I greatly enjoy my 20-minute Deserter Penalties on all 9/9 characters due to the Battlegrounds Infinite Intermission Lobby bug, where the match never starts.

Solo. Only 1vX can truly show my skill

I run in group only with my guild during our weekly runs, other than that I just run solo wherever action is, usually it ends in 1vX, XvX or XXXXvXXXX fights when the zergs pass by.

I just go to Battlegrounds because it's more convenient that riding a horse into Cyrodiil. I'm only around CP480 so I don't need to be running into CP810s all over the place. That would be no fun. But Battlegrounds can be tough too when facing an organized group who is also armed with powerful weapons and monster proc sets.

Highly coordinated small group to fight effectively

Somewhere between small group and co-ordinated large group.

Not true zerg, true zerg is where there is no leader just people collectively deciding on the same target.

I participated enough to get the achievements. Can't say I enjoyed it that much.

I enjoy the ending of it the most. I generally enjoy a casual romp in the battlegrounds but during mayhem i actually find pvp to be extremely annoying so i actually do less pvp during mayhem and wait for the normal game play to return.

I helped my friend get emperor bc they helped me when I went for my achievement last year, and that's all the pvp I've done so far. I was considering getting grand overlord at some point for myself but it's too much disconnects, combat bug = running around cyrodiil instead of the usual horse riding simulator, and home campaign Vivec is always laggy + long queue. BG's group finder is borked and has stamina meta so there's not much point there either.

This. After waiting nearly an hour to get into Vivec and finding a nearly dead/empty campaign....
This event has made me seriously consider leaving the game entirely, or at least taking a long break until Zenimax resolves the ongoing bugs. This is paid-for content that simply does not provide any real value, consistency, or satisfaction.

On a positive note, I did score a decent amount of Tel-Var one evening lurking the districts.

-spending my time in endless queues
-coming in a Bg, just to find out it is broken, quite after waiting almost half an hour and get a time and AP penalty for another 20 minutes
-"enjoing" the lemmings run of hundreds unexperienced casuals, breaking my home-campaign
- event ends, homecampaign goes on for more then 14 days, why???? reset the campaigns now
- it is pain all the way

Had to vote for “other” because my way of enjoying it is doing a mix of things.
I solo play, join groups eventually, do town quests and scouting/capture ones when the map is quiet, and so on.
Doing the same thing over and over makes the event dull for me.

Zerging for AP, guild runs for fun as we tend to mess around a lot.

I am cancelling my sub because of events like this and a multitude of other reasons. The game is a nerf haven full of vanity items and has become a complete laggy farce! Waiting for over an hour to get into Cyrodill is just plain stupid. Thanks for nothing ZOS and I am very happy to say that I will not be giving you my money anymore...let alone buying your next chapter/dlc cash grab. You guys can't even keep the lore together anymore.

Slaying elf *** is most fun while praising Pelinal Whitestrake.

Hackdirt has so many heavy sacks....

Usually avoid Cyrodiil during the event, so I tend to wander in the sewers to search for cunning scamps.

I get this huge thrill every time my daily scouting mission for tickets is over, when I turn it in. Leaving Cyrodiil is *awesome*, I enjoy that part immensely.

I'm not a fan of PvP but I did enjoy the scouting quests.

Zerg! Number is power

Got the meta-achievement then farmed AP, currently 297 on my campaigns leader-board, earned 3 million AP and went up 11 alliance ranks. Just enjoying Cyrodiil while people are actually playing it, normally it feels dead, nothing better than 2 big groups meeting for a massive zerg where half the people disconnect, crash or have a seizure from the strobe-light of effects at 3 fps.

i participated in BG's only, and for the sole purpose of getting my last few characters to level 7 to unlock the skill tree actives

Zardayne

Zerg! Number is power

I pretty much run with the Zerg. I love the mass RVR battles. I also prefer the zerg because as a magden running alone, recovering from a gank is near impossible. By the time I break stun, try to heal from their 2 or 3 abilities that took me to the brink of death, I'm then left with the Shalks countdown going 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3....dead. Even if I do manage to whip out a can of whoop ass on a complete noob NB, they just vanish and return 2 minutes later to begin the dance of death all over again.

I'm one of those guys who [snip] didn't contribute much to the kill and mostly use no-skill crap.
