Share your craziest Cyrodiil moments!

Just earlier my team (DC) took a scroll and the guy booked it, all three factions were present and we followed the scroll-holder, I expected a lot of bloodshed but surprisingly there wasn't. All 3 factions were chasing him, side by side, cc'ing each other so that they would have a harder time trying to keep up. Probably the only time I'll see something like that, not dying or getting hit whilst riding on a horse next to another enemy.

Knocking 3 guys off a outpost at once with dragons leap.

My group getting wiped after an intense battle where the Emperor showed up and the tides turned in favor of the enemies to which they were /spit crouch up & down etc... on fallen teammates.

I was still alive... I killed a few and cloaked my way on out. I then snuck up on the Emp when he distanced himself "bravely" from his zerg looking all around for more enemies and well.. you know how NB burst damage can go when opening up with a sneak attack. I then proceeded to /spit a few times /laugh, crouch up and down, and then cloaked on out of there to meet up with reinforcements... which after a fierce battle again we took the keep and moved on to the next.

He actually went through the trouble of mailing me, to which I twisted the knife in return. HAHAHAHAHAHAA

Ofc there have been other epic battles, but that realllllllllly is an all-time fav. He is a very well known player (often emp) as well, not going to burst bubbles here and call out names but I felt I should've been awarded a title for that one with an invisibility dye.

There's a few other almost equal moments for me in Cyrodiil but given just how everything went down, that one felt like I was delivering justice and vengeance served on an ice cold platter of epic proportions.

the tickening...

It was a dark and stormy night. We just repelled commie onslaught on Aleswell and were celebrating our victory and mourning our fallen who burned to death in fierce ballista barrage, when somebody spotted massive yellow zergball approaching fort Ash. I hurried to the port shrine, selected fort Ash on map, clicked on it and...nothing happened! Ales was not under attack anymore, resources blue, WTF? I clicked again on Ash, still nothing. It was a tense moment, the fort would be set UA soon. Click again, nothing! Stuck in combat, unable to port! Panic, horror, sucks. The yellows unpacked their siege engines and started dismantling the walls. Click, click, click, nothing! The wall at 60%, unable to port. Click, nothing, click, nothing, click, no- oh! Loading screen! Phew, I made it just in time.
That was a crazy.

A small Group of 8 Players trying to kill me, so it was 1v8. But i got a suprise for them. They all rushed right to me, so all where in range for my Aoes.
I did the most epic combo i have ever seen, i initiated with meteor, right after Talons and my meteor hited them all together, noone blocked, everyone got knocked up. Cause of this, i use shooting star, i got instant 100 Ultimate to perform a instant dawnbraker of smiting right after the impact of the star.

God, all of them wiped and 2 of them wispered me "*** you cheater"

Lots of epic moment is last past month, most VRs dies in 1-3 shots, lvl 10-49 maybe 4-6. Lets just throw in, for example, alliance is sieging a city, I go behind and start to kill their sieges, like 5+ then they go inside, I follow them I go above of the maingate while killing some sieges on the way and start shooting them and kill like 15+, inner maingate goes down and and I start to think "We are gonna lose it!" then my own alliance comes through the gate to help and I basically saved the entire keep.

Whats really crazy is that I had 2.5 mill AP when I started to play on console now Ive like 7.5 mill and Ive soloed all the time.

Most crazy moment in cyrio?

When other faction player who meet you far away from combat zone in a quest hub wont instantly go full ret*** and "you wot m8" and buff up and start attacking you like some kind of neanderthal, and instead he just minds his own business because there is no strategic fighting going on in quest hub and its obvious when someone is there he doesnt care for silly pvp.

Actually getting credit for a keep take when I (and a number of other people) timed out due to serverside lag as the flags turned.....


oh yeah, I almost forgot, one time in Cryodil, I was able to use weapon swap dueing a keep take. I was so excited!!.

Then the server kicked 4 of us

It was a fine day, I had just spent the morning buffing my armour and sharpening my blades, I took a walk by the lake, it wasn't as if I had any plans, then I get a thought that was splashed across my screen saying that some thieving little bugger had tried to pinch our elder scroll!!! I jumped on my horse and without any thought to my own needs I rode straight to Cyrodiil

I could see the battle taking place on my map, so with lightening speed I rode like a possessed ghost rider into the battle, but it was too late, I had just made the mistake of a lifetime, I jumped from my steed only to realise I should have been inside the castle, and not in the middle of the attacking horde!!!

I awoke in a safe spawn place and thought, OMG that group definitely needs to be nurfed!!!

I haven't walked right for over a week and all because I didn't pay attention to my surroundings.

Pulling this off on the EP zerg bringing their scroll back. Mistimed it for the scroll carrier sadly.

Choose between three:

1. Venturing deep into AD territory and mount leaping off a rock into one of the pools of standing water near the southern keeps, I encountered a bug that effectively CC'd me (mount and all) into place. (I was essentially stuck in the mud.)
   I was far enough out that I figured I had a moment, so I tried every method possible to free myself, to no avail. I tried to do the next reasonable thing and submit a bug report right about the time AD started to notice me on the outskirts.
   Unable to move, I proceeded to spin in a circle, fending them off as their numbers grew. I finally got overwhelmed, meeting my death as some kind of player controlled shooting gallery prop.
2. Narrowly missing my demise near an outpost, I was able to stealth at the base of a rock near while 4-5 of the Emp's guard hovered nearby.
   While waiting, I had a lone AD appear mere feet in front of me and pause. Hovering over the name, I noticed it was the Emp himself. Then, believing himself safe under the watch of his personal guard above, he pulled a classic new-guy maneuver and opened his map.
   Knowing death would likely be the end result, I could not resist and started blasting him from the edge of my hiding place. After several seconds, realizing their leader was getting pelted and not returning fire, his guard quickly found me and proceeded to join the fight until I was down.
   I whispered the one that /sitchair'd nearby regarding how many of them it took to bring me down. They mentioned that they were above and were all caught offguard by the fact that things were happening as they were and informed me that Emp was doing a quick relog/AFK at the time.
   We commended each other and moved on.
3. And possibly my personal favorite, just because it shows the tunnel vision that people develop: Watching no less than 20 NooBs chase @Sypher (currently Emp) around a stack of logs for at least 5 minute...All going the same direction...all wondering why they could never gain on him.
   Finally, one had an epiphany and went the other way.

Craziest moment for me?

Well, there once was a little veteran nightblade who was supposed to scout faregyl farm. Who upon approaching the bridge near alessia noticed a somewhat green looking khajiit recruit bearing dominion colors happily crossing it, riding towards pact territory.
"Time for some stabbin" was the nightblades thought, and stabbing she did... almost killing the cat in two swift blows, and was just about to slip the final strike past his hastily raised shield when she raised her head at the sound of thunder.
As in, hooves. And as in armored boots.
Lots of them, coming right at her, weapons drawn, spells ready to be flung, a whole war party she had just drawn the ire of by attacking what must have been a inexperienced scout riding a bit too far ahead.
What followed were a crazy hectic few seconds of dodge rolling, dark cloak failing, and held breath until luck was with our little nightblade and the invisibility held for a bit to slip away... only to have the enemy spread out in a very tight search pattern.
Thinking if they are about to find her anyways, she decided to take a chance that they might have read the warning posted on the bridge as well, and went to hide under the structure... then noticed the slaughterfish infested water seemed kinda shallow around the bridge support pillars...
...then with some running and jumping got to the other side of the river with only her toes slightly nibbled on, where another dark cloak kept her hidden again just in time to spot the enemy soldiers checking the hiding spot near the bridge she had been in moments ago... but none thinking to search the far shore, as they had the bridge well and truly blocked.
Breathing a sigh of thanks to mehpala and any other entiry that might have listened, she snuck off into AD territory, making a mental note to next time look twice before leaping at some lone scouts back, and completed her scouting mission without any further unpleasentness.

Yup, that must have been the craziest moment for me. Going from "hey, lowbie to backstab" to "oh, cra... I'm screwed" to "I just can't believe I got away -this- way"...

During a brutal lag fight at Ash my character seemed to have glitched out completely. EP had taken the keep and all of AD, the faction I'm in, were wiped. Silly enough I decided to wander around the keep walls to see if I could pick off any innocent lonely EP. To my surprise I encountered one, went to attack, and nothing happened. I danced around the player for a bit and he/she seemed to completely ignore me. More EP started to show up on the walls, none of which seemed to be interested in ending my life. I whispered one asking if they could see me, he replied that he could not. A few more minutes passed and I decided to drop a Oil and stand around playing my lute. As soon as I dropped the Oil all of the EP standing around started to dance and sit around the fire, enjoying the fine tunes coming from my Elven Lute.

Inevitably an EP NB hell bent on obtaining whatever AP he could ended my life early with one single snipe. All of the EP that I had made friends with in that moment wept over my dead body. It was a glorious sight.

Mettaricana

i was exploring a very maze like delve*forgot the name* and a enemy AD player came in he was vet 2 i was vet 14 and i proceeded to horror movie style chase him around the dungeon lightly damaging him to near death for over 40 mins. every path he took i would bolt escape cut his escape off and damage him a little. after almost 30+ escape cut offs by me he made it almost to the door i cut him off he tried to fight me all out shield up he backed up and fell off the top floor and died of fall damage. im just like 0_0............... muwahahahahahaha!

Doesnt matter anymore, its different game now, Cyrodil is full of tanks, dodge rollers, shielded sorcs etc. People learned to play basically.

Crashing constantly during fights in IC. Damn Aldmeri Covenant and their drophacking.
