The best part of PVP for me so far

I haven't yet tried cyrodiil, only the BG's, but one thing I really like is that I can perform well in PVP and not get many kills. Capturing flags, relics, etc, doesn't simply mean kill the other guy so even players who may not get as many kills can still do very well in PVP and have a lot of fun. I imagined PVP would simply be "you gotta kill players or you'll suck" but Zenimax didn't design it like that at all, so I'm quite impressed with it.

    Cyrodiil is even better. You get to ride your horse 90% of the time there without seeing anyone.

    Sure, if you're the type to run from a fight.

    If those game modes are what you enjoy you'll probably want to stick with the BG's to be honest. Cyrodiil is very much centered around "kill the other guy", whether solo or grouped. Of course if you have a healer toon you could heal for a group and they can do the killing while you keep them alive. But the objective in Cyro is always kill the enemy and take their stuff or kill them while they try to take yours.

    When you go to Cyrodiil, buy a stone trebuchet, use it, and savor its glorious sound!

    Actually not always. You can also play very tanky setup and use sieges to deal damage and break the walls/doors, take the flags. You will be still very useful.

    I am doing my best, but I am not a native speaker, sorry.


    "Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge
