PvE Delve XP Buff

Matthros

With killing a delve boss in Cyrodiil giving the Blessings of War 20% AP buff for an hour, how about a similar one for killing a delve boss in overland but a 20% XP buff for an hour, only applies to overland, and gets removed when you change zones?

If 20% is too much make it 10% which is the group XP bonus for players who are running solo.

Good idea, and with the new CP/XP run makes sense to add.

Pve already gets like 280% xp buffs + enlightment

How about giving that to pvp?

Well, to even things out, you'd have to win a PvP duel or a Battleground match...

I don't want killing delve bosses incentivized. I find delves are already too crowded. It is kind of a downer to try and enjoy going through a delve, only to feel lucky if I get a light attack or two in on the boss before other players kill it.

For PvP, it already gives buffs with the blessings of war bonus and also keep bonuses.

War tortes and those crown alliance scrolls (which are for alliance skills and rank only) can also be used for additional buffs, and I eventually see those crown alliance scrolls being offered in the daily rewards like the experience scrolls are.

Since there is no leaderboard for XP earned in overland content, it would be a win win for everyone since we all want to level up for all content.

I can see the issue with people crowding a delve waiting for a boss, but the idea is to kill the boss and continue on in the zone.

?? Everyone gets that, guess whose fault it is if they don't put it to use?

Seriously PVE gets an insane amount of XP Buffs and Modifications:

• Curved gain to accelerate leveling up to CP 1800
• Enlightenment, 400k XP a day that is earned at an increased rate
• Random Dungeon Bonus XP rewards. This used to be queue for one, travel to FG1, complete. Has since been patched but still easy
• 2 months/8 weeks of the year with events featuring Double Experience boosts
• Craftable 50%, 100%, and 150% XP boost potions
• Free 50%, 100%, and 150% XP boost Crown scrolls from crates or daily sign-ins.
• Said Boost Scrolls and Potions that actually stack on top of event XP boosts
• Training gear
• Group XP boost bonuses
• Quests on quests to complete for XP and rewards
• Rings of Mara

There are so many ways to easily level up that I get furious when people say they need to grind in Skyreach.

Yes, PvP should earn more XP don't think many disagree here.

In fact pvp doesnt. Pvp misses out heavily on training gear.
Good luck leveling in pvp only

Why so complicated solutions? ZOS should just make some weekend XP events (only XP buff, nothing more) on regular basis.

Or better still why not just play the game? It isn't a race to 3600....

I didn't say they did. I'm saying you're preventing yourself from getting xp bonuses in a game that is 90% pve.To complain you're being blocked from that is just plain silly.

Delves in Cyrodiil are far more dangerous than those in PvE zones because you can run into enemy players in a confined space. Therefor it has an added incentive else nobody would go there.
I'm not a PvP player but I did do all the quests, delves and skyshards (including the ones behind the gates) in Cyrodiil. The delves were by far the most tense.

You can get 80 minutes out of an xp potion (30 minutes base duration) if you invest in the provisioning drink passive(adds 20 mins to the duration) and the CP food and drink passive in the craft tree (adds 30 mins to the duration)

You can get another 15 mins with the Nord racial passive.


It gets bad enough trying to get some leads from delve bosses without adding more reasons for people to go in and kill the bosses.

Not against the idea OP is proposing but move it to something else like the Dragons/Harrow storms that people complain they can't get a group for once people move on from the zones, give people a reason to re visit the harder overland content that people wanted so badly then lost interest in.
