Re: 1vX - How? (PvP)
Artorias24 wrote: »The idea of 1 vs X is very simple:
1) You never fight with those, who play beter than you.
2) You look for good players in enemy group, and run from them.
Wait when some new players try to strike you and try to one shot them. Always run from good players and kill weak first.
Than try to kill good one 1 on 1, or run, untill friends come to help to outnumber him.
1 vs X is not that 1 kill X good fighters.
In reality it is impossible to fight against 2 good players if you are alone.
3) So we have 1 - 2 good players and 3-4 weak as example.
There are skills that heal more or strike more if they hit a lot of targets, you use them. So you charge your heal and damage with this 4 weak players, and always run.
Weak players will try to controll you, so it will be hard for good one make one shot combo, they can not stun you, when they need it.
4) Newer fight in field, always run near some stone, wall, tree 🎄 and etc.
About sets:
You get 1 protective set, that heals or regens you, and 1 proc set, that makes your attack do a lot of dps in small window.
It is hard to kill you, because you are fat, you regen when you run.
And when your dps window is ready, you try to kill enemy with ultimate as examle in this small window. Than run again.
I am not 1 vs X
Just as example, my build heals 4 k hp per second.
I do not use one shot combo, but i can do 5-7 k dps in standing target.
So if it will be 2 like me, we kill enemy in 2 - 3seconds (1 dethink = dead) It is not possible to fight 2 players like that
If you run, we can not do dps, so you heal more than we dps.
If you run near some stone asexample, we get lugs - so we can not hit you.
We try to use attack, server or ping is not perfect, so attack do not land, you run, we can not hit, becouse skills do not work. You get full HP, and try to one shot us.
If you do it is ok.
If you do not, run again.
Some builds is impossible to kill 1 on 1, so you run, untill you outnumber them
A lot of players will not run near stone (they know how, but they will not).
So they choose to die, not run vs X isabout to kill new players, not some good group.
The only one 1 vs X that can kill group is Mana bomber.
They use low level players to acamulate dps.
As example:
Group 6 players, 2 are good and 4 with low level.
You use sets that give you dps in small window as example:
Mechanikal Accuty, balorgh, some + to crit or dps and vicious death set.
You are in full dps mode and buffs.
In 5 seconds all your attacks are crits and do 1,5 dps of base.
Mana bomb that will hit 1 player in normal condition will do:
2 k damage, with all buffs and proc sets active 4 k damage.
With 5 more people 8 k damage.
You use it + ultimate (damage+ stun)+ some hard hitting strike.
24 k dps in me. But a lot of players are not as tanky.
And for them it will be 30 k as example.
If he die near me he deals me damage as example 5k. If 2 low level players die, 10 k dps from them will kill me.
So all 6 peoples are dead.
Low level players like to stuck on players, that they think are strong.
It makes them feel save.
So you kill the stronger one with them
The setslike this are: Azur blight, Vicious death, Dragonstar 2 handed and etc.
Kinda feels you hate players that 1vX.
wait how did you get to that conclusion? i mean the guy has a broken english maybe i dont understand sth there but he explained how to 1vX in general, so how does he hate 1vXers?
I hate some part of them. Some just do not fight back, just run run run, kill only low CP and run, even 1 on 1 newer fight back if they see some danger.
I really do not like this type
And yes, my english is not really good, sorry for this
no need to be sorry about it. anyway back to the topic: tbh honor is just a *** excuse for people that doesnt want to deal with stuff they just dont like. every play style is valid unless cheating.
and yeah at this point, even using bad server lag/deysnc to your advantage is valid too.
Re: Are there always the same number of chests in dungeons (normal or vet)?
@Stanx There's always 2 chest per dungeon, base game or dlc, regardless of the dungeon's difficulty.
@JanTanhide The highest number I've found so far was on Arx Corinium: 5 chests.

Re: Are there always the same number of chests in dungeons (normal or vet)?
Just finished running Arx Corinium for the pledge today (normal cus I'm running solo) and came across 4 chests in the dungeon.
For some reason, I always thought it was 2 per normal, but clearly, I've just picked that up from nowhere.
Should I be keeping my eyes peeled for 4 chests per dungeon or does RNG play a part? With the keen eye for treasure chests, they're obviously a lot easier to find than before.
Appreciate any insight
No. ZOS guarantees two chests for 4 person dungeons that we run for pledges. For Normal mode they can go as low as Simple or as high as Master. For Vet mode they will never be lower than Intermediate and obviously go up to Master.
I have gotten five chests from Arx and then again only 2. I use Harvest Map to make sure I check all the spawn locations.
But two is minimum. Max is ??
Re: Please give us back Rapid Maneuver!
Taleof2Cities wrote: »To repeat my suggestion: increase base mount speed by 30% remove major gallop and rapids and optionally replace it with some new skill relevant to pvp. Players would be happy and server hamsters would have one less buff to track.
People will always want to move faster then the base speed no matter what it is set at.
Clarification for this discussion: People will always want to move as fast as they have for years, not slower.
While it's still true that people will rail against making anything harder to obtain, the true disservice is having something taken away that was an integral part of your gaming experience. The uproar would have been far less dramatic if they had simply grandfathered in those who already had Rapids unlocked, and only required AR5 for characters who had not yet earned it. And yet, there it sits.... fully barred Rapid Maneuver IV forever mocking you on your skills page. And with a locked icon to remind you of what you once had, but are now required to grind unnecessary gameplay that you may or may not even be interested in to get back.
I'm starting to worry about the time forum-goers are spending crafting posts on this topic in the forums ... when that time could be used to level up multiple characters to Assault 5.
Most people don't like to PvP. I enjoy it.... but you may have missed the post on page one where the OP stated that PvP was an anxiety trigger for him and that being forced to do something he doesn't like such as this causes him to have unecessary stress issues. And others have stated the same thing.
Suppose someone is terrified of spiders. Take his wallet, with all his money and credit cards he's been carefully protecting for all these years from him, and throw it into a pit of tarantulas, and tell him if he wants it, all he has to do is jump into the pit, kill a bunch of spiders, and take it back.
All he's got to do is get in there with the spiders for 'two hours' tops. What's the problem? What if he has 16 wallets that he's invested a lot into and cherishes? Let's throw them all in there one at a time and make him get each one back before we toss in the next. Should be pretty simple, right? Maybe calling him lazy or a crybaby will help him get them back faster. Seems like a reasonable solution to some.
It's one thing to tell someone, "Here's what you have to do if you want something. And here's how you get it." The person has a clear picture of what he needs to do, and can make the decision whether he wants to put the effort in or not. Well, millions of players made the decision to go do a five minute tutorial to get Rapids. So they put in the "work", but now have nothing to show for it.
It's not the amount of time as much as it is the principle of it.
Re: Western Skyrim: Now a dead zone?
Well, that's what we have now. They're definitely hard and no one's bothering.
That's what some were predicting every time players complained about the lack of challenge in overland content. It isn't the challenge they wanted, it's decent rewards. They kept denying that and saying it was the challenge they wanted, but now they have that challenge but no decent rewards and they're nowhere to be seen.
Re: Western Skyrim: Now a dead zone?
They should be easy. Having them hard is only working when enought players are in the zone to do them. Like with Dragons or the pearl stuff from Summerset the number of players drop and the hard version becomes unplayable.
Re: Western Skyrim: Now a dead zone?
Harrowstorms should be ENJOYABLE with WORTHWHILE loot. If they're fun and rewarding, does it really matter how difficult they are and how many people you need?
Given how much the community is constantly clamoring for more difficult overland content I would say yes.
Re: Western Skyrim: Now a dead zone?
I think the problem is without the event Harrowstorms reward is not even close to a match for the effort. For something most people cant solo at all, it gives basically the same reward as a Dolmen, which is easily soloable by a level 10 character in basic gear.
Re: ZOS: URGENT PLEA ABOUT ABUSIVE COMMENTS on ZONE CHAT ...extremely upsetting.
Sorry this happened to you, OP. Good job reporting them -- I hope ZOS takes it seriously and does something about these creeps. Hate speech certainly *does* hurt, and should not be ignored.
As for the people lecturing you about what you should and shouldn't bring up on these forums, they are the ones I'd ignore, personally. You did the right thing.
