Daily rewards usefulness

    The daily rewards are not why i play. I use an add-on so that I don't have to even see it, and often don't even know what the reward is. If they stopped doing it, and didn't tell me, it might be a while before I noticed.

    The only time that really changes is when the month is special. Lots of gold. DLC reward. Stuff like that. Then it wants to command my attention. I really just want to play and not feel i have to try to achieve some special monthly attendance reward. I would rather not have the pull from ZOS trying to get me to do it.

    In all fairness, they are entitled to give us nothing. So I don't really care what is rewarded. While on the surface a lot of it may look like junk, but it's actually quite useful when making alt characters. I'm not going to waste my good pots and food on them, so I use the crap I get from rewards. Then there's the exp scrolls, crates (which I use the gems to buy mount upgrades).
    It's not all bad. Just depends on how you look at it.

    Those who wanting more transmute stones i have already opened a thread asking ZOS to at least increase the daliy dungeon crystal drop from 1 to 5 :) The thread name is a Litle Suggestion. Post your thought on that thread as well :)

    I agree with a previous post that suggested we should be able to sell things we won’t use such as xp scrolls.

    Would be even better if we could swap them for crown gems 😈

    As far as I remember this system was not there since the beginning of The Elder Scrolls Online, and as such I treat it personally as a convenience reward for the fact that I already have planned to log-in and enjoy the universe within the game.

    I think that they are somehow useful right now, and the last month's dress, and this month's pet are a gift from Zenimax to us players.

    This system should not reward entitlement, instead it should be composed of small gifts and surprises of convenience as Zenimax sees fit, because this is only a luxury addition, not a thing mandatory for the gameplay or something that I bought the game for (no, I did not buy The Elder Scrolls Online to receive things just because I bought it - I bought it to enjoy the gameplay).

    It's not so much that the items are not what they were before, but the fact that it's just the same stuff over and over in varying quantity - it bores me and offers absolutely zero incentive to login every day.

    I don't know why they would bother to introduce the daily reward system, increase it from the previous 3-weeks of rewards to a full month, and then fill it with such blandness that it might as well not even be there. Add some variety to it, or scrap it completely!

    It's free stuff. On occasion it's a free mount or a free pet or a free outfit. More rarely it's a free crate and if the RNG god blesses you, you can get an Apex mount or...Radiant Apex mount. :0 :astonished::hushed:

    I will agree that it seems like we get more and more gold or potions. I don't think anyone ever buys potions because they have spare crowns. Whenever one gets potions it's "oh woopie.....x.x".

    So yes I'd like to see better rewards. Rewards that make it worth coming online once a day everyday. For some people that is easy as pie. For others it can be difficult, we all have different amounts of free time for gaming ESO.

    However I say again, I am happy with free things. I'm not to picky about what those free things are.

    Back in last summer, the daily rewards was added. The reward list was quite interesting. Crates, gems, food, potions, clothes, etc... these rewards were good and quite interesting until last August. - When basicly the last quite interesting series was.
    Since that there was not really big gifts from it. Some costume, some pet, or lots of scrolls. etc. But nothing like a crate or something you would say its useful and *damn im gonna wear it/ride it!* - and goon. As you can see the rewards lately, (since december) got quite 'bare'. 1 pet or item per month and the rest is kinda useless for endgame players. If you all remember they told us that slast year the rewards will be revisited to be more useful. But as i can see its kinda no?

    So what do you guys think? Does @Zos keeping their word about that what they said months ago or they are doing the small sweet lies from Master Godd How.rd :)

    The daily rewards have definitely taken a turn for the worse in recent months.

    I"m guessing when they were offering crates and other goodies they saw a decrease in their crown store business so they decided to scrap that idea. But lately you're right, the rewards have been "meh". I could really care less about them.

    The change makes perfect sense if you think of it as paid advertising rather than an actual rewards system.

    The only thing I want more of are the tripots. i've been 9-trait on everything for a while so I don't need research scrolls and while I keep the xp scrolls, I really don't need them. I wouldn't mind a full month of nothing but tripots.

    Yes. they do.
    It's free stuff. It baffles me that we got a dlc for free, multiple costumes, multiple interesting pets, 100k gold, and random small goodies. There was a point at launch where I spent 1000's and 1000's of crowns on some of the most basic pets, costumes and mounts in the game. Now a days, their is an abundance of flashy effects and the outfit system, they've done a great job in handing stuff out for free and I find little reason to spend more crowns like I use to on the same vanity items.

    Crates were awesome and nice to get, they kept me logging in more than the costumes (they're meh), but none of it was ever required or expected from ZOS.

    Their mission is to keep players coming back for more instead of abandoning the game and potentially never coming back (although this is normal and most people do come back). They succeeded. I never expected a daily login for this game and logging in to earn some daily transmute crystals was enough for me. So I have 0 complaints.

    The amount of free vanity items we have received is more than what most games will EVER offer, so they can put whatever they want in the daily rewards as far as I'm concerned, even if I do miss the crates sometimes to earn some gems to spend on what I actually want. (THANK you for bringing back storm crates, I finally have the Storm Atro Wolf Mount for my sorcs. Saved up for years)

    No. they are not.
    I always find an excuse to make a new character (he says, having made his 14th two days ago) and I’ll want two Necromancers so I don’t mind the XP scrolls. However, that will get old eventually. I can use the tri-pots on my PVP Healplar, so they’re useful enough as well. I love getting pets, hats, etc because I can never have too many of those except I hate that the actual outfits are almost always feminine; all of my characters are masculine men. I have a crafter who knows every trait, motif, etc so the crafting scrolls are completely useless to me and stuff like poisons and food are useless to anybody really. I literally accept the poisons and food and then immediately delete them from my inventory. If the things which come in Crown Crates could be converted to Crown Gems, that’s make me very happy.

    I missed out on all the good stuff so I don't really have a point of reference. I was taking a break from the game when ZOS was stuffing the monthly login thing with crates.

    I like getting the random mount or pet or outfit but for the most part it seems to be on par with what GW2 offers.

    From a business perspective, I see why they can't afford to give away items they could be selling. But, on the other hand, I wish it wasn't such boring stuff.

    I mean.... Crown poisons and food have little use... Crown tri-pots have limited use but they're good enough to use on a tank. Otherwise, I'm fine with XP Scrolls etc.

    Although, given the recent changes, how about including race change tokens in the daily rewards?

    The three stats are nice for tank in easier dungeons.
    Necromancer will obviously have 100% up-time of xp scroll.
    Crown repair is nice in wipe feast dungeons as in first clear dlc.
    My issue is that its just bland pulp, Yes get why they removed the crates, has 300 gems left.
    Pretty much handle fine adjustments like an drunk driver hitting bumpers on both sides on an 8 lane highway.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
