The emp system is stupid.

Espically on 30 days campaigns, when one guys gets emp he basically will get emp for the full 30 days as other people won't be able to catch up to his ap gains because he's emp.

When you get emp your leader board score should be wiped and your shouldn't start getting leader board score until you lose your emp.

Let other people have a chance for emp.

Stop these 30 days emps.

Or you could step up and compete for the title. It isn't (supposed to be) easy, and you're not entitled to it.

Anyone else other than me think 4 hour campaigns would be a great addition

4 hours to win or lose after which 30 minute cool down

Funny thing is, it's no better for the faction if the emperor would to leave his final emp keep. Either way the faction will lose everything. It's up to the faction to work together and defend everything, the emperor can't do much. It is helpful having an emperor around though, and it's much harder to crown emp then take back a few scrolls so it's generally in the factions best interest to defend it if possible. It comes down to how well a faction can cope against 2 factions at the same time.

Emp can make light work of sieging, meaning an emp should never defend a keep ... He should always be leading the assault on other keeps to ensure he has more than one

I would say if you get emp then your score should stop growing (you would still get for ap even a little bit more then the usual Jack) and this would still let others race for emp title. But its and idea from someone who's far away to be emp

I've seen people with full time jobs get emp, yeah you can no life it but a lot of it has to do with who farms ap the best.

To be fair you can apply that same logic to mmo's in general, still that doesn't stop people from picking up mmo's and successfully playing them.

I had a week off due to a surgery and was able to get it about two months ago. If you start off on the first day of campaign and burn hard, you can get it pretty easily with a full time job, or a little time off.

I think emperor should be removed altogether, it causes too much grief between players that compete for it and the amount of work people have to put into being top is usualy unhealthy.

Just yesterday I was told by a friend that someone was raging at me in /zone chat in Kyne EU for not helping them get emp. I vetted all my main account toons, have left for Vivec and don't even know this person LoL. Just goes to show that the desire to get emp can be very toxic for the PvP community.

Its also kind of unfair on players that are passionate about Cyrodiil but have obligations in the physical world. Maybe a leaderboard that calculated AP as % based on how much time was played could be fairer so that it wasn't just people that have a lot of free time can go for emp.

I would like a different calculator to be used. I would recommend taking a set amount of time that most if not all serious players looking for Emp can achieve, i.e 1 hour of gameplay (your best 1 hour of the day or 1-3 day period) is added to the leaderboard at the end of that time frame or at set times throughout the day. I would also recommend capping the #1's score while he is emp; so that there will definitely be somebody else that get's it next time around.

I think the score should not and can not be based on kills past a certain number, i.e the score benefit you get get towards this goal is at max 50 solo kills to prevent trades and [censored speech] from being [insert censored speech here] and cheating the system. I haven't played in 3 years due to alot of the BS I still see going on in this forums but I figure I should chime in.

I don't see any other reasonable way to keep such a cool and rewarding feature in game without forcing players to no-life this game at a very unhealthy and pathetic rate. As it stands now, if somebody has the tittle they have no life and should prolly be prayed for.
