Bounty on Scalecaller Apex drops

Faunter

As we all know, the new Scalecaller Crown Crate season will be starting soon. In honor of this momentous occasion, I thought I would put out a bounty on the drop rates of Apex and Radiant Apex rewards.

In the past, there have been reports of 2 Apex rewards from a single crate, and it is theoretically possible.
However, this has never happened a single time in nearly 25,000 crates recorded by Faunter's Crown Crate Tracker addon users.

UPDATE: After almost 30,000 crates recorded with the addon, someone was finally able to get 2 Apex mounts from a single crate. Congratulations to @Samar.Brund on the NA Megaserver! You are truly blessed by the Divines.

I'm looking for someone who is able to provide absolutely undeniable proof in this thread of having received 3 Apex rewards OR 2 Radiant Apex rewards from the same crate. As far as I'm aware, this has never transpired before. If you are able to make this happen, you will forever go down in history as a Crown Crate God, the luckiest person in Tamriel and beyond. On the other hand, if you're able to show that you've gotten 2 Apex rewards at the same time, you'll be hailed as a Crown Crate Saint, one of the very few who were chosen by the Eight themselves. Good luck, and may Stendarr's blessing be upon you in this endeavor.

Not everyone might get that lucky this season, but what about you? What's the rarest item you've gotten from your Scalecaller crates? Be sure to spread the word!

    I think you can only receive an apex reward through the "bonus" card, so it would be impossible to ever receive two from the same crate.

    Short answer is DKs likely won't be seeing a ton of changes before we go live; this class is still quite powerful (as it should be being a tank), even after some of the adjustments we've made to other classes and abilities.

    No, this isn't correct. Though the bonus card does seem to be more likely to produce an Apex, that might be simply because its drop table doesn't include trash consumables, so it's pulling from a shorter list of possible outcomes.

    I think 800 would be more than fair, that's like freaking 400$ irl almost if your unlucky with gems

    @Asgari same thing as my other post...still feel sorry for you but that's now how things work also I hope everyone is enjoying their 200-300$+ apex rewards compared to what we could have had for an actual 40$ without crates...sorry this is toxic but right now the crates get another RNG... the RNG of the RNG...seriously just no...no matter how much I like senches I will only keep paws crossed for when we get free crates (my poison supply runs endless).

    How do you get $400? That seems ridiculously high considering the doubles you'd end up getting and that by the time you buy that many crates you're bound to get some valuable things you can decon. I don't think it'd be wise for ZOS to price a Radiant Mount that low, honestly. I mean, I'd love if they did, but I think they'd be leaving money on the table.

    Yeah they've diluted the legendary rewards because they know most people want a mount. Sad.

    On the plus side they will trade for more gems than before.

    Maybe its just me, but i always look at what is in each tier and make note of what i DON"T want vs the Stuff I want, and then factor in the wouldn't mind having. Now if i get the don't wants in free crates i'm cool with that because that means they were free and i didn't waste any of my crowns on them, so if I want to gamble for the stuff i want i am more likely to just get gems which is a good alternative.
    Now fortunatly the stuff i want is usually never the apex, which means i can get gems to get whatever i want. This is the first season that the apex mounts don't really bother me. Don't get me wrong, those are some cool looking mounts and stuff, but those don't fit with any of my toons really. This season has burly snow ready animals which i can see using.
    But looking at this season in general, there is not much else i really desire in this batch. It seems there are too many items in that NO way don't want, and only a very few wants, and even then its not a heavy want.

    I think in general they have to many items in the tiers and why some are 40gems vs 16gems or even 100gems seems to be questionable.

    Once again. If you are someone that wants an apex these are harder to swallow all those lower items you are going to endure. If you want a radiant….good luck cuz that is the only way.
    Ummm stuff… about stuff…or something.

    I've always been of the opinion that making some of the rewards not purchasable with gems defeats the entire purpose of the initial crown crate design.

    However, it appears that they've completely removed the following items from the Bonus reward (5th card in middle) drop table this season: Grand Gold Coast Experience Scroll + Instant All Research, Major (Legendary/Yellow) and Major Gold Coast Experience Scroll + Instant All Research (Epic/Purple). I suppose that getting bonus cards will be much more exciting now as a result of this change.

    I'm fairly certain I got a grand XP scroll from one of my bonus cards. So that's off the table.

    I got the galvanize horse, the frost senche, 2x droma motifs, 1x more motif (celestial I think), 3x of the gold quality exp scrolls, 2x gold masks, a dragon status, some pet, and I think I got a good quality research scroll

    Overall I don't like my pull much. I have 1400 gems now and it bums me out I can't buy the 3x super rare mounts.

    I got two Apex mounts (Camel and Guar) from one of the last free Flame Atronach Crates. Never screenshotted it though cuz it didn't seem special (very rare - yes, but not special). It is definitely possible to get Apex rewards from one of the 4 normal, non-bonus cards (got my Skeletal Senche from a non-bonus card). So in that flame crate I just had 1x Apex in bonus and 1x in normal.

    @Dymence Are you positive that the scroll came from a Scalecaller Crate? So far, people have recorded around 5,000 of those with the addon, and 879 contained a bonus card, none of which were an Experience Scroll or an Instant Research. Either the drop rate is incredibly low and you're insanely lucky, or you got it from another crate type. From a purely statistical stand point, I find the latter to be more believable. :tongue: Do you have a screenshot by any chance?

    a tenth of a percent chance at a radiant apex mount.

    le sigh, thank you for that smack of reality to the face, those mounts are aimed at the "whales" and just not for the majority of the player base, no point in trying.

    thanks for saving me from spending money on crates though <3

    It was definitely from scalecaller crates, as I buy 15 crates every season when they come out.

    I had 4 bonus cards. The peryite statue, the sabertooth cub pet, the wayrest suede doublet ensemble and an XP scroll. As far as I remember, of course. I realise it seems more statistically believable that I simply remember incorrectly.

    Maybe someone else will get it and it will pop up in your data ;)
