YetAnotherLinuxUser✭✭✭✭i have gotten a qualifying random normal dungeon a time or two but i've been playiing on my twink account trying to level up their skills and as it has no eso+ i have no ability to play the event on it. not stoppping my character development for an event, esp after people posted their complaints about weak rewards, Developing craftiung skills on those twink toons matters more to me honestly.0

YetAnotherLinuxUser✭✭✭✭also i bought galen on sale and collected all the overland gear sets and esp gourmand to use with my twink toons along with orders wrath. That roaming preserver of galen wb is fun to chase down and lure to wayshrine where people can join in easily. She doesnt break off attacks but chases you down!. more wb like that please!
since my twink account couldnt gift my main buying galen was the next best option. proved fruitful too.Edited by YetAnotherLinuxUser on November 27, 2023 4:27PM0 -

✭✭✭Suffering from event fatigue... I get my tickets, do the daily endeavours, and do a quick EA run to complete arc 2, then log off. So no, not playing this event.
PS: Blackwood is my least favorite zone in the game. It needs thousands more trees, and there is too much empty space everywhere. Resource nodes are also located too far from eachother. There is no point in being in this zone at all.Edited by Sarannah on November 27, 2023 4:34PM1 -

✭✭✭✭✭I've been enjoying the event, although my daily participation has varied from minimal to extensive depending on other events that were going on in real life related to Thanksgiving and a visit from out-of-state family members.
The world bosses in these zones are not my favorites, because I can't solo them except for maybe one or two in Blackwood, but they usually go down very quickly-- too quickly, in my opinion-- with up to a dozen or more massively-overpowered players melting the bosses in a few seconds or less, although the delves are okay. But my favorite activity during this event has been shutting down the Oblivion portals-- solo, if possible, although I rarely get a chance to solo the final fight because someone inevitably comes along during the fight due to how long it takes me to solo it. Most of the time other players are already there fighting the boss or waiting for it to spawn, but at certain times of the night or day-- depending on the server-- the population is low enough that I might get the opportunity to solo all or most of the Oblivion portal.
As for rewards, I've found the drops from the purple and golden event coffers, as well as the double reward coffers from the zone dailies, to be excellent during this event-- subject to RNG, of course, but I've gotten all of the new style pages on PC EU, and lack only one page on PC NA, which I hope to get today by trading duplicate pages for it. I've also been getting the motif pages that drop from the daily reward coffers, so that's been very nice as well. This has been a definite improvement over my mostly-rotten luck with RNG during some of the other recent events.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!1 -
Zodiarkslayer✭✭✭✭✭
✭I used the event to complete stuff I haven't gotten around to when the chapter and DLC came out.
30 Havocrels, 30 Dailies in Deadlands, that kinda stuff.
The best rewards for me are actually the Treasure Maps. I got so many, that I could almost fill up my Ancient Daedric and Akaviri Crafting Motifs on my own. Almost ...If anyone here says: OH! But, PVP! I swear I'll ...
Thank you for the valuable input and respectfully recommend to discuss that aspect of ESO on the PVP forum.2 -
Destai✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭I have. I needed the stickerbook on the dungeons, so I was able to get that completed in a few days. Used the zone dailies to get my daily tickets for the rest of the event. Had to use them to get the new style page because I wasn't getting it through drops.
It's been a good event, but I'm a little tired of events at this point. Unless, there's an attractive style page or new indrik, I don't think I'll be participating.Edited by Destai on November 27, 2023 5:32PM1 -

ZOS_IcymodGreetings,
This thread has been moved to the Events & Contests section, as it is better suited there.
Thank you for your understanding.

✭✭✭No, I didn't participate, as I usually don't in events which are held in a particular zone.
Zerging WBs and doing dailies in overcrowded zones simply isn't my sort of fun.
I hope tho, those which participated enjoyed the event.Never get between a cat and it's candy!

Overland difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including One Tamriel, an overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver & Gold as a "you think you do but you don't" - tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game. I'm bored of dungeons, I'm bored of trials; make a personal difficulty slider for overland. It's not that hard.1 -

YffresTrill✭✭✭✭Today was the last day, so I went to Blackwood and did Plokun's quest, since it's unique.
Other than that, nah. I avoid events in general because crowding and large groups set me on edge, and the rewards are almost always of no interest to me.Edited by YffresTrill on November 27, 2023 10:33PM@ Yffre'sTrill - PC/EU (No Steam)

Ah damn, guess I could have taken the quest a bit slower then.

valenwood_vegan✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Did enough to get tickets and some of the new style pages, but I don't really enjoy these events unless they're in a brand new zone... ie: there's nothing left for me to do in Blackwood / Deadlands. Rewards mostly feel really meh. But I get that this type of event can be fun and useful for someone who is new the game or new to the DLC.
With event fatigue being a real thing, I enjoy not feeling like I have to participate in these zone events all that much.1 -

AuroranGoldenEagle✭✭✭✭Doing only the daily delve to get my tickets.
From this event, I've gotten the translucent jelly pet in a grab bag, the 2nd set of fragments for the bear, and through a mix of tickets and coffers, managed to get the whole Bosmer armor set.
Pretty happy!You have discovered the thirty-seventh Sermon of Vivec, which is a bending of the light, long past the chronicles of the Hortator who wore inconstant faces and ruled however they would, until apocalypse.1 -
LannStone✭✭✭✭Did the daily Fargrave and sometimes the daily Blackwood on my second account - good chance to level up a character - rewards are sort of secondary bonus, not trying for anything in particular, but I did get a lot of new motifs on that account1 -

Depending on time of day, there might not be a lot of players zerging the WBs when you're on, especially in Blackwood since there are six WBs. The Deadlands is nearly always a zerg, since there are only two WBs, each with three different daily quests associated with it, so regardless of which WB daily you end up with it's highly likely that several other players will be on at the same time needing to kill the same WB as you.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!1 -

Thanks for trying to help. It's not necessary tho, as I'm not fearing of missing out anything by not participating in an event.
On the contrary: I very much enjoy the relative peace in other popular zones during these events.Edited by Braffin on November 29, 2023 3:21AMNever get between a cat and it's candy!
