What is your PVP IQ?
ataggs
✭✭✭✭
Talking with guild mates, I realize how ESO/PVP freaking smart they are. It seems that some players are good and then some are on a different level. I need to die three times or more to the same group before the thought hits me "Hey...I think I'm being farmed." For other players, they think 5 moves ahead of the enemy (and I sit in amazement). This goes for tactics and theory crafting.
So if we use the IQ rating, I would say I'm maybe triple digits on a good day, probably average but that's because I keep good company. Where are you and who, if any, are smarter?
***Bonus question, what question would you ask another player to get a gauge for their PVP IQ?

KenaPKK✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Stam and magicka are both capable of over- and underpowered things regardless of class, and all combinations therein can wreck people in the hands of a skilled and seasoned player.
As for the OP, if you at all times...- play with people who are better than you,
- play outnumbered, and
- use terrain, surprise, and siege to tip the odds in your favor

I'll take dat one (assuming we're on EP):- Defensive AD scroll at Chalman
- Offensive AD scroll at Kingcrest
- Defensive DC scroll at BRK
- Offensive DC scroll at Farragut
- EP scrolls at temples
If AD takes BRK, they won't be able to retrieve the DC scroll, and DC will be tempted to attack AD to retrieve it, since BRK is closer than Farragut.
If DC takes Chal, they won't be able to retrieve the AD scroll, and AD will be tempted to attack DC to retrieve it, since Chal is closer than Kingcrest.
