Night Market feels bad

Eurymachos · May 17

I am so close to just being done with the Night Market.

I've spent the last few weeks both being in and leading groups killing bosses in the districts. I've been through each dungeon two or three times helping people, teaching mechanics and being taught. I cleared the Opulent Ordeal recently with the help of excellent raid leads and team members.

Now I have to do the dungeons again even though I've done them several times. Now I have to do some of the argent bosses again, even though I've done them many times. This feels bad.

I'm wondering how to get four weeks of group organisation together in time for my next OO run next week. Then a guildie asks in chat if anyone wants to help with "the skitterring dungeon". Great, I know I need all the keys from the dungeon bosses. Then I start swearing. I can't tell from the UI whether or not I have access to "the skitterring dungeon". It's just the wall of faces and keys. Some of the tooltips mention a district name, but some of them don't.

I want to play the game. I want to help my guildies. The game won't let me. This is just not right.

Feels bad alright. It's already getting harder and harder to find groups. It's still ok, for now, on the weekends, but during the week it's already slowing way down. And I can tell you why.

The Night Market is just a group version of Infinite Archive. It's meant to be a forever grind with almost no unique rewards once you have the relics and house.

I have the golden pursuit done and 10k favor, so I'm done with the Night Market now. I didn't do the dungeons or trial and I don't feel like I'm missing anything. Back to PvP for me. ...until they take that away too.

IT WAS TOO EASY LOL

i didnt mind the content, but the whole thing with the keys has been very annoying, especially when your trying to get a group of 12 together for a preformed trial

hopefully next night market they just make the keys a one and done unlock, i dont mind needing to get the keys in the first place, but having to regrind for them constantly is just annoying, especially when stuff like the trial needs more coordination than "throw together a random pug group"

The next iteration of the NM needs to remove the pre requisites and the arbitrary rules to moving around, resurrecting, grouping and sharing quests. This content is not fun with all the roadblocks and rules.

I just hope they add more cool drops like the group repair kit, new sets to the drop table (was cool to collect full briarheart, but next event I hope theres new sets to collect), maybe change dungeons/trial somehow? Or add new trial?

The key mechanic is definitely the biggest pain point and the one I've seen most discussed, so I hope they actually address it in the next iteration.

would be great to get stats from ZOS on NM participation and achievement progress.
due to my timezone, i could never find any groups and just gave up..

I cleared 2 groups of mobs solo then got hit so hard the client crashed lol

I really wanted the guild banker but will survive without it.. Happy for those that were able to participate.

And yet, even as a solo player it is not that difficult to reach 5000 favor to get the bank, especially with multiple characters.
With every character you can do the daily side quests in every district (you die, you become a ghost, you do part of the quest, repeat) which give 40 favor each, and the easy speedrace in The Parch which give 75 favor.

Where are your Guild Masters and their Officers? They should be out there with their tanks and you shouldn't feel this way. I will be tanking it right up to the very end for the Realm, not just my Guilds and friends. It doesn't take long at all to get the keys or do any of these things if youve got a friendly tank and a healer.
