The real rng is far less forgiving. Generally, it takes around $600 worth of crates to get all three radiant mounts. This season was closer to $1200.
I can say this after now owning 17 radiant mounts. They only drop on the 5th bonus card, you can tell youre getting it before you flip, there will be a different color shimmer around the card. I was upset this season, so I called ZOS directly. They said they made this season more difficult and that it is rng. Its not real rng, because if it were, you would get a radiant duplicate eventually. I have never, ever gotten a duplicate radiant for gems. EVER. So its not rng in the true sense, its rng after you spend a certain amount.

Believe what you want. I have all three of those mounts and nothing changes that.
Fake hunted a radiant (any kind and not a particular one...) for a laugh...
Got "!!! RADIANT !!! APEX !!! : Fungiflare Wolf" on my first try.
/jokes
It was the 352nd try.
So this would of taken me 23.46 packs of 15 crates at a rate of 5,000 crowns EACH.
That's a casual 117,333 crowns.
The normal top bracket deal for crowns is 21,000 for $110.97 AUD.
So it would of took $620 AUD (more actually since it was almost 5.5x 21,000 packs so I would of had to spend money on the extras at a higher cost and not the top bracket discount cost).
$620 for a radiant of any kind. As a side not it was a wolf which I dont care for. Since I would of only wanted the senche. However I literally got tired of clicking the button to look for the exact one I would of wanted. Let that settle in... I got tired of pressing my mouse looking for it... it is that low of a drop rate...
More jokes though. 117,333 crowns at a PC NA price of 200:1 is 23,466,600 gold. 23.5M.
So in the end I got bored of fake hunting a drop because the rate was so low and took $620 AUD or 23.5M in game gold in this fake waste of time.
I will literally never try and use these things lol...
