Am I the only one who thought: Oh no... another event... ?

I mean, we got 1 event (Writhing Wall Event), then during that event we got another event (The Witches Festival)... and now the main event did not even ended and we are getting 3rd event... Don't you think that it is maybe oversaturated a bit ?

I mean, when I am back from work, I don't have infinite time to play. I would like to play ESO and play a type content I enjoy. Meanwhile, due to the "flood" of the events I really don't have time to play this or that story or dungeons but instead I have to grind "something".... either Writhing Wall exclusive stuff or event tickets....

I had a look at the list of activities for which you could get the golden and other coffers/rewards, and it seems doable without too much effort beyond what I'd normally do anyway. Is there nothing there that would fit in to your normal routine?

Also, 12 days so this one is a bit shorter?

This is one of my preferred events, since I enjoy the zones for the Daedric War story and I like spending time in them. I had actually forgotten this was happening, so this was a good reminder for me!

Oh no... another event

Can you please give us a break. We can handle only so much grind... ESO starts to surpass Korean MMOs in that aspect. And with the terrible drop rates you implement you offput players instead of attracting them to the game.

Hi @ZOS_Kevin! A lot of my guildies and fellow GMs have been asking whether there are double drops in the Trials in these zones, i.e. Halls of Fabrication, Asylum Sanctorium, and Cloudrest. We haven't seen anything mentioned in the article, but sometimes information gets left out of the article by mistake.

Sometimes there are double drops on every boss and sometimes just on the final boss. Or sometimes there are no additional Trial drops and just the Event boxes. Please let us know what you find out, thanks.

I'll just be doing a daily world boss and then another daily world boss for total of three tickets. That'll be the extent of my participation in the event.

Good to see that the base game has not been eclipsed or otherwise vandalised to bring this event.

Just have to recall how/where when for the ashlander dailies and the cwc crow ones....

Khajiit is ready to party all the time! The great thing about having a lot of events is, if you choose not to participate, or you can't get EVERY TICKET OFFERED you can rest assured more tickets will be available soon.

If khajiit had his way, there'd be simple events and celebrations all the time - nothing too fancy, but perhaps some zone-specific seasonal holidays ("Grahtwood Last Seed festival") that would make for a great excuse to introduce the incursion/WB/delve daily quest givers and have them give some decent loots, and exp bonuses in that zone, for folks who care about that kind of thing.

Am I reading that right? There are no furnishing plans in the reward boxes?

Cat_Sìthe · November 19

I am feeling absolutely exhausted from the Writhing Wall event. I have all sorts of mental health problems, and I further suffer terribly from FOMO. Playing Writhing Wall at the same time as the Witches Festival was torture, and being met with yet another event (when I also haven't personally caught up to the Daedric War storyline either) is making me feel like crying.

Please stop doubling up on events. I want to have fun when I play my favourite games, but this is stressing me out.

Have a look at the rewards for this next event. You won't have FOMO then.

Yep, that's when I decided not to participate.

Syldras · November 19

Those are my favorite zones in this game, and I also loved the Daedric War story (and wished that the writing would get back on that level), but honestly, I'm just tired. So I'll just do the minimum to get the event writs for the house.

Me too. Just gonna grab some tickets. I was looking forward for an extra chance for furnishing plans. But without them there is no reason for me to participate.

excited to get my third Chapel of Julianos fragment!
plus these zones are fun

Necrotech_Master · 1:00AM

personally i mostly do the bare minimum for any event in here, because theres usually not much reason to farm the events

the gold boxes/tickets are basically the only thing worth bothering for, as the extra boxes are usually full of garbage and dont even have a chance to give the new event rewards

ive been playing through every event the game has ever had, theres very few collectibles i actually need from each event, so when i cant even get a *chance* to get the new rewards in the "continue drops" (purple boxes in this case) theres little reason for me to care to farm it more
