Has anyone gotten a radiant apex mount this round?

I’ve opened 105-120 crates this round.
I’ve heard others mention the awful drop rate. I can definitely guarantee they are worse this time around.
In these crates I’ve gotten
Zero apex mounts
Zero radiant mounts
Zero furnishings worth 100 gems
Zero black saber cat
Zero black saber cat pet
Zero dead water skin
I’ve gotten the spider mount twice (which of course I bought with crowns when it was first released) and the multicolored skin.
Besides that it’s all been the same crap over and over and over.
So. Has anyone gotten or seen a radiant this round? I usually see people with them, but not this time.
This is the first time I actually want one.
I’ve spent around 4 million gold buying crates from others (no way I’ll do this with real cash)
I know the drop rates are awful. It just seems even worse this time.
I ended up buying the senche lizard mount and the dead water skin with gems.
I have a ton of gems which I’ll hold onto for future apex mounts.

Latios✭✭✭✭✭Not me. I got the guar-lizard in 60 crates, also bought with gold, but not more than that. I’ve seen a single dude with a radiant apex.The Eon Pokémon.0 -
Diabolus1989✭✭✭15 crates: horse-lizard, wolf-lizard, bright-throat skin, voriplasm staff, daemon chicken and some tattoos.
No radiant mount but I'm happy with what I got.3 -

✭✭✭✭✭Happily, I am not interested in pretty much everything those crates have to offer except one of the killer plants but I won't be buying crates for that.
Learned long ago that nothing good ever comes out of them and it's just a grind for gems to get what I actually would like to have.Beta tester November 20136 -

✭No money for crates right now even with the crown sale. It never fails, when they do a sale I'm so broke I still can't buy. I really love that wolf based lizard mount too, would love a shot at it, but alas.The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls. ~Pablo Picasso0 -
DBZVelena✭✭✭✭✭Did you know there is actually a website dedicated to researching the drop rates?
https://www.crowncrates.com/
it even as a add on that auto-send your drop results to them so they can add it to their research.What are Natch Potes? Can you eat those?

✭I spent more on crates this season than any other season. And got less of the things I wanted. I did get the senche lizard mount. Most of the things I wanted I had to buy with gems though, most of what I got was nonsense - neither skin dropped in 60-75 crates for example. Completely dumpster fire drop rates for me this season.PC-NA - formerly, mommadani907Guild: Weeping Angels - Co-GMTwitter: @ Loralai_907 several Alt accounts....CP 1700+Active characters:Fauna Rosewood ( Bosmer Stam DK - Master Crafter/AD)///Loralai Darknova (Drunken Zombie Bosmer Stam Sorc - PvP/AD)Lilith Darknova ( Dunmer Mag DK - Master Crafter - PvP/AD)///and roughly 1billion alts1 -

Its an very nice overview, however they should list number of actual rewards in addition to % at least for the apex stuff.Did you know there is actually a website dedicated to researching the drop rates?
https://www.crowncrates.com/
it even as a add on that auto-send your drop results to them so they can add it to their research.
So far 7 has gotten an radiant apex, one wolf and 3 of the other two, so low sample its imposible to tell if the wolf is rarer than the others.Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.0 -
thanoscopter✭✭✭Not a lot of information about the mounts has been put up it seems.
This is the Burning Horze Lizard. It's a strong mount because you have the option to set it on fire for quite a while by pressing spacebar once. I also know the Chilling Senche shoots frost breath from seeing the video of it.
The Venomous Wolf...can someone clarify what it does?
I reckon the drop rate is low because they have extra fixins it seems. Also, I don't think 100-120 crates guarantees a Radiant Apex mount in any season. Correct me if I'm wrong.Edited by thanoscopter on December 21, 2018 10:24PM1 -

It’s like the fire but with glowing green mist instead. I’ve had both. Horns are around the same too. Mount upgrades on it are less noticeable than the apex horse thoWuuffyy,

Sevn✭✭✭✭✭
✭Bought and opened 35 crates.
I got one radiant apex mount, the horse lizard (wanted the cat as I hate ESO horses), dead-water skin, the lantern mantis which I turned into gems, the Voriplasm motifs except the staff, butterscotch dragon frog, dead-water blood face tattoo, Kaleidotropic dragon frog, every superior reward except the Bright-throat algae face tattoo and a bunch of XP scrolls.
I'm a fairly lucky person and I usually have really good luck when it comes to rng, but I've discovered that I get way more items when I open crates on a low level alt, non-vet. My unproven theory is the system gives more rewards to lower levels to trick them into buying more crates. On my secondary accounts that are non-vet I also have gotten radiant mounts, (I have 4 or 5 total) crazy theory I know lol.There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man, true nobility is being superior to your former self

✭It took 60 crates for me to score an apex....."Stendarr's mercy be upon you, for the vigil has none to spare."0 -

✭Think I've had 60+ crates, not even a normal mount. had to buy one with my gems.
The rng this time round has not been in my favour, also the selection from gems I feel is pretty poor. No motifs for 200 gems, instead it's a weapon style.PC NA - GreggsSausageRoll0 -

✭✭✭✭✭These crates were great if you collect pets and body paints. Mounts not so much. I only bought a 4 pack, no mounts, but the only one I like is the lizard bear, but I can live without it

✭✭✭✭Although I didn't get a radiant apex, I still think I was extraordinarily lucky with these crates. I was only aiming to get one lizard mount for my Argonians. Based on my past experience I was expecting to have to buy up to 60 crates so that I could get it with gems. It turned out that I only had to buy 30 crates. I got the senche and camel apex, and a hist guar. I also got so many trade-ins and duplicates (including a duplicate camel apex) that I got the 400 gems I was after as well, but I'm going to save them for the next crate season

History, like a human being, is thirsty when it wakes from its slumber…History wants to drink up an enormous amount of blood. And even if history has tired of drinking blood, that’s only in regards to the amount. But what about quality? The larger the sacrifice is, the more delighted the cruel gods will be.0 -

✭✭Opened 120+ and got nothing. Only two mounts in the whole lot. Very few good things, actually. Incredibly bad luck. Regret buying them, honestly. Splurged on the sale because I just got a new job.EP: Slania Isara : Harambe Was an Inside Job1 -

✭Threads like this pop up every single crate season. People have good RNG one season, bad RNG the next. Suddenly drop rates are perceived as worse.

✭✭✭✭I finally got my first mount that wasn't free. I bought a fine black horse for my new female nord tank. With in game gold. 42K. Ooooh, I don't like spending that coin.
See, crown crates might be enticing if they hadn't been giving them away for free, so we all know what absolute and utter crap they generally contain.
You have no excuse.0
