Hello everyone,
I'm just wondering if anyone has information on when the Orsinium Anniversary event is on this year.
Thanks

    In this article Orsinium event isn't mentioned: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/58775
    So, no Orsinium 2020. But there are some things in datamine thread that point to Orsinium event in the future, maybe next year

    I think we all did as we have to refarm the VMA weapons.
    I'm gonna have to begin farming VMA before Markath releases for sticker book.

    I personally don't like timed events in any game as I am a completionist and locking me out of content really is disheartening. Today I was just looking through the collectable stuff I have missed as I have had a few years break. Some of this stuff I may never be able to get as the events may not happen again or I may not be able to play them when they do.
    As content keeps releasing there are more events that will or could happen which means less events from previous content.
    Maybe in the future they will do a massive event like for eg, orsinuim, clockwork and murkmire in one go so we have multiple things to do. I doubt it but it would be nice.

    I watch your vids sometimes, normally when I need advice. Like a few days ago for how to do a root wisper daily in murkmire because the quest marker is a mess.
    Keep up the good work.

    Ima bet that is why we are not getting an Orsinium event. You know exactly what kind of move it was for ZOS to essentially downgrade all our hard earned VMA weapons and make us farm them again. You didn't think they were going to let us do it at double speed did you?
    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    ikr.
    Well I am late to the party, I assume everyone would have farmed their weapons again by now so my plan is to get 4-5 alts on the leaderboard this week, 2 days left so double drops regardless. I need winterborn too anyway.

    With the reconstruction system coming, I doubt ZOS wants people to have all of them in any trait after a single week of farming.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the stickerbook only pertain to 5-pc sets, not single ability altering items, like BRP/MA weapons? Wouldn't that completely eradicate farming those arenas altogether if you only need one perfected vMA inferno and you can make countless duplicates of it?

    Arena weapons are also included.

    All collected sets are included. So for eg when you have a 9 trait crafter and a heavy, med and light head and shoulder of a monster set you will never need to collect one again or spend a key again. Same goes for arenas.
    This system is great and well needed but it is going to ultimately destroy so many things.
    Pledges, transmutation, gear farming, less players in dungeons, less players in trials, more players it vet HM end game trials for perfected loot, solo arena will become a novelty rather than a necessity.
    Obviously all this won't happen overnight.
    Initially there is going to be a massive surge of players in every dungeon and trial hunting for all gear as well as increasing the cost of even the most trash trait trash gear.

    Maybe. It's hard to underestimate how much of that gear gets deconstructed or vendor sold right now, especially if it's not CP160. There will be increased demand, but also increased supply.

    Wouldn't running content for fun and not for farm create a healthier atmosphere? Also there are still motifs or ZOS may come up with some new nice rewards.

    I’ve been farming for the BSW inferno staff for six years. I won’t stop until I get it. I’ve only wanted one, so I would have stopped at that point anyway and never entered the City of Ash again since I already have multiples of EVERY OTHER PIECE from that place 🤪

    Darn. I haven’t run VMA since the changes because 1) I don’t enjoy it as content; and 2) I was put off by the change, which made my previously top tier weapons be demoted to normal versions.

    I refused to set foot back in that place until there are double drops to make it worth my while. Looks like that’s not gonna happen.

    For a clue as to which events might be prepared for early 2021, I looked at the Events part of the Help section on the PTS. Most event descriptions say Indrik feathers will be offered, which implies the text hasn't been updated for 2021 yet. If memory serves, Orsinium was not an exception.

    What WAS an exception was a "Tribunal" event, combining Clockwork City and Vvardenfell, with one event ticket per day from daily quests in each zone. Unfortunately, it did not seem to have generic double drops from bosses, and hence no acceleration in getting trial gear.

    Similarly, there's no assurance that there will EVER been an event in the future that offers Maelstrom Arena double drops, even though it's obvious that there SHOULD be one.

    Oh, so they decided to join events like they did with TG/DB. I've been wondering what would they do when there's no more place on the calendar

    I managed to get a Perfected False Gods Inferno the other day, a birthday present from a guildmate, so I'm thrilled with this next patch
