I'm basically doing just over the bare minimum- a deleve and a world boss daily. Seeing the loot table didn't make me see any point doing any more.

Got a purple Leyawin blueprint day 1 from the gold box, was very happy with that. Since then it's just been Ivory Bridgade motifs I doubt are worth more then 10k each and one day my gold box dropped a purple treasure as its "rare" reward.

A friend did mail me a gold statue- the same one you can get with event tickets, I guess he got it from a loot box.

    I play until get 1 black fin motif, it has a 20 hour cooldown and is not guaranteed. But you usually get 1 per day. This is not event related, so I do this anyway.
    If I have time like on weekends, I continue until I get a blue or purple furnishing plan.

    If I have more time, I continue to collect Ivory Brigade Clasp used to craft Leyawiin furniture. This is in so far event related because of double rewards.

    The rest for me is not worth doing the event.
    Got 1 statue on xbox EU and 1 on NA, this was nice, the rest is nothing special. I mean, who needs 3 or more large leyawiin beds?

    I have seen on PTS, that the upcoming daedric event is just a combination of 2 others (Summerset and clockwork/vvaedenfell), and will just offer what we have already, like slagtown diver skin or the fabricant pet.
    In addition, the sets that will drop like mad tinkerer or unfathomable darkness have become quite unpopular meanwhile, as they scale with your max damage now, which is a heavy nerf in most cases.

    So I get somewhat tired of the events, I wish they would have more interesting rewards.

    Furniture blueprints goes really well 👌🏻, but rates for the ivory brigade's motif so low... I mean I got one page (gauntlets) after a week doing dailies back in BW release and now I got another one page which is also a gauntlets! 😭

    I'm doing a single daily just for the tickets.

    Don't care about motifs, but got a lead for the Kothringi Tidal Canoe on day 4, so I'm very happy :D

    Still waiting to get the gold statue but done nicely so far, doing about 3 or 4 different characters a day.

    So, does the timer for motifs for both styles? or do they have their own?
    If I open a box and get Ivory Brigade, can I then keep opening until a Black Fin turns up, or does the timer count for both styles?
    Filling my inventory with boxes, currently.

    I've only done one WB quest daily, gotten about 8 or 9 motifs, set pieces, etc. Today I did one WB and a delve. The rewards just aren't very good. All I want are the event tickets.

    both work separately.

    When ivory brigade was more expensive, I continued dailies after getting black fin, until ivory brigade dropped, too. Usually within the next 6 boxes.

    Motifs have their own timers. Also you can get them from purple boxes even when you already have reciewed them from daily reward boxes recently.

    Got a mix of stuff - it does actually feel like the got the balance right for once. They've not had so many drops that people can't give stuff away but at the same time I've got an interesting collection of stuff and leads.
    Too many toons not enough time

    I'm doing pretty well in one of these events for a change. Been getting quite a few recipes, furniture, armour etc... I've also got all but one part for the Voriplasm pet in the yellow boxes.

    I pretty much just do the dailes in Blackwood, then go do the other dailies in other zones to improve the rapport with Mirri. Then go back to the normal routine of playing with my lower level character/s.

    I’m moving home throughout October, so not playing very much at the moment, just logging on, completing the Blackwood dailies, then logging off again .. so I can carry on packing, driving, unpacking, driving, packing, driving, unpacking....

    27 years of making a home .. 31 Groundhog Days of moving it all :s

    Anyway, enough chat, I have to drive & unpack another part of my life again...

    Started off strong, but since then it’s been a bunch of nothing. I am mostly after furniture and furniture plans, but it just feels like a lot of disappointment.

    Thank you very much :) Silly me, I was only looking in the patch notes from the day pts went live - so thanks :)


    Also, I really don't like that the motifs are on timers too. And it explains why I haven't seen that many this event. So much content is on 20-hour timers, and it makes it feel cumbersome to do the things I want to do, because the game schedule is so rigid. I prefer the midnight resets.

    I only have 3 Ancient Akaviri pages left to find leads for. Lots of blackwood treasure maps dropped and are cheap on traders now.

    I really don't play the game for the loots or collecting sets. As I really don't have a lot of time to play the game, I'm fine with crafted sets. I do have all 18 characters active, however; but, most of the time I usually just log in and do writ dailies with my main and go through some zone dailies and just frolicking around.

    So, in times of an event such as this, I would log in whenever I can and take each of the 18 toons to do whatever it is needed to get the event tickets for the day. As for this event, I would take each toon every different time I am able to log in and do the Blackwood bounties for the event tickets and unlocking the pathfinder for each toon. Whatever loot and set pieces, I just deconstruct them.

    I've gotten a few green furnishing plans that I might use one day. Other than that it's been pretty bland.

    Edited for needing more coffee to use words properly lol

    Nothing much here, but I have a long-standing breakdown with the RNG. Even from opening probably around 20 reward coffers I haven't had a lead for the canoe.

    I've been enjoying the 30k plunder for 30 min work in VRG, as well as all the double drops from there. I've had a few purple furnishing plans and completed the daily quest motifs. I've also got a stack of RG coffers I'm opening one of daily for the Sul Xan motif drops so that's going great too. Yeah event's going nicely.

    I had enough tickets from the Wrothgar Event (didn't bother with the Imperial city or Craglorn stuff) to get the last part of the senche-raht reskin. Underwhelming.

    Had a few motif pages. Why on earth are they on a timer?
    So they raised the floor and lowered the ceiling. Except the ceiling has spikes in it now and the floor is also lava.

    As with every event, I did pretty well the first four days of the event, and since then, poorly.

    The first few days, I consistently got the "guaranteed" motif from the gold box, as well as some nice furnishing and blueprint drops. Purple boxes from harvesting nodes and chests were also pretty common.

    Since Monday, it's nothing but vendor trash even from the gold boxes, and I can spend hours harvesting and opening chests without a single purple box. This is how it works for me in basically every event, to the point that I have wondered whether it's actually pure RNG, or whether they have set a certain total limit on how many boxes will drop during the event and it's front-loaded/ at some point they just run out.

    Yep yep, first few days was a flurry of furnishings, plans and some motifs. I got real excited and went hard farming quests.

    Now it's all gear and trash.

    Mostly running for tickets and to fill out the sticker book on Blackwood gear. Motifs are nice, but not good enough to actively seek them out.

    There should be a guaranteed motif in the gold coffers? I got none so far :/ . In fact, the gold coffers I've gotten only contained treasures, and - if I'm lucky - set pieces.
