ESO Free Crowns

It is possible to get crowns for free in Elder Scrolls Online and those methods are what this section will attempt at showing to the reader.

When a player level up the player is awarded Free Crown Crates at a particular interval. When the player opens these free crates it leads to the player getting some high tier items and the deconstruction of these items will result in the player getting ESO Free Crown Gems.

One of the most common methods used to get ESO Free Crowns is to exchange in-game gold for Crowns.

Gold is free in-game currency while Crowns cost the player real-world money. However, buying Crowns using gold does not mean a player is able to buy the Crown directly using Gold. It means that the player will be able to buy ESO crown store Items from other players who are reliable in exchange for gold. 

How does this work? It’s fairly simple. The player gives the gold that they have acquired to another player who is reliable and in return, the latter buys the Crown Store item of the former and gifts it to them.

There is a crown exchange rate within the game community. This is the cost of gold needed for a single crown. Currently, the crown exchange rate is 1200:1 which means that for every crown Gem the player will have to give 1200 gold in return.

A Player should be careful while exchanging gold for the crown as it should only be done with a reliable player as there is a chance someone could try to scam the player. One should note not to buy Crown using Zone chats or from players who are offering these crowns at an unbelievably low rate.

It is always advised to buy crowns through a guild or discord servers dedicated to crown exchanges such as World Crown Exchange Or Tamriel Crown Exchange.
