First off, vengeance is NOT "The WORST PvP Future of ESO". It is the vanilla version aka GH.
Not even remotely close. Vengeance is an entirely different system no one asked for, being designed and developed by the devs.
PTS Patch Notes v11.2.0
Vengeance
Loadouts are now in Vengeance. A Loadout is essentially a package...
Perks are now in Vengeance. Perks are passives to add...
A new Vengeance Inventory has been created...
Many systems have been turned back on including....
Your standard inventory is now available in Vengeance, however the same item restrictions...
The pvp community for the longest time have been begging the developers to provide new pvp content, and Vengeance is exactly that.. new content. It is an entirely different Cyrodiil map that its worth exploring. It has different set of rules in comparison to the regular GH campaign.
I actually enjoy Vengeance because I don't have to worry about getting bombed and getting zerged down by ball groups.
So you like veng because the devs refused to address pvp balance for 7+ years.. let it get way out of hand.. and then bascially took all skill away from cyro and made it a one size fits all everyone gets a prize style combat loop?
You realize this will continue to have a lower and lower pop to where you're lucky if you get one fight a night... right?
Vengeance actually fixes the PVP balance by removing sets and stack healing. There are no bombers and no ball groups during the Vengeance event. It's actually a refreshing not having to deal with either. Ball groups play a big role in lagging up the server by overloading the server. Ball groups know about this and still exploit the game just so that they can look good on their YouTube channel when they farm pugs and casual groups.
Also, not everyone has the time to test out sets and to theory craft a good PvP build.. so people are coming into Cryodill with sets that are completely garbage that they don't know... How can you have fun with that? So disabling sets gives other people the opportunity to have fun and to have a good PvP experience.
Can you please link the data showing ball groups cause the lag? Also the data showing what their exploit is? We could end vengeance forever if you could provide that data to ZOS since they don't have it. Also, accusing people of exploitation without any proof is dumb.
How am I supposed to obtain this data you're asking me to get, showing ball groups causing the lag? Only the developers have this data. There is no way that regular players like us can get it unless you can explain to me how, without risking my account being banned. It's simple programming. The server cannot handle the excessive amount of proc'ing and rigorous recasting of skills.
When I get near a ball group, my game starts to lag out. My ability to cast skills becomes limited... swapping bars starts to become difficult for me... which then causes me not to self-heal because Vigors is on my second bar.
And there is PLENTY of proof that ballgroups are causing lag to the server... Just ask around.

Then again lets have the same in pve. I want to participate trials too, but wont be taken by any serious trial guild unless i hit a 140k dps with certain sets.
Fix that
Nothing is stopping you from participating in trials. Get yourself an Arcanist and go to ESOlogs.com and find out what the current meta for gear/skills,etc. And yeah... if you wanna participate in speed runs or no death runs... yeah, these kinds of groups are gonna be looking for the best. Nothing is stopping you from using group finder to find a regular vet trial. I used to do it all the time, and that's how I got most of my trial skins from using the group finder.
Nothing is preventing you or anyone else from being successful in PvP either. Everyone already has the same resources to work with when it comes to both PvE and PvP. So we don't need vengeance because it's a solution in search of a problem, right?
Okay... so where do casual players who want to get their feet wet go to find good quality PvP builds? Can they go to ESOLOGS to find out what ball groups are using? Or perhaps find out what the solo players are using these days? Please do not link me to some YouTube channel. Content creators publish out crappy builds... trust me I know from personal experience.
