So not sure if other people noticed but I just see the coral mudcrab is in the legendary category instead of the epic. From the datamine prior to todays release it was supposed to be in the epic category. Or am I halucinating?
EDIT: My point being (since it seems not obvious to people) it costed 40 gems but now costs 100, pretty huge rip-off imho.

Magicka sorcerer from start until the end. Always. Through the good times and the bad, even now when its probably saddest PvE dps it has ever been.
Even as an owner of one radiant apex mounts I am against radiant apex mounts and anything thats not obtainable by direct purchase.

    Didn’t that item JUST get removed from the direct purchase option?

    No, it's precise point. Precise point that ZOS has so small resources for ESO now, that there was nobody to check and prevent this embarrassment. This is just hilarious, to turn 700 crown crab into 100 gem crab. 1 gem = 40 crowns from my experience when I bought crates in huge packs in autumn when game was relatively stable. So poor crab price just increased 5 times in 1 day.. or it is just a trash to fill legendary roster.
    I imagine how "happy" will be people when they see yesterday's crab under golden card.

    Please, if u dont know facts, why to talk. The crab cost 1200 crowns, then got placed in crown crates, it was 40 gems before the release, as it was epic card. Now at the release its 100 gems legendary card. THAT is the point.

    It is pretty legendary though. Dope crab is dope he has a HUGE claw and a TEENY claw!

    Was this a mistake in the original lack of respect for the boss crab or a mistake in over-valuing it after release?
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    1200 crowns vs 100 gems is still rip-off. Especially for pet available for crown sale yesterday.

    I think u are missing the point. Entirely. I am precisely saying that we ARE getting ripped-off because it was for 40 gems and now 100. Geez cant people read...?

    I don't get it, you think that it is rip-off, Jhalin thought it is rip-off, I think this is rip-off, everybody thinks the same, where is point missed? :) we just added that this is not only rip-off, this is also an insult to put yesterday's crab in today's menu with 3x price.

    Let me highlight what u said: "1200 crowns vs 100 gems is still rip-off." This is like if u completely ignored the fact it was supposed to be 40 gems (which to me is much better than 1200 crowns mind u), because of the word "still" sounding like u dont really understand whats going on here. I dont really care it was in crown store for 1200 crown the day before, thats really beyond the point, to me its cheaper if its 40 gems, thats why I waited and didnt buy it. HOWEVER they CHANGED it from 40 to 100 gems now. It WAS 40 gems and they ninja changed it to 100.

    ^ Average drop of gems from box is within 8-12 (if you already have items lol), so at average 10. Cost of one gem then is 400/10 = 40 crowns. Ok, you are buying them in packs, so 5000/150=33.3333... 40*33.3=1300. No way it was cheaper. There is one simple rule with gems and crowns - if it can be bought with crowns, buy it with crowns.

    Raz-kitten was in the same price territory back in the days, limited tho, but still the same. It's golden card too. If you're going to talk about rip-offs, consider this as well please.

    There's a similar reason as to why I walk lopsided.
