Nightmare lockbox key?

I found a Nightmare Lockbox where can I buy an enchanted key? Is it rare for a level 14 character to find one? Seems like they'd be for higher levels.

What Class Are You?
And this npc lady is where?
Actually, you don't even need an npc. Open up your inventory and click the currencies tab. Next to Astral diamonds push "spend" and select "store". Then, click the "Special Items" tab and you'll see a bunch of pets, mounts, and the lockboxes.
Im worry about overpower gear coming from them
Thanks!
Maybe I need a primer on how this all works, anyone point me to an article explaining it?
Thanks!
there are 3 currencies
the standard copper/silver/gold: this is pointless pretty much and lets you buy potions, and kits that's about it, this is what you earn by playing the game normally, it is pretty much pointless later on
Astral Diamonds: this is the currency which is used to pretty much buy everything and is used in the AH.... want to earn it?
see heres the catch outside of a few things like say..... opening a lockbox that cost you real money to buy the key for.... or buying AD from other players using real money you can only get rough astral diamonds which you can refine into real astral diamonds.... up to 24,000 a day
what a wonderful mechanic oh and one other thing people who got founders get 2 mill astral and 600k depending on the pack so they jump started the economy there, just wait for the slew of F2P who then join and cant get more than 10,000 a day unless they work there *** off while founders sit with there cool 2 mill asking for 7 million for there new flaming mount (im not joking here I mean keep in mind the max you can have to start out with is 2.6 million and refine 24,000 per day and theres a dude asking for 7 million for his horse on the AH right now GEEEE I WONDER IF ANYONE WILL BUY IT?)
then there's Zen this is the stuff you buy for cash and is used from increasing your bank by 16 slots (you start with 16 slots and can only upgrade with real money) to buying a key to a random lock box to buying a new companion. This is your standard F2P MMO fare currency (ignoring the laughable low bank space everyone on vent burst out laughing when they found out... it was literally the only time iv ever seen a bank give less slots than a standard backpack in an MMO ever.... F2P or otherwise) and that's the currency system.
I think you will all agree that it is a wonderful system that in no way is simply there to crush any F2P idea of having any fun in the game what so ever.
You forgot Ardent and Celestial coins, also known as "It's okay, I'll wait a year to get my companion" currencies. >_>
tbh the 2500 tarmalune bar mount is basically the same flaming mount except the fire is blue.... and by that fact (iv seen 2 people who already have it ingame thats like what?
Just shows they have too much money or will suffer buyer's remorse from spending too much money on a bunch of pixels. IMO the Twilight Nightmare looks better than the Heavy Inferno Nightmare. Coming from STO, I think people are pretty much screwed here when it comes to lockboxes. At least the big draw is a cool looking ship that you fight with and has unique abilities. The lockbox mount is the same as the spider mount except its just a flaming horse. There is no benefit to it compared to any other Rank 3 mount. The Phoera companion seems to be the draw since it gives a unique companion that fights with you.
I don't mind paying for micro transactions when they're reasonable, and I've given other companies a fair bit of money, but these prices are insane.
Same thing has been said about Star Trek Online when it launched and guess what it just past its 3 year anniversary. Just because a company releases an MMO from a well known game and has a huge budget doesn't mean it will be successful. Just look at how SWTOR did in its first year. ESO might do well or it might not. It is still too early to say how well it will do. Besides there is very little chance that ESO will come out this year.
On average, I've gotten 1, and 90.
Word around the campfire is that the beta code is mostly finished code, so its not going to get much better.
Word around the campfire is people will believe anything on the internet. That leak was meant to make the game look bad, the guy turned down the graphics or was playing on a total HAMSTER computer and he jumped around being a dumby not doing anything to make it look bad. Why anyone would take a leakers leak as law I don't know. Anyone willing to leak beta is obviously not the kind of person you want to trust. Get a clue folks, a game cannot be judged until it is out.
The issue with that gameplay video is the same issue that happened with SWTOR, fans expecting something that was never there. Bioware fans were hyping SWTOR as the new game that would set a new standard for mmos, when Bioware themselves stated it would be a standard mmo just with added story. Then people got upset when it was exactly like Bioware said and not what they expected.
ESO will be the same way.
Sure, since it's basically Skyrim Online, fans of Skyrim will flock to it. The game will be very pleasing to those die-hard Elder Scrolls fans, but for other people it will be just another mmo with Purdy Graphics.
Meh say what you want, but that video was purposefully made to make ESO look bad. Here's some real footage: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=DlJOPoXUiko
Not all who seem to be lost want to be found.
