Daily Seals of Endeavor 200? Bug or intended

ElderSmitter · April 15

I just got 200 Seals of endeavor from Pick Pocketing 6 Items... Why so much? Is that intended or did ZOS mess up one of the daily Seals today? Just wanna mention it JUST IN CASE lol!!

cause the rest are only 10 per and if someone did not notice that or get it by accident that would d be sad...

Great Thank You!

My best guess is that it is a way to promote the The Thieves Guild Anniversary, which started this monday and lasts 2 weeks.

Part of the anniversary is that if you pick, or already have picked, at least 1 pocket, you get to claim the Thieves Guild DLC for free from the crown store. (and once you have the DLC, you can earn a free horse).

I suppose lots of people will get the required achievement now, even if they didn't know about this.

Can you get locked out of the 200 seals if you do three other daily endeavors first?

Probably? I didn't try though.

Yes, its complete 3 as usual

I didn't see this in time. Got three others completed automatically. A bit annoyed by this. The amounts have never been different for the daily endeavors.

davidtk · April 15

They literally say that...
Even better, the rewards for these thematic Endeavors will be increased—keep an eye out for them!

I always look at the endeavors and it was the one at the top and i was in Alinor, so i quickly knocked out 6 pick pockets or i may not have gotten it either. It was the top Endeavor. I did not even notice it was 200 seals until it flashed across my screen after completing it which is why I had to look to see if it was a weekly lol that I did in record time.

ZOS_GinaBruno · April 15

Just to confirm, this is intended! Have fun with your pocket picking. Just keep it in-game

Tallon_IV · April 15

Dammit, didn't even notice the amount before doing the other 3 endeavors. Can't get it now.

CoronHR · April 15

yeah i lucked out and did pickpocketing randomly, didn't even know it gave this much. now i'll be forever watching to see how many endeavours each task gives

Enodoc · April 15

This is a bit unfortunate for anyone who doesn't notice and/or completes the other three first by accident.

LanteanPegasus · April 15

Oh, wow, this is really cool.

I have to admit, I didn't realize it myself. Planned to do the pickpocketing anyway, so logged over to my Khajiit, read the forum while the character loaded, and found this thread. Looked at the endeavours again, and feel lucky now.

If I had missed it that would've been on me, though, because yes, ZOS told us to look out for thievey endeavours this and next week. So - thank you, ZOS! This is a very nice idea to make a Thieves Guild themed event interesting for people like me, who don't actually do Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood stuff.

ElderSmitter · April 15

Just grabbed the Free Mount from the Crown Store too! Don't Forget If you had already completed the Achievements, it will be there saying FREE!

Danikat · April 15

I got it pretty much by chance too. I hadn't noticed the reward and never thought to check if one gave more seals, because that's never happened before. I was debating between pickpocketing or the poison 25 foes one and it's just luck I picked this one. It was only after that I saw the news article.

Carcamongus · April 15

Good grief, I read the Thieves Guild page and still managed to miss the bit about endeavors. If not for this thread I'd have most likely skipped the pickpocketing, as I hate it. Not to mention being such an incompetent thief I manage to fail 100% hits.

syberfut · April 16

Oh dangit.. I got ninja'd into helping someone and I ended up burning 3 other endevors right at reset... not cool

katanagirl1 · April 16

Wow, I didn’t notice that. Awesome!

davidtk · April 16

And next endeavors are:

Complete 1 Heist (60 Seals of Endeavor)
Complete 1 Public Dungeon Group Event (10 Seals of Endeavor)
Earn 10000 Alliance Points (10 Seals of Endeavor)
Kill 10 Citizens with the Blade of Woe (100 Seals of Endeavor)
Refine Raw Materials 5 Times (10 Seals of Endeavor)

(Using dwemer automaton bot on the Discord server)

ChaoticWings3 · April 16

I was surprised by this too. But honestly makes the game really fun to play during the event period.

Kind of wish similar things would happen during other events like during mayhem certain pvp related endeavors had an increased amount during the event period. It gives everyone an extra incentive to participate in the event.

davidtk · April 16

Yes I agree, I am surprised that they make themed endeavors and wish they will continue.
When I read the news I didnt' expect yesterdays 200 endeavors lol.
But I first check the discord for endeavors what I will do that day.

Hapexamendios · April 16

I didn't really pay attention to how many seals it was. I saw it on the dwemer automaton and thought the bot was glitched.

Long as completing those increased endeavors doesn't get locked out by accidentally completing other three before them.

CrazyKitty · April 16

If you do the kill 10 citizens with blade of Woe daily endeavor today you get a bonus 100 endeavors....just so ya'll know.

fizl101 · April 16

And a heist is 50 today

If you do all three endeavors before the pick pocketing endeavor you WILL NOT get the 200 bonus endeavors. I tried it.

So, if in the future for this event, make sure you do the thieves guild or dark brotherhood endeavors first and hope for a surprise bonus.

FrancisCrawford · April 16

Oh, great. That's the endeavor I missed because I was going to log on later and the server was down.

Shara_Wynn · April 16

I missed out on the 200 seals of endeavors for pick pocketing 6 items because I do my endeavors early morning EU time and for some unknown reason, these special endeavors where not updated at the same time as the rest of Monday's seals. At the time I did them you only got 15 seals for pickpocketing the 6 items.

Did any of the players in the oceanic time zones get the chance to do any of these extra special seals?
