@ZOS_Kevin

Powering down the console hasn't worked for me. Plug out of the wall to make sure.

Xbox Series X

Orsinium not owned on any accounts.

@HedgeHugger One more troubleshooting measure if you're comfortable doing so. Could you try deleting the ESO save data on your console? Link here for instructions.

This will removed any cached data, like brightness settings and such. We're checking to see if the cache needs to be wiped for the Orsinium change to take.

Oh, I have Hexos' Ward on my stam characters at CP level, so that shield is actually a bonus. However, I've got 30+ levels to get on my arcanists before giving that a try. Though.... hmmm. I don't really remember when I actually tried Urfon last - it might have been before U35 (which was when I reconfigured my gear to include Hexos' Ward and Oakensoul).

So I guess I'll give it a shot on my highest CP warden first (1105 or something - I don't pay that much attention because by this time there's not much to put CP into). They really ought to come up with some more options for CP....

I'm curious. Is this boss solo only? Or can a group come and help?

Unless things have changed, it's solo only - a friend was going to help me, got to the same place in the quest line, and when we went through the door, she was in her own instance. [Well, you have "useless Kurog" along - y'know, like you have "useless Emeric" etc in High Isle....]

Ah....I'm sorry TaSheen.

I was going to see if I could help you kill him.

@ZOS_Kevin
Clearing the cache worked.
When I had to relog in it synced with the online save and everything is as it should be.
An easy fix

Thank You!

What happens if we've already completed the Orsinium main story line, and already earned the Kingmaker and Defender of Orsinium achievements? Will we receive the bonuses upon logging-in for the first time after the update has been deployed?

Yes, you will receive the bonuses. You just need to claim them. That will start on March 4.

Well, thanks for the thought anyway! Kind of you and too bad it doesn't seem possible. But I'll give it a shot on my "main main" in a day or so and see how it goes!

I don't have ESO+, but I've already long since purchased Orsinium and completed the story.

This has not worked for me on the PS4. Not happy about repeatedly trying suggestions that change nothing

HedgeHugger · March 2

This solution doesn't solve today's issue.

This is the official discussion thread for, "Get Ready For The 10th Anniversary Celebration By Claiming Orsinium (And More) For Free!"

"The 10th Anniversary Celebration Event is kicking off this April, but we’re getting the fun started early by giving you the Orsinium DLC (and more) free during the month of March!"
For more info on the March Daily Login Rewards, follow the link here for the article and the link here for the discussion thread.

Note- We will move this thread to the News & Website Article Discussion section on March 9.

Two Questions: 1st, will the daily login be bugged or give any sort of difficulty for me if i already have previously purchased Orsinuim DLC?

Second: Will this impact future purchases of the Guilds and Glory DLC pack? (side note: might want to have the crown team look at that bundle with IC being free and this generous giveaway you might want to consider restructuring that bundle)

When the Murkmire DLC was a daily reward in November 2018, it was still possible to claim it after you had purchased it in the Crown Store. The Daily Reward calendar will progress as normal if you claim the reward and you will not be gaining any advantage or disadvantage if you already own the Orsinium DLC, the Craglorn Welwa pet or the Iron Orc Welwa mount.

Regarding the Guilds and Glory DLC pack, its original price of 5500 Crowns was permanently reduced to 4000 after Imperial City was made free for everyone, so I highly doubt it would be further reduced because the Daily Rewards. Mainly because there can still be new accounts popping up after March ends.

Ya I know but there was a reason I asked in advanced, and sadly it was and is bugged. I hope it gets fixed soon.

They just "gave" us the Orsinium DLC as the Day 2 reward. How is this a big deal?

And many of us already had it!

@ZOS_Kevin : powering off and on and relogging fixed it for me

Ah the tried and true turn off/ turn on method. Thank you for testing that and confirming. We are still testing things on our end, but this is helpful.

An ironic application of "Have you tried turning it off and on again! (See the TV Show _The IT Crowd_ for the use of that phrase.)
