@t3hdubzy ...you just rolled me at the aleswell farm...gee, thanks for the eye of flame

No CP elemental damage mitigation, boosted resource regen or overall armour boost. I would say expect to see the destro ult out in force this week

geonsocal · February 2017

howdy @Curragraigue ...I gotta be honest - as a general rule light and heavy attacks haven't always played that large a role in my rotation...

I am quickly learning that light/heavy attacks are an absolute must right now...

this is fun, always good to have to adapt a little...I will say this - i am going through soul gems like crazy - folks are dropping like flies (myself included)...

enjoying some AvAvA "capture the flag" action at aleswell farm...as always gotta appreciate AD making the long trip...

not quite sure it's by design - but, we all seem to be taking turns capturing the flag and cashing in on AP...hmmmmm

t3hdubzy · February 2017

Turned my stamblade to a magblade for some bombing fun. Its been a lot easier without CP lol.

TequilaFire · February 2017

Been having a blast as I wear mostly old school builds anyway which do just fine with no CP.
Using a lot of potions just like the old days.
Hate those resource draining poisons!

I farmed for BSW last night so no PvP for me 1.0

I havent tried poison yet, going to switch back to stamina in a day or 2. I fully expect to wreck people with 4 dots on open build.

worsttankever · February 2017

I tried the CP campaigns, but they were all pop locked and I didn't feel like waiting

Back to bwb with my alt .

Takes-No-Prisoner · February 2017

How bad was the que time to get in last night?

t3hdubzy · February 2017

About 60 to 70 with about 40min wait time.

I tried getting on with DC around 8pm (11pm est) and the queue time was also around 70...

I like to farm; and, there is still a lot of places I have yet to explore with my different characters - so, I don't usually mind the wait...

man, the aleswell farm was absolutely crazy last night...

geonsocal · March 2017

man, just.missed getting a focused aim flush...got hit 4 times, then had some dumb absorb stamina as the killing blow...

couple of days ago had five straight lethal arrows on my death recap - all from the same player, it was awesome

I remember prior to building up my cp what a bad match my light armor versus bow attacks was...

OutLaw_Nynx · March 2017

Busy night! Think I made about 600k ap tonight! I'm really enjoying this week of AP it's bringing a lot of people into Cyrodiil.

@geonsocal I take it you're having fun

?

howdy @OutLaw_Nynx ...why, yes I am

some nights though I'm a little more successful than others...I've found that if I have stuff on my mind - cyrodiil's not always the best place for me...I was in cyro tonight for around an hour maybe and think I may have made a grand total of about 15k...

I know - that shouldn't even be possible

probably should've have just stuck to thieving and farming for the night...

what about you outlaw - what type character are you playing and - most importantly, how are you dealing with no cp?

Takes-No-Prisoner · March 2017

I have too many games to be in the double AP event ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Horizon Zero Dawn got me gud right now

@geonsocal, my main is a stamdk. And honestly, this isn't really that hard for me. I've been playing in Azura's and Blackwater for a bit and I've adjusted my gear for such. Pvp seems so much easier and better without cp. I'm pretty sure we made a group of Daggerfall completely lose their spirits when we farmed them for like 45 mins. People don't know how to play without their heavy armor it seems.

t3hdubzy · March 2017

@OutLaw_Nynx thats a sick rake in. Ive been doing about 100k or so a night, but im also toying with builds for fun

@geonsocal thats sad lol im getting 15k on captures of one keep.

geonsocal · March 2017

howdy hubz

it's funny, I always write about how there's much more important stuff in life then eso and games...

right now I have a dear friend whom is going through some challenging stuff...hard for me to focus on much else right now...

even as much a casual player as i normally am, you do have to care a little while pvping...

I'm sure though my joy for pouring flaming oil on folks will return soon

I know someone close to me IRL who lost their uncle 2 weeks ago. It's all good, come back to ESO when you're good and ready. IRL comes first when you need to get back up on your feet emotionally.

geonsocal · March 2017

thanks prisoner

...

whenever I need to "zone out" a bit I'll ussually find a quiet spot and just do some farming or exploring...

after a certain point in life it seems you come to understand the saying that "this too shall pass"...and, in most situations things tend to work out okay...

maintaining faith and hope can be a bit of a challenge - but, sometimes it's neccessary to simply "double down" on your resolve...

sorry for the injection of this stuff into the thread...today is a better day - and, it's always important to keep moving forward...

back to the business of fighting, killing and stealing when I get home from work

geonsocal · March 2017

howdy @Moglijuana ...great to hear that you're active on scourge (our happy little home away from home here)...

had a chance to read through some of your threads...seems like you have a great deal of insight and skill with pvp...

more importantly though - seems like you have a very chilled disposition...

if you ever get the chance, hope you can stop by and kick in from time to time on this thread...

happy hunting out there - that includes myself - always good to be on someone's menu

had a little better perspective on life last night...was able to clear about 80k in a little less than an hour...

one of the best things about life - everytime you awaken, you have the opportunity to make that day better than the day before

man, thought I had the whole shield stacking thing down a couple of weeks before - just found out I needed to be using annulment/harness magicka also on some of my light armor wearing characters...

ahhhhh, live and learn...gonna start leveling evasion>shuffle/elude for some characters also...

I've used immovable>unstoppable before (still use it on my stamplar on his destro staff bar, helps balance resource use)...but, I need to get busy utilizing some of the other armor skills...

I have 5 of my 8 characters at tier 3 already...get to have some fun for rest of the campaign working on my non vet characters (all stamina focused: dk, sorc and nb) - they are a heck of a lot of fun to play and may very well end up being much stronger than my current vet characters...

hope everyone's day is going well; and - hope to run into you (and, not get rolled over by ya

) out there in pvp land...

just thinking about getting rolled over - reminds me the other night when I was playing at aleswell - you know, after looking at most of my death recaps, made me smile to see you on my recap @t3hdubzy, I don't recall getting hit by any destro ults for more than 15k...

anyone else notice this???

geonsocal · March 2017

one other thought - did the quest to get the free inn room on my main (still need to do it for the other alliances)...

up until now, haven't really been all that excited about housing...

got a chance to go visit someone's house last night - holy cow...wow, it is really amazing what some folks can accomplish...tasteful style, really well thought out and smooth layout and some bad ass looking trophies - man, if you got a boat in the yard - i'm tipping my cap to you...

I myself may never put the effort in to get a spot and decorate it, nor gather "elite" achievements - but, I now have a whole new level of appreciation for what can be done...

you're my hero @wazzz56...you definitely set the whole "eso" accomplishment bar up there pretty high

Same here ive used a dps dummy it was interesting but not for my arthritis, but made me kind of want one. Also went to a guild mates house and it was already looking spiffy. Again i would want one just not all the time to invest in putting it all together.

Also why build my own when i can enjoy others.

geonsocal · March 2017

howdy hubz...ya got me with your destro ult - actually it was one of three different destro ults to show up on my recap...

I'll tell ya though - i remember not very long ago getting hit for around 30k plus on those destro ults...whatever they did with the aoe damage seems to have definitely toned down the damage it does...

I don't remember seeing any destro ults hitting me for more than 15k (yours included) recently...

Its the lack of cp and undaunted seems to be off. Which means max magika is being traded for regen, and is generally lower. Also 25 percent damage is gone.

Ive also noticed a lot of ppl havent changed there setup at all which means same old tactics dont work.

I tried a few dif stam setups but weirdly enuff i found that my stam setup was good as is just need more heavy attacks and closer management on spamming skilks

Dont remeber who it was who posted about the nintendo switch, but i just finally understand what it is as of last night. The wifes co worker mentiones it to her and she wanted one. I saw the video last night and was hookes so i got one this morning. Kids are gonna love..... watching us play...

Also i was in between starting a new char to make a mag blade or converting my char. Ive been going back n forth with my khajit and it was very tough to magblade. I decided i need to change my race and settled on dark elf. It has passives that are more robust for magika and stamina, and having health recovery on a vamp does nothing for me. Also crit isnt as powerful in pvp compared to extra flame dmg.

Let me tell you, race matters, i was exploding people left and right last night.

Havent tried being stamina yet as a dark elf night blade but i enjoyed it with my dk so it should be fine.
