Please add new achievements to holiday events each year.

It gives us something to do and seeing that this years witches festival didn't have any new achievements is disappointing. New life is going to be as equally disappointing as there is no way I am doing any of those quests again if there is no new achievements to go for. No amount of new momentos or reskins will make me want to do those dailys again and its better to wiat for them to drop to 500 gold as they always do... TLDR: new achievements please

Simple ones like:
place a holiday funishing in your home,etc
doesn't require to much effort but atleast gives us something to do

Please yes! Also I was disappointed to discover the witches cauldron furnishing plan I found appears to be exactly the same as the wood elf cauldron I've had for ages. woot.

Please yes! I tried to do the witches festival again this year but with nothing really all that new other than the masks and furniture items (that so far for me have been not really dropping all that much), all in all, I've been discouraged with the event. I've ended up getting bored with witches' festival and decided to go trick or treating at that other MMO that has flying and you go tricker treating all over the world to get tricky treats that you can use as tokens and actually buy in game what you really want instead of hoping it will magically drop for you. IMHO, a token system is so much better than RNG mob drops.. I wish ESO would have utilized that system and done more with the event. It would have probably kept my from straying back over to that other MMO's halloween event.

Yeah, even if its just one more achievement, at least SOMETHING new would be appreciated!

reskins were a theme this year

Reskins? As in the masks?
Is that why they come in a V.2 box?

I couldn't play last year because of computer reasons - but to be honest I have been bored to tears with the event. I think by the end of today I should have all the skulls I need, than I can buy the cottage that I really want - the upish side is that clockwork city will be on monday and there will be new stuff to do.
The witchs wrapped body I saw in the crown store (didn't buy it - but saw it) and yes the cauldron is the wood elf one.

More achievements every year? Naw.

Its quite enough to do the event with different alts each year, or to hunt the new drops, and sell any you already have in guild stores, or save them just in case you want a present for a friend someday...

If anything they ought to expand the achievements of one event that is not measuring up to the others in terms of what is achievable. You know which one I am talking about (and if not, just compare the achievement lists...)

For people who didn't participate in last year's festival, this year...

• There are 4 masks to collect, instead of 2. The drop rate is still ***. I've looted about 100 skulls so far, and still haven't received a mask, new or old. (In contrast, the collectible drop rate for the New Life Festival was much more reasonable.)
• There are new furnishing plans for the completionist to collect. In the 100 or skulls that I've gotten, I received just one.
• This year's festival is a whole week shorter.
• The loot table is polluted by dead twigs. These items were already dropping and circulating before the festival, so they're not new items. They're items that most of us don't want (since they're all dead and not exactly pleasing to the eye), and it feels like a third or more of my skulls contain this ***.

The festival is already too *** grindy. Instead of something to enjoy, the drop rates and shortened duration mean that people feel compelled to farm the festival if they want to complete the collectibles.

And on top of that, you want new achievements? Yes, I'm sure that new players who are already faced with the daunting task of "catching up" would just love that.

That's part of the point. There won't be enough time for people to do them all. Besides, who wants to be faced with some holiday achievement list that consists of 4-5 achievements that have been added annually to add busy work.

New quests and achievements would be very welcome rather than trotting out exactly the same event.

cmetzger93

I would have liked some new achievements and new drops with a token system. That would have been amazing.

Cpt_Teemo

As long as they keep old ones still obtainable i'm sure no one would mind

Easy, you don't need to tie a reward to them! also as I said, they always have next year
