I've been on this game since day of release with some big breaks here and there, mainly the first year. I've never played in Cyrodil apart from a few goes in Imperial city during events. Anyways this weekend was checking out the monster sets for sale when someone asks for as much help to defend aleswell so i figure what the hell and travel over, we defend it against reds takes literally about an hour to repel them back and then we start taking beakers finally get inside and take it when all of a sudden this yellow indestructible zerg train comes flying in, up down the stairs they go with no clear purpose. About 80 of us chased them out and then went straight into another battle with reds with the yellows just running and jumping about in the middle of it all. I loved PVP and will be going in more but come on those zerg units are just ridiculous.

    Massive battles are part of the deal, and every tool they give to help with one problem (like a 40+ stacked group) creates others in PvP sadly. Did you try one of the no CP campaigns, in the past they were less zergy? Anyway, glad you liked Cyrodiil. Many people swear they won't but get addicted.

    Yeah man was hilarious, it's like I've discovered a completely new game. I didn't explain myself very well, Us and reds had a fairly equal number of players I'd say about 100 each which is why we were in a stalemate for so long. This yellow unit was only made up of about max 20 guys, they weren't even attacking anyone but they basically were indestructible, delt damage near them and just constantly kept moving. Maybe zerg isn't the correct term but not exactly sure what you'd call it.

    I've been slow to get on the PvP wagon myself, but it is quite fun once you get plugged in. Solo or small scale can be rough to get into. Better to be the Zerg than get zergged down. Lol!
