I haven't seen any of the stuff from it. Would any of you be willing to post screenshots of the mount, illusion, and some of the hero's forge gear? thanks
Sure, I picked the mount up for 1 mil. plat on Vox the other day. I just uploaded to them to my new EQ flicker, can't figure out how to link the photos, I think my images might be too big? Feel free to take and submit to a site like FanByte or repost if you know how to link. https://flic.kr/s/aHsmGsknhs
It's not the most straightforward process: https://help.flickr.com/en_us/get-the-url-of-a-flickr-photo-S1Hnnmjym Small (240 x 109):
Spent 200 bones this weekend and couldn’t get the illusion. Scored a mount. The color on it is nice. Gave it to my gf not gf.
How many crates total? My luck has been similar with crates in general, out of ~85 crates opened over time (across all crates) I’ve gotten 5 mounts (2 from Iksar crate, 2 from Northman, 1 from half-elf), and just one illusion (Northman’s ice giant). So if I ranked items on rarity I’d guess: Very Rare: Illusion Rare: Mount Uncommon: Decorative Teleport clickies (although I had better luck with these in dark elf crate) Somewhat uncommon: Music Box (might vary by crate) Common/less common: Familiars Most common: Heroes Forge suites
RNG is insane. I've received 1 Halasian Battle Bear and 1 Guise of the Gilded Gnomework over 6 crates (monthly claim). (Not bragging; just saying how variable it can be).
No mention of that in the announcement they put out a few days ago (still no clue why this type of stuff doesn't make the forums . . . I just noticed it because I was trying to get into account management for half a day): https://www.everquest.com/news/eq-double-xp-promo-sept-2019 But that's not all! From 12:00 PM PT on Friday, August 30, 2019 until 12:00 PM PT on Tuesday, September 3, 2019, ALL players on ALL servers will receive double XP! Go forth and continue adventuring in Norrath!
Homestly, I get 3x the familiars than I do armor sets, and they’re by far the most useless thing. I’d be stoked if they’d make familiars a heck of a lot rarer.
Looks like they were originally going to have a 20% discount but they removed it in the last patch. https://spells.eqresource.com/dbstrhistory.php?mdy=08212019 D: 5051^31 You'll earn double experience during Labor Day weekend.

Wow that is some really good luck!!! Looking back, my luck what somewhat similar for the Northman crate, was maybe closer to 1 rare in 4 or 1 rare in 5. But I totally struck out on the gnomish crate, no rares out of ~15. I’m a little bummed there isn’t a discount weekend, was hoping I’d be able to pickup the 5 relisted illusions a little cheaper, but I can’t really complain now that the expansion sale is going on, I will be saving big there! Back on topic, does anyone have screens of the current crate’s teleport clickies?
They've been basically dumping all marketplace discount bonuses this year that were in previous years
I don’t agree, if you list it out DBG has still been pretty generous over the past 12 months, just different timing and promotions. Fall 2018 sale: 25% offs Winter Sale: Lifetime & Year + Bonus membership sales New Year Sale: 40% off Feb: Potion sales Memorial Day- 20% off Over this summer: -3 free rabbit familiars, unlimited per char. -2 free murkglider familiars for members, per char -~ 50% discounted heritage crates from the vault Current sale: Expansions 50% off, same as last year but offered a few weeks earlier this year. Back to my question, does anyone have screens of the new teleport decorations, preferably placed? Thank you!
Why can't music box from crates loop their song? Makes no sense. I can't chill in Halas while my DE mage's pet kills everything that walks up while I play the song from the Inn there were the reference was in the crate music box reward.
