Buy Keeps in Cyrodil

Sometimes its frustrating that I have to go through the work of taking a keep manually. Why cant they sell a claim keep crate in the crown store?

You could even scale it too. Say 500 crowns and everyone in the keep dies and your faction claims it automatically. 1500 for a pack of 5 crates and 5000 buys the whole map.

I know some would call this pay to win. But I disagree. Claiming keeps is something you can do through normal gameplay. This would just be a convenience for those who would like to skip the runaround.

    4 EP nightblades running around glade, then all of a sudden they explode because someone bought a claim keep crate from the crown store.

    so instead of working to take a keep we go to crown store and BUY them?
    and while fighting a keep and we almost WIN and take it manually by fighting you at the very last second BUY the keep out from under us?

    But crates are random. Most likely you'd get Nikel.

    Fair point. Perhaps some kind of cooldown would be necessary.

    Omg!
    Ok, I really thought when I read OP post that was the dumbest thing I've seen suggested in a long time.
    The fact that they offered this really stupid idea before??? Well, greatest laugh I've had on forums in a long time!!
    Huzzah!!!!
