Prepare for battle! Celebrate the legendary hero Pelinal Whitestrake and his victory at the Bridge of Heldon by taking part in our first Midyear Mayhem PvP event and earning the Midyear Victor's Laurel Wreath collectible hat. It is said that those who wear the Midyear Laurel feel themselves infused with the holy rage of the spirit of Pelinal himself! To learn how you can get your own Laurel Wreath while earning double Alliance Points, PvP gear, and rare crafting items, read on!

WIN GLORY ON THE BATTLEFIELD

Ready for action? This glorious new event featuring brand new rewards tailored for PvP players begins on July 20 at 10am EDT and ends on July 31st at 10am EDT.

To take part in the festivities and win honor on the field of battle, follow the steps below:

Navigate to the Crown Store to acquire and activate a ticket entitled “Details on the Midyear Mayhem"
Travel to your Alliance War faction's main gate in Cyrodiil using the Alliance War menu
Find the quest giver “Predicant Maera" and pick up the quest “Midyear Mayhem"
Complete the quest to receive your Scroll of Pelinal's Ferocity and a Pelinal's Midyear Boon Box
Activate the scroll to enjoy a two-hour, 100% bonus to Alliance Points earned in the following PvP game modes (Duels excluded):
Alliance War (Cyrodiil)
Imperial City (Imperial City DLC game pack is required)
Battlegrounds (ESO: Morrowind is required)


The Scroll of Pelinal's Ferocity will remain in your inventory after use, allowing you to re-use it for the entirety of the event. Get out there and earn some AP!

SEIZE A NEW COLLECTIBLE CROWN

As you participate in PvP activities (excluding Duels) during the event, you can earn a new collectible hat: the Midyear Victor's Laurel Wreath. Wear this golden laurel proudly, and let it be known that you are a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield!

To show off your prowess and style with this unique collectible, unlock the “Star-Made Knight" achievement by completing each of the seven unique Midyear Mayhem event achievements. Check your Journal for details!



Note that some achievements will require the Imperial City DLC game pack and the ESO: Morrowind Chapter to complete.

ENJOY THE SPOILS OF WAR

Bonus Alliance Points and a new hat are not the only rewards you can receive during this event. As you earn praise on the battlefield, you will also receive Pelinal's Midyear Boon Boxes along with your standard Rewards for the Worthy items. These special event reward boxes will contain Tel Var Stones and give you a chance to receive one of the following rewards:

Alchemy reagents
PvP consumables such as repair kits, forward camps, and siege weapons
Motif pages for your Alliance and Akaviri
Style items for your Alliance
Akaviri style items
Coldharbour siege weapons
Prismatic Runestones
Books of Pelinal housing items
There's still more! During the weekends of the event, the merchant Adhazabi Aba-daro (also known as “The Golden") will offer all of the Legendary-quality jewelry that can usually only be earned via the Alliance War! You can find Adhazabi in the Western Elsweyr Gate, Northern High Rock Gate, or Southern Morrowind Gate once you enter Cyrodiil.



In the first weekend of the event you can use Alliance points to purchase necklaces, and in the second, to purchase rings. During the event, Adhazabi Aba-daro will not accept gold as payment for these items, so put those additional Alliance Points to good use!

Finally, from July 27th until July 31st, you can pick up the Midyear Mayhem Crowns bundle in the Crown Store. This bundle includes three Imperial crowns celebrating the Midyear Mayhem event: the Circlet, the Coronet, and the Diadem.

I would just love it if the site fricking remembered what we put in. I mean if I use the same computer and browser, why can't it remember it?

It does for the most part. I'm not overly technical but I imagine it's attached to a cookie or something that expires. If that's the case... further out expiry would be nice.

Is it weird that I read aggregate?

I read it that way, too. I see that word way too much at work...

Also, yeah, the age-gate is annoying.

I have yet to put in the same age twice, and none have ever been my real Birthday.

So, not really sure what the Age Gate is accomplishing here.

The agegates aren't really meant to prevent minors from accessing restricted content; They're in place to transfer liability over to the user, whether that be the minor or his parents, when they fudge the numbers and get in anyway. If they lie and say they're 18 or older, they're accessing it under false pretenses.

ZOS, like many other companies, doesn't want to be seen actively peddling mature content to minors. It's a stopgap.
