So... Event quest: Bane of Dragons is asking us to complete 3 trials (not to be confused with 12-man trial instances). One of which is killing any dungeon boss from 'Season of Dragon' DLCs.
ANY BOSS from these dungeons.
What's happening right now in dungeon finder is many people quit right after killing the first boss leaving other party members... Which is boomer especially for newer players or people learning their own roles or in worst case - three people can leave after first boss, which causes the remaing one person left behind be automaticaly kicked from instance.

This is atrocious design and basicaly game rewards people ruining dungeon experience of others in the name of event tickets. IT SHOULD NOT WORK LIKE THIS! Why ZoS decided to make such horrible design decision? I get it. We are supposed to deep dive in Elsweyr lore, dungeons included but it feels awful when other people basicaly can leave you helpless or intentionaly prolonging your dungeon experience without any consequences or straight up leaving you alone there.

Is this supposed to work like this @ZOS_Kevin ?

    You need to do these tasks in the zone itself:
    • Kill and loot a dragon
    • Dig up a tablet near the Stitches
    • Retrieve a banner from either Orcrest or Rimmen Necropolis

    I didn't need to go through any of the Group Dungeons to complete the quest.

    Just a quick tip, read carefully through the dialogue and the Quest Journal. That way, there won't be a lot of confusion.

    If what you're saying is correct we can close topic but still. It's a lot of confusion with all this in my opnion. Naming should be chosen more carefully.

    I agree, this event is not clear, even when reading the description (thanks for that helpful tip /s). I didn't get any ticket for doing the starter quest. Very confusing compared to other events. But I did not have to run a dungeon FWIW.

    You don't get event tickets for that Holiday quest. Just a single box. Holiday Event quests have never given tickets for any event.

    Only the repeatable daily quests for the zones themselves give tickets.

    Ahh. You are correct. I think I made an assumption because there is, or has been, a "blue" quest giver at previous event outposts.

    Thanks for the clarification. :)

    There IS a bonus to the quest for killing an extra dragon and a dungeon boss, but the latter can be completed with a public dungeon boss.

    I just killed one in Orcrest as we have to pick up the banner there anyway.

    The starter quest is big pita. I never do it as the rewards are really not worth the time or effort.

    Why would anybody have to train to kill a dragon that dies the seconds it touches the ground?
