How is PvP today. What will it be tommorow ?

Mendra · August 2015

With the incoming update including a PvP/PvE area we -with few friends - feel concerned about how is cyrodiil today.

It's not rare to encounter a lot of very gifted players that can one shoot you there.

On one random afternoon, we decided to do a video made with record of one of those very gifted players we encountered.

Because we put some work into it and because a video is so much more than words we wanted to share it with you.

Once Upon a time in cyrodiil.. enjoy !

Oh you are tough, im going down in less than 2 seconds every time i meet such players.

You actually left stealth with your weapon sheathed, sprinted, unbuffed, didn't dodge or use any other defensive skill. Like that, it shouldn't be a surprise either way.
Then you put up that "bait", who obviously was not able to defend himself, be that for whatever reason, against a ganker you knew was there and you didn't change your build to counter his either.

I for one appreciate the effort and kind of language you choose, though.

Yeah, very gifted mean that they always do they same few combos of skills, with the perfect (close to 0 sec) animation cancelling, and also with the perfect timing for the magical detonation.

Or maybe it's something else in some cases.

I see lot's of people talking and bragging about using keyboard and mouses that can be programmed. About being the best. In PvE as in PvP.

Maybe it's a must have for being competitive.

hahaha one of the reason i m not going into PvP now, not until 1.7 drops.

So "skill", much broken, WOW

yeah that animation cancelling should be bannable when its obviously a macro. shame on you tharendull.

even more impressive when they do two unseen weapon changes in the middle of a 5 hit combo that occurs in under 2 seconds.

that's some seriously adept animation cancelling.

Nice video btw, very enjoyable, nice music.
Really enjoyed it, even if it's a macro/animation canceling exploit.

What exploit you would have died just the same 5k Teleport Strike, 2k followed by a 10-13k proximity detonation dropping the ultimate was just over kil. Plus not one person using them super OP 41 seconds of die Nightblades Pots? Yes it's cheap yes it's BS to lose your class defense cause of a pot but you can use them even Nightblades do it. Mage Light 60% less damage from stealth and no stuns from stealth giving you time to react and fight back/heal.

It's was a cheap but after the second time your bar should have been changed to match the needs of that siege the flare is poison for magic Nightblades as longer but far nicer way of saying L2P
