Shor PC/NA "Official" Discussion

Durham

I do not understand the need for a group more then 12 in pvp... There is no PVE content that requires this.. Also make some of the abilities affect just group players this would greatly reduce lag...

I’ll be curious to see what they do with Earthgore. Saw several times where we’d throw negate or novas or anything at a ball group and it all immediately gets silenced.

I understand this, people want to run with their friends or guildies.

But what I don't get is why when they only see 2 enemies they can't just back off and only send a few.
The other night what made my team mate mad when there was 2 of us trying to take back Glade, was that at first 2 EP appeared, and we thought OK finally a good fight, but they sent them as a decoy and jumped on us and ultbombed.

I suppose that is funny to them. But literally since that particular group came into Shor on that night, people just kept leaving, people signing off in zone chat. It will kill this campaign. We will all be left with Vivec--which I like, but many people can't play at all due to lag.

This campaign is Earthgore roulette.

I logged in last night about 10 eastern. 1 bar blue, 2 red 2 yellow. Looked at the map and saw 1 resource burst and no other indication of fighting at the moment. Looked at Vivec pop locked across the board.

Decided I didn’t feel like either scenario and reinforced my feelings from the night before after chasing resources which wound up being just resource swapping. Or waiting until a There’s just a baiting fight with a ball group that never goes anywhere other than getting “outplayed” or ambushed from behind; rinse and repeat. Or you show up to a resource to see a bunch of your faction there chasing people around the tower in a LOS game as they get picked off 1 by 1. I wondered why I am playing this game.

Time to catch up on other games I’ve been meaning to play. GOW comes out soon and so does Monster Hunter Worlds.

Earthgore carries "large organized groups" like proc sets used to carry stamina users back in one Tamriel all the way to morrowind

Rickter

Merry Christmas, Shor!!

Get fukked earthgore!! This is about 20% of the reason i dont wear proc sets: if a proc set is any good, its guaranteed to be nerfed! LOL when yall gonna learn? If it feels too good to be true, then it probably is!

Doesnt do me any good in a duel for sure, but its awesome when im Xv1ing Shor!!

Yep, I’ve had to take a break for a little due to work/rl and in the past couple of days since coming back I’ve found playing solo/duo and occasionally medium scale during vivec off hours to be more fun than Shor primetime, and that’s pretty damn sad. Shor off hours is now a complete graveyard with small groups of nooob EP pvdooring scrolls. Used to be some fun 1v1s or very very small scale on off hours that was all good natured and more often than not each faction would have its tri keeps and scrolls.

After becoming the two time back to back forum muted champion in the elder scrolls online gaming community, ima be frontlining some questlines I never beat and begin decorating my pariahs pinnacle whale house I bought. I will be sure to hop and help the map when it’s hot but atm it’s just logging on to watch enemy factions log off in droves when the fighting begins. And vivec has lag that really only favors PBAoE meat grinder comps.

Datthaw

The way I play in vivec. "Oh our keep is undersiege? I'm gonna go the other way and look for an open field fight no lag there"

jaysins

I'd like to thank LOM and their small man of 24 for the fun last night. Because of you we were able to get all three of our guild mates who have Shor homed to the top of the leaderboard. Good fights last night.

Once I learn how to edit clips ima drop a hot shor mixtape

Rickter

Hey folks, back from break. It's a helluva end-of-the-year for me in the coming years. . .

Wedding Anniversary > Christmas > Wife's Bday > New Years

within two weeks of each other lulz. . .

in any case, vacay is over and I'm ready to get raids back and going in Shor. From what ive heard and read, Shor is quite the different landscape. Funny what two weeks will do to a campaign.

Not drawing any conclusions but I look forward to seeing you all and getting back in the saddle. got a dope new look too

A_G_G_R_O

@Rickter come back.... you can blame it all on me....

jaysins

Known Sh'tters is happy for your return and we shall we show our appreciation for a returning foe the only way we know how . Good luck.

Congratulations on getting married!

Rickter

Last night was pretty fun! Lots of three way action. The night started off with the usual suspects (EP) capping a rather undefended map. DC mobilized and took back our home territories. 4/6 keeps in and the momentum basically stopped but we were sitting in a good spot so not complaining. around 9:30, AD organized and made a significant push. I took Requiem over to Farragut to try and get our scroll back and TM had something to say about that when we got north of Chalman. We felt robbed because we came back for the scroll and almost had them all down but they camped and respawned and we had already burned through ours so that was a wrap.

All in all, it wasn't too crazy and generally the Shor I remember.

One thing was very amusing: It looks like <Dreadlords> had a split, or branched off and are now essentially rebranded under <Torment>. The same names under a different banner. Claimed they only had 8 but I never saw them in a group less than 14-16.

Whatevs /shrug

I had 9 in group at our peak. I think that's going to be the norm moving forward. We lost a lot of momentum it seems and I think you all can expect groups less than 12 from now on. I'm not actively recruiting either so I just don't see that number changing any time soon.

All in all, good times!!

Kartalin

Was a tough fight for the scroll, we had 9 there and EP had some there as well.

Got some salt from some stambros we 8v5'd in a tower just prior to that. Please send us the approved list of ultimates to fight you with.

Glory

Played on DC side for the first time, had some fun and not fun fights.

The only EP i saw was @Chrlynsch and there seemed to be more than 9 of you. The AD group escorting that scroll once it was south of Chalman was over 12 for sure.

W0lf_z13

last night was a little odd at times lol .... got into some 1v1's that almost seemed to not be 1v1's and then some 1v3's that became 1v1's when the others went to go to something else and some fights where some people just stopped fighting mid fight lol ... was interesting to say the least... felt bad at 1 point... was having a good 1v1 with an AD that i think was running around with Kita .... then a DC jumped in from no where ... tried to pull my last attack as to not have a 2v1 but the ad died ...

Rickter

I had an awesome 1v1 with a guy named Black Zoom outside of Chalman. Vujk was there and he just let us duel which was awesome. much respect. My victory was short lived though. @A_G_G_R_O rolled up and that was that

I ran into that guy several times over the last few days; had never seen him (her? dunno) before that. Great player!

No worries man, it seems we frequently appear to have greater numbers than we do.

Video of the scroll fight


After that I think it's understandable a few more AD showed up to escort. Definitely a good fight though, was getting dicey once we had a couple go down.

Edit: Good kill you got on me, very nicely timed coming out of the healing ult

Based on that pic I think you should rename your guild KISS Army

joe.smith21b14_ESO

I wanted to kill the scroll carrier so bad last night. There was to many of you dc protecting him. He had a healer close to him the whole time and with your numbers my window to kill him was very small. Y’all win this round but I’ll be back

A_G_G_R_O

@Rickter this sh## wasn’t the same without the sheriff of DC and his deputies around. Congrats on the wedding I also got married in 2017, best of wishes to you and yours.

Bro that was <Iron Legion> - came in force and kinda took it upon themselves to be the defenders of Ash against the AD mobilization. Their selfless vigilance over the western side of the map gave us opportunity to maintain pressure against the EP in the north!

ahaha "the sheriff of DC and his deputies" - I like that!! Congrats on your wedding man as well and thank you for the best wishes bud. Brothers born on the battlefield!!

Rickter

speaking of sheriffing. . . lets talk about this triple EP zerg that was on last night. Particularly <Priase the Sun>. Committing the same offenses as TM (initially) only on a LARGER scale. I'm almost willing to give them a pass though because they were a bunch of sh*tters. TM definitely has that style down pat much better than PtS does.

It was REALLY good 2 bar across PvP up until 10PM EST. LoM brought in "a few other guilds" to help Crown his man and DC basically overwhelmed the remaining keeps. It wasn't long after the coronation though that AD and EP lit just about half the map and it was frantic battle after battle to maintain that emp. I logged at 10:45 as I had pretty much lost steam hue hue hue.

Shor is no longer a poor defenseless little boy. No, Shor is a man, all grown up with a full chest of hair!!!

Durham

It was a little rough for our group of 4 we grew to 7 later in the night but were hammered by battle group styled guilds.. We finished with about 140k last night .. We do better when shore is not as busy.. the night before was 220k night..

We might grow our numbers but it's hard to find people with our mentality... Carefree PVP ..people that do not get butt hurt when they die... Just fun PVP not all serious ....we did that in DAoC some younger people never played that...

I tea bag my own group sometimes in the middle of a fight keep in mind some of us have played together for 15+ years

usmcjdking

I had a bit of fun last night albeit I think I was solo defending the emp keeps.
