Time for the Imperials!!!!!!

Metavente

So been its been 3 years with the Three way war in Cyrodiil , when will the 4th faction finally get to unite and fight on the fields of Cyrodiil!!! what do I mean? as in Imperial race chars get their own faction in Cyrodiil to battle the other 3 alliances. I think its about time they allow this atleast on one of the pvp campaigns!!!

This won't happen. I would prefer them to spend most of their time trying to fix the farce that is PvP in this game.

No need to create a new faction. We just need to be able to hoist the Jolly Roger.

• A group forms outside Cyrodiil. Can be cross-faction. Crown specifies the group is "Black Flag."
• Group enters Cyrodiil and spawns randomly at one the the Imperial Forts around the map. Not sure how queuing could work, but they should not count toward faction population caps.
• While in Cyrodiil, the Black Flag group is everyone's enemy. They can attack, or be attacked by, all 3 factions. (Are other Black Flag groups enemies as well? Not sure.)
• They can capture keeps and resources. Black Flagged objectives are worth zero points for all factions.
• Black Flag groups can capture scrolls, but not place them anywhere. Instead they will time out as normal.
• Black Flag does not have access zone chat.
• Respawn points are at large Imperial Forts, which now have NPC siege merchants. However, Imperial Forts are not connected by transitus shrines or wayshrines.
• While under a Black Flag, players do not earn standing toward any leaderboards, do not receive RftW mails, and cannot take emperorship even if they have all the ring keeps.

All this. and yes, I think Black faction should be "attackable" by other black faction groups. Need to be completely rogue and group loyalty based only. Could make for some very interesting dynamic in overall PvP.


Black faction NPCs could be mercenary/bandit type NPCs, Imperials, or Daedra/undead if they wanna go a Worm Cult esque route.

I think there should be a factionless option
locked to one guild
increased guild membership
increased guild banking
not capable of owning vendors outside cyrodiil

A 'griefer raid' running around would ruin PvP for everyone outside of said raid.

Given the resounding success of IC, really across the board, game play, media reaction, player base I would agree.

Its a no brainer

Has been a 4th "alliance" since launch. It's been me the whole time. You know how many DC players always try to fight me while in Cyrodiil?

You can already do this with any of the factions, and some do. They are capped at 24 players. Factions can (and do) stack raids. And if that's not enough, with a rogue group, you have the option of 3 faction teaming up and killing them. If the entire server population can't beat one group... I dunno what to say.
