Seize Loot & Glory during the Midyear Mayhem PvP Event!

Battle in the Alliance War, Battlegrounds, and Imperial City during the Midyear Mayhem PvP event and you’ll earn bonus XP, collectibles, and more!

To Battle!

The Midyear Mayhem in-game event for Cyrodiil, the Imperial City, and the Battlegrounds begins this Thursday, January 28 at 10:00AM EST, and the fight will continue until Tuesday, February 9 at 10:00AM EST.

During this action-packed event, you can earn bonus rewards when battling your fellow players in PvP activities, including double XP and Alliance points and event-specific collectibles, Achievements, and titles. 

Here’s how you can join the fight:

1. Visit the in-game Crown Store to acquire the “Details on the Midyear Mayhem” quest
2. Travel to your Alliance War faction’s main gate in Cyrodiil using the Alliance War menu or a Battlegrounds camp outside major cities

• You are no longer required to travel to Cyrodiil to kick off the event

• If you already completed the quest last year, you won’t need to do it again

• Alliance Points gained
• XP gains for PvP player kills

Prepare for battle

The Scroll of Pelinal’s Ferocity will continue to be usable throughout the entire event, but if you happen to lose it, you can receive another from Predicant Maera or simply use the Basin of the Gore Virtuous instead.

The Alliance Breton Terrier pets

Finally, throughout the event, harvesting nodes within Cyrodiil and the Imperial City will drop double their regular resources, and the Cyrodiil merchant Adhazabi Aba-daro (also known as “The Golden”) stocks Alliance War Legendary-quality jewelry, with necklaces during the first weekend and rings during the second.

Event Tickets & Unstable Morpholiths

During the Midyear Mayhem event, you can earn up to three Event Tickets per day by completing two different PvP activities:

• Two tickets for completing any Cyrodiil or Battlegrounds daily quest
• One ticket for completing any Imperial City district daily quests

The Event Ticket timer resets at 1:00AM EDT each morning. Note that if you earn new Event Tickets over the 12-limit cap, you’ll lose them.

This Midyear Mayhem event also introduces a brand-new series of base and upgrade fragments for the year! These fragments will allow you to summon the new Unstable Morpholith pet and eventually upgrade the pet into different items throughout 2021. You can begin collecting your pet fragments by picking them up from the Impresario for Event Tickets.

Be careful when handling the Unstable Morpholith pet!

Here’s everything the Impresario will stock during the Midyear Mayhem event:

• Unstable Morpholith base fragments
• Including the Deadlands Flint, Rune-Etched Striker, and Smoldering Bloodgrass Tinder
• The first Unstable Morpholith upgrade fragment
• The Rune-Scribed Daedra Hide
• Ebonsteel Armor Outfit Style pages (can’t be traded)
• Second Legion Outfit Style pages (can’t be traded)
• Breton Terrier pet
• Midyear Grab Bags
• Containing a collectible you don’t currently have from previous Midyear Mayhem events
• Group Repair Kits

Once you have all three base fragments, you’ll be able to summon your Unstable Morpholith pet from your Collections UI. During the event, you can also collect the first upgrade fragment to eventually upgrade your Morpholith into the Deadlands Scorcher skin!
