NecrophiIiac's Pathogen (Anti-Teabagging Set)

GrumpyDuckling

NecrophiIiac's Pathogen

(2 items) - Adds Max Health
(3 items) - Adds Max Health
(4 items) - Resurrect allies 25% faster
(5 items) - Enemy players who crouch twice in quick succession on, or within 10 meters of a player's dead body become infected with a lethal pathogen that does 10,000 disease damage every second until the player expires.

I suggested this set about 6 months ago, and I'm bringing it back up because I think it would be a fun PVP set to use. It may also have practical application. If one of the goals in ESO is to raise the floor and lower the ceiling, then let's implement a set that drops ceiling-gloaters down to the floor if they get too arrogant with their status up there.

@Wrobel if you could make this happen, then you might very well be the first developer in the history of video games to implement an in-game element that strikes fear into gloating victors who disrespect their opponents with that crouch button. Let's make history, and add another fun element into PVP!

Although it's an awesome idea I'm pretty sure people would quickly come up with an alternative way to "teabag" their fallen enemies that doesn't involve crouching...

Haha that's fine. The idea isn't to stop gloating, but to have a fun set that makes players think twice about performing a common type of gloating - and to do it in a way that actually makes sense (an infectious, lethal disease from interaction with a dead body).

As a bonus, players would probably resort to emotes as an alternative, which sheathes weapons upon activation, effectively making the gloater more susceptible to counter incoming attacks from others.

Everyday is chest day for me. whenever I have a moment from battle, you can find me /pushups

You think it would stop tea-bagging, you don't know the internet. This would just encourage it, don't let it offend you OP...

Takuto

Or maybe dead bodies in cyrodiil should by have a small area effect around them that puts a debuff on you causing you to take additional damage from stealthed opponents.

Watching some tea-bagging brat get ganked? Satisfying. Doing the ganking yourself and getting a rage tell from the mewling infant demanding a duel? Pure entertainment.

Sallington

The 5-piece bonus needs an x% chance to proc every x seconds in order for Wrobel to approve this idea.

Rickter

I like @Takuto 's suggestion. its actually really legit and already in the game. If you kill undead/zombies, they leave this red circle on the ground that snares you and causes minor dmg - so the coding is already there in the game, they just need to make it for players

Isbilen

In the Shadowrun FPS on Xbox 360, there was an achievement / STD called Shadowrun Fever that you got from teabagging someone who already had it.

I fully support adding something like that to ESO.

Tbagging is fine. Someone tbags me i just laugh it off. If this set could somehow deter multiple people camping my corpse for 5 mins cos they are terrified QAMs gonna come back and get a rez on me, then yeah, i would try something like this XD

Magıc

Make it oblivion damage so mag build cant just shield through it.

How would this set encourage it?

NightbladeMechanics

Most of the tbagging I see is done by zergling plebs. 10/10 I'd wear this set.

Anazasi

change the crouch to any emote....lets be fair right
instead of 5 piece set make it either a Buy To Play crown store buff / consumable or make it a 1 piece set.
We want to keep the diversity real right.

I feel like I posted something similar a long while ago.

2 Pieces) 129 Health Recovery
3 Pieces) 129 Health Recovery
4 Pieces) 129 Health Recovery
5 Pieces) When dead, enemy players entering sneak within 4 meters of your corpse detonate for 109,751 irresistible damage in a 32 meter radius. On detonation, you are healed for 100% of your health and automatically perform "/lol". This ability has a cooldown of 3 seconds.

Teabaging is a skeleton handshake. It's how we say hi, we're here to kill you and take your AP in a friendly way. It's not a teabag it's a thank you gesture.

Mazbt

Ceiling gloaters? Most teabaggers aren't at the ceiling lol. Not even close. Funny set idea though.

Oompuh

Weak pushups or sweeping initiated

Haha I like the 32 meter radius - this set would wipe out all of Cyrodiil!

I'd rather have a set named Harambe's Retribution.

If they implement it I will tbag everyone for the first time

joecalebsimmons

Just talk dirty to the person. Works like a charm every time. They wont teabag you ever again.

GrumpyDuckling

What d'ya say @Wrobel ?

DemonDruaga

I love to t.bag my buddies that are messing up 200m away from the crown and screaming in TS you can't take that away from me

rendolpheb16_ESO

Teabagging is as killing signature.

Some do it twice, others more ...

GrumpyDuckling

@Wrobel

Want to toss it in for Horns of the Reach?

Kr3do

Dont give this maniac wrong ideas.

Floki_Vilgerdarson

Usually it is low skill, low level zerg kids doing the teabagging. Why waste a 5 piece set to shield your ego?
