Thieves Guild/Dark Brotherhood event returns July 2 - 15th

Jolipinator · June 2019

Seriously. Not even joking.

Exact same rewards. No double drops for Maw of Lorkhaj (excluding whiskers). First Onyx Indrik berry will be available.

Edit: No Midyear Mayhem this year, that is why we are getting a repeat event.

In light of our ongoing work to improve game performance and the Activity Finder, we are holding the Midyear Mayhem event until next year to ensure that the player experience is a good one. In its place, we are moving forward the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood Celebration Event, which will run from July 2 to July 15, and will give players the chance to earn the Event Tickets needed to start the Onyx Indrik mount evolution.

But why???? There are too many events already and they chose this one to duplicate?

AlgisOthal · June 2019

Where is Dungeon Event ?!
I need my Shadowrend weapon style pages :'(

rotaugen454 · June 2019

I need Orsinium event and Midyear Mayhem!

frostz417 · June 2019

I’m more irritated at the fact that they have the audacity to cancel mid year mayhem for this repetitive crap.

Fyi

Midyear Mayhem was at the beginning of the year.

kojou · June 2019

Yay, Double Defiled Whiskers drops from Maw of Lorkhaj bosses. I need those. </Sarcasm>

The only thing I enjoy out of the content is the trial, and all we get is more whiskers for it. If it wasn't for the indrik I would skip this event altogether.

They said it was a bonus one, implying it would be at usual actual mid year.

luen79rwb17_ESO · June 2019

Literally the worst choice of event to duplicate. Awful.

kristijanH · June 2019

So this time we get only 1 Berries. That means there will be either 3 more short events this season or one big one to get the other 3 Berries correct?

Starlock · June 2019

Excellent! A character I'm planning will be using Baraha's curse, so this'll make it easier to get the pieces!

TequilaFire · June 2019

I give up. :'(

maboleth · June 2019

Yay, I'm excited. I need to collect the berries... x2 or even x3 for three indriks. :O

Arciris · June 2019

Hehe this must be the Devs trolling Bosmer players

ApostateHobo · June 2019

That's just straight up mean

majulook · June 2019

Look, Look, Jingle,Jingle, Shiny keys... Trying to make players forget about game issues... Along with a Marketing attempt to sell DLC's, and maybe some ESO+...

rotaugen454 · June 2019

Pray they do not alter the deal further...

I dont understand, why call it midyear if it's beginning of year iDont understand

Vercingetorix · June 2019

Excellent PR by ZoS once again: Don't just screw over PvE players with trash performance during a limited event that hardly anything rewarding to do - make sure you screw over EVERYONE.

Seriously, if you are a PvP player, you might as well leave - ZoS has admitted that they are going to continue to ignore you for the rest of the YEAR. I promise you that in 6-7 months the server will still be trash or laughably worse somehow and your decision to leave 6 months prior will have been rewarded.

They specifically stated that it is because of in game issues that they are holding this event instead.

Because it was a bonus event, the event is usually mid year but they decided to throw a bonus one in january.

Yes...but unless we also get another ESO+ trial during the event, I'm certain that marketing is looking forward to some DLC sales.

Yeah, I'm sure they are working on stealth detection quests for the event as we speak....

There have been “in-game” issues in PVP for like years now. Never stopped them from running the event before. Heck, the group finder wasn’t working either yet they ran the random dungeon event. Mind boggling decisions these days from the devs.

Is that a problem?

For the love of..they had midyear at the beginning of the year, now that it's actually the middle of it they decide to scrap it.

Call it whatever you want I am gonna assume they screwed up and are just trying to cover their tracks.

rumple9 · June 2019

They probably cancelled mayhem because of the faction lock fail

They canceled it because of the Battlegrounds Groupfinder fail.

randomkeyhits · June 2019

Only thing that popped into mind was I'll never sell my TG and DB motif pages now.

At least its quick and easy to earn the vouchers

Edit : if they want this to feel better perhaps add wayshrines in the TG and DB bases?

There were a lot of complaints about that event because of issues with group finder. So you want them to listen to complaints to fix server issues but not listen to complaints about events not working properly?

Nicalas · June 2019

@ZOS_GinaBruno

This event announcement is an error I presume. We already had this event in March.

The correct event is Midyear Mayhem and Orsinium.

Please give us the correct event. This event is garbage. You have an entire portion of the player base waiting for their event. Delaying it for a year is a big F U to that player base. Nobody wants this RP event that we had 3 months ago.
