Erollisi Day
this wiki
![]() Erollisi Marr |
Overview
Edit
Erollisi Day is an annual Live Event held in honor and celebration of Erollisi Marr , the Norrathian Goddess of Love and the Hunt. This event occurs around the same time real world holiday, Valentine's Day , but runs for almost 2 weeks.
To check the exact dates, log into the game and click the EQ2 button in the bottom right of your screen and choose Calendar from the list of options that opens. Keep in mind that the start date and end of (most) events is midnight PST, due to the location of the main office of Daybreak .
This event first appeared in 2005. Some quests are NOT repeatable, but they may unlock the ability to buy some rewards from holiday merchants. Rewards from retired quests may appear on holiday merchants too, so always check there or look closely at the rewards for the holiday themed race. Most quests are set up in a series, so be aware that to do newly added quests each year, it is highly likely you need to complete older quests first.
Unlike Frostfell , which has quests primarily in a special zone, quests for this event are often found all over the world. You will find many of the quests in The City of Freeport or Qeynos Province District (Qeynos Harbor). Because the event honors the goddess of love and her temple is found within, many quests are centered around New Halas . Look for collections items and roses to pick up on your travels too!
Check your mail for a holiday-themed coin to spend and some hints about where you'll find all of the quests. New characters will want to begin with Find 'em a Find, Catch 'em a Catch! , which unlocks most of the other quests.

Items and Recipes
Edit
New items to purchase using holiday currency have been added to the merchant, Douglas. Steven is selling one new recipe book (already added to the list below). See the pages for these merchants or visit them when the event is live to look at their offerings.
TLE Servers
Edit
The TLE (Time Locked Expansion) servers do not have all of the festivities. Instead, they have NPCs who sell the basic house items in The City of Freeport and in the Qeynos Province District .
Merchants
Edit

Pink Unicorn mount, purchased with Erollisi coin.

Examples of items purchased with standard coin currency: Pink Stained Glass Square (top) and Crimson Stained Glass Square (bottom).
Identical merchants, selling identical items, are found in both The City of Freeport near Seafarer's Roost and The Qeynos Province District , near Fish's Alehouse and Inn . See the pages for these doppelgangers to get their specific locations in each city zone.
- Items sold for holiday coins and for standard coin currency (silver, gold, etc.) are listed on the merchant pages.
The first two are true merchants, while the other non-quest giving NPCs will exchange the holiday drops (candy and/or love notes) for notes that can be stacked or more holiday coins.
- Merchants:
- Douglas - offers the majority of items of every type
- Steven - primarily sells holiday-themed recipes, but also offers a few house items
- Non-quest giving NPCs:
These NPCs will exchange Erollisi Day Hard Candy and Love Notes (dropped by mobs during the event). You need a minimum of 5 candies or notes for these NPCs.
- Heartgar MacInnes - will exchange any 5 candy hearts or love notes for a stack of 5 Barbarian love notes . The Barbarian love notes can be used for crafting items from the holiday-themed recipe books; as a single stack they take up less space in your bank , any backpacks or strong boxes , and personal harvest depots or guild hall harvest depots .
- Liannya Heartswell - will trade any 5 love notes and candy hearts for the 5 of event currency, Erollisi coin . Important! Once you trade candy or notes for coin, you can not switch them back.
Currency and Seasonal Loot
Edit
There are two categories of valuable items used to either buy merchant items or craft items from the holiday recipes books.
- Erollisi coin - this currency is awarded for quests during the event. It is not heirloom, so you can also elect to sell yours or buy extra using the broker
- Erollisi Day Hard Candy and Love Notes - monsters drop a variety of items specific to this holiday while it is live. These drops, which look like candy hearts or love notes, can be used to craft items all year or they can be exchanged for more coins to purchase items from the vendors while the event is live.
- Tips and Tricks to Get the Above:
If you are trying to earn large quantities of Erollisi coins, you can get them from mobs (monsters) that con gray (names show in gray text/that are far below your level).
This is often easiest in the starting zones around like Frostfang Sea (near New Halas ) or Darklight Wood (just outside Neriak, City of Hate ). If you have more standard coin currency (gold, plat) than time, you can also buy the notes and candy using the broker .
One quest offers players a very easy way to gather several candies and notes at once. See the Heal the Pain quest page for tips and tricks.
See the Merchant section above for info about NPCs who can help you declutter your bags by creating stacks of items of various types or trading for holiday coins.
Collection
Edit
The collection can only be done once per character and it rewards the Passion Veiled Screen (a house item ).
You'll see event-specific collection items on the ground in major cities and in zones with quest givers.
Instead of the usual "shiny" (glows gold) appearance, these collectibles look like they have flower petals floating up from them. Some collection items are limited to different areas with quests. For example, you will find different collectibles in New Halas than you will in Freeport or Qeynos, so if you're having difficulty finishing, try a new location!
The members of the collection can be found in the following zones:
- Crimson Rose Petal, Cobalt Chrysanthemum Petal, and Onyx Rose Petal can be found in East Freeport , North Qeynos , and Qeynos Harbor
- Emerald Chrysanthemum Petal, Golden Rose Petal, and Velious Chrysanthemum Petal can be found in Enchanted Lands and New Halas
- Ivory Rose Petal, Royal Rose Petal, and Sunset Chrysanthemum Petal can be found in Antonica and The Commonlands
Tradeskill Recipes
Edit

Examples of Adoration building blocks from Erollisi day recipe books.

Example of an outfit, crafted from Erollisi Day recipes.
No matter which tradeskill you begin or master, any crafter can make the items in the recipe books.
- The Romantic Gifts recipes can be purchased only while Erollisi Day is live. The previous year's recipes are always offered and (typically) new recipes are added annually.
- You will also need hard candy or love notes looted from monsters to craft these items. The candy and notes are tradeable, so check the broker if you need to stock up. See the section on Currency and Seasonal Loot above for more helpful hints on getting more and trading them in for stacks.
- Unlike Frostfell, which requires special crafting stations , you can make these items all year if you stock up holiday themed materials.
- Like most holiday-themed live events , the recipes are primarily items for use in player housing and appearance gear anyone can wear.
- If you have completed the Gathering Obsession Timeline and have the Artisan's Fully Trained Pack Pony , it can be sent out to get love notes and candy for you too.
Available Recipes
Edit
These recipes are sold by Steven .
- Romantic Gifts to Craft
- Romantic Gifts to Craft II

Also The OVAL holiday-themed window was added to this recipe book after the event went live, but may not be posted on the recipe page yet. (The square and rectangle windows are Marketplace items as of 2016).
Where to Craft Items
Edit
When trying to complete Achievements for this event, sometimes figuring out which station has each type of the crafted item can be confusing. There is a pattern though and experienced crafters will notice it is similar to the pattern for crafted items seen around Frostfell .
A quick summary of the general items by stations is as follows:
- Woodworking Table - most furniture, all adoration-themed blocks, and vases with roses
- Sewing Table & Mannequin - all clothing items, like Green Formal Attire and the masks like Face of Love ; all pillows, curtains, tapestries, and rugs. For some odd reason, the couches and lounges that match the furniture made at the woodworking table
- Chemistry Table - anything house items that resembles a bottle of perfume or love potion or things one expects in a laboratory
- Stove & Keg - any food-themed decor like A Delicious Chocolate Frosted Cake
- Engraved Desk - all candles; all cordons, garlands, and hanging roses; all holiday themed decor books like Treatise of Trysts
- Work Bench - all empty vases, (non-chemistry-themed) bottles, and outdoor-themed plants, all general "kick-knacks" (small decor odds and ends), the furniture and decor with "gilded" in the name, like the Gilded Palatial Bed and Gilded Palatial Incense Burner , and the themed window.
- New player tip: these items can be crafted in any tradeskill area in a major city with player housing or in any Guild Hall that has added tradeskill tables and amenities .
Adventure Quests
Edit
The following quests are typical adventure quests that may involve a fight or two, but many are courier-style quests that require going to and from various NPCs to deliver items or have a conversation. Most of the text is quite funny!
Though they do not necessarily involve fighting, they will grant adventure experience (XP).

Races (Unlimited Repeatable)
Edit
The race is quite simple. Get the quest from the NPC, then go to the telepad to start the race. You must dismount to start the race! Zip around and gather hearts until the timer runs out. For more details, tips and ticks, plus a list of rewards, see the quest page linked below.
- Hearts a'Flutter (originally appeared in 2007, was revamped in 2014)
The races are held in two locations just outside the gates to The City of Freeport , in The Commonlands and outside the gate of Qeynos Capitol District in Antonica . Though there are two location, the rewards for both races are identical.
The prizes vary if you are fast enough to get a "huge prize" vs. anything lesser. Many of the items can be purchased from the holiday merchants, so it's wise to familiarize yourself with their offerings first.
On occasion, rewards from retired quests or quests that offer a choice may be offered as a race reward, so look at the choices carefully in case you missed and item or picked a different item elsewhere.
Romantic Titles
Edit

Retired Quests and Event History
Edit
Events and quests in this section heralded the introduction of this holiday or describe changes that were made to the quests. The info below is reatined for game history.
Old Event Announcement
Edit
"The days dedicated to Erollisi, the Goddess of Love, are here, once more! There's a need for lovers and the often infatuated to visit Lavastorm, Great Divide, and the Thundering Steppes. My prayer is that you answer this call and strengthen the ties of love throughout Norrath. Additionally, there is much to do for love in Antonica, the Commonlands, and the cities of Qeynos, Freeport, and New Halas during this celebration of all things romantic. Meanwhile, love notes and message candies hold new worth with tradeskillers, and holiday merchants in Qeynos Province District or the City of Freeport, alike."
From 2005
Edit
Premonitions introduced the coming event: The Priesthood of Erollisi is playing the plans for this year's celebration very close to the robes, so there is little information at this time. One possible hint is the sudden an unusual compulsion of creatures all over Norrath to write love notes and carry hard candies on their persons.
- 2005: Love of Ages Past , served as an easy quest for a charmed item involved tracking down a statue. The item could either be equipped or turned into a house item just like heritage quest items. The item looked like a short wand with a heart on the end and 3 arrows through the heart. When equipped, the item produces white sparkles. When placed in your house, it can be clicked on to make everyone else in the room turn and flirt with you.
From 2006
Edit
Goldie Hammerfall and Stinky asked you to gather heart-shaped essences so she could create a love potion. Reward was one of 4 candles depending on how many of each colored essence you brought back.
The quest was available from Priest Aaronolis Swornlove or Priestess Annalisa Swornlove . Oddly, Aaronolis had no clue about the festivities going on. He has continued to hang out in Antonica on the bridge to North Qeynos for the nice view.
From 2011
Edit
Priest Aaronolis Swornlove offers the quest Total Eclipse of the Heart in New Halas . You will find Aaronolis near the shrine of Erollisi. You needed to complete his previous questline ( Bouquet of Trust , Harts Full of Trust , and Sacrificial Trust ) before he will offered it to you.
Old Secret Admirer Note
Edit

Once a gift from your secret admirer, you can now complete the races to get this item.
On February 09, 2007, players began receiving in-game mail from "Your Secret Admirer" with a subject line of "Be Mine?". The letter read From 2007-2014, your mailbox would receive the following note, which was later replaced by the new version of the My Romantic Reputation quest:
-
My dearest
, - Roses are Red,
- Violets are blue
- I will be too
- If I can't have you
- Take this poem and this rose as a token of my undying affection on this Erollisi Day. Perhaps I will see you speaking with Dalron in either East Freeport or North Qeynos. Maybe we will meet chasing down Erollisi essences in Antonica or the Commonlands. I just hope to have the courage to hail you if I see you.
- Until then, know all of my love abides with you, although we have never met.
- Love,
- Your Secret Admirer
Attached to the email was a Single Red Rose , a house-placeable item.
