I mean couldn't I just as easily ask for a special trial mode where the monsters can't attack me, because you know... I "have to" complete all the trials but I'm not interested in learning mechs or finding a group?

But realistically, if one wants to obtain all the rewards and achievements in a big mmo with many different aspects, one should expect to have to participate at some level in all aspects of the game. I doubt they'll be doing this.

The best thing if one doesn't want to pvp is to try going at a quiet time, use stealth where possible and go about one's business taking care not to approach or attack other players, and with the knowledge and expectation that it's possible that another player might attack and thwart your progress, which might necessitate trying again later or on a different server. Other than some wasted time and frustration, nothing "bad" comes from getting killed like this. It's just another part of the game.

I personally found trying to complete flawless conqueror (back in the day before we all got power-crept lol) to be *much* more frustrating and rage-inducing than trying to get my cryo fishing or mayhem event tickets or what have you.

Just this.

is it possible to establish a "leave me alone" mode for people, who arent interested in PVP but have to go to cyro or the IC, example because of fishing, or do scouting quests during midyear mayhem, just for the event tickets?
I mean a mode where you cant attack other players or NPc's (in the IC i dont need to collect tel var stones, but fishing ) and you cant be attacked by other players or NPC's?

The entire point of PVP zones is for you to PVP in. There are other zones where you can engage in activities without PVP.

And let us port out of Cyro from wherever we happen to be and not HAVE to find and use a wayshrine. It took me over an hour to [snip] if that zone the first time I went there and I haven't been back since.

@Horace-Wimp Just queue for IC, port there when prompted, use exit door and you will appear in the same sport you were when you ported to Cyro.

I honestly have no idea what you’re going on about in the comments, OP, but sometimes you have to accept you’re not going to get the rewards for achievements you’re unwilling to put the effort into doing.

Some achievements are really hard and it sucks when they feel out of reach. I for one know I’m not going to be getting any of the trial mounts, but I’m certainly not going to ask for a trial mode that removes the bosses or something so I can get a shiny new ride lol.

PvP exists and has very few desireable rewards for its achievements. If you want those rewards, you gotta play the game.

I often solo queue with friends to play at the same time, and we get placed in the same matches more than half the time--but not always on the same team.

Sometime I get put on a team of solo players who seem like we're playing in tandem or in voice, even when we're not.

I've also had solo queue matches that I was suspicious had groups on the other team.

You mean take the housing achievements out of PvP.
Then you get the housing achievement, but no PvP achievements if you don't go and PvP.
I mean why would you want PvP achievements if you don't like PvP?

simply: if im interested in housing, im not interested in pvp.

Hooey I say!! I know bunches of players who are huge into housing, and are also interested in PvP. Interest in one does not exclude interest in the other. Why should PvP players not have furnishing rewards?

There's zero reason a furnishing can't require a bit of risk to acquire. Whether that takes form in PvE or PvP doesn't matter. ESO is an MMORPG. Not a worry free virtual tourist attraction like Second Life. That would be boring.

[edit] Besides which.. the Master Fisher achievement required Cyrodiil fishing. Yet you managed to accomplish that one.

the risk to aquire is gold
dont know how much you have, but as far as i know, people doning pvp dont have much gold, as i aredy mentioned, got housing you need gold. besides of an eso plus.

That's not really true though.

IC is one of the best places to make gold through Tel Var.

I wish they'd make surveys tranferable. I just destroy them most of the time and I know there;s folks who want them but I can't give them.

Great... so now I have an almost finished quest that I have to lug around with me for a month, because Skordo won't give me any conversation options and the whole thing's a bug?

Just...abandon it?

Staves, Bows, and any 2H weapon would be an issue as those take up 2 item set slots. Current mythics taking just 1 item slot can be handled without much fuss. But unless the mythic was absurdly overtuned, I don't know anybody who'd run a mythic that takes 2 slots.
