That's because you're not a PvP player.

The problem is that ZOS is acting like their intention is to make vengeance the only PvP option in Cyrodiil just like they made 2 team BG's the only option.

The current Cyrodiil isn't bringing any new players to PvP either. On the contrary, even with drastically reduced pop caps GH isn't pop locked most of the time, BR is barely kicking and the other two campaigns are basically dead. It's been quite some time I didn't see PvPers complaining about queue lenghts. The last WSM saw the lowest participation ever, and I'm pretty sure PvEers got out as soon as they got their tickets from a single scouting quest, while before they used to hang around for much longer, be it in towns or in pugs.

ZOS is acting like their intention is to develop a new mode while saying they are just testing some performance fixes.

Vengeance haters are acting like the current Cyrodiil is so broken that there's nothing else to do but to scrap it entirely.

At least on Pact EU, all the PvP guilds have fallen apart and there's only 1 active one taking in new players. Back in 2016 there were still more than three so you had to pick and choose. Around 2022-ish there were 2. Now there's 1 and it's not exactly brimming with players.

I tried out ESO because of the PvP, I played over a thousand hours because of it. But as server performance and combat balance got worse, my breaks got longer then I just stopped because the PvP is just a shell. No-proc was just tedious and a half-baked effort that didn't make performance any better.

I've said it a bajillion times, so I'll keep it short, but Vengeance 2 was poplocked into the evening until the last day. I know this because I only learned about it when it had two days left in the test lmao. And it was so good, I've been thirsting and regularly lurking on the forums for the next one.

Vengeance is a taste of the awesome open world warfare that was advertised, current Cyrodiil is just sad, small, and underpopulated even when maxed out.
