Sotha Sil NA PC Thread 2

gabriebe · July 2017

I really wish they'd revamp the Nik/Chal gates to a long, double-doored gate/mosh pit similar to the bridge. Riding to the bridge as DC is painful.

Well...any salt aside....
Can we all agree that we're drooling at the prospect of all these PVE'ers about to be flooding Sotha?
I almost think we should decree certain "potato zones" for each faction...places were we know if we see crossed swords it's feeding time.
Ahhh....nothing brings everyone together like a holiday.

I decree that all blue keeps are potato zones during the event - basically no change from before the event. You're welcome.

Thank you for your contribution.

Avalinia · July 2017

I was so excited to get back into PvP while the event was going on.

Until it actually happened..

The content in PvP should be fun right now, instead my ping is constantly over 1000 (At the very least), and I consistently crash. Even if I'm playing in Battlegrounds or hanging out in Mournhold.

Please ZoS, if you're going to run events in PvP, at least have a smaller event happening in PvE as well. It's not fair to the people who regularly play PvP to have to wait in over an hour worth of queue time, or crash constantly because a bunch of greedy PvE players want to get goodies.

gabriebe · July 2017

I'm happy to have greedy Pve-ers in Cyrodiil. All those people riding their horse in 14-15k health with light armor builds... It's a ganker's dream come true.

No impen.

83.2k ap tick. Solo bomb.

Happy Midyear Mayhem everyone!

Raknosh · July 2017

I had not pvped in a while, but tonight was pretty damn fun! Seen a lot of familiar faces and made more AP than ever.
For once, I was lucky and was one of the few that got no loadscreen or crash. That server wide group bug is really dumb tho...

I was at that massacre (back off towards the vendor {everyone knows a bomb is in bound}). I actually laughed and asked if anyone got your name. That deserves a 'Well done, sir\madam" (even if you are in DR).

Saw Xiar saying complimentary things about you in zone.

That's probably all that needs to be said.

W0lf_z13 · July 2017

the lag ...........

me waiting for a skill to actually fire

Sigtric · July 2017

My first time back in Cyrodiil in a while because I've been busy with new toons and such, but last night was a blast. Fun fights had against both opposing factions.

WhiteMage · July 2017

Currently first in Sotha Sil, after quite a bit of no-life-ing. Then ZOS decided that it was about time I had my second infinite load screen of the day, so I get to sit here, bored, browsing the forums as my place in the queue moves slowly from 321 to 1. It's been about half an hour now and my position is 289. What a day.

Raknosh · July 2017

Yea idk why zos thought it was a good idea to kick us out of cyro right away, when we crash/infinite loadscreen. With the queues being so high these day, that really sucks...

Malibulove · July 2017

Xarxes is better than sitting in the Sotha queue during primetime.

That camp is absolute chaos and doesn't lag at all, and this is coming from a guy who literally queued into Trueflame twice ever because he thinks CP sucks.

NBrookus · July 2017

Shor is chaos too right now. It's pretty awesome.

The best part of the videos people link is watching what's actually being cast.

In the opening 1 minute 30 seconds of that Nikel fight, there was:

1 Blazing Shield
3 Puncturing Sweeps
1 Radiant Oppression
5(?) Toppling Charges
1 Devouring Swarm
1 Proxy Det

That's 1 DPS skill every 7.5 seconds. It's about a single 3 skill rotation every 21 seconds if you factor in the combos.

If any DC ever wonder why people say they Zerg, watch some of the videos like the one above. You'll always see about a dozen doing the work while another dozen + a bunch of green names surf it.

The player recording is a 50 CP tank who started 2 weeks ago as a damage soak, which if you think about it, makes that video even better. .__. Tfw you guys think everything is about dps. Smh

who knew this vid could get even better, thanks for the explanation it was certainly an eyeopener

EdmundTowers · July 2017

Nice to see a Sotha with all factions at similar pops, but the lag is just terrible. Couldn't even switch weapons for like 30 seconds during dethrone today. Then I got a 15 min load screen trying to respawn at the FC. AND then I get stuck in 190 person que when I restart game. T_T

From listening to my group in discord I heard the rest of the fight was an epic 8 frames per second lag fest. Is this what people deal with all the time in Vivec?

Drakkdjinn · July 2017

Why is EP going full potato? DC's PvDoor Zerg takes all your scrolls and y'all just bend over and take it South just to die anyway?

Shocked...just wow...how dare them. AD would never go BRK when DC has emp, missing Roe and/or Ash. Never.

Oh wait...

Besides this damn event brought in a lot of newbies who just don't know better.

Borelock762 · July 2017

From Daniel --

"Dear TM,

Please post a video of the Ash defense just now."

EdmundTowers · July 2017

To Daniel -

"If you're under attack you can get off your siege you know, you don't have to die on it."

Adenoma · July 2017

I'm not one that has a dog in any sort of Sotha Sil opinion on TM - they're all nice folks to me so far - but does he have any room for braggadocio? Heck, do you have room given that you're a daily member in that morning blue zerg that made the last month of the campaign before reset so unpleasant.

Munavar · July 2017

Seeing that I was not around this afternoon as "Life happens", I am now going to have to ask around tonight when I 'see' the 'guys' as there are no details here.

Who, What, Why and When; the basis of sound reporting.

The most impressive thing in this screenshot is the warden kill quest progress.

Adenoma · July 2017

I swear that the warden quest isn't bugged anymore. I'm getting credit for non-KBs on wardens. Just doesn't seem to be a lot of folks playing warden.
