Can we settle on crutches? This isn't meant to be a criticism of a singular person on their PvP skills. I mean, you have to admit it's a bit ridiculous to have alerts telling you when you should execute, dodge roll an incoming CC, etc. Part of one's skills is being able to recognize the animations and the resulting effects, and act accordingly. If it's just hand-delivered to you in a giant alert, it feels a little too easy to the filthy casual that I am.

I will admit though, it takes some skill to figure out what is going on through all this on-screen mess.

You mean tips like this?



Because the base game has had those Alerts since forever, they're on by default as part of ESOs tutorial.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure mods like combat cloud don't even pull anything extra out of the API they're just re-skins of the default UI warnings.

Can we all take a moment of silence for the Daggerfall Covenant? They can't even hold emperor for an hour and a half when both factions are awake. All is fair though, I mean I'm sure they are tired from P v Door night capping all night.

I'd like to thank Passifest for keeping me alive while I play in a mediocre manner.

To be fair, I don't think many of us care for our current emps to want to defend them.

You're okay m8.

This is what awaits me at the end of every working day (early morning US time I think).

Here's some clips of my magblade being carried by pocket healers.

Those clips make me sad. I wish I could find more reliable duo/trio partners during the day.

I simply just employ an argonian slave as my healer.

And how long would your faction last being zerged down by two factions at once?

Valla had emp for days. Just sayin'.

Is Valla playing on a different toon? Haven't seen an AD bomb-blade in a while now.

AD & EP definitely last longer during prime time. But don't worry DC, I hear there's a pill for that!

I'm actually kinda shocked to see this thead is still open. The campaign is a little more balanced (minus every night as a DC night cap). I've noticed more EP around lately too. Has another guild joined over? Or am I delusional and simply seeing things wrong?

Feels more balanced this week, but still kind of a downer that the entire "balanced" period of play during primetime has to be a dethrone push around the west half of the map. By the time that happens, it's usually getting late (for my party, at least).

You're delusional.

There have been very good fights in prime time of late on all factions. I'm quite surprised, normally DC logs off when faced with determined resistance only to log back on in the middle of the night.

As someone whose sleep pattern is forever changing, I find it fascinating how people can have a vastly different experience/perception of the campaign, depending on when they play.

e.g. This is what greeted me when I first logged on today:



And that's not the first time this week I've logged on to an all yellow map.

I guess it can't be done because people would find a way to take advantage of it, but it would be interesting to see an animation of snapshots taken of the campaign map every 20 mins or so, for all of the previous day's action. People might get a totally different impression of what actually happens in the whole of the campaign, versus just what happens when they happen to be playing.

Sotha hasn't been fun for quite some time.

Adenoma

I like the constant censorship.

EdmundTowers

Anyone been in the Sotha sewers lately for this double telvar event? What's it like down there?

Eh, sorry about that. We were looking for the DC fwiw. After it seemed like AD had overrun it we started campaign hopping.

Adenoma

I don't understand how it is fun PvP to show up to resources, not push keeps, and just sit inside of them when you have emperor, numerical, and organizational advantage. Why the druthers about pushing us during primetime vs nightcapping? With the way the map has been the last few nights it would be just as easy for DC to do it earlier in the night and make things interesting rather than show up to every single flagged resource with double digits before they even flip.

I'm just amazed that there's a player base that can be supported off of that sort of gameplay.

Adenoma

Campaign is dead like this thread.

Let's give a great round of applause to a certain DC guild who sends 20+ to zerg down 4!

EdmundTowers

Rest in Ripperoni Sotha.

Anyways, DC got both their scrolls thrown in the lava yesterday:


Me and 2 buddies jumped one of the scroll runners and I picked up the scroll. We ran around killing about a dozen dc for a bit before I threw it in the lava next to the other scroll which was already in there. I don't know how that first one got in there.

Here's a video from last night, before AD was dethroned. 13 of us in group plus a few others defending Brindle for almost half an hour before more than 50 DC (keep an eye on Miat's player counter) finally overran us.

Emp denies zerging. Emp shows up to two folks at a resource (weirdly, because they had keeps flagged), gets killed, comes back with nine, kills us. Emp denies zerging.

Up is down and down is up.
