The ESO: the Jester’s Festival Event on March 21 – April 2

The annual Jester’s Festival returns to Elder Scrolls Online beginning Thursday, March 21, at 10:00AM EDT and concluding Tuesday, April 2, at 10:00AM EDT. This lighthearted celebration offers players exceptional opportunities to accelerate character progression while collecting exclusive cosmetic items and furnishings. The festival period provides a perfect window for both new and veteran players to maximize their gaming experience through structured daily activities.

To participate in the festivities, journey to the festive pavilions situated just beyond the major cities of Ebonheart, Vulkhel Guard, and Daggerfall. These locations serve as your primary hubs for event activities and quest acquisition throughout the duration.

Upon locating a pavilion, interact with one of the three jesters who have masterfully impersonated faction leaders: Jorunn the Skald-King, Queen Ayrenn, or High King Emeric. Each offers unique questlines that contribute to your overall festival participation.

Complete the introductory quest “The Jester’s Festival” to obtain the coveted Pie of Misrule memento. This consumable grants a substantial 100% experience point bonus for two hours when activated during the event timeframe. While the pie remains usable post-festival, the valuable XP enhancement will no longer apply after the conclusion date.

Save Princess from a perniciously porky fate!

Throughout the event duration, each of your characters can accept one daily quest from every Jester stationed at the three alliance locations. This systematic approach enables completion of up to three distinct preposterous missions daily per character, providing consistent engagement opportunities.

Successfully finishing a Jester’s daily assignment rewards you with a Jester’s Festival Reward Box. These containers house various consumables, crafting recipes, valuable trade goods, and decorative housing items.

Crucially, the initial completion of each Jester’s daily quest (account-wide, not character-specific) grants a superior Jester’s Festival Stupendous Box. This premium container offers enhanced chances for exclusive festival collectibles and rare items unavailable through standard reward mechanisms.

Advanced players should note that after securing all three Stupendous Boxes daily, subsequent completions on alternate characters yield the standard Reward Box variant. Both container types undergo daily reset procedures at 2:00AM EDT, ensuring fresh acquisition opportunities each calendar day.

The Jester’s Festival Stupendous Box presents opportunities to obtain several exclusive reward categories unavailable through regular gameplay:

• Cadwell’s Kitchen Arms Style Pages

  。Arm yourself with the weapons of the rag-tag knight himself!

• Parts of New Mementos!

  。Collect the different parts for two new Mementos: the Festive Noise Maker or Jester’s Festival Joke Popper.

• Jokey Stealies

  。Valuable-but-silly items you can sell to vendors for gold.

• Runeboxes

  。Tradeable runeboxes containing last year’s Mementos: the Jester’s Scintillator and Cherry Blossom Branch.

Seasoned participants should strategically plan their character rotations. Begin with your main character to secure the three Stupendous Boxes, then utilize alternate characters to accumulate additional standard Reward Boxes throughout each event day.

Every Jester Festival Reward Box guarantees inclusion of the Jester’s Festival Pie, ensuring consistent access to this signature festival item across all your gameplay sessions.

SHARE THE FUN… WITH PIE!

While the pies obtained from Reward Boxes appear delectable, they transform into formidable projectile weapons when wielded appropriately!

Assign these confectionery missiles to your Quickbar to convert them into tools of chaotic celebration. You can launch pies at virtually any resident of Tamriel, encompassing non-player characters, city guards, and even other players. Exercise your sugary vengeance indiscriminately! Caution: Certain targets, particularly municipal guards, may express disapproval of your festive antics.

“Take that! And that! EAT IT!”

Beyond the inherent satisfaction of coating companions, adversaries, and innocent bystanders in dessert, this year introduces several new pie-centric Achievements:

• The Three Fillings War – Throw 10 Pies at players that are in a different Alliance

• The Upper Crust – Throw a pie at each of the Alliance Leaders

• More Than You Can Chew – Throw 10 Pies at Guards

• Dessert Domination – Complete the above Achievements

• Messy Business – Kill 10 players while they are covered in pie in Cyrodiil

Achievement completion yields distinctive rewards. Finishing Messy Business and The Upper Crust Achievements awards the “Empieror” and “Tin Soldier” titles respectively. Ultimately, obtaining Dessert Domination grants the Obnoxious Mute Face Paint collectible, providing permanent cosmetic customization options.

SNAG AND SPEND EVENT TICKETS

Active participation in Jester’s Festival activities earns you two Event Tickets upon initial daily quest completion each day. Throughout the event period, participants can accumulate up to 24 total tickets, providing substantial purchasing power at the Impresario merchant.

During the festival timeframe, the Impresario offers Indrik Feathers, Dawnwood Berries of Bloom, Dawnwood Berries of Budding, Dawnwood Berries of Growth, and the newly introduced Dawnwood Berries of Ripeness. This final berry completes the set required to transform your existing Nascent Indrik into the magnificent Dawnwood Indrik mount variant. To summon your enhanced Indrik companion, simply possess all four berry types within your inventory and activate any one of them.

The even-more majestic Dawnwood Indrik

When utilizing Event Tickets for purchases, meticulously verify the specific berry names before transaction completion. You require merely one specimen of each variety to facilitate your Indrik evolution. Importantly, this represents your ultimate opportunity to obtain all berries necessary for this specific transformation. Following event conclusion, the Impresario will cease offering these particular berries – ensure you capitalize on this limited availability!

For players with surplus Event Tickets this quarter, the Springtide Indrik pet becomes available for 10 Event Tickets – marking the inaugural pet Indrik accessible within the game! Furthermore, you can procure any Cadwell’s Kitchen Arms Style pages for five Event Tickets each, offering an alternative acquisition method beyond Stupendous Boxes (or simply obtain any missing pages). Both these new item categories are available through the Impresario merchant.

NEW CROWN STORE ITEMS

Concurrent with the Jester’s Festival, we’re reintroducing numerous community-favorite items including the Madcap Jester Monkey and Jester Personality alongside new additions such as the Pebble Pal (indeed, it’s a pet rock), Cadwell’s Kitchen Style pack, and an assortment of novelty stick mounts.

Capitalize on experience bonuses, accumulate Event Tickets, obtain exclusive rewards, AND blanket your foes (and allies) in scrumptious, adhesive pie—what aspect fails to delight during this Jester’s Festival? Do you intend to participate in the boisterous celebrations this year?
