    Tel Var is the only good source of Hakeijo which isn´t PvP. There is no such thing as a 'PvP skyshard'. Much stuff in IC is geared towards PvP but it´s not 'PvP stuff'.

    Bottom line is there is stuff in IC which is very useful for solo players, and there is also a bloody questline not marked as a group questline for Mara´s sake. I can see what they tried to do and yes you can work around it; but it is still idiotic to keep it the way it is now. Getting zerged to death in 2 seconds when I´m doing a solo questline and losing currency?

    :'(

    Respect for the solo questers and the solo fishermen. But that loss of currency on death keeps IC from being flooded with "farmers" who won't fight. I can only approve. They can buy their hakeijo from a PVPer.

    Occasionally, I see someone without backup and go to gank them. It's pretty common that the CC doesn't work but instead of fighting back they try to run away from me. If they don't want to try and fight I actually let them be. too merciful?

    Well, IC can be a nice change of pace. I just don´t understand why they put a solo questline in what is frankly basically a ganking zone. Also they could have made parts of the sewers off limits for PvP. Risk-reward is perfectly acceptable, but it should be optional.

    No: I'm level 23 NB (Still am) I will seek out all DK's and other heavy shielded types. To attack each and everyone. To the very best of my abilities, of course. When I failed, it's a valuable lesson. Not to mention, I'm more hands on kind of experience. It’s how I learn much better, come to find out.

    Yes: when others are a lower level than I. Then I will ignore or spare. I wonder is it possible to gank a slaughterfish and get way from being slaughtered? That be so awesome, sigh I unsure.

    I spare them all of the time

    Because every time I try to gank someone I end up dead.

    It's sad really.

    I love all the classes :) but when on my nightblades I sometimes let noobs go without them ever seeing me. Only other place is when I see someone doing the quests I won't gank 'em.

    If you're at a keep, resource, or fishing you're dead<3

    Why fishing? Defending the poor helpless fish? XD

    That means 80% of the time you aren't facing a ganker...

    Difference in viewpoint, I still completely disagree with you but it is what it is. The last bit, when doing the quest just do the quest and accept that coming out with any currency at all is a win. If you are serious about currency then do not be distracted by trying to do quest lines. Keep the two separate.

    I have to say the few hours of fishing time I have put in try to finish up Master Angler, not once did anyone bother me even though people would occasionally pass by. I was actually pretty surprised by this.

    Peeps (Horde) in Wow were never that considerate when I was doing a few of the fishing achievements lol.

    The currency isn´t the major issue, it´s just icing on the crapcake - the issue is if I get killed I have to release and run into the city again - perhaps to get ganked by the same people.

    I guess it´s just too late to do it, but it would have been nice if they could have put in a solo instance of IC. Remove the Tel Var/keys for all I care. Just let me play that bit of story without needing to look out for magbombs.

    Or how about we put random Oblivion portals in the middle of Cyrodiil PvP fights to "encourage PvE" B)

    if the issue is the story then yes, I'd sort of agree.

    As for oblivion portals? sure, just another environmental hazard. I tend to do both PvE and PvP roughly equally so I'd enjoy that.

    Sometimes I let clear kills go because they look harmless / adorable. Like innocent PVE:ers getting skyshards or doing quests in towns. But not always :trollface:

    Well, it depends on how strict you take the wording "Ganking".

    Whatever class i am on, i will be sitting in a traffic spot - like for example Chalman gate/bridge. If you come through, i will try to kill you, and build up a 1vX situation, if you have more friends coming. Most of the time, my initial attack will come as a surprise to you, as i might be coming from around a corner or something like that. So i guess that could define as ganking.

    Anyway - if i have already killed you once on the same spot, i will let you go. I get no satisfaction from pounding the same person again and again.

    Low levels/low CP at most will get killed once and then I leave them alone to get skyshards etc.
