like, if you devs are looking for a thing you could improve. those crates have been around forever, and haven't changed or improved.
i don't think i've ever gotten anything good, or higher rarity from a twitch drop crate, like ever. so you could do better in this area for sure.

    Yes, I've gotten the pet and the mount. The problem is those are the only 2 good things in the crate, and they have apex level chances of dropping, so most of the crates have nothing but gems. Once you accept it's just 4-5 gems with a small chance at 16 or so if you get an xp scroll and a tiny chance of one specific pet or mount, they're fine. The gems add up over time to let you get something nice occasionally.

    If you think of them in the context of normal crates then yeah, they suck because most of the time you get nothing even theoretically nice.

    With how they are the free crates for stuff; I've always felt like they are bad advertising. I open an RNG box to find garbage every time; why would I want to pay for some?

    been opening them every chance I get, for a little bit over a year now, and I always get potions.
    I just look at them now as 4 gem crates so I don't get disappointed

    I get exactly what I want from those crates, Gems. They could however be a lot more generous with the amount, at least putting them in line with the real crates.

    Change your view for this crates. They are just free gems and with a bit of luck you can get that pet, the mount and sometimes a 150% scroll (which can be converted to 36 gems or so). The good loot can appear on the additional 5th card.

    How do you know when there is going to be a drop?? I want to get these crates but never know when or where I have to go to get them. Only gotten one since I found out they exist, from the coral crab stream that was hyped up everywhere.

    They really should update the Twich Drops Schedule sometimes... It's often several weeks behind.

    Yes, just yesterday I got a duplicate of a mount that I had already got in the past and it was automatically converted in 130 gems, which is lovely.
    The crates are good as they are, ZoS are not obligated to give free crates in the first place.

    ANY ESO Event, Any New ESO DLC/Chapter/Major Update: ,just log in twitch tv(you have to link your ESO account to it), all official streamers have drops enabled, Any Offical Bethesda ESO Stream, sadly the page where it's supposed to be listed doesn't seem to be updated very often, these are normally just 1 drop/crate per campaign unless stated otherwise.

    The stream crates are just for the gems, IMO. Hoping for anything more is gonna lead to disappointment.

    More importantly, you get an extra chance to talk to Pacrooti 🐱

    The pet 3 or 4 times now
    The 36 gem XP scroll other times

    The gems add up to a nice item or 2 a season

    In the app it's usually ahead a few weeks. You can see locked crates even before news articles

    PC EU: 2 times mount once the pet.
    PC Na: 2 times mount 2 times pet.

    It was easier to get them few years back when there were more twitch crates dropping then nowadays.

    Got the mount. Which was nice.

    Mostly exchange everything for gems.
