    Depends if there are Players around. Most of the World Events listed, outside of Dolmens and Mini's require 3/4 to 8 players to complete.

    Having said that, if there is enough player activity, I like all the World Events except for Bastion Nymics. I did 2 or 3 of those, did not enjoy any part of the activity.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    All the others are basically the same thing. Nymic isn't great content, but its better than dolmens, geysers, mirrormoor, harrowstorms, etc.

    The worst of the bunch? Volcanic vents. Can't stand Druid Olivya's whiny voice

    I'm surprised nobody seems to like Vents. I would have thought they'd be more popular. Then again, it's like my third fave too lol. Dragons are the most fun of the hard events imo. So, maybe others share that opinion?

    Horrowstorms are so much fun when you can get at least 1 other person there, not worth the time to solo imo

    Dragons are the same and an extremely close second

    Dolmens are far too easy, geysers and vents are just a mid in-between of Dolmens and horrowstorms, oblivion portals are far too red and like running through a tunnel for me, incursions are a bit too spread out but I want to put them as third best for me and I have honestly still have not done a nymic.

    Harrowstorms
    I like harrowstorms, dragons, and the mirrors. Everything else I either don't remember (so I assume they bored me) or I do remember them and they are dead easy. Harrowstorms are probably my ultimate favorite, though, as they are a good difficulty for a fun challenge when soloing. (Dragons will just chomp my head off and oneshot me and mirrors are fine except I find it annoying to have to go track down the three bosses and kill them to start the event). Dark anchors are by far my least favorite (of the ones I remember). Far too easy to be interesting imo

    One of the guilds I'm in on PC/NA actually has an event called Draggin' Ass Wednesdays where we just all get together an farm dragons! One of the reasons I joined the guild lol.

    ... on PS/EU there is sometimes a guild chasing Dragons in the evening, don't know which one 🤔, but yesterday (Monday) my friend and I rode after them over hill and dale. The good thing about it was that they all stayed together and waited for each other before they rode off. It was great fun and it was all over at 10pm, guess people had to work next day (me too).

    Yes.
    I don't dislike Vents, it's just that I like dragons more.
    The only World Event I avoid is Bastion Nymic.

      Since I, unfortunately, don't own Gold Coast yet (tough keeping up with a 7:1 currency exchange) I can't say what Mirrormoor Incursions are so, though I kinda like Harrowstorms I'll stick with Bastion Nymic for their increased difficulty.

      Their bad side is having to collect the Seekers' goo to enter.

      I would have voted Volcanic Vents if the question was about our "favourite" event. But since it's specifically worded "enjoy the most" things change.

      Volcanic Vents are quite boring at the start but get good when the Boss spawns; however they have the (big IMO) advantage over Harrowstorms of the beautiful scenery, both in High Isle and Galen. I would really be happy if more people would run them "daily". Going solo the rewards are not worth the time/effort.

      Also, since I love frosty things anything fire is my enemy XD I definitely prefer to deal with these kind of enemies over those from Harrowstorms, visually...

      (Edit: see my previous comment for info on why I voted Harrowstorms)

      dragons! for the loot. i just wish they would do like other games and scale wb's etc to the amount of players hitting them. when there's an event involving dragons, you can be there as the thing lands and sometimes not get a hit in because there are so many ppl. when there's no event, it's sometimes impossible to get enough ppl together to bring one down

      Mirrormoor Incursions
      Mirrormoor Incursions can be fast but so can be dragons depending on player count, which also my other go-to and easy to get since I am in Elsweyr all the time. Dolmens I'll drop in if I see one about to be active or see some people fighting on one, not particularly fond of Geysers or Harrowstorms due to the latter's need for a good amount of players to deal with both mobs, mini-boss mobs and the pikes themselves.

      Volcano vents are fairly fun with the right number of players as well.

      Dolmens (Dark Anchors)
      I like dolmens and vents the most. Dolmens are easier, so they get my vote. I don’t mind oblivion portals and nymics.

      Harrowstorms, dragons, and the new mirrormoor events are absolutely unenjoyable to me.

      For sure. It’s petty, but the silly voiceover during the vents is dreadful. Come to think of it, much of the High Isle expansion felt lazy.

      Mirrormoor Incursions
      I really like the Mirrormoor incursions, but the invulnerability phases are really annoying. I'm getting really tired of that mechanics. It's even on delve bosses, now (Nonungalo)!
      And the people waiting at the center pad of Mirrormore Incursions for others to kill the three side-bosses are annoying. Occasionally I notice that someone is doing that because they don't *know* about the 3 side bosses, and once they find out, they help. But those who wait... grrrr.... but that's true on all the incursions. People wait 'til the last hit.

      I would like dragons and harrowstorms more if there were ever people killing them except during events. Geysers are just annoying, waves and waves of pointless adds.

      I'll happily never go into another Bastion Nymic. Making them instanced, and require pre-killing of Seekers, was a huge mistake, I think. I'll happily join in on any of the others (including geysers) if I'm riding by and see it actively being fought. But that's not an option for Nymics.

      Good point. Honestly, were it not for the miserable invulnerability phases, the Mirrormoor Incursions would’ve been a pers Mal favorite.

      All this love for harrowstorms but I never see anyone doing them.

      TBF most of the time I'm in PvP, and when I'm not I'm probably catching up on story, not wandering around doing world events (of any kind, not just Harrowstorms). Plus no telling whether the population of the forums that responded to this poll is actually representative of the in-game population haha, would be surprised if 14% of the game's population liked Harrowstorms, considering a couple years back, it took a good amount persuading during an event to get some guildies to venture into Skyrim to do them with me instead of dolmens :)

      Dang, where are all you Harrowstorm lovers when I need to do one. I never see anyone doing them outside of an event. LOL.

      I like the vents, though agree that the running commentary is annoying when you're doing them back to back, because they're self contained, challenging without being ridiculous and there's no invulnerable phases (I think one of the Big Bosses has one but it's easily ended).
