How does one get to be "crowned" Emperor?

(Question in title) Is it in Cyrodiil, Imperial City, or either one? I wasn't sure if to post this question in PVP section...

    I think (in Cryodiil) if your faction captures all the keeps and you are #1 on the leaderboard then you get the title.

    Basically, you farm it like most things in the game, it helps in this case to be able to play more than anyone else, since your ranking is largely a factor of time played as far as I see it.

    As so often happens in MMOs, it's less based on personal ability and more on how many others you can leech off lean on.

    In Cyrodiil when you are #1 in the leaderboards and your faction takes and controls the 6 inner keeps (around the Imperial City) you are crowned Emperor. If your wanting to get it, be prepared to spend alllll your time in PvP land.

    Yep...when a team takes the six keeps circling the lake they are awarded SUPREME AND UNENDING RULE OF CYRODIIL. Or, at least until another team takes it back.

    When a team wins emperor, whomever is top on the leaderboard is crowned, the top being earned by total AP during that campaign.

    I wish they'd devise a new system. Emperor should be rare and hard to get, but it's only available to AP farmers. In Scourge right now on PS4 NA, about 2 weeks into the campaign, the leaders have about 9 million AP. I'd propose that maybe emperorship is opened up to the top ten on a team's leaderboard, determined by RNG. That's still very exclusive, and takes a lot of AP to qualify, but would open the perk to people who are actually fighting and not just AP farmers...many who account share.

    The emperor is a really hard thing to get, you'll make a lot of guilds angry. You'll get a lot of hate from your faction, only pre determined popular players are allowed emperor
