Dragon Rise event needs clarification

I get that ESO is trying to come up with a new event. It's cool. I even hopped in and killed my first dragon yesterday. However, the description is still not clear. I'm reading that after 3 dragons are dead the XP bonus is unlocked. However, many are saying its only after the other 3 get to 100%. You know the other 3 that share a % bar and are separated by a line across the web page as if it is a different item. If it isn't until after (if) the 100% pathfinder is reached then it needs to state that. Even the Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/elderscrollsonline/ says "Each creature felled will also help unlock the XP buff reward during the #DragonRise event – what more reason do you need to start hunting Dragons?". It clearly states that after 3 dragons are dead then the XP buff is applied. I saw 3 dragons die in less than 10 minutes. On a side note, the 3 dragon things just seems low, like why even bother low.

    I must admit that I also thought the Meyers were separate, but it's very obviously more than 3 dragons. :D

    Are you possibly misreading the date and thinking it means kills required?

    scroll down to the bottom of the event tracker - there is a specific dragon kill tracker and its currently at 20%. so I would estimate that xp buff should unlock around October 10 at the latest, possibly earlier since there may be more instances with dying dragons over the weekend.

    Ok I have no earthly idea where I got the "3" from. Maybe someone trolled me last night while in game. I see the meter has moved now so that is good. Still, it wasn't clear though. I'm standing by that phrase at least. LOL

    Yeah I can confirm that the meter was at 0 until very recently, so that definitely made it confusing.

    What we don't know is how much the XP boost is. Is it 50%, 100%, 5%? Since I'm assuming it's a permanent boost, it's probably closer to 5% or 10%. Or perhaps 20%. I guess it's a good way to keep players coming back to the zone to level characters.

    Another question is whether this is a buff placed on your character when in the zone or if it just boosts the XP rewards from quests, mobs, dailies. If the former, then even doing crafting dailies would give extra XP, which I don't think would be the case, so probably just a boost to all the XP rewards for doing specific Elsweyr activities.

    If it's the same as SummerFall last year, the site, and percent completion numbers, will only update once each day (in the morning).

    That much is obvious. But one of the meters had updated twice while the other one stayed at zero, so that's where the confusion in this thread came from.

    I think the reason behind that is that the pathfinder achievement is retroactive where as the dragon kill count wasn't. So the first update yesterday was just them adding what had been achieved the previous weeks.
