pjwb16_ESO✭✭✭✭@ZOS_BrianWheeler Awesome data; love it when you bring out the stats.silvereyes wrote: »The stats are cool and all, but I think they kind of miss the point. 74% of the PC population earning between 0-20k AP per hour isn't "normal". A good deal of folks in Cyrodiil aren't PvPing at all. Many are there for skyshards, lorebooks, quests, visiting vendors, or just afk. Unless you somehow exclude those folks, it's going to skew the averages and percentages downwards.
Sometimes it helps to step back from the data and ask yourself, "does this even make sense"?
Honestly it doesn't seem that far off. Novice PvPers don't make a lot of AP. (It took me forever to get my first toom to Major!). They don't know how, and then they either die a lot or end up in a PUG group that makes little AP in the first place and then it gets split a bunch of ways. Getting their Warhorn is a tedious grind. One which the higher ticks will help with, but hopefully can be revised in a way that stop incentivizing zergs.
Had someone whisper me bragging they made 20k AP "farming" my group of 4 tonight with their full raid. Too bad I made 100k "getting farmed." I didn't care about the AP, we were having fun -- but a lot of players don't have a good sense of what is and is not a good source of AP.
Omfg those still exist?~ here since Beta

No outposts, keeps, districts, towns or resources since the Black Boot mine change are actually giving players 200k AP per hour. The highest AP earning rate per hour is 120,000-140,000 AP by 2 people, that was done for 1 afternoon, and hasn't been done again since the 9th.
The next highest AP earned per hour is 60-90k which was done by 9 players doing a mixture of keep captures, keep defenses, repairs, killing blows, and assists yielding higher than normal gains. We're digging into more details of those gains and dates.
26% of the PC population is earning between 20-60k per hour which doesn't raise any red flags, since we saw those amounts of gains prior to the Homestead patch. That being said, we are also looking at those numbers to see if they warrant changes to AP gains from all sources in Campaigns.
74% of the PC population is earning between 0-20k AP per hour, which is what qualifies as "normal play" AP gains.
As noted in the initial PTS post about the AP change, we are closely monitoring player behavior both in game and with metrics like those you see here which will determine where we go with AP gains in the future.
Why do I get the feeling I'm on that second category?0 -

Basically yea, think of all those bad sorcs and templars that 41m range or siege from keeps. That is them.

I guess they count the time spent in Cyrodiil, including the time you spend scratching your balls afk at your home base
Statistics like that are easily flawed.
For example : we had some 3v3s and 2v2s yesterday for about an hour where we barely made any ap due to the nature of our activity, I then went to pvp and we made about 90k ap in 1.5 hours, but the total result would be about 100k ap for 2.5 hours, which doesnt reflect at all the amount we pull off in a normal pvp session.5 -
VoiDGhOs7✭✭✭✭Yesterday I stood afk at Bleakers and got 400k in around 2 hours and today 200k in about 1 and half hours.0 -
Turelus✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I don't really want to hound Brian and I do want to remain civil but I also want to know how the figures relate to the issue at hand.
From his figures we see that only two players managed to score above 120k AP/h in the last 13 days and that a majority (74%) of the population are gaining only 20k AP/h.
However I have shown this morning that early morning trading nets over 120k AP/h and has been going on for over a week now. So either ZOS have very wrong figures or (and I don't want to believe) they're trying to mislead in order to calm people down about this issue.
I will give full information on what I did this morning, in hopes of shining light on this.
I set my alarm for 04:00 (two hours before I am normally up for work), logged into the game and killed a boss (Kingscrest Cavern) before running to Bleakers.
There were as always a small number of people scattered around the stairs/stones hiding and gaining AP and two groups inside trading the Outpost back and forth.
I actually went inside and helped this morning to see how things were done, I recorded my numbers to see what the AP gains were (not using an AP/h add-on).
The EP side had a good number of players inside (approx 15) to flip flags, DC had maybe 10 at most and were far less efficient at flipping flags. EP were clearing and taking the keep in a couple of mins (five at most) with DC taking five to seven as sometimes they only had one person to take both flags.
This has been going on every night/morning for a while now and people have been gaining massive AP gains from it. While I will agree a good PvP group can make more AP/h the fact is that this is steady reliable income of AP which is equivalent to the top players earnings (as per ZOS stats).
I plan to partake in this for the remainder of the time it's possible, as I have said here and other threads I am tired of sitting back and taking the moral high ground only to watch events happen and gain no reward whilst those who take the easy route do.
I will continue to be open about my practices and post numbers/screenshots each morning reporting what's happening. I will not name or shame any others involved and I fully understand that I am placing myself on the firing line should ZOS change their stance on this.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver
