As a forum community we worked quite hard to get a D-Tick buff because we are bored as of capping resources for AP when we are low pop.
Zenimax increased D-Tick by 3x and introduced a more dynamic low-pop buff, 3x!!!!!
People were wtf nice AP, we only wanted 2x.
Morning cappers raged and ZOS reverted D-Ticks to pitiful mode again.
Just to rub it in ZOS make resource capping finally mildly strategic at the same time.
I left Vivec for Sotha 6 months ago because I couldn't stand the PvD playstyle (and endless 1v1s), now ZOS actively promote it and I have to wait Bleakers for 2 hours in Sotha prime-time while DC cap Chal mine ~50x till AD hit BRK and DC decide to hit the keep.
I know Zenimax are a bit extreme with buffs and nerfs but the D-Tick thing just feels like they trolled us.
@ZOS_BrianWheeler please just double defence ticks like we asked, defence is a very important part of Cyrodiil and Chalman mine is boring, these recent changes have only increased BG numbers because Cyrodiil has become even more stale for experienced players.
Bring back:
Dynamic ulti-regen
Mercenaries
Deer
NPC that are a challenge
Siege that hurt
Rapids and purges for all not just group
Luci Civello
The hole to CWC
D-Ticks
All these nerfs were unrelated to what PvPers want and only had negative effects on lag issues (if any). Dynamic Pop-Cap ftw.
