✭✭✭✭✭I really see it being varied, based on opponents.
I do hope they have a group finder seperate from a self made group.
Like 2 stam NBs and a bow sorc and a healthplar may not do well against a coordinated group with team speak lmfao.0 -

they said the Q system will prefer matching premades v premades and pugs v pugs, but just like all matchmaking pvp systems if the qs go long people will get matched regardless of group size or solo q.
...which is why i desperately need a pvp guild ATM.
i recently started playing again after along time off b/c i've wanted BGs since the game came out.
unfortunatley i'm completely lost with the current state of CP pvp on console, and i cant really get my footing as of yet b/c of lack of gear/ good build.
-Still got 2 months tho. Hopin to find some people to help me get up to snuff. i live for arena pvp in other mmos.Edited by HeathenDeacon on 8 April 2017 19:440 -
Hatoreehanzo✭✭✭If anyone is on AD that is worth their salt in very small coordinated farming groups, hit me up on PSN. Always looking for more talent.0 -

Have a plan for each match type 0 -
D0ntevenL1ft✭✭✭✭✭CTF getting chained/rooted/fossilized to a MagDK; Sorc mobility will play a strong part. Domination sitting beside templars and tanks after cap. All classes hopefully will have a strong roll in each situation (HOPE). Although the "unkillables" will have to be fixed or i can see none of it being much fun.
If anyone does want to get a small practice group together send a PM! Im DC N/A PS4.Edited by D0ntevenL1ft on 12 April 2017 00:270 -
WeylandLabs✭✭✭✭✭@Strider_Roshin I have a build for every match already, we will be able to quick slot gear before the match starts. So to answer your question yes i do. I suggest ppl stop thinking its going to be all about killing. Utility builds for ctf and dom will be OP.. So i will be ready at launch date, hour 1.0

Why use a DK when I can bring a warden and a sorc. Sorc has encase which cost less and better than warden and have way better survivability than a light armor DK.Warden has a AOE major defile ability Not ultimate. A warden can give the entire group major toughness And major ward and resolve.Plus a AOE ultimate that gives major protection to follow you. General curious why bring a DK now to BG?Why bring a Magdk over a Magic Warden?D0ntevenL1ft wrote: »Shokasegambit1 wrote: »@Strider_Roshin I have a build for every match already, we will be able to quick slot gear before the match starts.

Couple issues though...
1) double pet sorcs have very few skills (4 slots for pets)
2) pets are all over the place when attacking enemies
3) if the pets are killed, costs a lot of resources and time to resummon them
4) if pets are dead, the sorcs is pretty much dead.... lol
Other than that, they MIGHT be annoying at most0 -

✭Mags sorcs and negate bubbles are gonna be super strong in battlegrounds. Especially with objective games like capture the flag and domination.1 -

For awhile there it seemed like every one was forgetting Negate...you're not killing the healers without it very easily. Good to keep in mind roll dodge now granting root immunity as well.0 -

Yeah negate is really strong. A lot of people die because of being rooted or stunned inside a negate.0 -

I'm just taking sorcs in general. I'm capture the flag, if you're against 4 sorcs and you don't have a magicka character with shields and with vamp for mist than you're not getting the flags. That's going to be the only way to clear out mines.
Unblockable, stackable curse is op as hell in a good group. Cast curse, light attack and CS, mages wrath, BOOM, MAGES WRATH execute proc and dead. You can do this in live now, it's not just going to be op, it's already op. Say each curse only does 5k damage, which is terribly low for curse. That's 20k damage that can only be then 2k pet mages wrath, let's forget the cs la weave. That's 28k dmg before the 4x executes proc. That kills most builds as is. Without the execute.
The problem if the lack of counters and automatic occurrences if sorc spells. Mages wrath and morphs are op. It essentially kills anyone under 35k hp and you don't even have to do the damage to that individual to proc it.
Yes i have a problem with the way the sorc class is designed. Not the damage per say, the design.3 -

✭✭✭✭✭watching the eso live broadcast which featured battlegrounds - dang, why in the heck does the environment have to be so freaking dark and full of shadows...
i'm old - that crap ain't good for my eyes...turn the lights up please @ZOS_BrianWheeler ...
looks like the rules to each game are pretty simplistic enough...can't wait PVP Campaigns Section: Playstation NA and EU (Gray Host) - This Must be the Place0 -

I wish I could hit "agree" twice lol1 -
Reefo✭✭✭There's a new set which when you apply a taunt they do 100% more damage to you and 50% less damage to all other players. This will be good on and orgnum scales troll king tank. The rest of the group can have much more dot rotations and maybe lose 1 or 2 self protection healing skills and focus more offensive.1 -

I agree, but only to an extent. In battlegrounds it will be the role of a tank to grab flags in capture the flag, and holding a capture point in domination. If they take 100% more damage, the second they get hit with a stun or run out of stamina they are gonna get owned. Remember there is no CP in battlegrounds. And on top of that there is a debuff for flag carriers, the longer they hold the flag the stronger the debut gets.0 -

I hear-tell blazeplar is pretty good at doing that1 -

✭✭✭✭Best 4 man setup, imo:
1 Magplar- support, heals, destro ult(trans+troll king+X)
1 mSorc - single target burst + destro
1 Stam warden - spammable aoe defile and big time burst damage
1 Stam sorc - aoe execute proc chance, negate battery
Edit: Have both your stam builds running widowmaker and those procs + destro ults+ cleave damage from hurricane/curse/DBoS/shards will cover all your actual aoe needs, this allows you to build for insane single target burst, your cleave damage for aoe pressure and double widow procs for aoe burst.
Your stam sorc and magplar should be in heavy and guarding your stam warden and mag sorc.
