Fighting zergs gets even harder

babanovac · May 2014

So it's not enough that AoE targets is capped at 6, now the cost of impulse is being increased.
So is ZOS basically telling us to zerg or die?...

Also, the radius of talons is being decreased. Grats on missing the point, ZOS...

The AvA needs more small objectives to small groups, not stronger AOEs. Battles right now are pretty bored, people running spamming skills (AOEs) without any sense.

Impulse and talons are what helped us bomb zerg and they are getting nerfed lol

Exactly. AvA needs more insensitive for small groups. This change does the exact opposite - small groups will have an even harder time against zergs.

At the moment are only 2 ways to play PvP in ESO.

1. Run in Zerg.
2. Run in Ganker Group.

I play with a group of 3 and we do it all. We even takes keeps. Not quickly mind you :P Outposts are easier. We don't take resources though because that is a lot harder than a Keep.

edit: edit: I just read in another thread that they are increasing the NPC spawn rate. This might destroy it for us.

it only takes 4 or 5 vets to easily take a resource. it only takes 4 or 5 vets to wait near a enemy keep where people are spawning to run to a seige to pick off people and hinder the backup. gank squads and resource groups can make a huge difference in offence and defence.

Or wear medium armor and use sneak and do hit an runs, which is actually very tactical and fun and productive

my bf and I started taking resources (just the two of us) at about rank 7 or 8
Guards by tower first...kite away from mage on towers range and flag npcs range.
Then Tower mage...then the four in the middle..easy peasy.

Cyrodiil is going to be nothing but stacking cheaters now due to the AOE cap.

And if that wasn't bad enough alone, the caltrops exploit means the stacking cheaters will be immune to both AoE and siege damage. Siege being the only uncapped AoE left.

Icing on the cake? The only way to counter that exploit is now useless (Negate Magic...now capped).

Medium armor is the worst armor imo
