I thoroughly enjoyed the mild challenge and complete chaos.

I think the team needs to accept that, over the years, ESO has cultivated a playerbase that is mostly solo-orientated. As such, new releases should probably keep this in mind. Most players are either going to wanr to be able to solo stuff, or clear it with other randoms in-zone.
There of course must always be a place for organized group enjoyers, but I do not think this is it. Not entirely, anyway.

So much this. It's baffling they decided to bring back Craglorn again when obviously didn't worked before and some of us are so accustomed to play solo. Maybe they should take some notes of how World of Warcraft has embraced solo play lately while still offering challenging content for organized groups. I mean, why not? They are owned by the same company now.

Yeah we had a premade group and barely saw anyone. Definitely not any other groups (unless we saw the survivors of the groups)

The grouo event thing that appears in the middle of the parch? Went to that when it appeared and no one else was there.

As a group we struggled to take on the mobs. I have no idea how you are supposed to fight the bosses if no one else is there?

How big are the event zone groups in the group finder? Are they large groups?

Fix players not getting credit for boss fights and skirmishes! If they unfortunately died right before the boss dies or have to respawn and run ALL the way to the boss fight they will miss getting EVERYTHING. Twice now I've had to redue skirmish fights because I didn't get the loot, the relic piece, or the achievement... because it doesn't count if you were dead when the boss dies, or you were running back to the boss after spawning on pads if no one bothers to rez you!!! At this point, I'm not helping with skirmishes anymore. I'm going to hit it once, and wall sit until it's dead or help only after this is fixed. I've tried my best to kill those bosses, I DPSed my little heart out, I helped rez people during the fights, help figure out mechanics only to get a heaping [snip] of nothing out of it. I'm done.

Because of the choice to have such a tiny amount of people instanced in each district it is already difficult to get a group together to do the skirmishes. Especially since they take so bloody long to respawn back. So nope, not doing this anymore. This event is just awful. I can handle things being difficult to do unless grouped, I can't handle design choices (not able to use soul gems to rez at bosses) literally sabatoging the game.

It doesn't matter if you're grouped or not btw, if you happen to die right before the skirmish ends you don't get anything. So if you're on a squishy toon I highly recommend standing WAY back from the skirmish bosses when they're below 5%.

ZERG ZERG ZERG group up for once, it was super fun raiding and running non-stop, reminds me of the old Harrowstorm zergs.

I like the difficulty but the rewards are underwhelming, i don't feel like i have anything worthwhile to grind for.

The difficulty is too high to be done solo by casual players but this is intended to be a group focused area, if this was a super casual overland questing area, where you can easily melt everything, the entire thing would be incredibly dull.

As a PvPer, congrats ZOS. You made me really enjoy a PvE environment. I had such a blast today with a group of PvP guildies just running around, killing stuff, dying constantly, figuring out the mechanics and puzzles, it was a blast.

This is not sarcasm either. My guildies enjoyed the heck out of it when we went in expecting a boring farm for the new mythic.

Have y’all been sleeping under a rock or what’s going on?

This zone was advertised always, from the reveal in January to launch now, as a group zone.

Why are y’all surprised when it actually requires a group?

I watched the release video and must have yawned or something, because I didn't hear anything about this being a purely vet/trial type of place. If you enjoy it, I'm glad! Have fun!

In basically every piece of advertisement for the Night Market they say this or something similar:

Note that many of the event zone’s challenges were designed for groups in mind, so be prepared for a tough fight if you’re venturing into the zone solo.

You can basically go over every piece of marketing for Night Market and they always tell you it’s a zone dedicated for groups that offers group challenges.

This is probably the best "Git Gud" post I've seen on this forum in a long time. And without actually saying it.
