for those that don't care about indrik mounts and stylepages. (event tickets)

Can we please get transmute crystals from the mediator? like, 10 tickets, 50 crystals or something? rlly don't give a rat's *** about anything from the vendor.

What about those that don't care about transmute Crystal's though?

cpuScientist

But yeah I'd love me some Crystal's if they got added HOWEVER since they can be bought in store, that'd be p2w so nope

I partially agree with the OP. I am not an avid collector, participant or go out of my way to pimp out the best budgetary use of event tickets. What you get from the event tickets are novelty items that don't actually help me further any character. Maybe I'm too pragmatic.

This is what I'd consider a fun, inspiring drive to participate in events:

1. Crafting materials: Who doesn't need this with a roster full of characters doing daily writs.
2. Style materials: Again, some style materials are hard to acquire by most casual players, so this is a nice boon.
3. Transmute crystals: Again, dungeon/trial/overland gear grinding time saver for the right trait for the character build, so this is also a nice boon.
4. Anniversary crafting tables (purchasable in fragments to make ready-to-use crafting table) for a "limited edition" trial-style item set.
5. Random "limited edition" trial-style item.

Note, listed items #4 and #5 could be found in the anniversary box (i.e. rare or very rare) or purchasable set items via event vendor for the interim of the event. Things like this, in one way or another, would help me further a character. The "limited edition" item set offers something new, different and rewarding for chasing the rabbit, so to speak, to earn event tickets.

My 2cents here.

I'm quite sure the events' primary goal is not to "further your character", and that's the reason we get collectibles and style items for rewards. If you want upgrades, do vet dungeons and trials.

I've been pondering the same, especially for next year if they aren't planning on adding new mounts and style prizes to the Impresario.

By adding some sort of consumable (like the example of transmutation crystals) or crafting materials to the list of prizes, they can cover all of their bases and include players who have already purchased all of the collectibles or simply aren't interested in the remaining ones.

I do appreciate the XP boost, though, but yeah, just because bonus boxes are 'free' - doesn't mean the contents are worth indrik poop.

_Ahala_

Sell the pages then

*edit
Wait... you can’t sell ticket items? Lame...

DeadlyRecluse

They should just unbind the impresario stuff, so you can at least sell berries/feathers/pages, if you don't care personally.

I understand not everything has to further your character. Yet, isn't that the main attractions of the game: having some semblance of character immersion? This could be portrayed through many venues and play-styles, such as builds, themed characters, role-play, etc. Why should characters be stereotyped or must follow one of the BiS lemming builds posted on Streamers websites?

Point being that each person plays to enjoy their own characters, chosen play-style, or content preference...So, why not offer something new and not just another collectible? Break the mold and let people participate in anniversary events that might inspire new concepts, builds, etc. while having fun playing.

Honestly, I will never outfit one of my characters as one of the main story characters; maybe someone else likes that. That's why I feel those types of collectibles are eh, boring, and simply novelty that you can do without.

I agree
Any regular apex mount is more rare than the Indrik.
I use a radiant apex mount from a selection I have, so it is really not relevant to me.
I do spend the tickets on the Indrik+upgrade because it takes no effort to accumulate tickets and I need to stay below the limit.

I would like this also, the drop to get these are horrible...2 from a purple?

Girl_Number8

PvP crystals are plentiful for moi. My characters are always loaded with crystals.

Though idk why they give 1 crystal for undaunted pledges....Seems like something they should change.

With the event, allow us to sell the items, problem solved....Here feathers and berries 'gimmi gold.'

Anything in the Impressario is purchasable with real money via Crown Store tickets, so putting any functional benefits there should be a no-go

This is a valid point.
Though there should be something useful other than cosmetics.
Maybe the useful items other than cosmetics can be bought by other currency, like "event special tickets".
Those tickets won't be available in the crown store.

xenowarrior92eb17_ESO

that would be kewl...id also love if we could trade them for something more useful like...Aetheric Dusts or even gold...nirn stones...stuff like those since I completely dont give a skeevers tail about indriks and style pages cuz im already overflown with all of them e.e
oooooorrrrr as I even said before... COSTUMES...HAIR Styles....cosmetic stuff available only for that season at impresario...seriously crown store been abandoned in terms of character customization and instead we getting stuff in crown crates...still not buying them zos cuz no amount of gamble will get to miew!...so start caring about stuff that affects everyone not just those with large pokets IRL..
