I may have been wrong about this update for PvP

I wasn't happy about the prospect of having to grind tons of CP and months more of not having access to most of my gear.

But, I've found that with the amount of CP (~1410 at the time of the update) I had my character does fine. Sure, I would like a few more passives but they won't add that much. Also some of the new passives (especially safe fall) are great.

Also the game play has been smooth. I no longer get "lag stunned". My abilities work even in big fights (my favorite PvP aspect). With the old sets and new changes i have plenty of weapon damage. Many of the old "super tanks" die very quickly now if they don't change their approach. On the whole everything seems more balanced (though not perfect). Personally I don't miss procs (although I used them because they were strongest). I've just reverted to pre-proc approaches and the do fine.

On the whole I'm enjoying the game now (but still miss the mythics, the monster sets, arena weapons etc)

Wonder what other people think.

Totally agree with you OP 👍

I am really enjoying this patch so far. I am cp 1200ish and don't feel like I am at a disadvantage at all. Though I haven't fought anyone with over 1600 cp to my knowledge.

I am still a little annoyed at having to grind again after more than 7k hours logged already, and I have a little gripe about the green tree, but it's true, the gameplay experience and lag are much improved, and those are the most important things by far.

I have 882 and, honestly, aside from being squishier than recommended I was able to grab everything that I needed from the CP tree. There’s a few things that I want that I can’t grab, but nothing 100% necessary.

I feel the same OP and no matter the CP of the person I'm quickly learning its what build they have equipped that makes the differences more than the CP. I got my rear handed to me by a CP 650 person the other day despite being CP 1240 and I honestly wasn't even mad. They did very well against me, and inversely I've been able to tear through CP 1,600+ players without feeling I was lacking anything.

CP can't have everything at all times... thats the beauty of just four slots. If they go all out dps they are weak, if they go defense they are slow to kill others. Some might go more balanced. But the new CP system forces players on a slide scale... and thats good balance.

Yes I agree. I have over 7k hours also, (I don't actually want to know how much although my main alone has ~ 260 days played),

But, I've decided not to grind. I'm just going to get the CP through cyrodil, they add up over time and you can even run experience scrolls to get them faster.
