Awesome Holiday Witches Festival

jkemmery

I love this update. This has been great. I really hope that ZOS does stuff like this more often, because it's been fun farming the group delves and farming bosses and Plunder Skulls. I appreciate things like this. Some may have some complaints, but I just want to say thanks to ZOS for spending the time to create this. I have no problem with a Crown Store only motif to help ZOS get back some of the hours they spend developing this update for us. ESO is a great game and things like this only make it more worthwhile. I know for sure I will continue with my ESO Plus, because this is a great, and relatively inexpensive form of entertainment. No complaints from me. Thanks again, ZOS.

It's awesome, the XP just gives you options to sort those Alts you've been thinking of, and the Skull 'Pokémon' craze is a buzz lol

Love the Imp City event too, gets people doing content they haven't done for a while.

I've found myself joining any and all dungeon run groups I can. With all of the new and updated sets, and the plunder skulls, there's something I want from every dungeon.

Loot....my only weakness!

How are the Plunder Sculls drop rate?? and also the loot that they drop when you finally get one? I was reading that there is a holiday motif with this festival (but was wondering if it would ever drop before the end of Oct).

I was completing the start quest last night and had a hard time trying to find "essence of death).. actually, it still hasn't dropped from any Delve Bosses yet.. Maybe i'll have better luck tonight?

"Skulls" (stupid auto-correct)

Make sure you're in a regular delve. The Essence of Death apparently doesn't drop from public dungeons or group dungeons.

The drop rate of the skulls is 100% except that there's a 3-5 minute cooldown between drops. So if you kill a boss in a public dungeon and then run immediately to the next boss and kill it, you're not likely to get another skull. Some people have reported faster repeat drops, and some have reported not getting anything when they should have, so mileage may vary.

The motif (and recipe) drops are pretty consistent. It's the two costume hats that seem to be hard to get. Most people get a full motif set within a few hours of dedicated farming, quicker if you trade duplicate pages for the ones you need.

No doubting that this event coupled with one tammy is a winner. People are in every nook and cranny of the game and all seem to be having a blast.

I see more events in our future.

I also love the event and the simple straight forward design. I don't agree with those opinions about the more complex design of other MMOs' events . I feel those are tiresome and feel as a second job.

And btw I don't like the crown store exclusivity of the GH motif...!
