    Necro jokes best best jokes.

    In an attempt at a serious answer. There are going to be a lot of players in PvP with them so yeah I would say there will be an increase in activity which might revive it for a time.

    Unless ZOS focus on the actually issues with PvP nothing is going to really change past some injection of activity whilst players get skills for their new characters.

    They need to find a way to really make an impact on performance and match making issues if they want to really get PvP into a healthy state again.

    Yeah, performance has to go up. Another matter is AI. There's a reason people generally avoid sorc pets if possible, and I wonder how Necros could fare better.

    As long as there will be absolutely 0 communication from the entire ZOS team regarding Cyrodiil and bad performances, the PvP aspect of the game is not looking very good. Sure people who have been playing since release or who have committed to it severally will most likely keep playing but the chances to get the community growing is near to none.

    Yes, it would certainly help if we got a sneak insight into ZOS' thought progress, IN ADVANCE. One thing I'm still holding a grudge over is how we got shield cast times out of the blue, and only after MASSIVE backlash did we get hp cap instead - again, out of the blue. I'm convinced had we been informed a month earlier, the community and ZOS could have worked together on a more elegant solution. By the time things are revealed on PTS, it's usually already too late.

    From my point of view the non-na pvp community is and has been quite steady for years if anything things have picked up a touch, probably because of ny holidays. Guilds come and go, new ones form, some have been around since the early days. We have a fair share of engagements with pug swarms and guilds alike. All with the comfort of skills working as intended and a steady ping and that is a touch high as we are non-na, but we are use to it. Not everyone is afflicted with a powerpoint presentation with a faulty remote :smile:

    Hope you NA guys and girls get well soon.

    All good, and it's great to hear if you're having fun!
    =)
    I'm XBox EU, and things are more... calm there. Sure, you can PvP in Vivec and at prime times, there are even zergs running around. But the overall... mood is different these days. Many of my old comrades who used to be lively PvPers, now sport a more "zero-Fs-attitude". Building strong groups fighting seriously for the alliance has become quite difficult. And with that "alliance spirit" so diminished, I find it hard to motivate myself into playing, especially with all the nerfed classes.
    Well, that's my perception. Could be different for others.

    Some have considered they might combine the 3 factions and make a faction vs new faction war

    There’s going to be a lot of the same players who already PvP in PvP with them. So PvP will remain the same laggy mess just with new punny character names.

    The forum is mostly about lag and videos. Necromancer might add variety to videos for those who watch. I don't think it will do anything about lag. Pointless thread in the wrong forum.

    It will make lag worse with additional skeletons running around.
    Also, I think many people didn't like the gameplay changes brought with Murkmire.

    There may be a brief increase as people want to try out a new skill line or class in PvP but I don't see it being sustainable. Now, if at the same time some better performance and cool new features were added for Cyro to grab people's attention it might get a noticeable pop boost that lasts a while. Not huge, but a bump.

    But, to really get Cyro back to something decent (assuming parameters and trends since launch), performance would to be amazingly better and the new features extremely fun and refreshing. A new class/skill line can't do that, no matter how fun or cool it might be. And it wouldn't be former ESO PvP players mostly, as it's unlikely that many of those who ran out of patience will return.

    the class will be subpar so no one cries P2W, and because we always get punished somehow for asking for things. the armor sets however will be OP until they make enough money off chapter sales then they will get nerfed.
