No double drops from clams either. So lame ZOS!

@ZOS_GinaBruno any chance we could get a comment on why the drops on this event are not similar to other DLC zone events?

Secondly, each Indrik morph is available for the entire quarter, not just a single event, so there will be a minimum of three events during that quarter to earn tickets.

Where did you get that? Summerset event, just like two last MYM events, provides 2 berries. That means there will be at most 2 more events this quarter to get two other berries (and a pet). It is entirely possible that there will be only one another event this quarter that will also provide 2 berries.

I'm not digging through 18-month old posts to find a ZOS quote, but basically they give you enough tickets each quarter to purchase all four berries and I believe enough to buy all four feathers of the base-model Indrik. The pet.... that's where your priorities come into play. If you really want the pet then you may have to hold off on buying the last nascent indrik feather until the next quarter (you can still buy the berries and morph later).

ZOS made it clear that these events weren't supposed to provide enough tickets to get every. single. item. for sale from the ticket merchant; some sacrifices would have to be made, but they also wanted to provide something for those players who don't have interest in whatever morph is being offered in a particular quarter.

No one is talking about every single item from the merchant (or cares, to tell the truth). Most items (style pages, furnishings, etc.) can be obtained from other sources. Still I don't remember a quarter where there were not enough tickets to get ticket merchant exclusive items (4 feathers, 4 berries, pet).
So it is possible, that there will be more tickets later, but for now this half-quarter event has 1 ticket less than half-indrik.

Earlier events had only two tickets. Three is already more than it used to be. Some had five due to problems beforehand.

I want the Mossheart indrik!
Lemme get this straight:
1. So I have to buy 4 feathers @ 10 tickets each (40)
2. Then, 2current available berries @10 ea (20)
3. Then I have to wait until the next 'event' to buy 2 UNAVAILABLE berries? ( guessing 20)

So I need 80 tickets?

I am so done with Indrik. Chasing berry after berry for the same exact mount in a different color? Come on ZOS, it's been over a year. Can't we move on to something else yet?

Yes, that is the sum of it.

80 total, yes, but I'd suggest following order:
1. Buy 2 berries
2. Buy any ticket stuff that's unavailable otherwise
3. If any tickets left, buy feathers
4. Next event do the same - berries first, then other limited stuff you liked, then feathers

Feathers are available each event, but berries are limited to a single event (and maybe New Life Festival, if ZOS is kind)

@ZOS_GinaBruno A big THANK YOU to ZOS and all the people who made the Summerset Event so great! Had a wonderful time, completed stuff that I had pretty much given up on and met some new people!

THANK YOU!
