    I joined Cyrodiil for the first time today on my StamBlade, trying to get Vigor

    I fought a lot, I killed many ppl but I also died just as many times.

    I ended up ranked Tyro, Alliance War Skills lvl 4

    Now I plan to keep playing, unlock both Vigor and Caltrops and after that I'll keep on going...

    Until I get as good as many of the top PvPers out there!!!


    Morale of the Story?

    Practice makes perfect

    If you want to 1vX, you gotta keep on playing and getting the hang of your build and PvP itself. L2P or Git Gud

    Also, it doesn't matter if you're a newb or pro: Cyrodiil is about having fun, no matter if you die a lot or kill a lot (or at least it should be fun :p )

    lol yeah, but just find your place and its fun.

    If you want to beat those guys you can, you just have to practice.
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    The players who are very good and 1vX a lot.... they have also played a lot.

    Both the power gap and experience gap are big in ESO PvP.

    If you haven't PvPed much, you WILL get killed over and over again You just need to play more, earn CP, and learn from your mistakes. It takes time :)

    I know for a fact that when I get to PvP I'm going to get slaughtered, I also know for a fact that I'll probably never be anything above average at PvP, but I will still give it a go.
    I think the thing that will make me lol will be that when I finish the main storyline, and be hailed as the savior of the world, I will walk out onto the PvP battlefield and be one-shot.

    you just need to learn your trade. PVP is different playstyle and build from pve or trials.

    if you give up you will never master it and it will always be a mystery.

    check out some pvp builds for your class, Tamrial Foundry website is a good start.

    build, adapt your playstyle, learn. humans will always fight differently from pve.

    I'm sorry but your statement isnt entirely right. Expect that when you go in pvp you will need to learn. if you dont it is your fault not what you say in your post.
    At least the spelling is difficult for you.

    You could try the non CP campaign. Going to be the same for a lot of us venturing into Cyrodiil. Without the experience of playing AvA, we'll be canon fodder. Plus there are always going to be exceptionally talented players.
    Not participated in the alliance war for a long time, what I do expect if I ever choose to head back there is to die a lot. Such is life.

    There already ARE campaigns with CPs disabled. Unfortunately the Lv50 one on PS4 NA is practically deserted and run by EP (Azura's Star). BWB is populated though and for anyone under 50. Every other campaign for us is CPs enabled.

    Anyway the majority of the populace in ESO is players that have been around for a long time and far outweigh the newbies. As a result the power gap and experience gap is real. If you're not comfortable taking them head on yet then try using siege weapons. Beyond that just find some allies and jump into the fray because large-scale PvP is what Cyrodiil is and there is almost never 1 on 1 action and if there is it doesn't take long for others to jump in. It basically is a learn-as-you-go experience.

    P.S. You should have your caps lock checked OP. It may have been picked by a thief :p

    One reason I like ESO, a huge major reason, is that skill ultimately trumps gear. Sure, better gear helps, but if you gather the materials and study a bit (so many videos out there) you can make your own top tier gear. Crafting matters in this game.

    Once you have decent gear and a reasonable build, you just need to practice and get better. There will always be better pvpers out there. They will be faster (younger most likely) and have more time dedicated to pvp. Some people have leveled their characters entirely by pvp. You can't beat them if you don't have the skills from practice.

    Whenever I lose in pvp, I know why. I see my mistakes and I see what the other person did that gave them the win. I don't mind this. I love this. I understand why the other person bested me. I have a rewarding and satisfying life outside of ESO, so if I don't have that many hours in the day to be the best in pvp, that's okay. I know if I spend the time I do play with some concentration and an open mind, I will get better than I am now. I love that about ESO.

    I don't mind losing to a 1vX guy. Good for him. He's having fun. He practiced and worked hard to get where he is and I can learn something from the experience. I do hate getting zerged down. But that's also an issue of getting better by learning how to avoid the zergs.
