What is your playstyle in Cyrodiil?

Balls Deep on my Nightblade Sap Tank, I can survive for a good minute against 20+ players just dropping veils left and right, I usually succeed in pushing the zerg back, I always succeed in spreading them out, but if I don't die, then I just keep tanking forever..

On my DK I prefer small scale engagements so I can toy with my prey before devouring it, when I'm playing my DK, which is almost all the time now, I'm not always really "there" in the PvP mindset so I could care less if I die or not, I alternate between 1vX and balls deep, but I prefer 1vX, balls deep is as simple as 1, 2, and 3, Talons, Reflect, Standard.

Give me full Stamina and I'll catch any Blinking Sorcerer 9 times out of 10, if I don't catch him, he usually makes the dumb move of turning around to fight me because he's dragged me so far away from my group, and then I kill him anyway. But I know you're not that silly @Teargrants you'd just keep Blinking until I caught you and made you mine, or you got away.

Pretty sorcs always drain your stamina is what you're saying?

Stamina isn't needed for a fight against a Sorcerer, they do pitiful damage, I don't even block against them, I just flappy flap and stack shields to negate their damage...

Stack on crown, minmaxed group synergies, ulti dump (the current high end meta)

I've been running my templar as a healer with a bit of off DPS when we are not pressured. Its just the role I think the class is best in. I prefer to stick with organized group. If I follow the pugs in a zerg, I find myself just keeping them up without anyone making a real push.

Keep wanting to level a NB but I think I would probably just look for isolated targets with that. Who knows as it will change as I find how I like to play him when leveling.

This is why you need to:

*Blink* *Barrel Roll* * Blink* *Barrel Roll* *Blink* *Blink* ....the double barrel roll is the only way to ensure a charging whoever can't keep up.

This is also why Sorcs are screwed in 1.6 as you're completely out of stam after barrel rolling twice.

mainly solo and small group. my goal is to gank respawn lines to position my self into good 1v1's and 1vx situations. small group we try and stop the flow of respawns all together. avoid the lagfest that is keep battles, and troll organized guild groups to see if i can get someone to actually leave their zerg and fight me in a 1v1 to 1v3 fight. Avoid crystalized zerg because they break the server and make me want to turn off the game.

Snit

Follow the zerg or other more organized groups around

I prefer organized groups on voice chat, working toward strategic objectives (e.g., taking keeps, running scrolls, cutting off the other alliances' transitus... that sort of thing). It's not optimal in terms of rewards, but it feels more like fantasy combat and siege warfare. That's what Cyrodiil does well, and that's why I zone in.

I just run around solo in heavy armor and hit players indiscriminately with my sword. Would be fists if there was unarmed combat skill line.

and im just laughing away the entire time

While on the sorc, TS usually goes like this

"Hey what are you doing out there" "Hold on, we are coming to help" "Oh, they are all dead. Wait, you killed ALL THOSE PEOPLE?" (generally when I am running with new people my regular friends already know what to expect of me )

Just roam and find people to kill...I don't even stealth, just find little fights around the world.

TS usually sounds like this with @Germtrocity:

"OOOOOO EP/AD OVER THERE!"

"WHERE!?!?"

"OVER THERE!"

"GET REKT!"

"***, THERE'S LIKE 4 ARCHERS"

"TWO DEAD, WHERE ARE THE OTHERS!?"

*hears snipe sounds*

"I'm dead...."

"Let's go back and murder them...."

Or if you're Germantrocity and I you end up with full zergs chasing you across the map....they eventually thin out and the remainder dies miserably.

But on my DK I rarely chase a sorc...Except the time I chased a certain Anonymous Sorcerer around Chalman and he died...and then got rez'd and then died again along with his rezzer...and then the zerg came... /:

Wow, now that I think about it, I get chased by zergs no matter what class I'm on. Y u do dis!?!!? ;__;

Gank/sneak around and fight as little as possible; but can and WILL put up a very good fight when ganking fails.

Also a support sniper and forntlines person when needed.

i dont care for teamspeak or zerg blobing, so im a solo/small group charger/ganker/sniper

blasphemy in your mind I know; "gankers can't defend themselves! they can only hide!"

lol.I really do laugh every time I hear that:)

In fact, im going to go ahead and say how I feel; I am getting tired of people negatively labeling gankers as "Weak and defensless" I myself have ganked many powerful VR14s over the past few months; and even took on some supposedly "OP classes"(cough DK) in 1v1 situations many times and beat them. Not all gankers are the defensless cowards you make them out to be, and I wish you would stop acting like that is the case.

Now I have to gank you come 1.6:)

so that's you and taga "the unkillable"

ill keep adding to the list; it will get bigger im sure.

Not good at it either, but oh well. My biggest success was my stealth NB I had a couple months after release. It got old after he reached vr-5, and being that it was more or less a copy of my main, I rerolled him into a classic DK build.
