A lot of people like to PvP but are sick of traveling for miles on their horses to find an enemy, get killed and have to do it all over again. We want to see Arena's where you can fast travel to and just have a nice portion of small scale PvP with friends or against friends. Hear our call! @ZOS_GinaBruno
May knowledge guide you to enlightenment

    naw man, that feature ruined wow pvp for me. it became the focus and i was just forced to run around and try not to die because the only viable thing for a preist at the time was to heal in those stupid things. it just pigeon holes classes into roles they dont want to play. and for me, run in circles trying not to die while 5 people try and kill you at once = stupid.

    Having to ride your horse and travel around is probably the worst complaint you could have about PvP right now.

    A huge open PvP zone is what was advertised. It would be nice if it actually worked as advertised though.

    Yep. Same in SWTOR. You just wind up with priority targets trying to just stay a live while their team targets the other teams priority target. Both of you in the fetal position the entire time. Then the balancing issues happen and the QQ becomes way beyond even what we have now.

    If anything, I would just support a battle ground objective based system, but certainly not arena style.

    Ooooh scenario based strike operation PvPz.


    X faction has Y asset/objective.

    Opposing factions must claim that asset or destroy that objective, or whatever.

    That'd be cool.

    arenas are a blance nightmare - they cant balance the current meta proper, arenas will destroy it entirely.

    Instanced Team Objective style gameplay would be nice... but there's a way to integrate that into the current PvP: add more objectives!

    Just fix Cyrodiil first. One broken PvP zone is more than enough.

    It's probably the only solution to the mess . It will ruin Cyrodiil but Cyrodiil is more then likely unfixable .

    -1, I prefer Lagrodiil over instanced, pre-made small scale pvp.

    Except for the horrible lag and performance issues.

    But hey, if people like hitting skills and having them not fire while the other faction ninjas a scroll because no one can attack, then randomly crashing, good for them.

    If there was a quarter acre 2 on 2 battle arena, there would be lag, knowing this company. You would get 999+ ping while searching your inventory.

    Others and I have been pushing for an arena for a while. despite the wall of text, the core of it is most want small to medium grouped pvp, knowing the numbers are set on both sides, with rankings outside the emperorship. Cyrodiil is a good massive scale battle, but it can take a while and it can be frustrating when you can form up at most a 12 man group to take on 50+. There are numerous other reasons. I'll leave it to you fine folks to read if you want, but something smaller scale we can queue up on and see new maps would be a welcome addition.

    Oh, and shouldn't this be to @ZOS_BrianWheeler? Not Gina?

    I like the argument "If there were arenas, everyone would leave Cyrodiil."
    WHAT'S THAT SAYING ABOUT CURRENT CYRODIIL

    I understand that some people may like the concept of Cyrodiil, but it's unplayable. I would rather lose the AvA and have proper fun in PvP.
