Have you read this opinion piece on mmorpg?:

imo this guy is right... Not only that, but imo they should reset emporer every time the campaign resets (former emperor and all passives/buffs etc), just like your points. Keep the game and struggle fresh. Anyone else thinking the same? - M.

I agree... and remove the former emperor skill line along with the reset...

No former emperor passives or former emperor passives only apply in Cyrodil would be nice....or they could change the number of keeps required to all keeps on the map.

They should really kill former emps, although it really only provides 5% ultimate cost redux. Everything else is meh~

Yes he is right. There are so many of the slim balls.

So you must not know about August?

@Insignia91

What are they doing in August?

What if... You could become emperor on your home campaign, and if get dethroned you then become former emperor (as is currently). But if you un home that campaign you loose your title or former emp, and when the campaign resets you loose your title of former emp.

Changing it so anyone who hasn't already participated in emperor flipping will have a much harder time becoming emperor.

Should just drop the whole emperor thing completely. Why its even part of it I don't know. Aren't we fighting for our faction which already has a leader?

Has become just an exploitable mess IMO

Yup.

At the risk of hijacking from another thread on the subject.... Keep it up. As much resistance as there is to this subject dumping it in ZOS living room is the right thing to do.

Reset All Emperors (It's been abused. 90% didn't truly earn the title anyway.)

Set Rules to obtain title and passives.

1. Have to be in home campaign for a month before eligible. (No switching campaigns and becoming emperor in a day or two.)
2. Earn most AP in Alliance. (Can obtain title but not passives unless had earned most AP between all alliances period.)
3. Have to hold title longest amongst all Alliance Factions in campaign. (Between campaign start to finish the time as Emperor is factored.)
4. Have to hold title at campaign end. (Can hold emperor throughout the campaign multiple times but for the passives to be awarded the player must also hold the position at the end game.) This will give incentive for sides to fight on all sides. If a Emperor needs to be sitting the throne at end game his faction fights to put him there or keep him there. Enemy factions fight to dethrone him even if their faction leader can't earn the passives because they don't have most time on the throne.

I haven't been in Cyrodiil yet but the emperor business tickles my curiosity. I have no clue how it works. Would any kind soul explain shortly how this works?

BRogueNZ

You want the way it should work or the way it does work?

Search emperor farming for more on how it works in reality.

If you go down to the woods today, you better go in disguise for every bear that ever there was is counter sieging on the walls of an 'enemies' keep, just to keep their 'enemy' as the current emperor. That and other variations of complete bollocks.

I'd be happier if the Former Emperor title and it's benefits ceased to exist. My concern is that the new 7 day camps will become exactly what the low population camps are now.

With organized guilds accustomed to numerous methods involving emperor trading - it's all but a foregone conclusion. Suffice to say, resetting is not aggressive enough imo to combat the problem.

I'll just move this over here then. I really do feel that the 7 day setups will be too big of a juicy apple to pass up for organized guilds participating in this practice. If not something else. Removing the title eliminates the problem. ZOS has already demonstrated a propensity to simply close off the route and call it good. This type of solution does not address the growing number of former emperors running amuck.

And yes, the benefit is small. Yet in a min/max world small numbers add up to overwhelming sums.
