So event is running for entire 2 days, but drops are available only in the middle of the night in Europe? Eh sad to be on worse continent

Well to be fair...this is the same drop you had a chance at obtaining a few weeks ago after the quakecon event, and that log in time was 8 hours earlier in the day then compared to this one. So while this time may not work for you, they have offered other times in the past and I'm sure they'll offer it again if there's another event coming up soon. Hopefully there will be a time that will work for you.

question... if you already got the drops from quakecon... do you still get the crates from this stream? obviously wolf can only be awarded once, but I'd like to know if crates will be awarded again. thank you!

As said in article:
"Note that if you already received the Flame Atronach Wolf Pet during the recent QuakeCon livestream, you will only receive the Crown Crates."

So, yes.

Really hope you have something for PAX Australia... Need one of those coins for my ES collection haha

TheNightflame · August 2018

will the players get to share info on the new dlc such as new sets and what the arena is like?

Hey Gina can you pass on to the people that work on the housing to up the special collectibles total? With all the mounts pets and assistants available 10 spots just isnt enough for the vision I have for my house. You can also consider making the pets and assistants a part of the other collectible which has 100 slots. I really would love to see my vision for my house fulfilled but I lack the necessary slots. Help a dunmer out!

Oki doki, this is the article that says when the Twitch stream will be. I saw a mention of it yesterday, and couldn't find what they were talking about. Maybe post a reminder article?

I showed up to this, and had an amazing time! Checking out Murkmire was a blast, it really felt like what I've always imagined Black Marsh to be. Tall grass, lots of plants, buildings on stilts, and fierce monsters! As a long time Argonian fan, this made my day.

I also love the Summerset coin I got! It's probably my favorite Elder Scrolls related thing I own. If anyone wants a picture of what it looks like I can post one, I'm not sure if anyone has put up pics yet.

Thanks for putting on such a great event, this was definitely one of my PAX highlights and I didn't even have to pay to get in.

What did the map look like? Did it seem clockwork city sized or bigger? I honestly think the clockwork city map is misleading.

The map was bigger than the guild DLC zones (Hew's Bane and the Gold Coast) but seemed a little smaller than many base game areas. It was definitely bigger than Clockwork City in terms of overland area, but didn't seem to have as many indoor areas as the Clockwork City map does.

If I was to hazard a guess I'd say it looked to be about the size of Rivenspire, maybe a bit smaller.

The lush plants and detailed cities really made the area feel big though! It felt more immersive to me than places like the guild DLC areas because the environment was so richly detailed.

I'm glad to hear that. I figured it would be bigger than Clockwork in terms of overland. Was Lilmoth itself a large city? I always imagine it being a bigger city in Argonia than most of the Argonian cities. It seems there's no Xanmeer ruins in the city itself, contrary to the infernal city.

Lilmoth seemed pretty big to me compared to some of the base game cities, but not as big as some of the ones from Morrowind/Summerset (like Vivec City or Alinor). It might not have seemed as big though because the buildings were made of wood and many were on stilts, so there weren't a bunch of alleys and courtyards to make it seem larger.

I'd take my impression with a grain of salt though, since I didn't spend a lot of time in Lilmoth! Because my time to play the expansion was limited, I spent it trying to run through as much as the zone as I could.

I didn't notice a Xanmeer in the city, which is a bit of a bummer since I really liked The Infernal City's depiction of Lilmoth. ESO is set so much earlier than The Infernal City that I guess I can't expect the description in it to be accurate, but you'd think that something big like a Xanmeer should be there even in the Fist Era.
