Get creative. Additions/changes to events or things that you think would be fun/interesting.

(Please try to keep this fun and or imaginative and leave performance based complaints/issues out of the thread.) There have been other threads in the past with different suggestions such as fishing, but event fatigue can be real and a new subtle change to an event quest with some degree of difficulty in completing might offer a new reward.

1. I'd love to have an addition in the mudball event to give extra rewards for pelting Stuga before she can speak. (Is it even possible? reward?)
2. Changing fishing so that you might hook a miniboss that catches ppl fishing while watching netflix unaware.
3. Adding an ability into the thieves guild skill line that lets you snare other players who are attempting to steal your treasure chest while you are fighting the mobs near it to get to it. (I could think of something harsher but a simple snare would be satisfying).
I could go on, but even the simple addition of some new paintings for my houses would be awesome. What would you like to see? (Maybe someone can come up with something that they could actually do in a future update/expansion)

    It would be nice to have an actual event vs just incentivizing what we already do in game. There are really only a couple stand alone events such as the New Life Festival but even then it is just a couple handfuls of quests.

    Event bosses would be a great addition. Ones worthy of being instanced like trials and have three difficulty modes like trials. Ofc rewards to go along with it. Maybe even a wandering boss or two that would be to challenging for even the best skilled players to take solo.

    While the NLF and Jester's Festival are more stand alone than most having elements that bring players together like well developed bosses makes sense in an MMORPG event.

    I think the key thing in those events is to keep the rewards relatively insignificant (like they are now) in order to avoid event fatigue, and to add elements of surprise in order to counter repetitiveness. Of course this "unexpected" should not be just yet another boss or monster to fight (who cares about fighting monsters in ESO ... ? )

    Just some ideas from the top of my head :

    - In the castle charm challenge, or the foot stomp quest, we would randomly be dancing the gangnam style (or the macarena, or whatever famous) instead of our regular emotes.
    - Wherever we have to go during those quests, a "famous" NPC would randomly appear (some pop star singing their most famous tune, or an NPC looking like the devs we know (Rich, Gina, Finn..), or some celebrity of some sort
    - We could during those quests/events stumble randomly upon easter eggs related to geek/pop/gaming culture (other games, TV shows, Tolkien stuff, etc... )
    - During snwo bear plunge we would randomly drown / freeze and find a treasure at the bottom of the water.
    - Etc...

    Those random happenings would add an element of surprise (provided they're frequent enough for people to be encouraged to take their chance by doing the quests, but also rare enough that people aren't tempted to "collect" them... ).
