Bonus Alliance Points and a new hat are not the only rewards you can receive during this event.

You can find Adhazabi in the Western Elsweyr Gate, Northern High Rock Gate, or Southern Morrowind Gate once you enter Cyrodiil.

On the first weekend of the event you can use Alliance points to purchase necklaces, and in the second, to purchase rings. During the event, Adhazabi Aba-daro will not accept gold as payment for these items, so put those additional Alliance Points to good use! 

Finally, from July 27th until July 31^st, you can pick up the Midyear Mayhem Crowns bundle in the Crown Store. This bundle includes three Imperial crowns celebrating the Midyear Mayhem event: the Circlet, the Coronet, and the Diadem.

WILL YOU FIGHT FOR YOUR ALLIANCE OR YOURSELF?

Whether you enjoy the large-scale sieges of the Alliance War, the more intimate street-fighting found in the Imperial City, or the fast-paced action of the Battlegrounds, the rewards for taking on your fellow players in PvP combat have never been greater. Will you earn glory on the battlefield?

"Pelinal's Midyear Boon box." Poor Pelly, his methods of mayhem will never be forgotten :D Akaviri motifs has me enthused, although I've not done much PVP. “Star-Made Knight" is likely beyond my capabilities, but damn, I want that cheev!
