    Well, is this a pledge or a trial? Here's your answer.

    Sorry, non native english speaker here, does weekly quest mean that we will only get one box from each trial this week or can i run lets say the carglorn trials today and get 3 boxes and do the same thing tomorow and will get another 3 boxes?

    @sudaki_eso Just to be clear, you can only get the anniversary box ONCE each week for each trial, per character. So if you run the Craglorn trials today and get 3 bonus boxes, you will not get anniversary boxes if you run them again tomorrow. However, if you run them a week later (in week 5 of the event), you SHOULD get bonus boxes.

    I mean instead of being snarky about a possible grey area you could answer the question civilly. Or alternatively if you don't know the answer you aren't obligated to post.

    It has a repeatable quest, A leader board, and is technically filed under trial, but broadly classified as an arena, like Dragonstar and Blackrose which I also don't know if they count.

    MA doesn't give a weekly reward urn... so no, it won't work the same way as trials if the anniversary box is attached to the weekly reward urn.

    It's unfortunate that the Mages Guild quests don't count for this.

    I'm playing at the moment with a friend who just started the game. He's working on his first character, level 20-something. Sad that he can't participate this week, even in a limited way; he's so excited about the game. Kind of goes against the spirit of One Tamriel?

    Doesn't affect me, of course, just an observation.

    Parts of this event are not very well thought out tbh. They should of given us a gift box for each random dungeon completed as well. Just roll on week 5 so I can start to catch up :/

    Yeah, the Undaunted event last time was a tire fire because of the dungeon finder NOT working properly. It was so bad the said they wont use it again for an event until it was fixed.

    NEW question - during week Five, will ALL styles drop from ANY yellow crate, or are the styles bound to their original quest type?

    So, is there a chance of a Week Four style from a crafting writ or a PVP daily?

    Anyone know ?

    @ZOS_GinaBruno any chance you can confirm?

    I can confirm that during week 5, ANY daily (even those that haven't counted in any previous week) will drop an anniversary box that has a chance of containing any of the companion pages. I did crafting writs during the Week 5 testing on PTS and got a Sai Sahan chest page (I'm sure I won't be that lucky on live), as well as some Tharn and Lyris pages.

    That's why I skipped week 3 as I'm not a PvPer and didn't want to bother (I've participated in Midyear Mayhem before, but just didn't want to bother with week 3, as I was getting event burnout/fatigue). I'll do some pledges this week, but I'm not going to worry too much about it, as week 5, I'll just go back to my crafting writs for 70 boxes/day, plus at least the Crow dailies. On the weekend, I'll do more.

    How is it a grey area? The only quests rewarding Anniversary boxes are pledges and trial weeklies. Arenas are neither pledges or trials, the answer is pretty clear...

    I know that the event had some oddities, like CWC with Slag Town dailies giving boxes although they are not delves, but except for these 2 dailies, objectives are always very clear. This week is pledges and trials.

    9 dailies turned in. 9 Anniversary boxes. 0 Sai Sahan page.

    ZOS, why should we waste our time to be rewarded with Alchemy ingredients? With the limited amount of boxes obtainable this week, don't you think it would have made sense to seriously increase the drop rate?

    Asking again: why should we bother with this week? What was the intention behind week #4?
    I got 2 out of 10, Jack and guards :) Both in an old pledge I had not turned in.

    I do this because I have alts who has not done the quests in some of the dungeons and chance of Sai pages I can sell for huge profit.

    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    We'll see how it pans out when prime hour comes upon us soon. In the case of pugging; If the finder gets bogged down that leaves us with trials of which I would think be the faster option than forming through a guild. A good group running a quick trial in maybe what, 15-20 mins just for one box? I received no page drops as of yet. On a good note, i'd imagine the market for them will be nice to sell if you happen to have the good RNG upon ye.

    And then we would have thread upon thread in the forums about people porting to FG1 to complete the dungeon quickly.

    If would be worse than the people complaining about having to PvP.

    I've been doing Undaunted pledges and haven't gotten any drops since the beginning of this event, and not from the Undaunted Pledges either.

    Just to clarify, the dailies that will grant a gift box are the Undaunted Pledges and Trial weekly quests (delve dailies do not count).

    Could yall add the delve dailies for next year? You have to be level 45 to get Undaunted Pledges and that blocks new players from participating. I'm not new but I know how that feels because another game I used to play level locked things like this also, it's frustrating to be excluded just because you don't yet have a higher level character.

    For those that want more boxes per hour or only have a couple level 50 characters, here's my approach to this week. I'm only going to run a few pledges a day, but I'll be loading up all my alts with world boss and delve quests to turn in next week. I did skyreach on a couple yesterday.

    You should be able to start a new character today and have at least 15 quests to turn in next week and you have at least 8 character slots. For me with 9 fully leveled characters, I'm looking at starting with over 200 boxes next Thursday based on time spent playing this week. So if you feel left out because you don't have many characters at level 45, you can still convert time spent this week into boxes. Just don't accidentally turn in your quests.

    Ran a MG daily (public dungeon) today it did not give an anniversary box. Whether they did or not was a fair question since it was a daily dungeon quest, so just posting my results to confirm they do not give boxes this week.

    Does anyone have a definitive list of which dailies count toward “dungeons and trials”. I’m struggling to think of many, especially if I discount trials (i’ll do a few of those I’m sure, but they’re not really conducive to solo play!).

    Cheers in advance folks.

    That means that only the trials are repeatable? Would be nice if randoms also count...
    It would be, but since people can't help themselves and try to 'work the system' (and then later mock it) by fast travelling to nFG1 and doing that instead of where they spawned into....

    So are drop rates adjusted for the fact that this means we will earn less gift boxes?

    Apparently not. 18 boxes so far and zero Sai Sahan pages. Based on previous three weeks, I expected at least one.

    Sample size is too small for confidence, though.

    yeah, i dont have high hopes to get the all the style pages this week, but i also wouldnt advice to buy them this week. Just wait for the end of week 5 when prices are down to almost nothing :wink:
    i will probably only doing the base dungeon pledges, solo one while waiting in queue for the other one (if no guildies are available) and then move on to carglorn and join a quick ncr farm group - much faster then doing any dlc dungeon.

    Unless they keep it at the current nerfed level, which is unfortunately more likely. I have far too many Week 1 stuff (still) but almost nothing from the later weeks. Really disgusting.

    @driosketch Repeating trials do not count in my experience (also only one person in my group looted a box; I reckon because everyone else had done VMOL for the weekly anyway). I did VMOL this AM my time, and also just now - and No Box - I guess the boxes only come when coffers are due. Which sucks.
