Feel bad for daggerfall though, think they just got open has the main target for both AD and EP, given don't think they have has many critical bridges in that side of the map more gates though that are crtical

Each faction has a total of six entryways to their territory, three for access to each other territory. All the EP-AD accesses are bridges, every other access point is a milegate, for a total of 9 access points. It's been balanced from the start, with the slight addendum that some areas of the Nibben are crossable without a bridge. But it sounds like they're changing that, too.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I'm going to ride across all the bridges tonight when I get home. I suspect it will be for the last time.

@ZOS_BrianWheeler is cool always good news from him on eso live

if i understand this correctly they will be for cut off points, so if you cant pass over bridges i assume you cant pass under gates, if they are broken


either way as long as i can break alessia bridge to keep the greenies off it and doing something useful idc lol

might want to make it so that you cant repair id friendly siege is hitting it if it is not implemented already

Will there be a "Builder of Bridges" title for repairing X amount of bridges?

Runschei

All I can think of is all those poor players that will get sniped to death for repairing bridges

D0PAMINE

I can pretty much guarentee that I wont be repairing any bridges.

Gargath

While repairing these Bridges we should be either immune to enemy fire (kind of neutral flag) or have some protective buffs applied, like +100% damage reduction or +100% damage reflection back to enemy, as a reply to gankers.
Without it, no point in repairing and I won't do it for sure.

Also if the bridges cannot be repaired under enemy fire, does it mean that a single siege on one side can stop entire army from repairing that bridge?

As they are currently implemented, they will not self repair over time.

Is there a future possibility to give factions the ability to own bridges and gates, where we could get ticks, and AP for repair?

looking forward to taking time out to destroy every milegate and bridge that I can … just because

Keep them spoilers coming

"Scout Alessia resource" will be very interesting trial, especially for EP folks

So, why wouldn't repairing bridges provide AP.

How does the repairing of the bridge differ significantly from repairing a keep wall/door?

Since bridges are more out in the open than keeps, wouldn't it make more sense for them to offer AP for repairs than even keep walls/doors? (I maintain both should).

Abysswarrior45

I like how it sounds already. Even if the bridges are destroyed most of the time you can either choose to take the long way around down south until you get tired enough of it and repair, or you can repair and assault Alessia immediately. The choke on the goat path will be amazing for small groups who want to farm the cupcake zerglings in cyrodiil and the stragglers will be good AP for solo players. The terrain there should be interesting enough we have good LOS.

Only if drake is cut off though. Just takes a bit more time on horse or using potion, or coward set to go there now. Basically the points and play map for the pvp area just became more predictable.

ok then you can take this as a delayed bridge removal decision cuz im pretty sure nobody will spend tons of gold and even more loads of AP to repair a bridge+ time to repair it while others will just break it down in a few seconds :V

Yes, only reason to repair them would be to bring them down then enemy is on them.

You would need to repair them when no battle is going on

Well... you'll get the chance once, I'd reckon.

ArchMikem

People are forgetting just how narrow the river is at Alessia. You don't need the bridge to cross, people just jump across with their mounts. Its a common tactic to bypass the farmers.

BackAndAngry

EP vs DC most of the time
No AP is surprising as repairing door and wall does provide AP (at a huge cost since the AP you get back is minimal compared to actual AP cost of repair kits)
Maybe some Bob the Builder casuals will bother repairing in prime time or the small night capping groups that dont want to cross the river
Another sniper camp spot
Shoe horning player base even further on how they play over a large area
Nice presentation vid... just to end the preview with an attempt to a positive thing

Would like to know if we get another daily for taking outposts since there will be more of them in game?

fatmanatcomp

No chance of commenting on server reliability ?

fatmanatcomp

Cos , u know , it’s quite important .....

RedTalon

All I can say is RIP bridge and gate house fights.

biminirwb17_ESO

Random thoughts.

People seem to be missing the point that bridges/gates need to be repaired to allow a large force to cross into another factions territory.

Goat tracks are almost single file tunnels, walkway. Not suitable for moving a large force.

The map indicates the status of the "gates" so going to faregyl lumbermill to farm ap will be spotted as you cross.

Holding respawn points in enemy territory will be the prime objective.

LarsS

I have asked it Before when do we get a decent change to the Campaign scoring, thats much more important then this milegate thing.

Already "tested" this too with gank builds. Confirmed! Terrain will be changed? hmmmmm

Alex_Lex

I wanted to become an Emperor after repairing bridges so much.
Next time I guess)

Tendrielle

Well, it would be interesting, if the teleport lines would break, when the bridges/milegates do.

red_emu

I guess the MagBlade Bomber will be BiS in that patch.

'Oh you want to fix the bridge? Boom!'
'Oh you want to use goat path? Boom!'
'Oh you want to use the tunnel under the mountain? Boom!'

Boom, boom, boom.... gankers everywhere. easy AP. No more keep fights.
