Really? We still have this??? (imp city)

2 people get on one faction and farm bosses, 1 person/friend gets on another faction and ganks anybody trying to join the boss farm!

that sure was fun to harass and make miserable.

ArchMikem

That's really crappy.

VDoom1

That is indeed very annoying.

Can't one be left to just do PvE content in peace. It is a PvP area yes, but it has PvE parts such as the bosses.

generalmyrick

im all good with pvp and pve content, i just get annoyed when the collaboration between unlike colors happens.

Skander

it's a pvp area. Deal with it

generalmyrick

you're toxic. :-)

What does being in a pvp area have to do with putting up with immoral behaviour? It should not be accepted anywhere.
Anyway, sadly IC has been this way for some time, and there's not a lot anybody can really do about it. I've seen DC players lead other DC players into ambushes before. They'd be like "I have to relog. one second", then they'd show up on AD or EP and wipe the other group with their organised team mates.
Further cements a need for a cooldown on entering PvP-enabled areas on a different faction.

i remember back a couple years ago, maybe still going on, these tour guides were a big thing and they would collect groups of nubs and get them fat with tel var and then BOOM! a group of another faction would appear and slaughter the sheep. A couple hours a later, i see the tour guide playing with the wolves! ha! nice tactic, but i can't do it--conscience wont let me. :-)

Been a while back early in my PvP experience and I got in one of those groups. The leader took us to the middle of the sewers and had us hide under some stairs until the boss appeared. A couple of players happened on us and a few of us attacked. The enemy died. The leader got really angry in Team Speak and told us if we broke stealth or attacked anyone else he would kick us from group. Sure enough a few enemy players showed up and came right to us. They didn't even pretend to look for us. The leader kept yelling don't attack don't attack so most didn't. I did and actually killed a few of them. If we had hit them they would have died easy. I know they were horrible PvP'rs because I was new to it and killed some of them. I PvP a lot now and still am only average so they had to be really bad. When I did die I left the group before he could kick me and suggested everybody in team speak do the same.

Live (sometimes die) and learn I guess.

Wait what? You were blue and you helped two blues who were killing bosses so they asked a friend to jump on red to kill you?

@VDoom1 I think you just answered your own question.

I was in Imperial City 3 weeks ago on yellow. I saw some yellows farming bosses and I joined in the fight and then stealthed away to continue my Drake of Blades quest. It didn’t even occur to me that other yellows would have a problem.

I had to fight in the arena for the pve questline and a red was in there. I used single target skills to help kill the named Daedra. I held block and backed away from the red when it was over. I was so happy he didn’t kill me I should have screenshot it. I then ran into the quest area that opens up (the Rat’s “home”).

I can’t believe people are like this in IC... maybe it was the time I was playing. Around 4 am EST, maybe Aussies are nicer?

Alright a better example is the questline. It took me ages to finish it. But yes fine, can't expect to much from a PvP area.

Hehe that is awesome when that happens, even if it's rare. That has happened to me a few times. I was in a delve in Cyrodiil and a yellow was also in there. I left the yellow be and the yellow left me be. Even fought together with single target attacks, in the end we rode of our separate ways.
