My thoughts on the Mysterious Box Event

I've been leveling, playing and discovering new alters, new builds and ways to play the game, motivated by this event

That's one of them proverbial double-edged swords.

Personally I found myself hating having to play those alts. I had picked up Morrowind on sale and decided to delete just 1 character and use my last two free slots to make 3 wardens. But I hated having to play the other classes so much that I ended up deleting half a dozen.

If I'm going to have to play alts seriously through dungeon content even occasionally then most of them need to be my main prof.

Shells? Pfaw!

I found it interesting to play through those dungeons, which I'd largely ignored, but by the end of the event I had several alts clogged up with lots of partial sets and I ended up just deconning all but 1 or 2 them.

What I learned from the event is that there's zero appeal for me in running dungeons repeatedly hoping rng gives me sets in styles I may not like and which have some minor stat difference. I'll craft myself gear in the styles I like with whatever stats are available from crafting and call it a day. Run the dungeons once to get the skill point and achievements (if any).
