ESO pvp is GREAT.. (Read more to find out why)
After creating so many threads suggesting improvements or pointing out things we dislike to the pvp in ESO, figure it was only right to try to highlight some of the great things about ESO pvp..
Lets try to keep adding to the list below, feel free to chime in and I'll update the post if we get enough traction.. I'll start...
1) You can pvp non-stop for hours if you choose to without having to wait for an annoying que time...
2) You can form group parties sizes that are unheard of in other modern day mmos.
3) Army vs Army pvp... I've never seen such large fights go on that are actually pretty intense.
4) Positioning REALLY matters, many of the real world war tactics actually translate to in game success... (The Art of War ftw..)
5) The ability to go from range to melee with a click of a button (wep swap) or from healer to dps etc.. No other game that I've played offers a role switch in actual pvp conditions.

The combat itself is amazing.
Tactics and organization matter (though I worry AoE caps are eroding this.)
The zone is beautiful.
I could go on.
8.)
The everyone can stealth mechanic is absolutely awesome.

Virtually any kind of PvP experience can be had in Cyrodiil. Strategy, tactics, coordination, positioning, morale all play a huge part. It is an environment that can give life to any form of amazing circumnstance and escalate into full blown epic battles. Where adventuring is as much fun as doing your part for your Alliance. This kind of PvP also greatly promotes cooperation, socialization and development of a loyal/brotherly sentiment. And the best part is that we can expect it to improve with time.

YuccaPalm✭✭✭Yup you can PvP non stop unless u dont get the infinite loading screen bug. Im riding more around or doing PvWall instead of fighting actual players of my lvl. Most of the time i cant even do PvP because the most crowded campagn on eu ist pretty much empty in the middle of the night.0 -
apterous✭✭✭can't pvp nonstop in low pop campaign where your alliance owns everything and enemy rarely does anything.0 -

gudSoul ShrivenI've been having fun. I'm a casual player, generally run a few quests a day after work in PvE. Then I'll head to AvA and run a scout quest or something. If we're hitting a keep or defending it, I'll head that way, maybe toss a heal out or get wiped(level 34).
It's accessible, the zone is fantastic, personal tactics matter.
Good hunting out there.
