The Field Lane for this event has been turned into the Lucky Lane, which grants a random keyword to creatures summoned into it. Summon the right creature at the right time and victory could be yours! Entry in the Lucky Gauntlet costs one (1) Event Ticket or 150 Gold, with up to three runs allowed.
The Lucky Gauntlet begins Friday, April 16 at 12pm ET and closes at 12pm ET on Monday, April 19. Events in The Elder Scrolls: Legends change regularly, so check in often to see what new challenges await!

I will ask our guests what they have been working on in the world of TES! This can be game play, wiki work, discord things, anything relevant to UESP/TES that you’ve been working on the past couple weeks / when you were last on the show.

Surprisingly not much! Been a long week, so haven’t done much. Been doing crafting dailies, and joined some new prog groups that will be starting this week...so super excited about that! 
Joined the NA PC peeps for thursday runs...made 30+ CP points just by running dungeons! Was good fun. :)
