The new mystery siege weapon ?

molecule · January 2020

Announced in the Vegas Twitch, a new siege weapon is coming.

I'll have a stab in the dark at this ;

The asset is already in game, so easier to implement

Just remove the top front facing logs so you can walk straight onto the keep walls

Probably limited to 1 per siege limit and only after the keep is tagged ( below 50% )

Anyone got any other ideas ?

I would rather have oblivion damage siege or negate siege.

2 things I really dont want to see:
- Siege towers
- Wall grappling hooks

Both will be extremely hard to balance and both will cause people to simply stop defending keeps, as it will be close to impossible.

Lets say you defend main gate or an opening in the wall, imagine that a group of people or just single gankers using grappling hooks to get inside and "camp" the camp or just 50+ people just using a Siege tower from "behind".

I would love to see more defence options.

Maybe even somekind of portable
"spiketraps" which would hurt and slow invaders down.
Would be nice additional defence, when outer wall comes down.
Nothing too radical, just a little slow and maybe somekind of mechanic, that forces people come down from their steeds?

Ash catapult which causes all enemy attacks to miss their target XD

Hey, they've given everyone the nb fear, why not give everyone the old blinding flashes too?

An elephant mount that holds 6 people and rams walls and doors. Of course no one would ever be able to actually mount so they couldn't use it.

This with one of the new crafted PvP sets having fall dmg reduction

So, like a portable Volendrung for everyone.

Bugger that.

NUCLEAR MISSLE LAUNCH !

Siege tower! A direct asssult to keep walls.

endless stuck in combat curse - everyone who got with this siege weapon will be stuck in combat for the next hour

i know it is op but it is already in the game and now they could just call it a feature

Remember back in the day when DK's could leap or chain up onto a keep wall...

Yes, because regular oils don't do enough now....

Auto siege, place it and go fight while it sieges for you

My monies on a dragonhold hwatcha or an ayleid tank.

I'm not really paying attention to the upcoming expansion, so perhaps this isn't at all relevant, but in 2016, Brian Wheeler had this to say:

Also, we want to give Cyrodiil some new toys so we’re looking into adding an entirely new siege weapon that is Dwemer-based with some magical influences.

Siege tower would be cool.

Understand the pessimism, but I'd bet this new siege thing is actually coming. With ZoS "looking into" means years away at the earliest. Heck, what we are getting might be what Wheels was referring to back then.

Calm down. It is probably just a cunning plan to waste more inventory space with items that do not stack.

This was actually the first thing I thought of when I watched the announcement. Easy (lazy?) reskin, with 3x the damage seems about right to me.
