It's not worth to farm boxes just farm gold in IC no cp regular way 3Mil 10 hours

True. Some people seem to be misled about the actual value of Midyear Mayhem reward boxes (they aren't nearly as valuable as the Anniversary event boxes).

In short they may contain:

(rarely) a Hakeijo rune
(rarely) a motif page for the Pact/Covenant/Dominion or Akaviri style (prices for those will plunge in no time)
(rarely) some Transmute crystals (1-10 iirc)
(rarely) a coldfire siege
worthless junk

So as a pvp player you'll be better off just doing your usual thing for tons of AP (and reward boxes along with your RFTW mails).
As a pve player you'll probably make more gold/hour just farming mats in Craglorn (taking some load off the pvp servers too

)

Nice guide, thanks.

Just one little thing that could be improved in OP:

free ap*

Mwahaha no AP. I have a diabolical method to ensure no ganker profits from my pve toon's death. I die so often I have none on my corpse

That's Tel Var, you lose half of any TV Stones you're carrying if you're killed in IC or ICS, and it doesn't matter whether you're killed by another player or a MOB/etc.

With AP, enemy players get it "for free" when they kill you-- i.e., it doesn't come out of any AP you may have earned.

PSA-- Since we just got free TV as a daily login reward, be sure to bank it before you head to Cyrodiil, even if you don't plan to head into IC or ICS. Banking your TV as soon as you get it is a really good habit to get into.

You don't need to actually join a group to zerg; you can just tag along.

Bring any alliance war-related gear you may have received in the past-- siege stuff or repair stuff, forward camps, etc. Your fellow zergers will appreciate it.

This is me. Only PvP in MM. But have got to Lieutenant through tagging along with groups and playing with seige weapons or repairing walls. Oh and healing in sieges and running away a lot. Have only killed other players by accident! But had a blast doing it. Scouting missions are easy, but just be prepared to die. Often. It really doesn't matter much, apart from having to travel a lot.

Agreed, the only thing stopping any PvErs from having fun during this event is themselves.

"Cyrodiil merchant Adhazabi Aba-daro (also known as “The Golden”) stocks Alliance War Legendary-quality jewelry, with necklaces during the first weekend and rings during the second."

Can anyone give more info on this, like where is the npc located? Cyrodiil is a big place. Forgive me if it's in the OP. But I can't seem to see anything about it. How expensive are the goods the merchant sells? I require more information.

The guide seems to tell me everything except the one thing I want to know.

Cirantille · January 2020

Does the delve boss killing AP buff stack with the AP buff from event?

Sorry, first year in ESO and grinding for legate:)

She is in one of your alliance's bases. Specifically, at
Western Elsweyr Gate (AD)
Northern High Rock Gate (DC)
Southern Morrowind Gate (EP)
So once you get into Cyrodiil, you're in one of the two bases of your faction. Check the map if you're in the right one; if not, use the Transitus stone to port there. She is near the wayshrine, a Khajiit NPC with a golden glow.
There is zero PvP or even travelling through PvP areas required.

Best way for a new player/non-pvper to contribute in cyrodiil:

Bring in your tank spec. Defend anything being attacked and drop oil or use meat bags like crazy. Never fight and run away.

PvPers will hate you, you’ll be contributing a lot, and get lots of kills while getting revenge against people for all those times you were ganked.

Oil?
Meat Bags?

Pretty sure they stack as they are not the same buff.
XP buffs from events stack with training gear who stack with potion or scroll but potions and scrolls don't stack.

valeriiya · January 2020

For the PVE people: consider taking your PVE titles off while you're in PvP. I'm personally far more likely to attack a Shehai Shatterer or Mageslayer than a Grand Overlord

@marius_buys Thanks for the compilation.

@Ryath_Waylander
They will always get AP when they kill you (although the more they kill you the less and less they get) the only thing you can control is if they get TV from your corpse. I stay at 0 TV in Imperial City and don’t fight back to ruin their satisfaction, but they still get AP.

Ryath_Waylander · January 2020

True, but it's very slim pickings

Na0cho · January 2020

Y’all are crazy. Pvp is its own reward.

Neoealth · January 2020

Now if only I could actually play in Cyrodiil.

Queue times are beyond daft.

Choose a low pop campaign PvP regulars hate PvE players that clog up their factions queue and do not contribute to the factions war goals.

marius_buys · January 2020

To be honest, I think the zerglings won tonight via sheer numbers.

SmukkeHeks · January 2020

The 344 que and three quarters of an hour waiting, I gave up

That’s too brutal.

Stack Delve Boss bonus, Scroll/Ambrosia bonus and event bonus with training gear, group of two and ESO plus for max effect. Crazy XP.

Those town dailies give a surprising amount of XP. I leveled one character from 15 to 50 doing nothing but the town dailies that were readily available during the Jubilee’s Cyro week. Didn’t even mean to, it just sort of happened. Of course I had the cake buff going, but still.

MIDYEAR MAYHEM 2020 - CYRODIIL TOWN MISSIONS GUIDE

MAX OUT YOUR MAYHEM REWARD BOXES
The town quest givers will give out 50 quick & easy to do PvE MISSIONS per day.
There are 5 towns and each town has 2 quest givers that give out 5 missions each per day.
The town quests completes very quickly and needs no PvP skill if you can avoid other PvP players.
Completing all the Town (Settlement) missions will earn you the "Hero of Cyrodiil" title
There might be some PvP grievers ganking the "Cyrodiil Tourists" because they struggle to compete in actual PvP

NOTE: The HERO OF CYRODIIL title requirers you to do all 50 Town Quests. Try to complete all 10 before moving on as they are in an order and if you leave you might start anywhere in that order.

I have Tamriel Hero, but no Hero of Cyrodiil title. I am sure that I did all the town quests. I also did not see this title in the achievements list. Are you sure about this?

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Tamriel_Expert_Adventurer says that is correct. Frankly, I've only done it once and don't remember. (I also did a few of the non-repeatable Cyrodiil PvE quests.) Are you sure you've done the quests for all five towns? (One could also call it six given that the two quest givers solidly in DC territory aren't really in the same town.)

marius_buys · January 2020

Did you look under Cyrodiil or under Holiday event? Hero of Cyrodill is a title youget as a byproduct of farming boxes during Mayhem and not part of the event.
