Another Idiotic Event - Forcing PvP is Horrid!

    got my 2 tickets staying down in the sewers, there are mini-bosses. I followed 2 other players, together we finished a tough boss who had the difficulty of a worldboss, rewarded with 2 eventtickets.

    Killing some inhabitants of the sewers also rewarded me with 6000 tel var stones. For 5000, you can buy a Hakeijo Rune, and sell it for 5 to 10k in guildstores.

    Took maybe 15 minutes.

    Now I have to get ganked over and over just to make my daily tickets.

    You dont even need to run a high risk of PvP.


    Best way to avoid Imperial City PvP: Dungeon run of White Gold Tower or Imperial City Prison.


    Oh, you just wanted to complain because you dont know anyone to carry you through a dungeon. No problem. Heres a great way to get through the city or sewers with as little risk of ganking as possible.



    Step 1 to avoid Ganking: Port into your Factions Sewer Base.

    Step 2 to avoid Ganking: Ask in Chat for a group running either topside or sewer.

    Step 2A to avoid Ganking: Stick with the group, be a team player and stick around and help out a little if you got what you wanted and others are still seeking what they need. No one likes grouping with someone thats going to cut and run the moment they have what they came for leaving everyone else high and dry.

    Step 2B to avoid Ganking: Oh no! No one responded. What ever shall you do? Drop into the sewers in crouch and silently but quickly move to the first room with a Boss. Don't worry. Its actually quite close to the base. Just avoid the mobs along the way the best you can and keep an eye out for the Flag Bosses. You wont want them to see you. If you dont see other friendly (green bar) players. Just wait. Someone will be along eventually. Team up on the boss, itll make the whole thing go by faster. Typically these first bosses are a breeze with less than a million HP. So you should be able to kill them rather quickly unless you have terrible DPS...

    Step 3 to avoid Ganking: Once youre done with the group quickly move to a district closest to your Faction Base. You can easily google this but typically its the districts corresponding with the overall direction of your Factions Home Base. Drop back down into the sewer entrance and quickly stealth up/crouch and move swiftly to your Faction Base. And now you can exit back to where ever you ported in from.

    This. Just got 2 event tickets in the sewers. Helped several others kill a boss. Even got some Tel Var. So far, this event is fine.

    pvper prolly think the same about pve events....you dont have to participate in EVERY event if you dont want to....and ZOS keeps a somewhat decent enough balance.

    i think most of the players doesn't care about many of ESO events, especially new players and very very old ones.

    Yeah I gave up on the mounts as well after collecting the first two. It’s just too much of a pain in the arse. They’ve got other things to spend tickets on now like furnishings and whatnot so that’s where mine will be going if they’re any good and I don’t have the recipes for them.

    Don't the dungeons drop tickets?

    They do, but whining blindly seems to be more fun...

    Yes because getting bursted down by 2 frags and 3 streaks in 1 secs with impregnable armour and empowerd ward on seems legit.

    Just get your two tickets in the sewers outside your base and go on your way. In 2 hours of IC PvP I got ganked exactly one time and the guy couldnt kill me because i rolled away. Im wearing heavy armor but no defensive sets just a normal build. Just stick to the small bosses outside your base in the sewers and leave the rest of us to enjoy the one *** event we get for PvP.

    Same post every time this event comes around, eh?

    The last PvP event allowed me to make tickets without PvP.

    I didn't get the motifs as drops, but that is fine. I was still able to get the berries though.

    I'd say they should remove pvp from this game it is better of without that *** combat design.

    I think overland is shallow, uninteresting garbage, where you can kill mobs with just a single breath. Should they remove overland from this game, because I think it'd be better off with content that actually requires players to think about what they're doing?

    But during PVP events, PVErs can be killed with just a single breath. Does that make PVP shallow, uninteresting garbage? :p

    They like these events because it lets them gank PvEers as easily as they claim overland content is.

    It’s not even a PvP event, it’s both.

    I’m guessing you’re purposefully ignoring the posts saying that all you need to do is run one of the two PVE dungeons on normal and you get 2 tickets? You don’t need to step foot in the PVP area but you just want a good little troll I guess.

    No, you don't.

    Do you really "need" multiple Indriks, in multiple colours?

    Don't do anything you don't want to do.
