Are you able to share what Indriks will be available during these events? Prior articles referred to "seasonal" Indriks, which made it sound like 2 Indriks will be available for 3 months, then a different 2 will be cycled in. Is that based on the existing Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4 event timings? Are the current Icebreath and Luminous Indriks the "Q2 Indriks" and will disappear after Zeals of Zenithar and 2 new Indriks will appear for Q3? Or will Icebreath and Luminous still be available during Mayhem?

Since excess tickets are in short supply, many of us are trying to figure out best way to spend them and on what Indrik fragments. Some insight into the way Indrik cycles will work would be very helpful!

Looks great! Will any of these coincide with the server upgrades for pc eu and console or not?

Scaletho

Looks very nice.

I would agree with this!

They are also not clear overall. Do you buy the 10 ticket one or started inching your way there as in the past? I am finally getting some spare tickets and all my past Indriks are in exile on the PS4, so I will collect them (though the inability to xfer mounts remains an annoying point for me). I am just clueless on what I should be pursuing.

thanks for the heads-up!

Hey, look, it's not just months anymore, it's now early/late <month>. Just a couple of years more and we'll start having full dates!

Jk, thank you, any info on the events is always much appreciated!

Looking forward to midyear mayhem. I hope that we see the typical good server performance that we have enjoyed in previous events.

Would be nice to have even more campaigns to be made available compared to previous Mayhems, especially after PC-NA got better performance after the hardware upgrade.

Is Whitestrakes Mayhem the PvP event?

Yes!

If Whitestrake Mayhem is in late July, we'll get the EU server upgrades before that, right? Right?

They're still sourcing them according to their latest update so I doubt it'll be ready until 2023. I've gone to NA for that reason.

You'll be lucky to see them before October.

Hotdog_23

Thanks for the information.

Please run the undaunted event over 2 weekends please. Last time it was only for one weekend and I had to work that weekend and missed out on most of it.

Stay Safe

@Dagoth_Rac We'll pass that feedback along. We did share this last events worth of available Indriks in a forum post, but it would be more convenient for everyone if it was in the article.

ZOS_Kevin

@FluffyBird Trying to find a middle ground here. We're testing giving a timeframe just so that players have a ballpark of when events are until we have them more set in stone. Would feel bad to give dates now and having them slip. Hopefully the early/late will help in planning to some degree.

No update on server upgrades yet. We're still at the mercy of supply chains. We'll update once we have concrete plans related to this.

Hi @Dagoth_Rac

This article on ESO-Hub has been there since near the end of April, and it contains a schedule for the Indrik variant availability.
I discovered it during the Zenithar event. I rely on ESO-Hub as one of my sources for game info, so I assumed this is accurate.
https://eso-hub.com/en/news/how-to-get-indrik-mounts-that-you-missed-in-eso

Based on that info, I was looking forward to having the Onyx Indrik berries available starting with the next event.

But given the response of @ZOS_Kevin to your question here, which makes it sound like info about the schedule of Indrik availability hasn't been made public yet, it makes me wonder what the source of info for this article was.

Were the Indriks that could be bought directly for 10 tickets different? Or was that just a shortcut? I only got 1 on PC NA, since my tickets were all in use, but I wish those would just stay around.

I stopped playing actively but always come back to the game when Mayhem event is up, [snip]

Which is why the premise for the event is very flawed.

[snip] some just enjoy the ganking, ruining the event for so much of the playerbase.

Thanks, this is the type of information I love to know in advance!

Just to add, as there is no free house for tickets this year I will just assume that the Heroes of High Isle event will be a community event where we can earn a free house in High Isle, right? I know Kevin can't spoil us anything, but l will just hope it is like in Greymoor.

Since the Heroes of High Isle event will award event tickets for doing activities within High Isle, will the zone be available to all players ( eso plus and / or standard game ) for the duration of the event or just for those of us that have purchased the Chapter ?

I can foresee a fair amount of confusion among players if this is not stated clearly in advance. I am aware of several players that are waiting for High Isle to go on sale before purchasing. I can also foresee a fair amount of complaints if the event is perceived to allow some players event tickets and not others ( FOMO - based ).

It's usually just the Chapter owners, frequently involves a sale on the Chapter, and yes, it is FOMO-based. See the similar Bounties of Blackwood event last year.

This is old, but it looks like you never got your answer. The only Indrik I recall for 10 tickets were pets though. The ones you create with multiple items are mounts.

From the datamine, the "big" prize from the community event is the Q4 Zone DLC (like with Blackwood).
