we need undaunted bosses defending forts because npc are useless

raviour

since 1.7 npc are poo, we need skoria defending fort ash, nerienth at aleswell etc.. molag bal will come and help last emp keep defence, this will help the nightcapping trouble and bring a new great element to pvp

God_flakes

Please stop trying to make Cyrodiil a Pve care bear zone. If I wanted to fight bosses I would. I want to fight PLAYERS.

raviour

ye but solo defence is a *** since ic

i would like skoria by my side vs some stupid nightcappers

raviour

k solo defence is similar to a female dog

raviour

also it would be quite fun and help the nightcapping problem

Keep NPCs are a pathetic joke on CP-enabled camps, either buff them or outright remove them to improve performance.

There was once a time where keep NPCs could actually help with outnumbered keep defense, wiping a potato raid with meatbags and mage NPC guardian storm aoe was glorious. They could also cover you when trying to escape Xv1 situations, but now they just tickle enemy players while you're focused down.

raviour

ye npc were very strong in 1.5 n it was more fun but because of ic zos lowered the detection range n most cyro npc are outright useless now, 2 of us were wiping 30 with npc help in 1.6, but ye npc are pathetic now

raviour

this was early 1.7 i was disgusted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07wplqV5Qos

I think Zos has determined npc's are just for realism now. They really don't do anything, I agree.

Pay for upgraded keep defences via AP. Been asked for years now. The keeps are stale, the guards are stale, freshen the show up please.

With this being 1.8 or 12.12 or whatever the patches are called now, it wouldn't actually do anything and that makes me want that sort of NPC all the more. I want a whole raid of outta touch, borderline senile tottering old man guards doing stuff that won't work anymore. I want them to slot Magelight and spam Healing Springs inside the keep between every single engagement. I want them to call out when dolmens are active, and I want them to wear V12 Morag Tong rings to make their Impulse hit harder. I want them to be grouped with me but periodically type LFG in group chat; I want them to defrag their hard drive overnight and blow into a Nintendo cartridge to help with the lag.

Siiiiiiiiigh

The correct thread message would be to buff the NPCs, not add PvE land bs to a PvP zone.

Besides, it's not like a measly PvE distraction would stop solid PvP players, much less a zerg.

Or, you could simply move to a different timezone ...

Then their nightcapping would be your prime time.
Problem solved!

Because there is no night in RL due to it being a 24/7 environment? Nice logic.........

Sorry to burst your bubble, but when a group of substantial size gets together during the game's least populated hours with the intention of using numbers to overwhelm the few opposing players and flipping the map to their color, it's night capping.

We could get all politically correct to avoid offending the sensitive little carebears and call it something like off-peak capping, but no. It happens during the late night / early morning of the prime time zones, so it's night capping.

randomishly

Yea its called night capping. Something DC do in the eu server on xbox one Since time immemorial. Hurting people while they sleep shows some bad ass skills. They also team up with EP because without DC EP wouldnt even come second. They cant win alone we may as well make a new colour purple. And be done with it call em the dagerfall pact of zerg. Lol. But op seriously adding pve content to pvp/ava zones. Its all ready going stale as it is.

Not sorry to burst your bubble, in server environments there is no night. Just high and low traffic periods buddy

Getting mad because the word "night" is used is just mincing words. The ____ capping is a scumbag move regardless, and fighting over what words people use to describe it is petty.

That is because you're mad that 15 EP are night capping the campaign. That's justified.

I do agree that the npcs should be stronger, but let's not go overboard. Having npcs is already enough PvE for my tastes. lol

zuto40

Npc upgrades for AP
Patrolling squads of mage guards-50k AP
Double damage/healing/health-150k AP
Alliance warlord npc with squad of mage guards in the inner keep-200k AP
Traps-10k-500k AP
Keep reserves, triggers when 1 flag is taken, 10 mage honor guards and 10 healers spawn around the final flag-500k AP
Magic(automatic) oils-200k AP

Only 2 may be active at a single keep

i've nightcapped myself but v = numbers, i was in coa and i was think it would be nice to see valkyn skoria defending fort ash just for lols, so decided to put the idea out there, it was fun solo defending v 15+ in 1.6 tho, miss those days

raviour

nightcapping is just a fact of life, some ppl do it on purpose others work in bars etc so wake late n play late, problem is many ppl think they cant do anything when only a few are around at 5am, but 2 can cap a keep, 1 even, just depends how much u care

No, he meant because of something called "Timezones". Look it up on Google, it's an interesting read ...
