    Bummer. PvP needs new blood. Mayhem is a great way for a lot of people to stick their toe in and see that it's really pretty fun.

    The post was buried in news about the Dark Brotherhood event, but wanted to make sure everyone sees this. No event, no double AP til next year. You're welcome PvPers....they are too busy trying to fix their game.

    Good. Maybe now folks will stop with 'nerf this buff that nerf this buff that' BS and scream for what's really needed:

    A SEPARATE BLOODY SERVER

    (Edited for language oopsie xD)

    Someone say a pvp server? Where!

    If you are really triggered by this then maybe you need some professional help more than you need to play the game. Just saying. Take some time and care for your health. Attend an anger management seminar. find a new religion that doesn't disappoint you as much as your current one - which seems to be video gaming.

    Lmao HOW WHITE IS THIS KNIGHT ^^^

    are women even qualified as knights?

    On topic: while I’m super annoyed that the ONE event we get is cancelled... I’m also glad I won’t have to compete for spots in the queue with whiny PVEers who don’t want to die in a PVP zone just because they’re there for their precious ~*feathers*~ or Caltrops.

    You had the event in January, as has been stated multiple times.

    Um, @ryzen_gamer_gal ? You do realize that for THIS event, we were supposed to be getting new PVP-inspired motifs? And that there were other new Alliance War-themed collectables datamined? The “Midyear Mayhem” event from January was not the traditional MM event; it was the result of ZOS scratching their heads to come up with another event to add to that particular Indrik cycle. That Indrik cycle occured at a time when there traditionally were not a lot of events to draw from, and they needed SOMETHING so people could get their precious ~*feathers*~

    Many of us were planning on using this year’s MM to rank up our necromancers. The addition of new collectables was also something to look forward to. I even used some of my annual leave and booked myself off from work for part of MM in anticipation of the event so that I could ensure I was logged in before the campaign queues were stupid. Understand that this is our ONLY event, and that we were looking forward to it. That random MM event at the beginning of the year was NEVER meant to replace the real thing.

    Sorry for your troubles. Do you have a backup plan?

    There is no backup plan for missing an expected event that grants double AP.

    Except playing Cyrodiil twice as long. Well, make that longer, because generally its easy to make AP in Cyrodiil when there are tons of player around and constant fights happening, even on the new campaigns.

    And while ZOS could release those cosmetic rewards for something else, the fact will remain that we should have been able to earn them doing what we loved - playing Cyrodiil, IC, or Battlegrounds, this Midyear Mayhem.

    There really isn't any substitute for Midyear Mayhem.



    Honest question here now that I've given a straight answer to the original question, because I can't tell what your intentions are here. I'm pretty tone-deaf on the Internet and so I appreciate the clarification. When you said the quote above, did you mean to sound that dismissive or am I being tone-deaf again? Is there something you don't understand about how important Midyear Mayhem is to many PVPers? Or are you taking this tack because Midyear Mayhem isn't that important to you?

    A better question is why is this my problem? I am not ZOS. And why is my response of such utter importance? I told one guy that he was being inappropriate and there have been a steady barrage of of comments for me to field about his behavior

    Its your problem because I asked you specifically about your comment about Midyear Mayhem.

    "Sorry for your troubles. Do you have a backup plan?"

    That's your comment. And I can see I'm not going to get an answer to my question to you about your intent in making that comment. So I'm out.

    You have a good day, and I'll continue talking to the people who are actually interested in talking about Midyear Mayhem.

    As you and others have brought up, even with the rough performance that happens everytime,Midyear Mayhem does seem to bring a welcome breath of fresh air into a part of the game many of us love. We can all still PvP, and most will. Just don't like having the midyear event taken away, nor the way the news was delivered.

    GG ZoS yet again. So you cancel the only damn thing you have for pvp players.

    Yes.. your servers and performance have been crap for ages and we all have known that.

    By cancelling this expect 0% better performance... so why are you doing this?

    It might make some sense if you were actually fixing the damn game and servers but as said that ain't happening.

    Yet another epic fail by ZoS... keep it up.

    Since Elsweyr and increased player load there has been increased performance issues.
    Faction lock code was in the game at the very beginning and Cyro ran much better.
    .

    so it should run fine again now, as according to steamcharts 4000 players have quit in the last 5 days.

    Yep but it was never said that would replace July's event....... 😉

    And by your logic DB event happened 3 months ago........ Why are we getting it again? Makes zero sense at all.........

    Things werent this bad off in January

    That's not the point. Issues in Cyro were always present and zos never recalled the event until now. They see that there is a problem, but except by atleast trying to fix the group finder, they postponed the event.

    Zos could also let the event happen without bg.

    Steam numbers reflect steam members leaving ESO not the general population.
    In any event people are leaving for crap performance and bugs, so get off your anti faction lock noise.
