Will the quests only be available on particular days? Or can the quests be done whenever?

Glaiceana

Sounds very fun and interesting! Looking forward to it!

You can do all 9 quests whenever you want, but can only complete them once daily.

An Imperial quest wouldn't really make sense as each quest takes place in an appropriate zone for that race, you can't really have a quest in cyrodiil!

SURE you can! There are already dailies in Cyrodiil. Just add another for the New Life Festival. Think of the challenges and fun sneaking into Cyrodiil! ^_^

When do those daily quests reset? Same time as undaunted pledges I guess?

Edit: Also, are there going to be bonus xps with this event?

Rixact

I was under the impression it would be a double xp event. That does not seem to be mentioned here.

Huh. I did not pay that much attention when it was on PTS. Was this the case back then? Otherwise, I would not expect it.

yodased

Is this starting at 10:00 meaning you will turn it on at 10:00 and then it will start at 11 or normal human start at 10:00.

Cause, you know.

Yes. I believe most expected it would be based off that. Some kind of keg you drank from that gave increased xp for 2 hours. Drinking again would refresh the buff.

Oh, gosh. You're all right. There is a keg that you drink from that will grant double XP. We'll get the article updated as soon as possible to reflect that (extremely important) bit of info. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!

Lol, Gina please! I love you but you can't do this to us, this is critical info! it was on the PTS so I just assumed but when I didn't see it in the news post I started getting concerned! Anyway, thanks for getting the answer to us nice and quick.

Hmm. Sounds like you could use a drink from a different keg?

@code65536 has you covered on the PTS thread:

Nine new recipes are found in the Update 12 PTS; expand the Spoiler section below to see them.

Elsonso

I never looked after Witches Festival... do the recipes and what they make extend past the event? Can I drink eye balls today and have it work?

pasmith_ESO

OK I'll be the noob... as a proud denizen of Daggerfall I have no idea where Windhelm is or how I would get there...

EP Faction, look at the EastMarch zone. Windhelm is located at the top center.

Yes and yes. The recipes no longer drop, but you can buy them from other players, use them, make stuff with them, and consume the made stuff with no problem.

#ImperialLivesMatter

Well you had to pay extra to unlock the imperial race so maybe the imperial quest is available on the crown store for 500 crowns and drops and exclusive item like a food that gives the best stats.


JK but the @Icy is right, there should be a Cyrodiil imperial quest. Kill 20 Imperials in PvP, they should drop a special item called imperial hearts that you can use to make a festive imperial eggnog for the holidays!

Recremen

Super excited for this event! Question: are there indeed dye stamps associated with the holiday, specifically the ones datamined here?




Are these hypothetical dyes dye-stamp exclusive, or will we be able to buy them for permanent unlock so that we can use the colors in the normal way we're used to dyeing items?
