    Not all of us can play 24/7 to get the rewards.

    Why is it [snip]? So next time K-Mart has a Blue Light special, are you going to say you can't go shopping at K-Mart everyday and it's [snip]?

    Also you can buy tickets for a measly two dollars and fifty cents (or approximate to it) just in case you missed a day or few.

    So what are we complaining about? Oh you are saying events should never be held because many people can't play ever day?

    There are no K-Marts left near me. :( I haz a sad.

    Taking stealth away from the Bosmer is like taking magic away from the Altmer, making Nords allergic to mead, or making Orcs pretty.

    Ignore them, they are one of those entitled ppl who wants everything free. They fail to realize eso needs money to expand.

    ESO makes plenty of money but that is the issue, the money this game makes is not reinvested, most of it goes to some fat cat at the top and into other games.

    Compared to other games like wow, no mans sky, the amount of content this game gets pales in comparison...and yet Blizzard does it with 15 bucks a month with only part of the playerbase paying that and Hello Games does it for the price of the game PERIOD. They don't charge fees for server, or anything and have given 3 years of updates for free.

    Well since Jester's event the forums randomly exploded in angst and rage how long events are lasting and how unnecessary it was for any and all events, no matter if pve or pvp to last longer then a week or two ...

    Careful for what ya wish for, ya just might get it.

    Why am I absolutely NOT surprised that people whined to nerf events.

    Because youre not getting the whole picture. We were going straight into another event after just finishing one. People were experiencing burnout because of it and felt like they were being pressured to complete the events or else miss out on timed offers like the berries. Or go back to the content they wanted to play.

    LOL! People complain about everything! If long because it's long, if short because it's short, if middle length, it should be longer or shorter. My God!!! They always find something to complain about.

    There are things I do. One of which is - I do NOT start Christmas until after Thanksgiving is done (this is US, as that's where I live....)

    Serious. I absolutely refuse to do anything about Christmas until I'm done with Thanksgiving - and the cleaning up thereafter. The first thing that happens after is husband strings the outdoor lights. And then - and ONLY then - do I start thinking about what I need to order for whoever.

    I absolutely DETEST retailers doing Christmas in October. Which is.... yeah, I'm just one person. But I do have my pain points, and the "moving holiday buying" forward for months is one of them.

    I get an involuntary eye twitch if I see Christmas decorations before Halloween.

    When is the event?

    https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/57075

    About halfway down it states, "Single Event Tickets will be available in the Crown Store on all platforms during the Dragon Rise event from October 3 to October 14 at 10am EDT, then again during the Witches Festival even from October 24 to November 4 at 10am EST. Event Tickets are also giftable to other players from within the Crown Store."
    If you are angry about anything in this game you are only punishing yourself.

    you dont have to participate in every event or for the full duration.... i dont care about indrik pets and have finished the dragon rise event for me on the weekend and am now eagerly waiting for the next one...

    Events could maybe spaced out a bit better...but what else do you do anyway? If i had to pick id prefer the non dlc specific events such as witches festival, new life festival etc.... i think they are just more unique, more interesting, better rewards etc...

    Killing an dragon don't take long either, its not like you have to solo it :)

    Witch festival is not an week its 12 days and 24 tickets, same as current event.
    The undaunted will be shorter as I understand


    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    You dont have to post either. But something in that brain of yours made you feel as if you just had to regurgitate this overused and tiresome comment that is made anytime someone wants to discuss events or content.
