Should "Pelinal's Midyear Boon Boxes" be available as a Daily Quest reward after the event?

Of course "Pelinal's Midyear Boon Boxes" should be called something else. It would be nice if the Reward for the Worthy didn't just flood your inbox with over-saturated gear that's flooding the market. As a PvE player I don't feel driven to PvP just for AP gain alone (saying this is weird because I used to be all about PvP in the past).

However I would continue to PvP if I can continue to get those boxes once a day for a chance at motifs (Akaviri!). Alchemy mats are also useful and getting those siege engines, repair mats, forward base, etc will help PvP move along with more ease. Lastly at least some of AP meant for motifs can now be allocated toward gold quality accessories instead, and maybe we'll start seeing them more often at a more reasonable price in guild traders. Personally, I think it's a win win situation for both the community and devs.

    Its an event for a reason.

    I loved the birthday boxes for doing my dailys, people liked the little gift boxes from other events like the holloween event for doing dungeons they were going to do anyway.

    I think just having more events would be better.

    If it were up to me I'd make special secret quests somewhere out randomly in the world that would just be in a random/semi random location. Where you would get a gift box like the the event boxes. It would change everyday. But it would like a lot of these other events pull people away from the major hubs (out of thier routenes) and out into the world to go find and do these quests. Perhaps give business to the random out of the way traders as a side benefit.

    It would be just as simple and inane as a lot of the other quests like midwinter and jesters fest quests. But you'd just travel and explore to go find these secret quests (which would not stay secret for long)

    It's an event. When the event is over the boxes stop. If you want the boxes do the activities related to the event.

    I agree with OP's point of view and think that the rewards for worthy should be reworked. I know OP limited it to quest rewards but I think the whole reward system could use a rework, including the daily quests.

    The typical rewards for worthy gear sets are so abundant now that nearly all of them are worthless. I think most PVPers just get annoyed with the backed-up inboxes we get because we don't want to have to waste our time going through all of our rewards for the worthy to decon and vendor them. Almost none of them are worth selling so its frankly just tedious for me to vendor them every time they come in. I would prefer that other rewards are offered in the the rewards for worthy mail. It doesn't necessarily have to be a literal "Pelinal's Box" but maybe instead of getting another blue reinforced belt of the Sentry to vendor, I have a chance to get a siege weapon, alliance potions/food, alchemy ingredients, etc. which I'll actually use instead.

    So maybe make it like 25% chance to get a set item, 25% chance to get a random siege item, 25% chance to get an alliance potion/food, and 25% chance to get another reward such as alchemy ingredients or on rare occasions a motif. Those are just off the cuff rates but I think reworking the rewards for worthy system to include additional, useful items like that would be a plus all around. It seems like a simple change that may attract more people to PVP and actually make rewards for the worthy worth opening rather than them just being a pain in the rear to go through and dispose of via decon/vendor.

    Boxes like you get in the gold coast for dailies? That'd be cool.
    Hoping for more playable races.

    I just want werewolf to be viable in endgame PvE T.T (which not allowed according to PTS update 50)

    Rename it to something else and take the Pelinal books out of it. Keep the motifs, the siege equipment, and the style materials and have it drop with every Rewards for the Worthy. Sure, why not?
    And so, Akatosh revealed himself to a young Gaben, and granted him purpose.
    "Grant them Steam sales," he commanded.
    And obey, he did.

    If you are going to get PvP rewards, it should be related to PvP activities. So no PvE quests...

    ^ Exactly, Event rewards should stay within events.

    No, it should be special because it is an event. But I would love if we had a MidMonth Mayhem event for 5 days and no rewards other than double AP. Then at least for 5 days in a month Cyrodiil would not be so empty.

    Yes, because the current rewards of the worthy is junk that clogs my mail. Opening a box and getting 3 columbine and a cold fire is infinitely better than ANY of those pvp sets.
