Oh and why get upset over teabaging it honestly makes me laugh . Laugh it off

Who? Me? I dont care about that, i find teabagging one of the best mechanics this game has to offer. I just dont like it when i get jumped by a full group.

this post has just turned into a anti DC and kings legion post

It's not exactly a coincidence...

You see this? There is nobody outside kings legion who likes kings legion, other blues even hate them because the ruin the game. For example when i see Keenax his group in open field they wave and we start some duels... those duels usually last untill kings legion arrive with a full group and whipe everyone who was dueling.

I remember the time we only owned bloodmayne and had some duels with blues and reds at faragyl lumbermill. It was actually very enjoyable untill one person with a kings legion tabard started to attack people who were dueling. He got killed since he lacked skill (lacking a lot) but withing 2 minutes full Kings Legion group arrived and zerged down the 10 yellows + reds.

The fact people are changing from factions from AD or EP to DC is mind boggling, you're literally killing the game/ server yourselves.

Yeah, its a shame to see one of the best EP run around with current blue emp but atleast they dont zerg.

Eldruf..
It's just crazy to think that you're literally killing the game you enjoy, by running around one hitting people with 40+ of you and I genuinely feel sorry for you if you're reading this and you find that remotely enjoyable.

I'm just gonna speak up for the non skilled players out there , it's also not enjoyable running solo or in small groups because even the better players run in groups and will crush these guys over and over by camping certain spots so they follow a Zerg or maybe some people just enjoy taking keeps defending keeps or actually give a damn about campaign scores, who are we to judge how another player gets his enjoyment they paid the same amount to play the game how they want to.. But could be there is no other game mode for pvp even organised duels are constantly interrupted by red zergs or idiots on the sidelines watching . I've personally changed the time when I pvp so I'm not really on prime time I'm afraid you have to do the best with what we have for now,

Hopefully today's patch will push PVP into more than one main campaign, I expect Haderus to become even more populated and Scourge being the main campaign. So I'll stay away from the inevitable DC zerg where possible, because it's not enjoyable . I will happily 1v4-5 any of them (along with most decent players on the server) but when 40 turn around a split second after you two hit there leader it's just dumb and very dull.

As for EP we're in a literal mess at the moment everyone seems to be leaving so if any of you DC players are sick of 40+ men killing any possible opponent you have, you know where to head.

I've never had luck choosing the superior zerg alliance. When ESO first hit console I was playing Daggerfall, which is when the Ebonheart Skyrim fans were nightcapping the schooma out of Azura's. I took a break for months and months, came back and made an Ebonheart toon to play with my dad... and what do you know, the server pop has dropped drastically on all factions, and who is running Azura's Star now? A horde of presumably bitter and battle hardened blues who are zerging harder than EP ever have in that campaign (that I've seen anyway). I've also seen yellow take full control from time to time but not as much.

And just for kicks, I took my old Daggerfall character into Blackwater Blade and guess who has every keep, scroll and Empress? A red zerg of course. It doesn't bother me much as a solo player but the scroll buffs and ability to teleport to something other than my closest fort would be nice.

It's pretty obvious EP and AD are tired of the blue megaZERG in Azuras... Hence why blue gets wrecked daily in the arena as it's the only place to smack down zergless blues. Yellows and reds don't really fight. I'm guessing everyone will be shifting to scourge today since Azuras is going CP free. Imo the legion is more than welcome to stay in Azuras

Is that where everyone is going?

Hoping quite a lot of each pop stay in azura's. 3 bars but not locked at primitive would be nice. Busy but without the lag.

ThatGuyCameron

I'm staying in Azura's personally. Should be more competitive than before.

@Brrrofski
Yup lots of EP have been in the arena lately as well as AD and DC. Has been good small scale battles the last couple wks

Yeh, I've been popping in for some lag free fights. It's a nice change.

Just got zerged down by mczerg and kings legion. They are in Scourge.

Thornblade is gone so small scale with cp is Haderus now? Azura's is currently my guest, anything going on there?

As a former Kings legion member/zerger/zergleader. i would actually recommend that. You become so much better at the game when you have to fight and not just gap close. The game becomes even more fun untill you do get zerged down. Small group vs big group and winning that fight as a small group... best thing in the game!

d3nbark3r

Scourge was fun today (y) many mag nightblades, but fun all the same. Hope it stays like this.

I spawned into Azura's as I had been in the sewers the night before. Whole map was blue

The smart move would be to have it equal and arrange small scale/duals in there due to the non CP effect, it'll be more down to player skill.

But we all know DC's response to that idea

@Eldruf - give me a shout bud, I'm normally in Dovakhin chat 1, but also in Revenant as well as Daggers. I'll be more PvP active going forwards once this character is leveled up

Not all of us in DC are in King's legion and zerg. If we have 20 siege at Ash, I'm usually heading to fight reds.

Sometimes if I'm solo I get invited to king's legion groups. I've joined them twice, maybe 3 times. Always on my stamplar to zerg my way to vigor (and shamelessly so - life without vigor is horrible).The groups are all over the place, nobody in chat, groups members running over your dead corpe, people just doing whatever.

I hate that style of play. Gimme a group of 4 or 5 good players and I'm good.

I didn't get a chance to pvp last night. I'll have a go tonight in azura's first. See what it's like.

So nobody has a buff campaign anymore then? Serwers should be a lot better with less chance to farm.

Already started an EP one. But for rerolling 3 characters it will be really long :<

Did yellows equally share scourge before theives guild,did reds share thornblade??? .. No you came out in numbers as soon as anyone tried taking a keep . In a ideal scenario it would be good to use this as a dueling campaign or even thornblade but ain't ever gonna happen

I'm with you brrrofski plus smaller groups chat isn't constantly filled with people talking shouting.

I put it as an idea going forwards due to there being no CP influence....there was CP in Thornblade & Scourge before this patch so I'm not entirely sure what your point is...

MightyBantam34

Point been before we could of had one of these buff campaigns as the no lag dueling campaign before seen as tho cp is a big part of the game.... I actually like your idea but the fact is if blues didn't have the whole map then another alliance would but hey maybe everyone will switch to scourge and maybe just maybe it can become one very unlikely tho

Pazz_

I get you now mate. Yeah, I get what you mean, but every one wanted a buff campaign back then. Now that it's not possible for every one to have one to themselves, it makes more sense, to me, to keep the other campaigns competitive and keep the non-CP campaign for small scale fights etc. I know you won't get every one agreeing though *sigh*

GrigorijMalahevich

Had some fun fighting blue zerg in Azura, no CP is interesting. Though, couldn't take it for long as just got totally overrun. HellPearl is too strong with emperor buff

Duelling with no CP is really fun, as sustain builds really show what it is all about and suddenly PvP becomes all about strategy, not just pressing all buttons and screaming some swears.

I also think engine guardian will be the new meta in Azura.

Hopefully the servers will be merged one day... different people to fight and it will add enough people for another active 30 campaign! Nightcapping would also be harder i hope.

It would be a 24hr constant, taking into account all the time zones in Europe couple with the U.S East & West coasts being 5 & 8 hours behind (the UK) respectively. That could only be a good thing as you would always have action whenever you were able to PvP.

I'm actually half tempted to make a US character now

MightyBantam34

I have a level 10 character on Na server only pop on when our servers are down lol hopefully I'll pvp with it soon see how good the talent is on na

PVP has been relatively good the last few nights.

Very disappointed in the number of clueless and dreadfully awful Magicka Nightblades running around in a desperate attempt to achieve a big amount of kills because they watched a few of Syphers videos. Staggering how many people have rolled an alt for this patch of have gone from stam to magicka and also very dumb. I could night find anyway in hell how I'd get enjoyment out of that at all, it's complete and utter cheese.

Also all these 'good players' that only tend to play the strongest class during anyone particular patch. So I'm not playing my Nigthblade most probably this patch or at least during this huge hype that seems to be going about and certainly won't be 5 running 5 Alchemist and 5 vicious death when I do.. embarrassing.
