You aren't going to get to the end of the event and tell your playerbase "ah, sorry, you weren't dedicated enough, better luck next time". I mean I guess some people just suspend disbelief or whatever, but given that there's widespread distrust between players and ZOS on *any* topic, why add fuel to the fire? Mind you, I don't have a better idea for a fun community event, but I'm also not paid to come up with one.
I have an inventory full of daily reward coffers because I didn't want to open them until the drop of the Kindreds Concord motif is confirmed. It's a mix of Bastion Nymic daily and worldboss daily coffers. All have the same name.
To free some inventory space I'd like to open the worldboss coffers and keep the nymic coffers until the motif actually starts dropping. Is there any way to tell which coffer is from which source?

I'm very glad to see that this has been improved over the past years and we can now get ALL crafting motifs during the Celebration. but how exactly does this work? the fact that Kindred's Concord wasn't listed in the Crown Store announcement for September suggests that it's not actually obtainable in the game by standard means either, yet. Starting with the event, will these motif pages begin dropping in Bastion Nymic as the associated Achievement indicates?
It says it arrives on October 18th, 8 days after the event ends. so you can't actually get it during the event? I also noticed that any mention of the Kindred's Concord Motif was removed from the article. Why is this happening yet again, @ZOS_Kevin ? This has been a disappointment every time this event has come around in the past years. There's always a motif missing! This only adds grind to the game. We would all be very grateful if we didn't have to prolong this. We spend so much time in those activities, especially during the celebration! It's only fair that we should be able to get these rewards from day one! It's why I was so excited to see it listed in the article. This would've been a huge improvement, but now I'm just disappointed again! Being rewarded for completing a challenging activity is the the bare minimum and ZOS is continuously falling short of that! Motifs shouldn't be delayed like that. All contents of a DLC ought to be available at launch.

If I'm remembering correctly, the "Turn the Page" quest is collecting a certain number of page fragments (10 iirc). When I tested this on PTS, it took A LONG time to gather up the pages. I didn't get any from defeating monsters, but rather very rarely from harvest nodes and chests. If we're all competing for nodes/chests, it's going to be a slog just getting this accomplished on one character.
Granted, nodes should respawn faster with more players in the zone than were on PTS, but players will be competing for them nonetheless.
I do think they drop from mobs, based on what the quest giver says, but I just wasn't lucky to get any that way. However, I think if you focus on just doing the dailies for boxes and the other daily quest which requires you to go to one of the public dungeons as well as Bastion Nymic, you'll likely get the page fragments you need. Oh...and PSA to pick up that daily before doing the BN daily.
Doing this on multiple toons every day will take some dedication.
If you're on console, there is no way to see this information.
If you're on PC, you can link the item in chat and copy that link to your clipboard. Then paste that link into a text editor like Notepad, which will reveal the item ID.
IDs on PC can also be exposed via addons, though I'm not aware of any publicly-released ones that do this.

I don't remember the final details as I did that one once on the first day. However, the summary is the father was saved, but the spell Tralise had to cast in order to free him from his binds rendered her permanently blind. Which now makes sense why the community vote reward was a music box for voting for Tralise since she wouldn't be able to read the book, which was what votes for Yensa went to (also, as of close of event, it looks like the book furnishing won the popular vote).
I don't really recall what the end result was regarding any Telvanni secrets or the book from Apocrypha. Unless that was the tie-in with the Turn The Page quest, where gathering up the scattered pages (of the Apocrypha book, maybe?) and giving them to The Mouth for Yensa meant she would use them for the power of House Telvanni whereas giving them to him for Talise meant she would hide them away and keep them secret.
