Keep boss.

one of the most interesting part of pvp in other MMO, one example i remember is Lord of The Rings Online, is the existence of a Keep Boss.
flipping a keep to your Alliance is not only by killing some mere NPC, or standing around on a flag, but to kill the master of the keep.
now, however land the killing blow, that's what the keep will belong to.
so yes, it's very possible to have a raid working down on a boss for 10 min, but then a solo stealth char land a big hit and voila, keep completely turned (or stay the same).
I'm thinking like one of the 10m health boss from 4-man dungeon? not enough? trial boss?

✭✭✭✭✭I'm somewhat intrigued by the idea of a boss at some keeps. Might make things a bit more interesting than just standing on flags and possibly enable pvdoor keeps to have a bit more time to allow defenders to show up.
Tying the flip to the person that lands the killing blow would be a terrible mechanic though.0 -

✭✭On the MMO Aion, there was an NPC race that would spawn randomly at player owned keeps, usually at the more dominant faction's keeps. This help keep a bit of balance, and added an interesting random dynamic to the campaign. They were legitimately tough to beat, not like the current ESO ones.
Having something similar in Cyrodiil would be a cool concept. A dolmen spawns above a keep, enemies spawn from it, trial boss strength enemies among them.
I would understand if many people wouldn't like this, but a) would help stop nightcapping and b) would be an interesting new dynamic on a sometimes stale map.Edited by Elong on 1 May 2019 01:402 -

yes.
and if no one taking the keep for too long, npc keep can take over by doing sieges themselves.August Palatine Davadin Bloodstrake - Nord Dragon Knight - PC NA - Gray Host

To be fair, and not saying you, 80% of keep takes seem to be pvdoor lately. 1 or 2 defenders is basically pvdoor. Agreed pvp is the most fun, it could be something different having npc take keeps. It won't happen though, zos couldn't.Edited by Elong on 1 May 2019 01:590 -

✭✭✭✭✭No thank you. Even more PVE Dolmen grinders would come to Cyrodiil to PVE. So of course ZOS is going to do it.1 -

sticking one of those walking sewer boss in the keep flag room would at least slow down zergs and/or pvdoor small group in middle of night.

i wish keeps not taken-able by a small group.
i wish keep really truly is HARD to get unless u have a big group. that's the point.
i know we're all vestige of the gods and goes toe-to-toe with Molag Bal, but it really is stupid when I can have a group of 4, catapult/ballistas outer and inner, and kill 4-5 NPC and can flip a keep.

Yes! I'm OK with having the guards... well... tougher. That's all I'm asking really. Have the 4-5 NPC around the flags 300% of their health, and hit 100% harder, and I'll delete this thread.

As for your arguments I see no reason why a small group of badass, experienced PvPers shouldn't be able to take a keep by themselves. Even nightcapping isn't an issue for me since it's more AP for my side when we take back our castles.0 -

small group of badass experienced PvP are fine and dandy, but in an empty server, 3 or 4 low CP can simply catapult 2 walls with loads of sieges and kill a handful of WEAK NPCS...... to flip a big keep.

S0 your promoting zerging then , that's what most of us what to avoid these days
yes and no, i suppose.
people joining zergs is a given. take my suggestion or not, it's a fact. no matter what kind of change ZOS put in, a zerg will arise.
my suggestion is a way to make zerg life harder by making keep harder to take. can 4-man experienced veteran players team tackle hard-mode vDLC content? yes, with lots of coordination and skills. so i'm NOT promoting zerg. a "boss" in a keep does not necessarily means u need a zerg to pull off.
but if u ARE a zerg, i'm hoping it'll buy enough time to reduce PvDoor and have defenders scrambling to the keep to make the fight a LOT more enjoyable than "we're coming! oh... it's done. it's flipped and repaired. carry on to other..."August Palatine Davadin Bloodstrake - Nord Dragon Knight - PC NA - Gray Host

I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).

smee_z✭✭✭While having a keep boss is interesting but if the AI is the same as the NPCs inside keeps, then there's really nothing much of a difference.
All ZOS needs to do is SMARTEN THE AI OF THE NPCS inside and outside the keep.
1st that they could do is if literally you can see the NPC, the NPC should also be able to see you from a distance, pursue and engage you. You are only seen by NPCs if you are "in range", what a joke. The guards roaming the outside keep perimeter just pass by as you siege the keep. LMAO!
2nd. When the guards engage an enemy it should show in the map like what normally gets shown when there is a fight anywhere in Cyrodiil. This way, the keeps would not just be sitting ducks that when it lits up it's already too late to get there and defend.

Games are meant to be played.
Back in Auriel's Bow 1.0, I have thought that the best way to handicap a faction with the HUGE pop advantage is to temporarily disable their grouping functionality and their ability to fight in 3rd person point of view! Let's see if these do not even up the odds.2 -

✭✭✭✭small group of badass experienced PvP are fine and dandy, but in an empty server, 3 or 4 low CP can simply catapult 2 walls with loads of sieges and kill a handful of WEAK NPCS...... to flip a big keep.
Really? That's terrible. Low CP shouldn't be allowed to group up and take keeps. Especially folks outside primetime, or people playing on less populated servers.

well they can, but it shouldn't be easy.
folks outside primetime can pick a bigger campaign. its busy 24/7.
less populated campaign? thats why we'll only have 2 soon!August Palatine Davadin Bloodstrake - Nord Dragon Knight - PC NA - Gray Host
