Not only have I not gotten tickets yesterday after more than one world boss kill yesterday. (Even when I did in fact get loot at all.) I managed to spend most of the day farming kills for tickets and did not get any.3 -
Na0cho✭✭✭If the box’s drop from all mobs go to a spot with a lot of mobs round em up burn em down repeat.
Just like farming zombies to level.
Everyone keeps blaming zos and monetization, but you don’t need these rewards.
They are literally just aesthetic. If you are bothered that much don’t participate.
If you really WANT another lame memento or pet, then put in the work or pay the money.
I’m convinced these forums are the reason every patch now is focused on story and lore and less on gameplay and mechanics.
But it’s cool, here’s another collectible pet you’ll walk around with for a week or two.2 -

It's not about "needing" something, it's about being honest to your customers. This pet and memento were advertised as something you can earn during the event, but it turns out that you have to buy extra tickets from crown store to do so. Any business has to make profits, and I don't blame ZOS for selling things in crown store. But manipulating people into buying the missing parts of their event rewards is a shady tactic.Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason

People keep saying this, but I see no reason why anyone would pay for these minor prizes. Let alone that it's some sort of "OMG GOTTA PAY, GOTTA GET IT NOW! YES!" prize. It's only a 'cash grab' if there's demand for it.

Kahnak✭✭✭✭✭People have been complaining about not being able to buy more things with the tickets they have - ZOS added the pet/memento items to the impresario.
People have been complaining that they can't get loot from bosses because people are killing them to fast or their computers can't handle the strain with 50 players all using abilities in the same place - ZOS changed the prerequisite to any monster at all to spread out player concentration.
People have been complaining that they've got a bunch of useless items in their inventory that they can't sell and are just taking up inventory space - ZOS makes the fragments into collectibles.
ZOS is giving you people what you're asking for and now you're complaining because it's not the exact way you feel like it should be. There is plenty of time and there are plenty of tickets being provided for you to get everything out of the event if you participate. If ZOS was really that concerned about making money, they would have simply put the voriplasm pet in the crown store and forgone the whole fragment thing altogether - it's obvious people really want it.Edited by Kahnak on February 22, 2020 3:00PMTombstone Reads: "Forgot to get good"8 -

this is an mmo which attracts some odd sort of people that will pay thousands and thousands a year to the game because it is the only thing they have in life.
look at all the reports of parents going to jail because they basically abandoned their kids to play a game or people dying because they cant even bother to get up to eat or go to the bathroom

Infixo✭✭Summary up to date. 4 strongboxes (3 + 1 extra found). 1 pet fragment, 1 memento fragment. 2 boxes with worthless items. Literally. I just got a strongbox with trophies worth of 350 gold. It was so disgusting, even looking at it.
Tl;dr very disappointing event so far.6 -

You realize that there are people that got the pet on the first day of the event, right? I'll concede that it may just be fantastic RNG, but you've obviously not spent 10 hours a day grinding or you wouldn't be here - you'd probably have the pet, too.Edited by Kahnak on February 22, 2020 3:46PMTombstone Reads: "Forgot to get good"0 -

100% chance from world bosses
So not true
I'm currently 3/3 once a day so yes, so very true. Don't misinform people because you'd rather kill swamp jellies.
1) Your anecdotal evidence does not counter that even the devs said it's not a 100% droprate from WBs.
2) Only the top 12 damage dealers gets anything at all from a WB. Considering that 30+ people camp them less than half will get anything at all, and healers and tanks have zero chance of anything. So even if it was a 100% it wouldn't work for a lot of people.
1) It's not anecdotal, you even admit to it in your part 2 XD. Either way I've seen the devs not properly communicate things during every event. This is no different
2) Again it is 100% for the 12 people in the loot table. If you do not get to loot it that doesnt mean it isnt 100% drop rate, it means you werent included in the loot at all.
3) You dont have to play as a tank or a healer, it's not an excuse for overland content especially when there's "30+" people waiting on it.1 -

2) Are you talking about the first looting of the day? Because I've killed several world bosses today, and I did not get a strongbox from any of them, even though I had loot. I had already gotten my tickets from a random mob.
How I've gone about it is, I just run around and kill mobs until I get my tickets. Then I go and do the WB and delve dailies.
I've gotten one of each pet piece so far. I was running in a group this morning and one of my guildies actually got an additional strongbox.
Since I'll be at 10 tickets tomorrow, I'll start buying pet parts from the vendor, as I don't need anything else from her, and I'll try to trade any doubles I get with guildies.The Moot Councillor0 -

✭All the bosses everywhere in Murkmire are dead.
And there is a million year respawn timer.
SIGH, ZOS. Why can't you play your own game to see how bad this is?4 -
BackStabeth✭✭✭✭✭You can't call it a casual game, and then create content that has drop rates that would require people to play 16 hours a day and still not obtain the parts for pets or momentos.
This is what happens when game mechanics are driven by over monetization. ESO makes a lot of money, it's one of the most successful MMOs. And yet, ZoS is metaphorically reaching into your pocket and when there are no pennies left, fishing around for the lent.
It's exactly this type of thing that is going to cause me to leave ESO and look for another game. And since the is the case, I'm not spending any money on ESO because I know I am going to leave eventually. I don't want to, I happen to enjoy the game but there is far too much frustration coded into the game with intent, so that ZoS can offer a way out by paying money.
When the game developers code frustration into a game on purpose so you spend more money I have to ask myself this question. If my own intent is to enjoy my free time, why would I play a game that writes code into the game that is meant to cause frustration and aggravation?13 -

✭This event is bad if you want any of the collectables. Pages are not guaranteed in your first box. Pages are not tradable. Subsequent drops of boxes are very low.
very player unfriendly event.9 -
Brandathorbel✭✭✭✭✭In reading some of these responses I don't think people understand the purpose of these events.
A big part of it is to get people to log back on that left, get engaged in the game again, and resubscribe.
Logging back on and seeing not only has Zos not changed but they got worse, all it is going to do is make people never come back.
if you put in a reasonable amount of time, all event specific rewards should be attainable by everyone. That is the whole point. but it is impossible to get all these rewards without buying tickets.
so, think of it from a business standpoint.
have event where you dont have to spend 10 hours a day grinding for the rewards and get returning players back into the game and make more money
or make bad decisions on the event show returning players that they are worse than before and have them never come back
which one is a smart business decision and which one is a stupid business decision.5 -

Sure you can. "Must collect everything!" isn't really a casual position. And if you're only after one of the two things (pet or memento), there's plenty of boxes & tickets just from the first daily one - no need for "16 hours a day".Edited by Kiralyn2000 on February 22, 2020 5:34PM2 -

Yes. And the problem is that game devs know about that and use strategies that are specifically tailored for taking advantage of those types of people. This is, in my opinion, unacceptable.
For anyone interested in these tactics, there's this infamous video. It's about mobile games, but a lot of AAA devs these days are trying to implement f2p schemes into their games.

To be fair, ZOS is not too bad compared to some other companies, but stuff like these tickets is concerning nonetheless.

"Yes. And the problem is that game devs know about that and use strategies that are specifically tailored for taking advantage of those types of people. This is, in my opinion, unacceptable."
You're not taking advantage of people who willingly pay money for things in game. You are providing a service. No one is being tricked into spending money.
"For anyone interested in these tactics, there's this infamous video. It's about mobile games, but a lot of AAA devs these days are trying to implement f2p schemes into their games."
This game is not a f2p game, nor is it a mobile game.
"And if the news article says that I can earn this pet, indrik berries and memento, then I expect to be able to do that without additional payments."
If the news article didn't say, "You will be provided enough tickets to purchase all of these items in-game during the event" then you have unrealistic expectations. You still have the ability to earn those items in-game. The fact that you can't get everything that you wanted out of the event doesn't make that an untrue statement.
"Especially when you already have to pay to access the event."
You don't have to pay to access this event - it comes with the subscription. Additionally, Murkmire was given away as a log in reward, so even people who are not currently subscribed can still have access to the event without having to resubscribe.Edited by Kahnak on February 22, 2020 6:09PMTombstone Reads: "Forgot to get good"1 -

People have been complaining that they can't get loot from bosses because people are killing them to fast or their computers can't handle the strain with 50 players all using abilities in the same place - ZOS changed the prerequisite to any monster at all to spread out player concentration.
People have been complaining that they've got a bunch of useless items in their inventory that they can't sell and are just taking up inventory space - ZOS makes the fragments into collectibles.
ZOS is giving you people what you're asking for and now you're complaining because it's not the exact way you feel like it should be. There is plenty of time and there are plenty of tickets being provided for you to get everything out of the event if you participate. If ZOS was really that concerned about making money, they would have simply put the voriplasm pet in the crown store and forgone the whole fragment thing altogether - it's obvious people really want it.
There is absolutely not enough tickets or strongboxes to get box items even if you grind 10 hours a day.
You realize that there are people that got the pet on the first day of the event, right? I'll concede that it may just be fantastic RNG, but you've obviously not spent 10 hours a day grinding or you wouldn't be here - you'd probably have the pet, too.
And there are people that have killed 100s of things and got no extra boxes at allBeta tester November 20139
