Tips for Sigil events
When Sigils events unlock at Level 5, you will earn half the Sigils listed below and the rewards gems, potions etc., will be related to your level. As you level up the Sigil rewards will increase to the full values (below) from Level 45.
At level 45 Grand Soul Gems will be the gem rewards and this will change to Glorious Soul Gems at Level 60. Some people hold their character below level 60, to keep getting Grand Soul Gems, which is great if you can resist the urge to hit the level up button, or accidentally bump it. Grand Souls Gems are much better rewards than any level up rewards, but this is difficult to maintain.
Sigils are generally regarded as the most important in game currency, more valuable than gold or green gems, so these events should be prioritised. The objective is to gain as many Sigils as possible from each event. Some events are easy, you can take on all enemies and look through secret areas etc without too much trouble. Some events are hard, so don’t feel you need to beat every enemy or collect every chest, the Sigils are more valuable and simply running past an enemy or secret area may be the smarter option.
As general rule you should use the gear the event advises, resistant armour to certain elements and the weapon recommendations etc. If you don’t have the right gear, make it for the event, once you have reached level 45, you should start to collect suitable event gear and temper them up.
One exception, is that often a Stamina weapon can be a better choice than the recommended, as it removes all the heavy ability attacks from the enemy and reduces the damage you take. Once you reach level 45 you should aim to have a Stamina based version of each weapon type (cleaving, slashing and bashing).
Whilst use RE above level 5 is not recommended in the arena, using rings with boosts to RE giving you RE 9 or 10 can be vey useful in events where the enemies damage is all elemental.
Another useful tip is to use increased speed for events where all you required damage is a attack type (bashing, slashing or cleaving). Adding Warlock's ring, using a celerity weapon or light weapon can help kill your opponents much more quickly.
Health potions and resurrection scrolls should be saved for Sigil events and not wasted on Jobs or The Abyss.
YouTube Videos
Zuhn'halvic videos are run throughs of entire event, using warrior style builds and text is in French
Yoshisan videos are from a mage style perspective, show gear used and often have an English commentary. The objective is for new videos to be added in the future to cover all events.
Gretchen the Formidable/The Black Knight videos show weapons and gear, these tend to focus on the fastest way to do the events, and how to avoid enemies rather than chests and resources. These will be added daily until the full set of events are available.

Raise your weapon to prevent their spell attacks, as their block drops swing two or three times and use strike abilities.
Frostbite spell works well.
Ward (blizzard armour if you have it) staggering bash with nullify shield.
No need for repairs between levels.
From BigEars
2 Hander Tips
Tough event without a shield.
Use Warlock’s ring if you have it, hit goblins with nullify weapon as soon as you can to stop their second spell. Don’t try and use RE, they will LB you too quickly.
You can avoid the first room with 4 enemies completely by running along the left wall to the silver chest, wait there until the wandering Necro is away from the left wall and run through, hugging the left wall to the far passage. Do not stop for anything or you will get caught by 3 enemies.

I chose Nullify sword or dagger as effective against necros, Exhaustion blade against all others.
Used Elven stam shield against goblins (first enemy).
Used Elven nullify shield for magicka regen against necros.
Goblin warriors deal out physical damage only, but necros require frost and lightning armor for defense.

Switch to shock armor for the Outkasts if needed, but probably not required until later levels.
No secret rooms. Some food.
From BigEars
2 Hander Tips
This is a tough event for 2H, without a shield and elemental damage only, this means PDOC, PDIA and critical hits are worthless.
Stack gauntlets and rings with shock, EDIR and EDOC as much as you can, use shock spell if you have any (Lighting Bolt, Thunderstorm, Delayed Lightning Bolt).
If you can’t see the ghosts properly turn up the brightness on your phone.
Stand at door of the second room and try and take on these 2 ghosts one at a time.

91,000 gold,
-
3 fire breath opals.
-
silver chest per level.1
Use health gear (lords mail) exhaustion mace and elven exhaustion shield.
Mercs are weak to poison also
Skeletons weak to blunt/shock.
But found Stam drain works best.
If you have a HEAVY stamina-draining build, it will actually shut them down.
Keeps them from using abilities.
Hold your weapon up to delay quick strikes then use Blizzard armour immediately.
Paralyse spell works well, or poison cloud, but skeletons are immune.
Also delayed lightning bolt very effective.
Use harrying bash level 4.
Tip from Alenor; use Ice Spike on skeletons.

The Maul of Aureal is a good choice of weapon. Don’t bother with Wall of Fire, the opponents don’t attack often, but their attacks van be very strong, so use Magika for defence, Ward and Absorb.

Long event. First enemy is skeletons.
Use slashing weapons (sword of exhaustion against skeletons and boss if you have it) (nullifying sword against outcasts) as enemies are immune to elemental attack.
Use health armour but add one shock for Outcasts. (Some outcasts also use ice spike).
RE is a must.
Silver chests in 2 secret rooms; one in cave area and another after outcast boss.

Ogres, Warlocks and a Troll at the end regens fast so timing of strike important.
Used 2 shock armour, Lords mail with health gauntlets and jewellery.
RE, Ward and poison cloud or Paralyse.
Tip from Glimmering Foxbat; use Ward with Harrying Bash (poison shield) to prevent first damaging power strike from Ogres.
Method 2 Use exhaustion weapon at first for 10 strikes (or more until you build your health back to full) to take away their stamina (doesn’t look like it’s doing anything but it is) use poison spells and bash with poison shield and then switch to Serpentstrike.
Elven poison shield for magicka regen.
All enemies took a lot of hits to go down.
Fairly short event (but seems to go on forever) with lots of food.

DRAGON:
First strategy. Use stamina weapon this prevents take off so wear full frost armour with stahlrim shield to block ice spikes and frost attack.
Second strategy, is to start with full fire armour, 2 handed with shock sword. Use RE.
Use daedric fire shield when it goes up to use fire breath attack.
As the dragon lands switch to a frost armor build and stahlrim shield to stop the ice spike. If it goes back up switch to fire protection with shield to block breath attack then when it lands repeat.
From BigEars

-
82 Sigils,
-
800+ Lumber,

Plenty of gear to collect.
Tactic: To finish troll boss and ogres quicker start with exhaustion sword, when half their health is gone switch to frost sword. No need to use exhaustion sword on goblins.

Curse of the Ayleids:
-
50 sigils,
-
208 dragon bones,
-
63,000 gold.
-
1 gold chest per level.
Nice and easy and short.
Use a mace of winter (Mephalas Teacher) and stamina or winter shield. Shield bash very effective.
Dremora dish out wall of fire. Wisp mother’s frost: 2 fire 1 frost armour (or Lords mail) with frost ring(s) and neck.
First room; 1 wisp mother, 1 Dremora and weapon stand lever to open the secret room with a Dremora.

The Spectral Forest:
-
50 sigils,
-
208 dragon bones,
-
63,000 gold.
-
1 silver chest per level.
I wore lords mail (poison resistance) 2 fire armour. ice spike, frost bite and absorb spells.
First area 3 spriggans and key to door in breakable; adjoining area 1 spriggan and silver chest.
Through door 1 spriggan, through door to final area. 2 mercs and boss merc. Switch to bash/cleave resistance armour against mercs.
Tactic; in final area skirt right side around area to kill merc and boss merc then finish off second merc.
Used baridans against all enemies. IMPORTANT (patience in this one) use shield block constantly against all enemies especially mercs.
Harrying bash works well. Blizzard armour/Ward/paralyse useful against mercs

2 Hander Tips
Use Spiderfang as poison causes the most elemental damage.
You can avoid one of the mercenaries at the end by running around the building on the right.
