from the future...

    We know this much at least

    A lack of ambiguity from Zenimax would have been nice - like confirmation of the kill and free crown crate - rather than having to have faith we've done it.... but that's ZoS... ambiguous to the very end so they don't have to commit to anything they've said.

    According to the data mining, it apparently reduces any research items you have by 7 days.

    Yes, you read that right. 7 full days. Unless they changed it for the live servers. Say goodbye to year long research grinds. lol

    I've been looking forward to these crates.

    One question though...

    Are we (the players) going to see the drop rates of various things improved over last season, or have the drop rates and chances gotten worse again for us to get higher level rewards?

    Buoyant Armiger in the gambling boxes already? I thought you folks only released motifs on the store once enough people got them in game. Or does it not count because it's not a direct purchase? I'm pretty darn confident that we haven't reached the point of people knowing it in-game to warrant a CS release.

    They probably didn't want to wait the two years it would take for it to be a viable motif in game before selling it. :trollface:
