I want to say thank you ZoS for the No CP PvP along with double AP experience.

SamTheSwan

There truly is no other experience quite like it, 33 unique names on my combat metrics death recap. Dying to potatos encasing, resource poisoning. It is only this incredibly unique combination of promoting zerging (suddenly I'm worth 3.4k AP instead of 1.7k, that means the 33 people might get 100 AP each!) and removing the passives that allow players to counter such activities (CP into roll cost reduction to get away from negates, actual cost reduction CP to help offset resource poisons) have caused me to really hate the PvP on this game at a new level, and caused me to spend most of my time this week studying for midterms rather than playing the game.

Good luck on midterms! Look at ZOS putting players' life success over in game success, bravo! Hats off to you ZOS!

On the other side of that coin, the zerglings' lack of mitigation and healing and sustain cp make even the tankiest among them die really quickly when confronted with a smart small group. Sounds like you're either doing something wrong in your groups, or trying to solo v zerg.

I think he's just too used to being carried by CP. But what do I know, I just play here lol.

If they were going to run double AP on trueflame, they should have made it a 30 day event or closed the leaderboards.

So your perma blocker with infinite resources, has to do more then hold block and throw out a few AOE's. Bummer.

Domander

Ah, it's great, welcome to needing resource management skill.



Also, sarcasm translates poorly on the forums.

I have dived into zergs with a LA magicka build and survived all week.

The CP disabled week has shown me the cheesiest builds were made possible by imbalances in the CP system. That's not to say the game is fixed without it, but it's 100x better. At least at present.

SamTheSwan

The issue isn't resource management. I simply wanted to give my opinion on promoting large groups running down solo players, in a form of satire, because well I love jokes.

@KenaPKK You're right, nothing is more satisfying then being able to actually burn a block tank out of stamina and I have truly enjoyed that. My biggest grievance is really that wherever I go, I always seem to pull double digits worth of enemies. I.E. taking faregyl farm brought 16 AD after me, when usually 1-8 would show up.

@Ackwalan how'd you know my secret build? Perma Blocking Magicka Sorc in 5 piece light, build video will be posted next week.

On Azura since it's not CP they need to gives us the stat increases from CP but leave the poInts and bonuses themselves disabled.

They also need to either tone down poisons or disable them entirely. They are completely broken without CP and really have no place in such a campaign

If it wasn't for the double ap I would have not stepped into cyrodil. That said, its nice to get the ap.

But poisons are the only way to run someone who´s not a potato out of resources on azura?

Its not the non-CP thats causing the zerg down of other players. I play on AS all the time and it is noticeably more zergy of being run down by mobs of players. I think it has to more to do with people who do not usually PvP showing up for double and their best bet is to ball up tight.

@SamTheSwan then continue playing in Azura's after the double CP week ends and numbers return to their usual levels.
