Leave Dueling As Is

Zurxii

People are constantly complaining about duels in towns and cities. However they're the same people that come into pvp and Zerg down duelers and smallscale players. Makes sense right?

I mean you can't really say they are the same players...

Most players that dislike it are RPers (I've read several comments by them) and peopls that get lagged because of it.

The amount of duelers and duels in cities are dropping though.

And quite frankly... the duelers are some of the best PvPers out there. Sometimes I feel mediocre against duelers, go into Cyrodiil and feel like a boss lol

True, but it is annoying when people complain then turn right around and Xv1 me

Not the case at all. I'm against dueling in towns and cities and have never set foot in Cyrodiil. I have no interest in PvP, which is why I don't want to have to run through the middle of it in PvE areas.

@Tandor first off, it's fine you don't like PvP, etc, but that should have no barring on this subject.

Second, duelers... how are we suppose to find each other? From my experience I can find about 6 duelers in a hub, but not much more than that...

Frankly the lag has felt worse for the duelers than the PvE, it shouldn't take me so long to CC break!

First, I was simply refuting the OP's claim.

Second, it's perfectly valid for PvEers doing PvE content in PvE areas to have a view on the matter of PvP being added to those areas, especially when it impacts on the PvE aspects for which they were designed.

Moreover, if you're saying the lag is affecting dueling then it makes a lot of sense to take the dueling outside populated areas, which is all anyone is asking for. Nobody is against dueling per se, they just want it better located for everyone's benefit, your own included apparently.

@tandor i see that now, it being a response and not a statement, my apologies for how I may have been rude

Dueling in major towns contributes the existing serious lag issues particularly on console and it's incredibly annoying that you can't even lay your controller down in these areas to take a quick break because all of the ultimate spam has it vibrating off of the desk.

ZOS could very easily create dueling areas outside of towns where players could meet and it would solve both sides of the debate.

ZOS has made no statement so it's a non issue until they bring it up .

They need to add small arenas just outside of towns but outside of the same loading instance. It gives duelers a known place to congregate still but fixes the issues with lag as well as just the annoyance of Ult and other abilities constantly shaking your screen and controller while standing in town trying to do other things.

Dawnblade

Duels should be restricted to outside of towns / wayshrines / craft stations, that or allow the guards to charge duelers with disturbing the peace.

It has nothing to do with disliking PVP and everything to do with performance in areas that already have issues with lag and latency, as well as all the effects and sounds while trying to do town stuff.

People are dueling inside the Bal Foyen crafting building now. There was a duel in a bank the other day- Wayrest, if I recall.
