Wait, berry *fragments*?!

The title says “fragments” but they are whole berries, 4 whole berries. Not fragments of berries.

Got confused for a second there. Fragmented berries would be worse, don’t give them ideas.

Lol, sorry. ZOS referred to them as "Upgrade Fragments (called Indrik Berries)" so I kinda threw those terms in the blender and hit pulse. Berry fragment smoothie, anyone?

Could the event ticket cap be removed, now? So we can collect enough event tickets to buy the berries we want and we get to actually chose in which events we participate and which we can ignore?

Let's be honest - if ZOS gave the mounts away as a 'login reward', the usual few people would complain about the 'grind of having to log in' to claim them...

.... so how many years for the collectors with no money(crowns) to get there ?

Is it time to stop doing events ?

It depends on how many tickets future events give. So far we've had a minimum of 1 ticket per day and a maximum of 3, which means it would take between 120 and 360 event days to get all the indriks.

How long it will be in real time is difficult to say. There isn't an event every single day, and people will miss days for various reasons. But it sounds like ZOS expects at least some people to be able to do it by the end of 2019.

Up to now the events gave up to 80 tickets, if math didn't fail me (16 during the witches festival with flawless 20 hours cycle, 22 during the CWC event, 21 during the undauntend event and also during the new life festival), so in theory right now we could have a nascent indrik and the feathers to summon another one.
Realistically I think there's people with the indrik, 3 feathers and about 5 tickets (I currently have the indrik, 1 feather and 12 tickets).
If we get the same number of tickets each quarter of 2019 it should be possible to have all the indrik versions by the end of the year, with careful management of the tickets, without spending a crown.

Math checks out. I have the Indrik, 3 feathers, and 12 tickets. Technically there were 18 tickets possible for the witches event, but you would have had to get the first ticket at the 00:00:00 time of the event start and hit perfect 20h timers, down to the second, for the rest. I think 17 was the realistic limit. I managed 16 because I wasn't willing to get up at 3am a couple times during the workweek.

Not really understanding the event burnout comments. If you were grinding events you were grinding for something other then event tickets. For the Witches Festival it took maybe a couple minutes a day to find a boss and kill it. CWC event took me about 10 seconds a day as I had stocked up on items to turn in for the crow daily. Worst case it took maybe 5-15 minutes per day to do a delve or kill a group boss (did anyone voluntarily choose to do the harvesting quest?). The Undaunted event was probably the most time intensive, but it was short and gave more tickets. Took maybe 10-30 minutes per day depending on delve and group (remember, you didn't need to use the group finder for the tickets). For New Life I don't think there was any of the nine quests that took more then 5 minutes (maybe fishing if you didn't pre-catch and keep extras).

My guess is that 50%-75% of the events planned this year will be similar to the CWC event. Take 5-10 minutes to do a daily and you're done. I'm already pre-stocking items for the Covetous Countess quest for the Thieves Guild & Dark Brotherhood Celebration.

Yeah, I got just about all the tickets from Witches/CWC/New Life... because I was participating in those events. Not because I was 'grinding tickets'. (I didn't do the Undaunted event, because I've no interest in that event).

Based on what was on the PTS, I wouldn't stock up much. DB/TG event tickets were linked to heist and sacrament only. While those aren't super long, they aren't as fast as some of the CWC dailies, and having to do one of each adds up. It also requires progression in the DLC content to get to these. Morrowind event tickets were one per WB daily, one per delve daily.

Collect 10 berry fragment fragments to get one berry fragment! collect 10 berry fragments to get one berry! collect 3 berries to evolve your pokemon- I mean indrik. BTW the fragments have a 0.01% chance to appear every time you run a vet HM dungeon and only on Vet HM. also only in DLC dungeons or the harder non DLC ones.
