YES YES YES

My Orc is ready.
I'll take advantage of this post to let everyone know that the Morkul clan is the best clan.

Does that mean you can get 2 Maelstrom Weapons per run?

Hooray!!! Now I have even more of a reason to go back and finish stage 9

That first day, wrothgar is going to be PACKED on pc.

WALL TO WALL.

The witch festival's double xp will overlap the orsinium double rewards / double chests.

Does this mean, for that one day on PC, there will be double plunder skulls?

MyNameIsElias · November 2016

That video is innacurate, the fps is too high and didn't have atleast 1 loading screen as it showed the city.

olsborg · November 2016

Id take part in this if the rewards in orsinium was actually good, and I dont rly enjoy doing vma at all. PvP ftw. (when its not laggy)

Alanar · November 2016

I sure hope this does not mean that Wrothgar survey reports have doubled yields? That's a bit too RNG for my taste.

I duno snds like this evt isnt 4 u then ...

nimander99 · November 2016

Hmmmm, maybe I should just start not buying dlc, keep my sub active, then 1 year later get everything that was on offer the first time through for$7 bucks....

Hope it entices folks to buy the dlc though, gl ZoS.

Oh yeah, I'm still not clear on the cancel membership and get offered a free month... Should I do that?

Rouven · November 2016

Is the cave bear in the bundle the same as the one in the crown store right now?

That was pretty much the point of the post. Errr...

Preyfar · November 2016

I swore I was done with VMA... but now...

I hate you so much, ZOS. XD I mean that in a good way. I think.

Yinmaigao · November 2016

Scrub post:Scrub opinion:
I think they would get more mileage out of this if normal dropped a weapon and vet dropped 2.

Beardimus · November 2016

So happy about this, love these type of events and the Interest they draw to zones that have gone quiet.

Orsinium saved the game for me, I was disheartened after a dabble in PvP and doing this zone 100% thru got my attention back, so happy to go back there.

Plus my first job back after Witches was to crack round 9 VMA, now double the chance of a decent reward couldnt be happier. Will also give my mates a reason to clear the zone like I did.

Thanks ZOS, keep em coming

DRXHarbinger · November 2016

HOLY MOYHERF*****NGJESUSTITTYCHRIST... DOUBLE WEAPONS.

ZOS you've ruined my life. Just booked a week off work ( 9 paid days left to use this year )

You're also welcome for this suggestion a long long while back.

raidentenshu_ESO · November 2016

I like this deal better.

I'll purchase 2 copies from the crown store

Destyran · November 2016

Screw double drops just give us tge original loots table of sharpened precise defending.

Destyran · November 2016

Because as far as im concerened double weapons just means double trash

Junipus · November 2016

@ZOS_GinaBruno How long does the event last for?

Acrolas · November 2016

Basically giving away content a year later without having new content of the same quality and quantity to immediately replace it is a pretty huge failure in my eyes. Hey guys, here's four game packs for 5500 crowns, but you can also buy the only one that really has any repeat play value for just 750.

The game's really starting to suck for people who jumped in at TU's launch and were excited by the quarterly game pack schedule that's now been destroyed. I can't imagine how much more it must suck for people here since the beginning, outside of a few 'lucky' Shylock-level trade guild owners.

There's no celebration here. You're now actively discouraging people from ever paying full price for anything, and that is a dangerous tactic. Perceived value is huge in digital sales, and now the game pack I paid 3000 crowns for is in the clearance bin. So I'll just wait for the clearance bin for any future game pack if you ever manage to release any.

But I guess I should thank you for so boldly stating, don't waste money on us. We're making this all up as we go along.

LeeroyGankins · November 2016

Next up : permenant VMA double drop

method__01 · November 2016

awesome

Sedrethi · November 2016

Orsinium is still my favorite out of all the DLC released so far. (Although the upcoming Vvardenfell and anything Resdayn Morrowind may change that...)

Shoutout to Bill Slavicsek, who wrote a great deal of Wrothgar, Deshaan, and Rivenspire (all three zones are favorites), to my knowledge, Brad Derrick and Rik Schaffer for their work on the beautiful music, and all of the rest of the Devs who put their hard work into the best DLC to date!

While I've been avoiding Veteran Maelstrom Arena for some time, I suppose I should take a serious crack at it this time. It'll at least help in my endeavor to collect more pieces of the Winterborn set while I'm attempting to obtain those ever-elusive Maelstrom Inferno Staves and Bows (Sharpened).

White wabbit · November 2016

Oh well looks like I'll be playing Skyrim instead

LegendaryArcher · November 2016

Still not better loot chances than before DB. By far not. And don't get me started on the fact that pre-DB a leaderboard spot pretty much guaranteed you a usable weapon as well, while right now it's just the same crap as from the chest.

Sorry, but any sane person will see that the chances to get a Sharpened Inferno or Dagger or Bow or whatever it is you need are still abysmal.

@ZOS_GinaBruno You want a real event? Make the last chest only drop Sharpened trait for 2 weeks. That would be an actual, "Wow, we actually have a realistic chance to get what we need in less than 1000 runs."

ClockworkArc · November 2016

Double vMA rewards!

I might actually step inside and try to find that sharpened Lightning Staff and Sharpened 2h now.

Panth141 · November 2016

@Junipus

'This event will conclude on Monday, November 21st at 10am EST, so be sure to join in and take advantage of the festivities while you can. We'll see you in Orsinium next week, adventurers! '

Shad0wfire99 · November 2016

Sweet. 2 Charged Maelstrom Mauls at once.

Mettaricana · November 2016

Great double everything whats the catch?

Reduced refine chances for gold tempers.
Double charged or powered maelstrom weps
Double not pulling pages from dailies
