The Elder Scrolls Online The Season of the Dragon Celebration guide – rewards, quests, and location

Elder Scrolls Online’s The Season of the Dragon Celebration event sends players to Elsweyr to slay dragons. The beasts threaten the home of the Khajiit, and if you bring them down, you can earn loot, coin, and event tickets. However, getting to Elsweyr and knowing where to go can take time and effort. Here’s how to start the Season of the Dragon Celebration and what’ll you earn along the way.

How to start The Season of the Dragon Celebration

To start the event, open the Crown Store and search under featured or events. Either one will include the event quest Bane of Dragons. Choosing and accepting the quest will mark it as your primary goal for your quest journal. Remember that only players with the Elsweyr, Dragonhold, Wrathstone, or Scalebreaker DLCs may participate in the event. Once you have the quest, you need to head to Northern Elsweyr and find Samara, the leader of The Elsweyr Dragon Defense Force. They are standing just outside the Impresario tent in Rimmen. You can travel to the region by finding a portal at a different Impresario tent, using a Wayshrine, or teleporting to another player.

How to complete The Bane of Dragons quest

The Bane of Dragons is a quest that acts as an introduction to the event. You need to collect a tablet of dragon-slaying, a Dragon Defense Force banner, and a dragon heart to complete the quest. The banner can be found in Rimmen Necropolis to the southwest of Rimmen. To reach it, you’ll need to take the road near the Anequina Aqueduct and the Hakoshae Wayshrine. Once you reach the shrine, take the road north until you find the necropolis. The banner can be found at the end of the dungeon.

Finding the dragon-slaying tablet is tricky as well. Once you’ve grabbed the banner, you’ll want to head southwest. It’s a bit of a journey, and the exact location isn’t simple to find. Once you’ve reached the location called The Stitches, you’re in the general area. A blue quest bubble should appear on the map, and you’ll need to dig in a certain area outside of The Stitches to find the tablet.

After collecting the tablet, make your way up to the top of The Stitches. The path is difficult to find, but as long as you stick to the path along the southern cliffside, you’ll reach it. Talk to Apprentice Tav to continue. He’ll have a quiz about dragons for you that asks three questions. The answer to the first is flying, the second response is Akatosh, and the third is Atronachs.

Once you are through with those two tasks, you’ll need to find a dragon. They appear every so often on the map in Elsweyr, and it’s recommended you join a large group to bring one down. Loot the dragon heart from the dragon and return to Samara for a Regular Elsweyr Reward Box.
