There you have it, from the Horse's mouth.
If you don't do PVP, then you have no reason to buy Imperial City. It's not for you. period.
there is no point in continuing to complain about the Tel Var Stones. It's not designed for you, so you have no reason to bother with it. Just save your money for Orsinium, and let the PVPers have their expansion.
I feel sorry for the Ganker tryhards who thought they were going to get some easy Carebear prey, but this Expansion is for PVPers, and no PVE Carebear should spend money on it, per ZOS. time to git gud scrubs. have fun getting stomped by real PVPers.

Whole heartely agree thankfully these games will keep me busy for a long time..
FALLOUT 4 and MGSV oh yes it will be a glorious fall
not interested in the DLC and I have the crowns
I also think that ZOS is working on what is the most successful thing in ESO and that is the PVP hence
the DLC

I highly doubt this is the case but I can see how it escalated. If ZoS can hint at equivalent gear outside of Cyrodiil I think a lot of the fires will die down.

Except you'll still need VR16 gear, VR16 mats, VR16 enchants, and Orsinium will probably be VR18 because ZOS needs to sell XP pots in the crown store to go with the DLC pack.
and we have no ETA on Orsinium, possibly sometime 2016 is all we know.

even if there is no equivalent gear outside of IC - "carebears" without the IC DLC can buy that gear from the gankers. Just as they can buy PvP gear right now...

.... do you even understand how inflated the prices will be?
Buying the gear will be out of most people's budget.
TBH, if ZOS make Orsinium, the long-promised PVE UPDATE gated by gear only available by PVP content then it'll fail, hard!Except you'll still need VR16 gear, VR16 mats, VR16 enchants, and Orsinium will probably be VR18 because ZOS needs to sell XP pots in the crown store to go with the DLC pack.

Yes, killing people and taking their stones is indeed a very important part of the Imperial City DLC. A lot of PvP players have been wanting an actual penalty to dying and this seems to provide just that.jamesharv2005ub17_ESO wrote: »Lava_Croft wrote: »Is it so hard to just let PvP players enjoy the only piece of new content they will probably ever see?
So unless you can gank newbs and steal their stuff you cant enjoy IC? Is that what you are saying?

If you don't want to deal with, then don't play this DLC. It's been stated over and over that this is PvP content. I don't want to deal with braindead repetitve dungeons and ridiculous questlines, so I don't. I also don't go to the forums demanding more PvP in my PvE.jamesharv2005ub17_ESO wrote: »Lava_Croft wrote: »Yes, killing people and taking their stones is indeed a very important part of the Imperial City DLC.

No I wont deal with it as many many other players will not. As you see by this thread even other pvp centered players hate this idea. I guarantee it will be changed or I guarantee you wont have anyone to gank and steal their stuff. The place will be deserted and you and your gank buddies will have to start killing each other.
I mean how sad is it you cannot enjoy yourself without abusing other people.

Story driven quest lines is what elder scrolls is all about. If you want a hardcore pvp game go find one. Also I am going to mark this so I can come back and say "I told ya so" when they remove the whole looting of stones thing.

The fact that your personal views on what constitutes an Elder Scrolls game are different does not change anything about it. You can always go play Skyrim with its focus on 'story driven quest lines' that all involve going somewhere, pressing a button and killing 50 Draugr.
But I don't want to, ZOS doesn't want to and it seems a lot of PvP players don't want to.
