If they don't continue to provide a non crown store way for players who already have pieces of the indriks started, then I will be extremely unhappy.

I have 2 full sets of berries awaiting feathers. I will not be able to earn enough feathers to complete my indriks since I already purchased my missing berries thinking those were the only parts going away forever. After all, the information given about the event on the actual ESO website only mentioned that the berries were ending. We should not have to hunt around on outside sites (Twitter in this case) just to learn that the feathers are also not coming back.

Please reconsider allowing the impresserio to return selling old feathers/berries that players still need to complete their already started indriks. It took a lot of time to earn all those berries. I am sure I am not the only person with partially completed indriks who can't afford to purchase crowns to buy event tickers.

In my opinion, your best bet would be to buy 4 group repair kits for a total of 8 tickets, and finish the event with 12 tickets.

Then, as soon as the next event begins, immediately spend 10 of those tickets on whatever's coming next, before you earn any additional tickets.

I've got a few days to decide but this sounds like what I will do.

I've already got all evolved indriks, a nascent indrik, all indrik pets, the snowball buddy pet, and all of the outfit style pages for this event, so the only things I could possibly spend my tickets on now are the feathers or the group repair kits.

If I were to go for the feathers, I wouldn't be able to buy them all, and I think they would be a waste of tickets anyway because I'm not expecting ZOS to convert them into whatever's coming next. The only reason for anyone to buy feathers now is if they need them for completing a nascent indrik, and they're hoping ZOS will provide some way in the future for players to complete their incomplete nascent indriks and incomplete evolved indriks-- or if they just like the idea of having those fragment slots filled in with feathers, even if they're utterly unusable.

So what I did was map out how many tickets I expect to have on each day of the event-- as I do during every event-- with notes to remind me of the days when I need to spend tickets, and I've worked out how many group repair kits I can buy on each of the servers I play on, as well as when to stop buying group repair tickets, to end up with exactly 12 tickets in my pocket when the event ends next week. Even though I don't have much interest in the group repair kits, I think it's a good idea to have some on hand for future occasions when I'm in a group and need to repair my armor, because it's unlikely that I'll be the only one in need of repairs, and it would be a nice gesture to repair everyone else's gear as well.

I, on the other hand, accidentally ended up with a full set of extra feathers that I can't use. (I have an evolved Nascent, AND a full set of feathers, oops.) If it were possible, I'd be more than happy to trade them to you.

One solution might be to move them out of the fragment system and unbind them, so that players can trade as needed.

I hope they do something to make indriks available in the future, ideally via feathers and berries so anyone who has partial progress can complete them.

It would be a terrible waste to have spent all this time developing this system and then stop using it after just 2 years. Not to mention how much it sucks for any new or returning player who likes them.

ZOS has stated they want players participating in all the events to get the multi-event rewards, @amapola76.

If feathers were all of a sudden tradeable, players would totally skip the events they didn't like ... and trade/buy the feathers from those events.

Yes, I'm well aware of that.

I'm not suggesting that they make ALL future fragments unbound, I'm suggesting they do that specifically for items that are no longer available from events, as the indrik feathers will be in a few days.

Whatever the next event-based collectibles are, they will almost certainly be obtained by some other fragment system, not by using the indrik feathers.

@Taleof2Cities has already pointed out in reply to your previous comment stating that Zos has stated they want players to play the events for the rewards.

That is why are not likely to unbound such items.

[snip] it doesn't discourage players from playing events to have an item available for trade THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE FROM EVENTS.

A fair solution would be to get an event ticket refund on soon to be useless feathers and berries we have collected.

Problem there is that with the 12 ticket limit, what happens when someone has leftovers that amount to more than that? I don't see them giving anyone more than 12....

Back during the anniversary event I had a weird problem where I went to buy 1 cake furnishing with tickets, the game froze and then told me I'd bought 3 of the same one. I contacted Support for a refund but because it took a while for them to respond and I hadn't wanted to miss out on other stuff in the meantime I had too many tickets for them to refund both excess cakes at once, so they refunded one then had me spend the tickets and delete the other cake, then refunded me the second lot of tickets. I assume they could do the same with players who have excess feathers or berries.

But since that's likely to be a lot of people it would probably be easier to add an option to one of the existing festival merchants to trade feathers and berries for tickets, so players can trade 1 in whenever they have space for 10 tickets and then buy something else.
