Molag Monster play for PvP (no not as him)

Wing

yes this is a rip from Lotro, but it was also the only reason I played that game, never got a toon past 30, but I spent a lot of time and money in monster play.

but this is a great way to let anyone enjoy PvP without having to get to cap, when you hit level 10 you unlock it. you a get a choice of a few monster / daedra types with there own skill lines and stats, that come pre capped (like vet 14 or whatever as far as stats go) and go to town.

you already have some various cool monsters to play

-spider daedra (cc/ support)
-daedroth (tanks )
-flesh golem? (lol I don't even)
-dremora (more classic fighter style and a healer/caster version)

there spawn point could be the various imperial city entrances that already have daedra at them, and you could capture keeps and the like for a fourth faction, Molag Bal

c'mon guys what do you think please support.

a decent example of how it would play, consider it like you were a werewolf, with all those skills and interesting perks, all the time. maybe an extra skill or two to swap between but that's the fast version.

Like left for dead play as the zombie type of thing. I can dig it. Or even if it was just npcs. I'd love something other than red and blue to fight to keep things interesting. Right now, its seriously just the same old, go into this keep defend it, go over here button smash in huge mobs, then go over here while following this guy yelling at everyone thinking some one put him in charge, and then go oh, here is a new one, get tag teamed by the other factions. lol. Boring really. Id freakin love if a daedra battalion came through to shake things up, or even a boss or two. Make it like a rampaging world boss. Picture it, You got red and idk, blue fighting over a keep. Blue is about to lose the west wall when... hold the f*ckin phone, the front gate is down, why? a freaking GIANT Spider with hatchlings in tow have busted it down. Looking to take up residence in the castle. I think it be reeeeeal sick. Id never play pve again. Id be out PvPing against REAL WORLD BOSSES and not this silly crap you run into regularly in pve.

EDIT: Then with the world boss thing you could do the undaunted armor type of thing were you go and loot the body of the monster and get an armor set from it. Buut, instead of an armor set you get a material from it. After you have a certain amount of that material or materials, then you can make your sweet ass armor/weapon/maybe even new potions and food stuff. This whole idea though would be a huge update. Even if they considered this or the OPs idea, it be a long ass time before they put it out. Like LONG. specially if the recent rumors about ESO are true. Then you might not see any more good content additions.

i gave you an awesome because if nothing else the enthusiasm with witch you wrote that post

seriously though I do like the idea, like you pointed out, something different from the classic pvp that does grind you down after a bit.

Agreed, something to break up the PvP "seen that" feeling would be neat. And having a random horde of daedric minions, with their daedra lord boss in tow, choose a random keep each day and occupy it until they get thrown out... sure, it would be PvE, but having an active "enemies to all" fraction in cyrodil (instead of reactive mobs standing in fixed spots) would spice up the common PvP...

Playing as "monster"... hmmm... not so sure about that. After all, how would that be very different from any other PvP we have right now? Same zerg rush, same siege tactics, same archers firing into the masses, just in daedric clothes? Not sure about that idea...

Hmm. didn't think of it that way. You do have a point. I was hoping they would get the skill they have now or even added skill that you see each kind of daedra using. That might make people not use the same, boring, dreaded, and annoying tactics. But I think you may be right. They would do the same thing or abuse something to the point of witch its the only way to play. Annoying really. I think I agree with you.

lol thanks. I tend to be awesome and enthusiastic from time to time. I believe I gave you an awesome as well. I think I had an idea like this once but I never made a thread about it. SO for spear heading this you deserve a pair of my awesome glasses. *gives you a pair of sun glasses* <-- my new thing. Bask in your awesomeness with me.

plus if I just wrote normally, no one would read the long posts I write plus I would feel like I'm writing a paper which I do and have done enough of through my academic career.

I like this idea as well.

I quite enjoyed Monster Play in LoTRO, and could definitely get behind this idea.
