Why splitting tickets again?

UglyTriangle

It would be nice if you could choose which zones you'd visit to do the dailies for the tickets. On the other hand, it isn't terribly surprising they picked a PvE zone and a PvP zone for the split tickets.

I've been playing forever and never bothered to venture into IC (not much of a PvPer) so I think I will this time around to get the ticket/spend time with a guild group.

Hate IC. The zone is cool, the idea is not.

The original idea was great. Basically it was supposed to be like Darkness Falls in DAoC; a PvE zone that unlocks based on your alliance’s PvP conquests. PvP would still be enabled there, but if your alliance didn’t control IC you couldn’t respawn on death.

This went away with the One Tamriel concept because you can’t alliance lock content when we’re all one big happy family.

You can do one mission without having to do PVPat all because you can do it without going down from the safe spot upstairs.
So, how are you penalized?

give me more info on that, cause i never went there... other then the golden vendor what daily?

They ment basically that you can grab the Arena distric quest,go up the ladder from your alliance home base in the sewers and stand on the platform and kill objects wich count towards the quest without having to go down.
When you acidently role down or jump down or whatever,you have to go the the sewer entrance and go back all the way to your alliance base in the sewers,or you just simply get killed and respawn where you started.

It is meh,I personally always did complete the Arboretum distric quest but that requires you to go down and loot mobs so you have a chance to get killed by players.
I never did bother to stand on the platform because specially during the event many people will do that and if you arent quick enough all will be dead before you get a chance to hit it.
I think the arena district quest is the only one you can complete without going down,but I could be wrong.

honestly i will do any clagorn daily over imperial district if those were counting
guess i will just do wrothgar

Same as me,I mean as other people did mention,you can still do the quests before the event starts,if you are lucky you may not run into any/many nightblades.
Craglorn or Wrothgar give one ticket,so you can choose wich one you want to do.

Eso101rus

Am I right in thinking the Craglorn trials will drop double gold loot? If so that’s a nice bonus.

You can cheese the rescuing people daily the same way. last time there were loads of people just stood in the right spot AFKing the quest.

So people still don't know that you can do a quest in IC from the safe spot without having to go down or they just like to complain when there is something pvp-related?

You can die up there too, far too easily with some enemy skills.

That is not a "safe spot". You have to be in a place you can die if you want credit for the freed people.

I like PVP but I have really started to dislike IC over the last couple of years, the only time it's fun for me now is when we do Guild IC Evenings and yes I suppose that does enable us to stay alive better, however we never attack solo players, unless attacked first.

I am so very happy I have enough tickets and pet parts that I do NOT have to go any where near that place, one ticket a day will be fine for me.

I think @ZOS_GinaBruno, @ZOS_Kevin it's time to stop trying to force people to go somewhere they apparently really do NOT want to go!! 😠

VaranisArano

I wish ZOS was allowing PVE-only players to do White Gold Tower or Imperial City Prison for event tickets.

They always allowed that option during past Imperial City events. Requiring District dailies just seems like ZOS is trying way to hard to get players into Imperial City PVP.

Luke_Flamesword

Geez, I hate so much IC dailies - it's worst event ticket task and I even like PvP, so I don't want to know how typical PvE's feel

I just did one quest for tomorrow and of course again or still some skills don't work (critical rush, dragon leap). So I even can't use all my skills to fight with unbalanced, op gankers? So nice... I liked IC events in the past, but it's a year now when there are constant probvlems with skills. Seriously, if you want to forced us to go there, fix it already... Especially for dk's lacks of dragon leap really hurts...

RisenEclipse

Honestly there has always been ticket drops in multiple zones if multiple zones are included for the event. Since it's a Craglorn/Wrothgar/imp city event it's no surprise that there's tickets split between them. I'm more wondering why we don't get three tickets a day with one in each of them lol but if you want one and done ticket hand-ins, just wait for the Halloween Witches Festival.

During the Year One Celebration, you can earn up to two Event Tickets per day by completing the following:
One Event Ticket for completing a Daily Quest in Wrothgar or Craglorn
One Event Ticket for completing a District Daily Quest in the Imperial City

Isn't it enough that during Midyear Mayhem we have to go into 2 different zones to earn tickets?
I mean I get it,its 3 zones but my playtime is limited and I would like to farm some DSA and MA during double loot but I wont be able to because I will sit in IC for like 30 minutes trying to complete a district quest.

I will see myself rather skipping the ticket thing this time and go for the double loot instead.

Someone is pushing their players hard towards the crownstore to get tickets

I won't skip Craglorn. But then, I'm not absolutely everyone, so I don't count.

I don't know whether anyone already pointed this out, but Craglorn and Imperial City are free and available to everyone, but Wrothgar is not-- you either need to have bought the Orsinium DLC, or gotten it as part of a bundle, or subscribe to ESO Plus. That means all players can get 2 tickets each day, whether or not they have access to the Orsinium DLC.

Gadget4

You only need to go into the IC twice ... once prior to the event starting, to pick up & complete the 6 zone quests, then the same again 6 days later, when it’s early/late & quiet ... that’s 12 days of handing in 1 quest per day, & only 1 actual visit to the IC during the event

If I could just take all the IC dailies at base that would already make it so much more appealing. Can't be bothered to go through all the loading screens or especially doing quests one by one and going home after each.

This is honestly one of the most annoying parts with doing district dailies. There's even a cooldown between leaving and entering, so you have to go to a district, grab the daily, wait, return to the base, wait, go to the next district and grab daily, wait, return to base and repeat. It's awful.

I just complete each daily as I accept it, rather than trying to accept all 6 before doing any of them.

If I get killed before I get a daily done, I'll accept another one if I get resurrected in a district where I haven't done the daily yet, otherwise I just resurrect in the base and take a few minutes to do something before I try to take the ladder up.

Typically, I visit the crafting stations to decon gear and visit the banker to deposit Tel Var each time I go to the base, before I take a ladder up to a district. That takes long enough to avoid getting the "already queued" message.

shadyjane62

A ticket I can't really use does not entice me to go to IC and be ganked by gangs of marauders stealing tel var stones. How can you put a ticket there? Nothing would make me go to IC.

Red_Feather

Imperial City is not a place I enjoy going to, but I guess at least it's only 1 ticket. I can safely skip that I think and still get 10.

Going back to the base is more time consuming than grabbing them all first, as painful as that process is.

That depends on how you get back to base.

During Midyear Mayhem I like to bounce back and forth between Cyrodiil and the Imperial City, so as soon as I complete a district quest in IC I'll look for a sheltered spot where I can go into stealth and queue for Cyrodiil.

Once in Cyrodiil, I grab two city dailies from the two quest-givers and complete those quests. If they take me far enough away from the quest-givers then I'll queue back into the Imperial City rather than return to the quest-givers right away.

Once in IC, I turn in my quest, decon and bank my rewards, then grab and do the next district's quest, and keep repeating that back-and-forth process until I'm done in both zones.

If there's no need to do the city dailies in Cyrodiil (even though it's a good idea to do them anyway, for the gear rewards and the Alliance Points), I'll just queue into Cyrodiil and then immediately queue back into the Imperial City.

Doing it that way is quicker for me, especially if I'm trying to do the dailies in both zones for the TV, AP, and gear. But going back to base through the sewers is definitely going to take longer, not to mention being more dangerous.

They certainly haven't spent much time fixing known bugs there in the past 5 years, so that statement may not be completely true!

That assumes your faction owns the question hub and the path to get there. You still have to take the delay of the load screens and some transit thingies. I am betting it would still take longer, though not bad to weave for some questions when they are very far from where they are given.

I have done the same many times, but it seems quite slow no matter what and I often find AD doesn't own much at all.

It seems clear we should expect this when the event involves multiple areas of the game. This even seems to be celebrating the additions of multiple zones.

I hate IC too, so I got all 6 done earlier on my main. I just go up and down the ladders until I have all quests, then I go in a circle until they are all complete. As soon as I was done, I used the teleport stone to go straight back to base. I find it is less miserable and much quicker if I just completely avoid the sewers.

Anyone looking for the easiest IC daily should do the one where you burn all the ballista and then blow up the forge. That one doesn’t even take 2 minutes to do since you can ride your mount to each location and the objectives don’t dismount you. I ride past all enemy players and NPCs, works great! 😅
