More Alliance Ranks & greater rewards for Alliance War Veterans!

LifeIsAGrave · April 2019

I'm still waiting for the "Elder Scroll Stasis Platform" to be purchasable from the achievement vendor or something.

You realize this wont motivate the people turned off by faction lock to pvp right? the only thing which would do that is redesigning or reconsidering faction lock to begin with.

50 is enough. It has to end somewhere.

Thanks for the feedback.
I disagree, it was enough years ago, not anymore.

This could be a furnishing, maybe one day.

Faction lock is not the topic of this discussion.
I believe that bringing back the faction lock is a great step to stop the faction swapping/treason.
The ideas I presented in this discussion will motivate veteran players & newer players to participate more in the alliance war, regardless of the upcoming faction lock.
Also, the upcoming faction lock is for 30 days duration campaigns only.

Just to reiterate, for those players who only play one or two characters (rare yes, but they do exist), or who only PvP with one or two characters, this continuation of achievements would be a great personal goal to strive for.

Perhaps giving more incentive to stay in the game and persevere. It’s one goal that kept me coming back for more... @ZOS_GinaBruno please give this some serious consideration ..

ESO Players: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Universe: These go to Legendary Hero

I'm all for better rewards. Even some costume/ motif that unlocks at the 10/20/30/40/50 ranks would be a super start.
And when finaly maxed some increased rewards.. gotta keep those war heros on the battlefield right?
But for me I don't really want/ need more ranks. Some 24/7 players will max that out in no time and one is stuck again.

So better increase the rewards for the existing stuff

Thanks for the support

Hopefully they will at least consider my suggestions.

What they need to do is a PvP progression system resetting every new DLC / Chapter. Something similar to what WoW does with PvP seasons and new sets of gear every 5-6months. You introduce a different bracket of battlegrounds with a ranking system and make people earn "tokens" or any points system every week. The better their ranking is, the more points they get and the faster they can purchase the new season pvp sets from the quarter master.

It does not have to be gear sets but it has to be something unique to fight for and that change every new DLC to keep the competition and excitement going. With the so poor conditions of Cyrodiil, I believe that spending resources in smaller instances of PVP with match making and a certain sense of rewards that change every DLC could go a long way.

Nice article, well put together and I appreciate the time and effort you have put into this.

My problem with PVP is to achieve these high ranks and rewards, one simply needs to be in PVP and collect AP. Not hard, nor challenging.

I like your idea, but why not put some skill to it. Like for example -

Commander Achievement or Rank - Lead a 12 man group, succesfully capture X amount of objectives with this group. Set time limit to complete the objectives.

Forward Observer Achievement or Rank - Scout and Operate within Enemy territory. Conduct stealth operations and sabotage resources or Keeps to allow easier siege for the Alliance.

Siege Commander - Repair X amount of siege, lose X amount of Siege in Combat, Cause X amount of damage with Siege on EN Keeps or players etc.

I would love the Support line revamped or another skill line, Siege Master Skill Line, Passives to promote faster repairs, siege that can fire faster, deliver more damage and the ability to SAP walls (Dig to break them down from underneath). Field Siege, rapid construction and coordinated Artillery with ground forces fighting.

Albiet, there is a lot of variables here, but Cyrodiil needs more skillful play, not time spent gather AP. Its a lazy way for Zenimax to promote people by simply gathering enough AP.

Love any idea to promote Alliance War in Cyrodiil.

51, 52 Lag

53, 54 Master of Lag

55, 56 Grand Master of Lag

This will give you 6 more ranks

Thanks for sharing this input

It could be interesting, but a complete reset may be a bit too much.

What you suggest is nice.
It could be an addition to my original idea.
The classic progression system can still be AP based and other type/s of progression system/s can be based on new ideas.

LOL

Rank 57/58 - Loading Screen
Rank 59/60 - Legendary Loading Screen

Personally I aggree there should be more ranks as those who have max rank need more incentive. I don't have max rank because unfortunately I play 4 different (sometimes more) chars in pvp.
The thing I would love to see are better rewards for PvP in particular some of the weapons and gear not available to us if we don't PvE. These should not be able to be aquired easily though and should take a similar amount of time spent as say 60 runs of DsA or VMA etc.
I don't PvE very much so I am not good enough/confident enough to go into DsA and try to get the inferno staff that undoubtedly gives an advantage in PVP that I need etc and would like to have these available for my copius amount of time spent in PVP ( maybe they could be a reward for reaching a certain Rank or grant a token that people could cash in to a Rank reward vendor etc)

When you get to General or above, it's more than just being in PvP. You have to participate in more takes and fights and defending of keeps, if the current title is going to change in a decent amount of time. Currently, I up one title every month. Grand Overlord needs to take a side-step and allow for more ranks, and more specific ranks to players. I'm seeing way too many GO's, and we need to progress.

Example of specific ranks/titles?

Allow for class-based ranks who obtain a certain amount of AP with that particular class. It actually would be informative for players, and rewarding for the user as well. NBs, DKs, Sorcs, etc., would have their own ranking titles, available to be displayed below their general ranking. It would also be available to be turned ON/OFF in settings or in the title assignment area.
