How about creating a group version of vMA so that we can actually play a game that is meant to be played... with OTHER PEOPLE.
I go play Skyrim if I want to play by myself.

Reduced refine chances for gold tempers.
Double charged or powered maelstrom weps
Double not pulling pages from dailies
- Double the items received from crafting nodes in Wrothgar (this only applies to normal crafting nodes, not nodes spawned from a survey report)
- Double rewards received from the chests in Maelstrom Arena for both Normal and Veteran difficulty levels
- Double the number of reward boxes received by completing a daily delve or World Boss quest
who *** cares if its been a year since wrothgar release. and holding these events just means one thing, zos has so many players leaving, they have to hold these 100% xp boost, double drop rate ect events just to try to hold on to players.

We've seen a few questions about whether or not the double loot for the Orsinium Anniversary Event applies to survey reports in Orsinium. We checked, and they do not. We'll add a note to the article to specifically call this out.
The double items/rewards only apply to these things listed in the article about the event:
- Double the items received from crafting nodes in Wrothgar (this only applies to normal crafting nodes, not nodes spawned from a survey report)
- Double rewards received from the chests in Maelstrom Arena for both Normal and Veteran difficulty levels
- Double the number of reward boxes received by completing a daily delve or World Boss quest

*Discloser*
I've Been playing for a while now, love The game! Love vMSA, It's amazing!
Currently CP435 and Been Doing vMSA since CP389, about 40-50runs. (Iknow people have been doing it more then me with same results)
The first run was just for The achivement and The title, but then i wanted to get better at vMSA..2-3 runs.
But then i desided to go for the maelstrom daggers in the trait sharpened, haven't seen a single sharpened weapon in 40-50 runs, and I'm not that good either, so vMSA takes time... WHY!?
I felt so good about myself the first few rounds, felt very rewarded going the trial, but the second I tried to go farm the weapons, I started getting discurreged, obbsesed, and just started to dislike the game in general.
But then I went out in the world of Tamriel and asked people using maelstrom weapons, how many runs they did and when they got it, before or after "the dark brotherhood dlc"
10-10 of them got their SHARPENED maelstrom weapons Before DB dlc...
And they got them anywhere from 10-30 runs.. Now how is that fair for those (including me) who weren't that good at that point in the games development?
The least you can do eso is to give the rest of us a fighting chance, either with different chests for 2h and 1h weapons or the token system, or something else.
I have given up on vMSA
until something permanently changes! Plz listen to the community.
Save maelstrom!

Players leaving? Let's look at Steamstats for ESO (a small fraction of the playerbase, but let's take it as representative of the rest):
Now, that can all be a little confusing or not very clear, so let's put it in graph form:
I think that clearly shows the trend ESO follows. Playerbase spikes after each DLC (every quarter or so) and then drops down only to spike again. But note two things:
- The line of best fit has a positive gradient, ESO is growing on Steamstats and likely growing overall.
- The "high" point in ~July 2015 is not far from the "low" point of July 2016, this also indicates growth.
Heck, even without all this, you only need to look in-game to see for yourself. The game is busier and better than ever. The events are just another great addition to the game.
