Oh, give me a break.

We're not 10 year olds learning life lessons.

We're adults, who will just wander off and do something else, once we reach the end of our tethers.

It's a game, for God's sake.

SoLooney · April 2019

It should at least not let you accept tickets if you're full, or make that an option

But you live and learn

If you want to say you are an adult then you are certainly free to act like one as an adult I expect you will know life doesn't always bend over for you if you slip up and aren't paying attention it might cost you hence the *Lesson Learned *

But since its only a game this thread is completely pointless.

I made the same mistake as the OP soon as the event kicked off I wasn't paying attention I had 12 tickets and I used the cake so I robbed my self of 2 because I didn't burn them off prior to and Zos made it very clear 12 was max and if we wanted more we had to spend some.

Sometimes you gota man up and accept the fact if you slipped up it is what it is acknowledge it happened accept responsibility and try not repeat it anything else is whining *imo*

Are you serious? Using cake when you have 12 tickets in inventory spoils the daily ones?

Got 12 tickets - used daily cake - spent 10 tickets for berry - used daily cake again - no more tickets.

Are you serious that this should work that way?

Damn ZoS you make me mad EVERY time you make ANYTHING...

yes it is supposed to work this way. the effects of not having a soul is still not understood by the vestiges, but one of the consequences is a psychotic obsession with never carrying more than 12 tickets with them and therefore your character will destroy tickets before obtaining a total of 13 or higher. Who knows maybe they are right, such many tickets could lead to a doomsday event occurring. What if the vestiges are not insane? what if the threat is real? I think you can live without those tickets knowing Nirn wont risk destruction.

So do we get two tickets every day we eat the cake? I had 6 and finally got the cake, so now I’m at 8 tickets (notice: I don’t have a single feather yet lmao)

You get two tickets once every day for eating cake. Up to the limit of 12. At the point you have 12 in your Currency pane, then you need to use some on something. If you want the luminous indrik (the icky yellow one that's current) you should buy berries as you have tickets to spend, because the feathers will be available all along through the events during the year. So you can get the berries you need, and get the feathers later.

Yes, but only once per day. You can gorge yourself on cake all you want - but you only get the 2 tix once for the day.

Ah ok! I’m probably going to get the feathers first cause the only mount I really want is the onyx one

No one asked for your opinion on that, though, did they?

No one cares if you (wrongly) think they are whining.

Why you would not yet know that no one cares what you (a stranger on the internet) think about them, I have no idea?

The OP came here to complain about a pointless mechanic, in a game, that unnecessarily trips people up and/or forces them to make multiple, unnecessary, journeys to a vendor all the time.

He's right to complain about that.

The level of unnecessary time wasting, in this game, is very high and there is absolutely no need for it, as there is more than enough content without it.

ESO need to look into the QOL aspects of this game, as it is way behind most other modern MMOs in that way.

The cap is there so you don’t pile up the tickets in the past and be able to skip coming/ current events.

Yeah, because heaven forbid that anyone skipped even one of these godforsaken, badly designed events.

Far better to make everyone so utterly miserable, that they leave during, or immediately after, them instead...

Stellarvorous · April 2019

@Tigerseye I didn't recall anyone else ask your opinion either but here we are.

And if the events are so horrible why bother doing them?

If having to go to an event vendor to spend tickets is so hard and time consuming *Woe is me* why bother doing it?

Whether you agree or disagree with me doesn't matter end of the day OP came to complain about something extremely minor when the game is suffering from actual issues that would benefit better from attention of the devs like say idk

1 Class Balance
2 Game Performance
3 Bugs Like being Stuck in Combat.
4 PvP And All related Issues
5 The future of the game in general

You know minor things trifles! but hey I guess being able to hold only 12 event tickets at once is rough and not being able to get more till those 12 are spent Oh have mercy on us Sithis its too much to much I say!

Those mount rides from wayshrines near the event vendors must be killer that whole minute of being on auto run must just burn the muscles in the hand....

Sarcasm aside if this seriously is what you think Zos should be spending their time on to *accommodate* some people who make it sound as if its almost a chore to play the game and do these events for their own rewards then I have to ask why bother logging on to play it?

Stellarvorous · April 2019

@Tigerseye Doh something else I forgot to bring up that you mentioned in 2 posts I will be quoting as I inquire on

"No one cares if you (wrongly) think they are whining."

"Far better to make everyone so utterly miserable, that they leave during, or immediately after, them instead..."

Now in both of these instances you seem to be taking the liberty of speaking for others now granted if others had an issue with my words and every single forum accessible account logged on to tell me to shut up I would strongly consider doing it *maybe*

That being said when you presume to speak for others to justify your own arguments not only does that come off as short sighted and self serving but its also extremely arrogant if I might add.

Granted you are welcome to have an opinion and you are welcome to disagree with me all you want but you are not welcome to speak on everyone's behalf unless they have all publicly made it clear they don't mind because I surely mind.

When you say "Far better to make everyone so utterly miserable" Now iv done a few of these events and whether you realize it or not when you say everyone you are including me in that and I don't recall giving you that permission to speak on my behalf to prop up your own argument regarding this event and the tickets associated with it.

All of that being said its your move *Check*

Tasear · April 2019

Thanks though the first thing I did today was spend mine.

Brrrofski · April 2019

Is it a rubbish system? Yes.

Is it obvious it will happen? Yes. It says /12. That means 12 is the max.

AndyMac · April 2019

I stopped caring about tickets when then they appeared in the Crown store tbh - I’ve been burning them for days to get my cake buff and I don’t care.

And nobody asked for yours either, but here you are, jumping into other people’s posts when they weren’t even talking to you in the first place and you rudely claiming that nobody else’s opinions matter but your own.

1. Check your tickets and if you have 10 go to the impressario and buy something
2. Always eat cake after checking tickets and before whatever you are doing next
3. Make sure you pick up appropriate dailies that will reward gold boxes
4. Refresh you cake buff regularly

You can have your cake and eat it too😊😊😊

I learned this the hard way 🤓

Nerftheforums · April 2019

How about using a bit of brain next time? 😂

Michae · April 2019

Btw. Why even farm tickets if you don't plan on spending them. And teleporting to the Impressario once a week to get a berry or feather is hardly time consuming. People complained about long daily quests that they had to do to get the tickets and now all they have to do is eat a cake once a day and go to vendor once a week. What more do you want?

PS. This is a public forum. Making a whining thread and then telling people who disagree with what you say that "Nobody asked them for opinion" is just stupid. You wan't to complain directly to ZOS? Don't post it on general board. Make a ticket or at least put it on bug report board. And chill.

Just like I don't know why you can only have one boss quest at a time.

...and like I don't know why you can only have 25 quests, in your quest log, despite there being multiple crafting dailies, writs and so on.

...and like I don't know why they designed this event to be broken up into separate weeks of doing one thing, obsessively, all the time.

I just don't know why they make everything so unnecessarily annoying, frankly?

The game population is an asset to the game. I mean, it's part of the financial balance sheet. In that regard, someone who logs in once in a month and plays 12 hours in a row on that one occasion is far less valuable than someone who logs in everyday for 30 minutes. The everyday loggers are far more likely to get involved in the game, spend money on crown stuff, be an active part of guilds and social life, attract new players, etc.
Unique daily logins are therefore more valued in the balance sheet, and considered a true indicator of the general health of the game and potential return on investment. That's why ZOS designs pretty much everything in the game with the intention to have us logging in on a daily basis. Hence the limits. You can't stack up in advance, nor catch up later. If you don't log in, you miss something.

Nestor · April 2019

So I have to ask, why do we have this low limit of 12. Why even have a limit, what purpose does it serve?

MaleAmazon · April 2019

1. Make stupid mistake in computer game.

2. Create thread about said mistake on forum, blaming developer for it.

3. Profit.

Peekachu99 · April 2019

I mean, all you have to do is eat the cake this year, which is awesome.

The whole point of events is to get you to log in every day. If you could hoard tickets from previous events there would no longer be any incentive to do the current ones.

Most items cost 10 tickets and we are supposed to have just enough to buy them and then farm new tickets. By making the limit 12 instead of 10 we are guaranteed to never lose any tickets while trying to get our 10th ticket.
We could have 9 tickets for example and then get 3 on one day (during the dungeon event). With 10 as the limit we would lose 2 tickets that way, with 12 we get them all.

tmbrinks · April 2019

Reading comprehension is a struggle, isn't it?

All aspects of these have been clearly spelled out in news posts from ZoS, they've been spelled out in in-game notifications, information about the events.

Somebody in another thread said that there were 3 separate DAYS of choices that lead to this "overflow" The day you hit "10" tickets (could have bought something), the day you hit "12" tickets (could have bought something) and the day you were on "12" tickets (before using the cake, could have bought something)

Stop blaming ZoS, or other people, for your lack of awareness.

So your definition of all the time is once every 5 days? Wait until you hear about the daily login rewards.
