    Hmm....what do you mean in the title by "Drops"? Is that referring to harvest nodes? Also, would love a doubling of Tel Var :)

    Any chance of fixing the game rather than trying to pacify us with yet another event?
    Praise Vivec! You were there to stop Alexandra Conele from capturing the coral heart!

    Guess I won't have to wait until October for the next Double XP event to do all of the Master Writs I've collected since the last event.

    Double EXP does not appear to be working in BRP or skyreach, can you confirm that it is or is not supposed to affect these instances? I know a ton of us would really like to grind that CP up for the upcoming patch...

    Just for clarification:

    There are no event tickets during this event ?

    Edit:
    "Note that the Explorer’s Celebration doesn’t grant Event Tickets and doesn’t have its own unique quests, Achievements, or collectibles associated with it. Additionally, the Impresario isn’t available during this limited period. "

    It seems there are none, ok. And tbh I like it more. No feeling that I HAVE to login and I HAVE TO do "work" each day ;)

    This event is really great. Double XP really works!

    However, it would be awesome to see an active buff on the character sheet.
    Yet, you can see it in the experience numbers and how fast your skills are leveling.

    Overall:
    8/10 for the event.
    9/10 if active buff was added.


    Thanks again for the event,

    Dear Community/Followers,

    I want to address recent concerns regarding allegations of inappropriate direct messages and supposed cheating. First and foremost, I want to clarify that I do not admit to any wrongdoing. However, I understand that my actions may have been perceived in a way that caused concern.

    As many of you know, I am a disabled veteran who served in Iraq, and I am permanently and totally mentally disabled. My PTSD, which was formally diagnosed in 2013 after being reclassified in the DSM-5, has affected me in ways that are difficult to fully explain. While this is not an excuse, it has, at times, clouded my judgment and impacted my behavior. This condition is something I have lived with for a long time, and it is a daily challenge.

    As an influencer, streamer, and game reviewer with over 300 reviews, 800 followers on Twitch, and 1,600 followers on TikTok, I understand the responsibility that comes with my platform. Our role as influencers is to set a positive example, and I want to make it clear that I do not condone actions that go against the Terms of Service (TOS) or End User License Agreements (EULA) of any platform or community. Even though societal norms have evolved, and what was once deemed acceptable behavior in the past is no longer appropriate, I am committed to adapting and ensuring that my actions reflect the values we strive for today.

    I want to go forward with a commitment to better representing the disabled members of our community. I recognize that I may never fully "fit in" or be "normal," but I am dedicated to improving and learning from these experiences. It is crucial that we have more flexibility and better support services for disabled veterans like myself, so we can remain active members of our communities without being unfairly limited by our disabilities. These services would help ensure that we can make better decisions and avoid situations like this in the future.

    Thank you for your understanding, and I am grateful for the continued support of this community as I work to become a better version of myself.

    Sincerely,
    theshockcable

    Gotta ask because it is normally mentioned: Does the increased drops apply to drops from completing crafting surveys?

    Not a bad event, but it feels a bit repetitive to me. Double gold, double nodes, double XP/AP, and this is it, in one zone (DLC/chapter event) or in all zones. What about double damage event? What about double healing received event? What about "astrologers proclaim week of Mehrunes Dagon, all player character fire based attacks have 100% burning chance"? PvP excluded, but PvP is already excluded with XP and PvE is already excluded with AP, so nothing new here. After all, what about double quadruple lead / furnishing plan / painting chance to get from all sources event?

    My Dunmer MagDK perks up. :smiley:

    It is a bit repetitive, but at least this one was planned, as opposed to "Oops, it's a bug that we can't fix just yet, so here, have an event until the fix is in" like the last explorer's event was.

    Ooooh! I'd love an event like that! Something different and quirky! That's what BethSoft used to be known for. I can actually picture all the dk's talking over 🤔🤣

    I love these!

    How about a "bait and bugs" event where there are double guts, insect parts, spider eggs, and increased chances for weird things to drop from unusual (but slightly justifiable) places:
    -an "inert egg" from one of those little snakes that you see in zone OR one of the random big spiders
    -a "second skin" from any snake-monster or critter
    -a "multifaceted eye" from any insect monster (Craglorn wasps, I'm looking at you)
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis
