New Life Festival (12/19-1/1/2020)—Celebrate the end of another great year and the beginning of the new one with fun quests and mud balls. Lots of mud balls.

Unless they bring back Undaunted in-between now and the next event.

They said the Undaunted Event would come back before the end of the year, after being cancelled previously. One theory is that it will start on the 12th (this Thursday) and run until the 16th so it fills the space between the two planned events. And the Undaunted Event is always short but gives 3 tickets per day, so that would work.

But the last berry probably won't be available until the New Life festival starts on the 19th.

If the Undaunted event does come back my advice is to make sure whatever else you do you end the event with 10 tickets, so you can buy the 4th indrik berry on the 19th before going away. (New Life gives 2 tickets per day, so you could save 8, or 6 if you'll have time to play on the 20th, but I wouldn't recommend that if you can possibly avoid it because trying to juggle preparing to go away with doing events in ESO complicates both, and if there's any problems with the New Life festival you might not be able to get the tickets.)

I will be in vacation out of my country i currently have 10 tickets so i can just got my last berry in the first day

Agreed. They should start it a week early.

What do you do to deal with the repetitiveness of the same quests every year?

I guess it helps that I don't feel like I have to run every quest every day of the event on every character.

I have a lot of alts... I just figure out the amount of time I have to play in a given day (which is certainly not all day long), and then mix and match. Maybe I use a new alt that hasn't played through the festival yet. Maybe I take a few loops for crafting nodes. Maybe I send my wood elf back to visit her imaginary family in Grahtwood. Maybe I work on that fishing achievement in an icy lake, or hit a dolmen in the desert. I tend to use the quests as jumping-off points for other things I've been meaning to get around to anyway, rather than treating it as a grindfest. In other words, I don't do exactly the same sequence of events on each day of the festival. And I still manage to pick up plenty of boxes that way, and the rewards are some of my favorites outside of the Witches Festival and the anniversary event.

Please no more events for at least 3 months. Unless they do one in Craglorn with double resource drops 😜

@ZOS_GinaBruno
if new event starts tomorrow, where is NEWS ARticle about it? cant find

Americans always write dates as month-day-year. So the announcement and the second post of this topic is saying New Life will start on the 19th December, not the 12th.

There's been speculation that the Undaunted event, which was cancelled in November, will be run from the 12th - 16th, but that's just players guessing based on ZOS saying it will come back before the end of the year, there hasn't been an official date given. And at this point it's looking unlikely because we haven't had an announcement yet and even for ZOS that would be very short notice.
