My RNG was OK, I guess. I got a lipstick (looks pretty good), a helmet (not impressed), and a mini-mammoth (meh), but hey, at least I got something just for logging in, so I'm not complaining.

✭✭✭✭✭I can't log in yet and I think I'm a few days behind, but after the free psijic crates a few years back the bar has been very low for me: any free crates which don't give me a spider are ok.
I actually asked customer support to delete it from my account, which they did but I always worry that if it happens again they'll tell me they can't keep making the same change and just leave it there.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

✭✭✭✭Some kind of skin markings, which I will never use and the Pocket Mammoth which is cute and will probably find a home in a house at some point. 😀When people say to me........

✭✭✭✭✭I‘m pretty pleased by the outcome, got a legendary reward that‘s worth 33 gems and some other stuff, overall I’d say 50-60 gems which is decent enough for free crates.Edited by Seraphayel on July 21, 2023 11:06AMPS5EUAldmeri Dominion- Khajiit Arcanist -3 -

✭A rather ugly circlet and clockwork apostle body markings. I might use the markings for one of my more mechanically inclined characters.PC EU1 -

Overland difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including One Tamriel, an overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver & Gold as a "you think you do but you don't" - tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game. I'm bored of dungeons, I'm bored of trials; make a personal difficulty slider for overland. It's not that hard.1 -

✭This time I got it quiet right, first time I felt pushed to purchase more: 1 Bear mount (not Apex), 1 Nixad pet, 1 Senche cub pet, 1 Marking.
If every crate drop would be like these two, people would buy more imho. We'll see if they stick with this rate or I'll come back to bad luck next times...A: "We, as humans, should respect and take care of each other like in a Co-op, not a PvP 🌸"

ganzaeso✭✭✭✭✭I have to wait till tomorrow because work tired me out too much one night. I have not been impressed with crate drops for some time, however. I no longer trust that they are completely random.(Math before coffee, except after 3, is not for me)2 -

I'm in the same boat as you having to wait until tomorrow, and my luck has been equally bad. I don't really think it's nonrandom though. I just think the drop rates on anything desirable are so low as to be nearly insignificant for anyone who isn't buying crates 15 at a time.2 -

you just got lucky
Agreed. I once got an apex mount from a free crate, but it wasn't because those crates were better, I just got lucky. Other people only got face markings or accessories from the same crates, and at other times I got those and someone else got an apex mount.
Don't fall into the trap of thinking the first couple of drops are representative of the drop rate overall, or even your own luck. There's absolutely no guarantee later crates will follow the same 'pattern'. You can get some idea of the drop rate by looking at everyone's drops, but if you're going to use a topic like this you need to bear in mind people are more likely to want to talk about good drops than bad or unremarkable ones so that can skew the data. There's also sites which track the drop rate across players.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

Same. Happy for the gems! Oh, AND for the Crown Riding lessons.
Edit to add: Missed a crate on my second acct NA - just went back to do writs on my main, opened the crate, and got junk PLUS the senche leopard mount and another riding lesson. That's the only account I did NOT have that mount on....
Then went on to the crate I missed on my third acct NA:
Definitely that's MY luck for the year!

Buuut, I did get the Brazenheart Circlet, which is also something I really wanted, so yay!!You have discovered the thirty-seventh Sermon of Vivec, which is a bending of the light, long past the chronicles of the Hortator who wore inconstant faces and ruled however they would, until apocalypse.1 -

Rikkadir✭✭✭Does it matter what level of character opens the crates?
I have a newly created Level 16 Arcanist, all others are Level 1900+
And does the lipstick look the same on them all?
Thanks

Lipsticks are always faded on vampires, and I don’t recall how they work for Argonians and Khajiit, if at all.0 -

✭✭I' ve got 10 gems (with one duplicated costume), ink face tatoo and legendary wolf pet. In first second I thought that kinda meh, but tatoo can fit my needs and wolf pet is so cute, so I'm at the end I'm even happy with that
