Zeal of Zenithar Event Feedback

When Zeals of Zenithar was published on the PTS, the players noted their feedback on the changes.

1.) Capping the rewards on crafting jobs for the event for the GOD OF CRAFTING was not really a logical change.
2.) Distributing the caches in fighting areas such as dragons etc. was even less logical
3.) Giving more pages than there are days of the event with a daily cooldown per page, forces pay2obtain
4.) Writing wrong information in the event announcement such as "Each time you defeat ..." because ZOS has included a hidden chest cooldown (not present in 2022!)

It really is a pain to watch how ZOS refused all feedback from PTS [snip]

    very weird to believe anybody would purposefully crash the servers of their own game

    I know what you are writing about. The event is meh. The rewards are not worth doing the event for. First morning the Event area was jam packed. 2nd day 5 people there counting me. My guild doesn't want to do any of the event since the rewards are not worth their time. ZOS definitely destroyed the event in my opinion.

    I was wondering what happened. Because I am notorious for not fully reading directions in games... I just barrelled in and expected it to work like last year. Wow disappointment.

    Why on earth did ZOS change it???

    I won't really be doing the event now because meh. Well that and the whole not being able to log in thing but you know. At least I don't feel bad about that now.

    Because they rather spend resources changing and messing up stuff we like, instead of fixing performance and bugs.

    Sadly they do little to dispel this notion.

    More or less what my 'guide' contained.

    Not a whole lot else to say really. Very disappointing. :(

    ZOS can you plz extend the event because of the long login queues atm? I'm not able to catch up on the event ticket as a working person, who simply doesn't have time to sit here 2 hours to wait for the login screen to pop up, that's usually my time that I have after work to be able to play the game. :/

    Some positive feedback :)

    I've very much enjoyed the double inspiration during this event: I recently created 7 new alt characters, and was leveling them up in all 7 crafts, and this sometimes (depending on your leveling up method) involves a master crafter creating a very large number of armor, weapon, jewelry and glyph items, for the new crafters to deconstruct. The double inspiration meant I only had to create half the items for the same progress, so I'm very happy about that! :)

    My biggest complain would be the fact that there are more motif pages than the event has days and you can only get one page per day. Why ? Why limit it to one page per day ? It makes grind boxes kinda pointless. On top of that there is regular event stuff you have to buy (fragments) so even assuming you had 10+ event tickets from the last event and you won't have any duplicate motifs - you still absolutely HAVE TO either buy additional event tickets for cash or maybe buy some motif pages from guild traders. But here is the problem. On PC there are addons that were supposed to make searching for stuff easier. But the result is that almost every trader sells the motif at fixed price. Finding the motif page at reasonable price is impossible. I play this game for long time so I have some spare gold, but even for me paying more than 20-30K for motif page is insane. And what about new players ? Those who barely have 10K gold in total ? Idk, I don't like the recent trends in ESO events as it screams "MONETISATION !".

    Feeling a bit underwhelmed compared to last year.

    Was looking forward to an actual crafting event, but sadly it's got little to do with that.

    Got worried noticing that the first 'Bakes Apples' event-quest got a glitch so it doesn't even show a marker.

    Probably won't be able to collect all style pages this time around, better luck next year I guess. Meh.

    I don't really have an opinion one way or the other. I get it that some people love it and some hate it but speaking personally - I don't care much about Style pages, Motifs and Event Keys.

    On my 7 characters, I do my daily writs and then if I have time I will do the Event Daily - and I find the easiest way for me is to scry. Then if I still have time I'll do the endeavours and a bit of questing.

    My biggest gripe is that they've added more pages to collect this time around, if they hadn't, I wouldn't mind that they nerfed master writs so much, because it would still be doable to get everything while the event lasts.
