Siege weapons you'd like to see (but will probably never be added)

Less of a suggestion but more of a discussion on siege weapons you'd like to see.

Spider egg catapult - when launched delivers AOE web on a Tage area and several small spiders that spit, chase, and attack players for 15 seconds. (Tangled webs on a stick)

Dwemer crossbolt - a fast moving, single target siege weapon that will hit the first in its line. Can be easily dodged or someone else can take the hit. Taken from skyrim =3

Dwemer trebuche - launches a dwemer sphere that when it lands, becomes active and attacks anyone around it for 30-45 seconds (reload time). Alternatively this could be a Daedric type, replicating the trebuche with the scamp we saw in the trailer

Glass Catapult - heard of a glass cannon? This one literally shoots out glass shards across an area, much like caltrops, dealing damage and snaring.


So what other semi lore friendly siege equipment would you like to see but suspect they will never add?

    Those portable chamber pots you can steal made into a siege weapon that hurals big ones at keeps and other players would work like a oil catapult and meatbag effect wise combined

    Siege towers and so on would be nice also

    The Pact Treb - launches 40-50 EP chars that upon impact stop time completely for at least 5-10mins.

    I think it would be interesting if we could craft siege weapons, or had to make use of the local resources, like the mine, farm and lumbermill.

    Bucket of Filth - akin to the meatsack catapult but used like oil pots. Would free up space for another type flag defensive siege weapon (can use oil caty/fire ballista instead of meatsack).

    Actually I put a suggestion up for Ladders, grappling hooks, and siege towers a while back, but yeah, probably not going to be implimented anytime soon.


    I would personally like to see some poison and magical damaging siege as well, seeing how we seem to have lightnin, fire, ice, and disease represented in the current toolset

    Flying pigs would be more appropriate when it comes to playable PVP it seems in the way ZOS hyped it pre-launch.

    Siege ladder on the outerwall would be somewhat cool but it would be to overpowered.

    Cannons that do the damage of 3 normal sieged but would need to be operated by 3 people.

    The joke was moove, but i'm not the type to milk for attention.


    People cannons would be fun, just throw someone over the wall. Then he wall breaks your team can enter and revive you.

    On a more serious note: Magical weapons would be awesome. Lightning or something along that line.
