    what counts as a monster?

    Normaly any aggressive enemie(red outline)
    Enemy npc also count, players does not, critters with 1 HP does not, not sure about neutrals like mudcrabs.

    Saw some players pulled the 3 screwers south of the Rawl clothing station into town so others would get credit.
    Killed one and just dodged and blocked the other two :)
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    This kind of giveaways are just not fair. I think it would be better not give anything than giving like this. The real problem is PC vs. console difference. On PC we need to watch one stream in specific moment, which is horrible not only in Europe (people have life, work, have to sleep). Console players can just log in during much more sensible time window.
    My idea is - instead of "everything vs. nothing", please divide giveaways between stream viewers and the rest of playerbase. For example - mount from twitch AND crates from logging in. Or two crates from twitch and two crates from logging in. Would be fair, don't you think?

    Monday is a holiday for most christian nations anyway no?
    What holiday is it that you think most christian nations observe on Monday? I know it's not a holiday in Canada, and a quick Google search came up with the following holidays on Monday (in no particular order):
    • Alcoholic Anonymous Founders' Day
    • National Iced Tea Day
    • Mom's Equal Pay Day
    • National Black Cow Day
    • Ballpoint Pen Day
    • National Herb and Spice Day
    • Portugal Day
    • Last day of Shavuot
    • Whit Monday
    Personally I'd never heard of any of those.

    Monday is the day of uuuuuughhh.

    PC players can earn crates every month. And those crates, even if they don't reward a mount, give you consumables you can turn into gems and redeem for mounts. Do you also think PC players shouldn't be given those crates because console players can't get them?

    Yes. PC and consoles should be treated equally.

    PC players earn crates every month? Huh? We can?

    What am I missing?

    (And yes, actually. There should be comparable reward for comparable activity across all platforms. Period. So yes, if pcers are getting free crates every month consoles don't have access to - that's not right and should be changed.)

    I haven't been here for long, but googling "twitch drops eso" I can see schedules for drops for every month of this year, except the current one. So yes, drops are available monthly.

    Tis lucky at least that this isn't a new mount, just a rerelease. Nice to those who don't have it, but not necessary for those who do or are willing to hold out for another method of obtaining.

    Free mount is awesome. I've only recently bought this mount for 100 gems because I think it's one of the best looking senches but I still think it's a great giveaway and told all my friends who played ESO in the past about it and they seemed excited to get it and come back to the game for a look see.

    What if we already have the mount? We get nothing but the trash crate?

    Looks that way. I also have it, purchased from the crown store on release

    I foresee a lot of pissed off PC users who for some reason will have missed this announcement, or not have their account linked to twitch and miss out getting the mount and crates. Moreso because console users don't have to do anything special. They only need to be accidentally playing the game at the right time and kill 1 monster.

    Just like with every patch, major announcement that people would have known for weeks, there are ALWAYS people who missed out on the information somehow, and comment about brand new things on patch day/xpac day/whatever. A good chunk of those players will have been playing the game during the time that console players were, but unlike the console players get absolutely nothing.

    I will be tuning in of course. But that's my prediction.

    Yeah, so we can't have a proper tiger mount, as a tiger was a free loyalty mount and a few people (at least some of whom bought their accounts on eBay) might object.

    Not on the basis that they like the way it looks, or like tigers, but on the basis that they use it to try to brag (sometimes, obviously, falsely) about how they have played since launch/beta.

    But, we can have a mount we paid gems for (having paid real money for Crowns, for crates) given away free to people who watch a stream.

    While receiving nothing else as compensation.

    Have I understood this right?

    This was a limited edition mount that some of us paid for... now it will be free to everyone, EXCEPT those that already paid for it, becuase they already have it. Little bit of a slap in the face to those who supported the store by buying it... but a double slap when everyone starts running around on it.

    Can anyone else see the issue with this?

    I am sure all those who don't already own it will be happy though, and I don't begrudge anyone for that :)

    Yeah, I paid 100 gems for it.

    That equals quite a lot of real money.

    I have this mount already, but 5 crates is still nice. even if all you get is consumables, aka gems - those gems can still buy a few riding lessons, speeding up new necro mount leveling :)
    Yep, I got this mount too. Probably from a Crown Crate that I have opened long time ago.
    The question is: Do we get gems / crowns instead of a mount, or maybe a Runebox with this mount ? Or maybe... Nothing ?

    nope, just the crates, if you already have the mount. that's the precedent anyways; back when they gave away white wolf - it was the same way. on one hand, it would be nice if we got something extra, on the other hand... I had that mount for years now, so I don't mind it being a freebie now. and crates are good for gems. I've given up hope when it comes to getting black and red kitty mount, but new necros could use some extra riding lessons.

    I've had mine for about 3 months.

    I paid money for the Crowns for the crates.

    This is really not OK...

    I don't care about other people having it.

    In fact, I'm happy for them.

    I just want my 100 gems back.

    Okay, they havent given us any information about Senche mount and compensating the paid users, now that the stream is about 10 hours away.
    I am a little salty about this but im thankful for the 5 crates, but this just motivates me NOT to buy anything from the crown store anymore if they going to throw us free items few months after its "limited edition release please buy it wont return again this year" items.

    There havent been any messages/answers on any platforms by ZOS to address this issue, so pretend that they dont care and they just want to make more money off its paid users as they duped us well.

    They never said it wouldn't be available for free at a later date. They never said it wouldn't be available at a discount at a later point. It's the same as any other purchase.
