Huh, in my job I have to work Bank Holidays, which sucks.

NyassaV

Is so shooooooorrrrttttttt

Why only 4 days holiday? Seems way too short.

WhiteCoatSyndrome

Just FYI I'm going to be /bugging it for showing up near the real-world April Fool's Day instead of the actual lore holiday of April 28th.

So we'll only have four chances to get Princess without alerting the butcher (per character), which means if we mess up all four times, that'll be it, and we won't be able to get the Royal Jester title for that character?
And that's if we're actually able to play for all four days. The only way such a short time frame would work if if you could do the three quests multiple times per day on the same character.

If you mess up at any point, you can always abandon the quest and pick it up again.

maybe it is a April fools joke? and it longer?

I was not really that bothered by the festival last year. However the anniversary one was awesome and the double xp one was great. I really hope they don’t shorten the times on them.

Semi-agree. This timing sucks for weekend workers like myself though. 7 days would have suited better for sure.

But I agree... the anniversary one was easily the best they've had. It could have lasted a month for me and I doubt I'd have been bored lol. It actually revitalized a number of social guilds I was in too - and I'm hoping it will do the same this year around!!

why are there NO cooking recipes listed in the reward listing????

Does anyone know exactly what achievements there are?

Sorry i missed the whole festival last year lol...

And does the DCT only drop in the loot crates from the event?

Might be short as some think the anniversary event starts after as wasn't pc release 4th of April

I haven't memorized the answer to that, but:

• The "Royal Jester" title requires memorizing a recipe for Dubious Camoran Throne.
• The "Lord/Lady of Misrule" title does NOT require that.

I’m kinda relief the event is shorter this year. Event is fun and prizes are addicting, but doing same quests every day for two weeks gets exhausting for me.

the pie and ambroisa will still stack this year right @ZOS_GinaBruno

Is the Dubious Camoran Throne recipe for sure going to be a drop during this years event? The article was not clear.

"A host of fun consumables"

It should, since completing the achievements for the festival require it.

Dont worry, on April 1st they are going to say "April Fools! We are extending the festival until the 10th!" Just watch and see.

Or they say April Fools, the event is already over.

Lazy_Voyager

This event is gonna be shorter than the delay between chat bugs. Great.

Welp. Maybe I'll find Dubious on a guild trader for 400k.

Maryanne

When do the daily quests reset?

Lazy_Voyager

Nevermind

No matter which character I log onto, it tells me I have already completed this quest.

Did you already complete the quest last year? If so, you don't need to do it again.

vamp_emily

Is my monkey in the crown store waiting on me?

Zeni please make more monkeys I want different colored ones.

Lantian_Doco

Would love to play it but cant due to login issues

Still no fireworks memento.

More than that, though, I really, really hope ZOS fixed the Ebonheart quest so you don't have to glitch the clipping of the cart in order to avoid a bounty. That one piece of bad design really damaged what was otherwise a great event last year.

Aaaaaaaaand they did not.

Two things:

Okay, I am confused. On two of my toons I am told I can't activate the quest because I already did the quest. But how am I supposed to find the NPCs to do the dailies then? Would really like to get the new achievements and related stuff. How to proceed???

Next up:

For the love of the Divines, for most people we're going to be busy with either Easter or Passover or in the case of my family, BOTH. I work tomorrow and then get on the road, and not returning to civilization and my gaming rig until late Sunday, and then back to work Monday. Please extend the event!!

Can't help you with #2, but for #1: Look for the icon that looks a bit like a calendar in Auridon (Vulkel Guard), Glenumbra (Daggerfall) and Stonefalls (Ebonheart). They haven't moved from last year.
