I'm assuming EP will be doing the same as they usually do.... NOTHING.

Oh wait, I am wrong.. they do fight when DC has Emp.

I'm sure I will be doing the same.. getting rolled over by 20 AD. Campaign imbalance is soo much fun.

I've been doing a ton of PvE chores to get ready, but...

I'll be making 4 more characters with the new slots, to start mount training. Probably grind them all up to 10 this week, too.

And some gathering for poison mats. Sell all my v16 mats for decent money off of the new DLC hype.

Hopefully still have time to PvP.

I don't think anyone would remember but when TG dropped I decided to push for emp (Character name was Sapphîre). Was fun and all but so little action anywhere the whole week. Hopefully not everyone takes a break like last time

I would, unfortunately, anticipate a low-pop week. The ungrouped hordes, at least, will likely be busying 'ssasinatin' people in PvE. Could be some fun small group stuff. I know testing poisons is a big priority for me, so I have to clear some time in there--I suspect poisons will be even more broken in a no-CP environment, sadly.

I have a feeling the increase cost poisons are going to be completely broken but only time will tell

Now I remember seeing you on Saturday. For some reason I read your name as:
Of Blackwater

I guess I've been at the enchanting table too long...

Can anyone confirm how the removal of vet levels affects BWB? Do we still get kicked out upon reaching level 50?

Also, what about vet gear being based on CP now. Is that gear available to wear for people with enough CP in CP disabled campaigns (BWB and Azuras)? Currently unable to check right now due to my gaming PC acting up.

LMAO @EdmundTowers yeah, i was all over the place saturday running from keep to keep trying to defend from u guys :P

i believe it will be out at 50 just like it was.... and i would assume ( granted... assumptions are the mother of all f*&k ups ) that you would still be able to equip them in at least AS... not sure how it will work in BwB though once hitting 50... prob would be able to equip stuff which is gonna be some serious difference lol

As far as levels, hitting 50 in bwb is the same as hitting vet1. You are not allowed to enter bwb higher than 49. As far as the armor... not sure.... I hope you are not able to use, however....

I remember. I was emp the day TG dropped. It was rough. Had no time to adjust to all the changes and that was my first time as emp. About the time I got things figured out, I lost it. I didnt know saphire was you hah. It was slow that week, but nothing compares to how slow it is when ad gets emp recently.

one thing im curious about... cause ive seen it happen quite a few times.... how the hell is it possible for someone to take pretty much NO damage when attacking them... im pretty sure i dont hit like a wet noodle( saw it last night again while on Ookami )... and watched the persons health BARELY move during my attacks

typically id completely agree with u ... but in this case it was a dk ... not really knowledgeable about dks though ( i have a magicka one that i havent really played much... but plan on trying out a stam one soon ) so im not sure... when i was fighting the guy all i was thinking while i was watching his/her health was how the hell?!?! lol... wasnt until like 4 guys started attacking them that their health started going down.... in a sense that's on the lvl id love to be, but dont know how to achieve that goal

wonder if thats the effect of a guard on him? I always wondered how that skill was.

If he was solo and not a soul around then I dunno

W0lf_z13

yeah was on the side of a keep near the door, there were a few guards around them

Adenoma

Well, I've confirmed that it's possible to wear V16 armor once you vet.

W0lf_z13

... granted my templar is fairly tanky..... even for being only lvl 20... so maybe they were just higher lvl and im on the correct path.... time will tell i guess

W0lf_z13

@Adenoma OUCH .... thats gonna hurt..... once people get to lvl 50 they'll be monster helms running around in BwB until log out ... lol .... this will be interesting...... lol
