AP for resources question

LilouAndJohn

I and wifey have come across a math problem we don't understand. How is AP for resources in Cyrodiil calculated? Today we entered Blackreach on XBox EU with an EP duo, that gave us 4.1 AP per resource (lumbermill etc) captured if I remember it right. Then we entered with an AD duo that only gave us 1.7 AP per resource captured.

We have encountered the same difference earlier campaigns but have never understood what causes it. We have counted resources captured by our alliance, keeps captured, scrolls captured, and nothing adds up.

We would very much like someone with the IQ of a Nobel Prize winner and the pedagogical skills of a kindergarten teacher to explain it in the simplest and most rudimentary form of English, so that we play more and work less, which would make Lilou & John a less dull wifey and hubby.

It should tell you what is currently affecting your character in the character page, from memory you get a 20% boost to earned AP after killing a delve boss for an hour.

You also get Alliance wide bonuses for capturing and holding scrolls, your alliance having the current reigning Emperor, controlling keeps in enemy territory, low population bonus etc...

You would have to ask someone who regularly plays PVP for a more in depth explanation though.

Thank you for pointing us in that direction, we thought we had done the math but apparently we got it wrong. Thanks for helping us out!

You get a low population bonus at times too.

If there's a lot less of your faction in the campaign, you get a multiplier to the campaign score and AP earned. I don't know what either of the figures are though sorry.

You get a 20% multiplier for the 'blessing of war' buff, which you get for an hour after killing a delve boss in cyrodiil.

Also, drakelowe, brindle and dragonclaw give an AP boost if your alliance own them. I think it's 8% per off top of my head.

Additional factors:
2x ap low pop bonus.
8% bonus for each owned of drakelowe, dragonclaw and brindle.
Delve buff as above.

Extra extra factors, you earn more ap on a Breton. Not on the game so can't give an exact number!

To add to everything mentioned, there is also Low Score bonus, which is exactly the same bonus as low pop, and both can be active at the same time. It is kinda rare and usually only seen during first days of campaign.

Thanks everyone for clarifying. We appreciate it!
