    Yeah when it's such a huge gap of 25%~ improvements on so many things plus having the pvp skillines unlocked it was stupidly unbalanced to allow PC players to transfer their characters to console....

    It must really suck to be new to the game on console...as well as PC now...

    They should lower the champion point cap to 300 and make it so you can only pick certain things for your build, not throw champion points into everything and max out everything...

    I honestly think they will fix this by seperating former PC and current Console gamers in pvp...by CP amount. (seperation will happen naturally according to CP total)

    Capping CP by DLC will allow for catching up.

    They promised this to PC players a long time ago...they had to deliver. They kept their word.

    @Violynne

    He is showing how pvp PC players have a massive advantage on console players since PC players have full characters with crap loads of champion points and full builds which they moved to console.

    If I'm reading those pics right, he's VR14 getting spanked by non-VR players?

    But how are these non-VR players getting CP points? I thought that was only possible with VR rank.

    Oh, wait. If memory serves, CPs transfer to other toons, right?

    Yeah my friends list is looking like a plague has went through it because all of them stopped enjoying the game after VR1-VR14 PvP and getting trolled by the CP NoLifers.

    Sad honestly because the game really is fun until then. After VR1 PVP is no longer skill based :/

    And like you pointed out.... It is only going to get worse as time goes by. Can you imagine what you would walk into if you tried to start playing this game 6 months from now? LMAO!
    Most of the level 10's running around will have 1k CP or more lol.

    Tragically sad ZOS
    sad............

    Out of all the people you showed (which are mostly people I know) there is only 1-2 transfers and they all have around 120-140 cp. they just have their builds built correctly for what they want to do in pvp.

    And that is what?.... Troll the console playerbase?

    This is why Transfers were a horrible idea and also why NO OTHER successful MMO has ever allowed it be it from beta or whatever the case may be.

    Second thing is the CP system is fine if... IF there is a way that the newer players NEVER are trolled by the CP grinders. If the CP grinders had to play against only other CP grinders then this would be fine. I am one of the people that has the time to grind a few CP's, but to punish others that do not is just going to lead to this games population to die off. Not to mention NOBODY is going to be buying this game in a year if they are never able to play it on a competitive level.


    ZOS should make CP free PvP campaigns and then have a few for the CP players to play each other, but then again it would just *** off the CP grinders because they wouldn't be able to "]they just have their builds built correctly for what they want to do in pvp.

    Wait, you mean you got killed by V17, V20 and V22 level characters?

    When did this happen? Thought cap was V14, when did they raise it to 22?

    In the first 4 screenshots that damage done is laughable, my vr1 NB used to hit more with lethal arrow than that.. A lot more.
    The last few screenshots are somewhat accurate, represents daily pvp on PC.
    Oh and just wait til people start doing 22k lethal arrows on you everytime you leave a keep, that will be a memorable moment :D That's if people manage to advance that far before IC damage nerf comes. But regardless, huge damage numbers will come to consoles on a regular basis aswell, noobs won't stay noobs forever. So... The sooner you get used to it the better. Gives you plenty of time to adjust.

    Or it could be your death recap just shows the X most recent hits and they aren't necessarily all the same person.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.

    Yeah and the gap closing measures they talk about will be to little to late, the only way to stop the madness would be to freeze cp on players with a huge gap until a large chunk of the player base gets to xx% of what the those with a huge amount have, I know something like would never be implemented, I don't think ZOS could handle outrage of that magnitude..:)

    So in the long run the cp system is lose lose for the average player and even a bigger lose lose for the new comer.. :(

    instead of whining level up and learn to play your class you see all those deaths are due to LTP issues iv been solo 1v3 1v5 in PS4 EU on my lvl 40 killing vr14s very very easy without a pressure and i still say its a LTP issue most of these guys use only heavy and light attacks for damage and they dont know cc break

    Forget seperating PC and console players. That isn't the issue, the CPs are. I know I've been saying this for days, but a non-cp campaign would fix the cp issue tomorrow.

    And I in azura star last night on X1 na, AD is hacking. Saw 2 dude put up a wall in like 10 secs to conplete health. I was hit with 49k fall damage, when I didn't fall at all. I mean I was hit by a 49k fall damage attack. Zos, you guys need to get in that server and check it out

    VR4 on PC. Tried to do pvp other day. No chance at all when everyone is VR12+. Actually "fought" a mirror build of mine he was VR10 if I remember. I opened with a stealth snipe and attacks, not even a quarter of his health. He got me with a stun and 3 biting jab hits and I died. Just not fun to run all around the map and just die to 1-2 skills no fun at all. Will revisit pvp once the rediculous numbers get nerfed/standardized like they are for sub 50.

    The death recap shows a frag that got reflected back at you.

    You fell victim to the reflecto-flappy-wings and died to your own frag.
