Dont be fooled by the event. Its only for a few. You might make 10 or 20k telvar a day. But there are people out there that have already topped 500k.

Then we'd have to call Cyro that too.

It is funny how PvPers constantly talk about how they prefer PvP to PvE because they supposedly like the added challenge and unpredictably of PvP combat. Yet when ever they get the chance they horde into giant zergs so as to make sure the people they pick on offer no challenge or unpredictability what-so-ever. What's the saying, actions speak louder than words? I think that definitely applies here.

Anyway, my advice to people who aren't in some massive zerg ball and who are just trying to get a daily quest done for the box and tickets, spare yourself the annoying stupidity of this event and just do the dungeons. Seriously, it's just not worth it. The entire zone is basically designed to be a death trap for zergs to hunt you down and murder you in. So don't even give these _____ the pleasure of killing you 10 vs 1 so they can _______ to their own _________. I know today was the last day I'm subjecting myself to it. It's White Gold Tower the rest of the event for me. They can just have that ____ hole. I'm done with it.

Just as likely to be PvE players grouping up to avoid being easy targets. Reality is there is probably both, and some groups that are a mix.

Some of those big zergs contain a fair bit of PvE'rs that are tagging along hoping the group will keep them alive. A guild I am in runs events in Imperial City at least once a week, usually a few times and we never get a full group. Now it fills quick and not with the usual names. I'm guessing that is happening in other social guilds as well.

I took my thief in shortly before the event to bank all six daily quests. But otherwise I'm going with dungeons all the way.
Even then on one quest I kept seeing likely ganker wannabes. But maybe not, for in practice I got out of and back into stealth quickly and went on my way.
For clarity, I was on a near-max-stealth build: Khajit/stamblade/vampire/5 Darloc Brae/3+ Night Terror/Wild Hunt/3x Swift. I did have a combat Mundus stone, however, rather than The Steed.

Perhaps. But it doesn't change that PvPers supposedly long for exciting, unpredictable and challenging combat - and that is what draws them to PvP they say. But yet every time they get a PvP event they go out of their way to ensure no such fights ever happen and that it's all just one massive zerg ball steamrolling people who have no chance to defend themselves - which is the opposite of challenging and unpredictable combat.

Some PvP groups will do that, but not all. Probably shouldn't lump everyone into these broad groups as it seldomly, if ever, paints an accurate portrait of events and people.

Well, from what I see going in in Imperial City right now my generalization is more accurate than inaccurate. So if you ask me, they have only themselves to blame for these observations I have made.
If PvPers wish to prove me wrong - the they are welcomed to do it (in fact I rather wish they would). But until then I'll be keeping to these opinions. I'm sure there are exceptions to the rule. But they are few and far between in my experience.

So you know for a fact that the people you are seeing are the same people who have made the comments you’ve mentioned about PVP? I’m curious as to why you seem so sure they’re the same people.

Yes, I know for a fact many are.
And it's a crock - this whole idea that what draws people to PvP is challenging and unpredictable fights. And every PvP event that happens proves it's a crock.

Are you like matching their game screen name to their forum’s screen name and remembering their past comments? Or remembering what they’ve said in zone/guild/whatever chat? Comments made on a Twitch broadcast? I’m not trying to ask a gotcha question, I’m just genuinely curious.

Ppl wanna farm telvar mainly, pvp isnt the point during this event. Min/max telvar is.
Double telvar + a ton of pve speced (ezy to kill) victims gives u a lot more telvar when the rest of the year where u face the same names and skilled players all day long =long fights/less telvar/high risk to loose telvar = Inefficient.
