Taking empty keeps is kinda the meta right now for big groups. They earn roughly more AP taking keeps, then defending them.

So more incentive is needed to defend keeps.

Agreed

Ad needs to learn that having 50+ guys defending at Sejanus and a small scale group at cropsford leaves you a handful of guys to defend against dc.

Dc is no longer protecting your empty keeps by not attacking them

that's a blast from the past...i remember (many moons ago now) - that the clearest indicator of who was gonna lose the campaign was if AD spent too much time at bleakers, DC at sejanus, and EP at nikel or ash...

that would definitely suck if a large portion of the AD player pop took a break from the campaign, but, I still think it's gonna be anyone's race between DC and EP to see who comes out on top this first Vivec camp...

I haven't been helping out AD as much as usual lately. I've been leveling a warden and exploring Vvardenfell. Sorry fellow yellows, I'll be back soon! (Note: me being back will not make any difference, but I like to pretend it does!)

@Takes-No-Prisoner After some testing with a friend the build i was thinking about is a sham. I wont need anything crafted. Turns out damage health poisons really suck and the damage they say tooltip are not true.

I'll keep you in mind if i need anything though

Shout outs to the EPs players that were running only Werewolf in their group. We had a good chuckle seeing so many Werewolf EP players fighting together.

I wonder if it's the same AD Werewolf crew, but now on EP.
I miss the old EP Skeleton crew.
What happened to the AD Wedding Dress crew?
I used to be in an All Female Toon guild in Skull. I think it was called Guilda Femina. I wonder if they're still around. It was fun running around with all female toons group, even though many of us were dudes.

@geonsocal we're still around! @Paraflex is mostly in BG's when they work.

Cropsford and Vlastarus are far too close to AD home keeps. This is one of the reasons we are always in danger of being gated.

TequilaFire

Funny thing from an EP perspective we take Cropsford to help protect one of our home keeps Drakelowe from AD.

Paraflex

Yes Wedding Dress group is focused on BGs. We mainly play Almexia for no CP when we go to cyrodill which isn't often.

brought my shiny new argonian magwarden into cyrodiil

he fights for the queen...

by any chance, does any one know if the warden has a purge in their skill line?

poisons have been kicking my butt lately, need to make sure each character can purge...

been great fights bouncing back and forth from fighting EP and DC...ugh, spent about 30 minutes fighting for ash, only to get literally pushed out the inner front door, then the outer keep front door, then killed before I could even reach the milegate...had to take a break after that

Edit: oh yeah, personal rant - thing I like most about the warden class: don't need to ever carry a restoration staff (i got some issues about having to equip resto staffs)...

Takes-No-Prisoner

Mag warden purge is on Betty. It removes 1 negative effect when the Betty is summoned(i think)

It sure does purge, it also gives major sorcery, gives magic back, procs necropetance, and best of all its a free cast

geonsocal

i'm not so sure i want that thing following me around everywhere...

does it stealth?

ugh, thankfully i'm still low level on both wardens...it's gonna take me awhile to reorient my perspective on betty and bull

Well yea it does all that, but he specifically asked about purging effects.

geonsocal

are there folks out there whom don't slot purge...

how else are you dealing with all the resource poisons?

I wanna say I have the poison damage reduction cp at at least 7% on each character...

howdy @wazzz56

what characters have you been using in BG's?

have you been pug'ing or using premades?

any good general tips for BG's?

what is the air-speed of an unladen swallow?

and, most importantly - you wouldn't happen to have a spare "unbound" viper destro staff laying around anywhere would you

@geonsocal been running my magplar, same set up I have been for a long time, kags, trans..been using both premades and pugging it...general tips, be ready for cheesy proctatoes....they are everywhere..

geonsocal

@wazzz56 ...do you run purge/cleanse on all your characters?

I think most people stand next to a Temp and wait for a synergy cleanse

Yellow needs to take Bruma more, need more Shadow Walker pieces!

Curson

If Crops or Vlast are anything other than yellow, you can expect an attack on a home keep shortly.

Takes-No-Prisoner

Yup, which is why I really love seeing the flag icons they added so while I ride towards those locations I can see whats going on.

howdy @Curragraigue ...i hope all is well in your world today

this is exactly how I used to deal with it...normal zerg surfing comes along with the added benefit of lots of heals and purges (and let's not forget those warm and friendly ally meat shields)...

while scampering around in IC I would just bite the bullet and try to light/heavy attack and heal my way though it...

Battlegrounds that really isn't as much an option - too much incoming damage from all directions plus the need to move around a lot...

How is the performance in Vivec? Everyone I know is saying what I've assumed, that it's even worse then lagzuras back in the day. Last time I played on the main 30day cp campaign was back in Azuras days, now i've been chilling in 7days(formerly chillrend/haderus) and soon 30day sotha sil.

Takes-No-Prisoner

It depends on your internet connection apparently. People on AD side have been leaving over it being bad, but these people also don't have a very solid connection to begin with.

It's really up in the air I guess. I get lag sometimes when big fights break out-- but I'm also hardwired into a Verizon FiOS router with a static IP pointing to the PS4 and that IP address is DMZ'ed. So what other people are getting, I'm not really experiencing too much of a change from Homestead patch -> Morrowind patch.

geonsocal

been thinking a bunch about english bob and his statement to the "good" townspeople of Big Whiskey...

a year or so ago i would proudly proclaim to any and all whom would listen to how i never indulged in the use of proc sets...most of that though was due to the fact that i didn't really have many at the time in my inventory...

i think my very first proc set was the affliction set...not exactly OP by any standards...

fast forward a year - and i now have a bunch of the monster sets and a few of the "better" performing 5 piece proc sets...

point of this short story being - i'm cutting my work for the queen a little short...

i have an EP bosmer stam sorc who i've geared out in 5 pc viper/cowards gear, 1 pc molag kena and been playing him a bunch in battlegrounds - however - i really really really want to get him out in cyrodiil so i can have some room while i'm fighting to roam around and see just how fast he really is

minor and major expedition together - can't wait...blood for the pact

It's not bad when all 3 alliances fight each other.
But as usual DC goes all out zerg on EP. Allowing AD to take all ash and nikel without any defense and then AD goes all in on EP.
