Best Farms for Anniversary Jubilee Event in ESO (2025)

The Anniversary Jubilee event kicks off tomorrow, April 3, 2025, and it’s ESO’s biggest event for gold-making, rare items, and event tickets! Running until April 22, this event brings a passive 100% XP boost, tons of reward boxes, and unique farming opportunities. No double Alliance Points this year, but there’s still plenty to dive into. Here’s your guide to maximizing this massive celebration!

Event Schedule: April 3 - April 22

The Jubilee runs from April 3 at 10 a.m. EST (or 11 a.m. with daylight savings—check your timezone!) to April 22 at 10 a.m. EST. You can eat the cake for event tickets, but the 100% XP boost is passive—no cake required. That double XP lasts the whole event, making it prime time for leveling or grinding resources.

100% XP Boost: Passive Power

Unlike past events, the 100% XP boost is automatic from April 3 to April 22. No need to eat cake or use scrolls (though stacking scrolls can push it higher). Hit up dragons, world bosses, or daily quests to level fast—perfect for new characters or Champion Points.

Reward Boxes: What’s Inside?

Reward boxes drop from tons of activities: daily crafting writs, delves, world bosses, dungeons, trials, Heists, Sacraments, Battlegrounds, and more. You might face 5-8 minute cooldowns on some (like bosses), but dailies are safe bets. Loot includes crafting materials (e.g., Heartwood, mundane runes), motif chapters, furnishing recipes, style items, the new Jubilee outfit style, Jubilee Steed fragments, transmute crystals, and rare cosmetics like the True Flame Sword or Staff of Worms replica. Check specific activities below for the rarest drops!

Event Tickets: Stock Up or Gamble?

You can earn up to 60 event tickets by eating cake daily and completing activities. Options include the new Jubilee outfit style (looks dope but might not resell high), Jubilee Steed fragments, or gambling on rare style items. Some cosmetics (e.g., True Flame Sword) are worth millions, others pennies—math’s pending, but with 60 tickets, it’s tempting to roll the dice. Save some for later events too!

Best Farming Spots: Gold and Glory

Here’s where to farm reward boxes and resources: Dragons (Elsweyr) have high HP (12M) but are active during the event, dropping boxes, Dragon Blood Bile (sells well), and quick-sell treasures—check the linked video for unlock info. Bangkorai World Boss Triangle offers three bosses in a loop—great if no cooldowns, less so with 5-8 minute waits; starter zones (e.g., Glenumbra) are easier alternatives. Skingrad Dailies give new furnishings from Update 45 plus reward boxes—pre-do writs tonight and turn in tomorrow after 10 a.m. EST. Mirkmire Incursions provide gold, quick-sell items, and new furnishings—a solid option. PVP (Cyrodiil/Battlegrounds) drops Rewards of the Worthy and dailies boxes—repair walls or heal allies for extra AP. Cooldowns TBD—check tomorrow’s video update for tested routes!

Rare Cosmetics: Achievement Boosts

Special items drop from specific sources: True Flame Sword (fishing, best with Master Angler), Staff of Worms replica (dolmens), Barbarous Helmet/Sonar replicas (world bosses/vfel), and O-V Staff (Abyssal Geysers). They’re annual exclusives—miss them now, wait a year!

Quick Tips: Prep Tonight

Pre-do daily writs, West Weald quests, or Skingrad missions tonight. Turn them in tomorrow after the event starts (10 or 11 a.m. EST—confirm your timezone). Even baby characters can farm easy bosses with the event crowd. Don’t sleep on this!

Final Thoughts: A Goldmine Event

The Anniversary Jubilee is a gold-making, XP-grinding, rare-item bonanza. Farm dragons, hit dailies, or dip into PVP—there’s something for everyone. With 60 tickets and passive double XP, it’s a can’t-miss week in ESO. Get ready for tomorrow!
