    Wormcult motif should be readjusted next year to make it easier, and rest I think it shouldn't be this long. This event cause so many people to do some unhealthy habits.

    What's the spark for that question @Knowledge ? What are your thoughts.

    Personally think generic events like this are a good thing. It's the ones with randoms quests you have to repeat i dislike / don't do.

    I also think XP boosting periods are healthy for the game, it's too easy to level anyway, but that's for another thread.

    It was only extended because of server issues in Europe. It wasn't meant to go for 3 weeks

    2 weeks is fine - just needs live hamsters for the EU server

    If you dont like the event dont participate.

    Only issue I have with the event is that the Worm Cult droprate is damn annoying but thats RNG.

    This. So no need to shorten it next year.

    No, it was fine and extended because of the server issues.
    Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.

    11 days is fine for this Event.

    The extended 1 week on top of this was to compensate for additional and unplanned maintenance.

    BTW participation is optional and your personal choice. ZOS does not force anyone to do anything :)

    There is so much to do in this game without trying to cause an issue where there is none.

    I think the initial time would have been fine, the extension due to EU server issues made it a bit too long but I'm not going to complain as I enjoyed it and it let me get a couple more characters to max level.

    it was only extended because of service issues in the eu.

    It should be 2 weeks as planned.

    Unless there are 5+ days of maintenance during those 2 weeks, which is why it was extended this year.

    Not doing so would have been very unfair to European players.
    If they had extended the event only for European players, NA players would have complained.

    But there's always people who will complain even about free stuff being vgiien out to them...

    Original intended length was fine. I'm not going to complain about the extension either. All I did was writs on every character every day, and I plan to continue to do so for two reasons. One, gold. Two, I'll actually get my mount training done on the 9 characters that are not done.

    Last year jester festival was long, but this year they keep it short enough to not get boring. Same could be done with anniversary.

    Surely jester event is minor compared to jubilee thus an anniversary event 7-10 days would be perfect to farm motifs and not to burn out those who don't have self control.

    I think it's fine as it is, I had a ball, manage to level some ults up and to get a lot of extra gold through sales. As other have mentioned it was only given an extra week because of EU problems.

    Actually i think 3 weeks is perfect. While i got my WC motif during first two weeks it was a bit too stressfull and i had to buy few pages to make it in time. Then we got an extra week and during that week when i didn't have to think about collecting new motif asap this event actually started to be fun. For once there was an activity in this game that made me feel rewarded.

    I enjoyed the event and feel bad that it has ended. Celebrating a great game like this is really fun for me, thank you ZOS for making this event and +Awesome for extending it due to server issues, we love this part of the game very much.

    Well, barring issues with connectability, it should go back to its normal length next year.

    The only reason this event was longer was because of all the problems EU players were having.

    Since this thread has derailed rather quickly and we have had to remove several unnecessary comments, we have decided to close the thread down. Thank you for your understanding.
