So the weekly endeavor is now Deal 8000000 Damage in Battlegrounds, Cyrodiil or Imperial City, yet killing enemy NPCs in Cyrodiil or IC doesn't count.

What does count?

Looks like may be fishing....

    It's only damage to players when I've checked in the past. It could definitely stand to be clarified.

    I believe this is correct if it says BG, IC, and Cyrodiil. You can only siege in Cyro so I assume that it does not count if you damage structures.
    .
    I have not tried it myself so I cannot say for sure.

    edit: removed, I did not read correctly.

    edit2: this was a quick weekly, login, check for weekly, try cyro with fire ballista (NPCs and Walls, does not count), log out to play another game.

    This, the damage in Cyrodil is much easier as in shoot at the resource guards with an trebuchet .

    I know, as I understand damage in BG, IC, or Cyrodiil is just damage to other players and 8 million is a lot.

    I guess this weekly endeavour was set with Mayhem in mind.

    8M damage is probably a handful of well executed bombing runs ;)

    Pretty sure you have to damage players. Damage to NPC's or structures won't count.

    It's 800k damage which isn't very much.

    Is it 8 million or 800k? Either way not a lot.

    Sure it's not as easy as stand in Alikr public dungeon for 10 minutes as it resets stupidly fast. But for a weekly it's fine.

    800 K is more reasonable and easy doable I say during MM where its lots more zergs.
    I just went fishing while watching YouTube.

    The "do damage with siege" will work against NPCs in Cyrodiil. This week that does not count.

    Those saying "any damage" should validate that first.

    Yep, very doable and quick to achieve. I completed the endeavor in less than an hour on Grey Host.

    They shoulda stated "Deal 800,000 damage to players in Cyrodiil,IC,or BG",or atleast state in hover thing it's players.

    800k damage to players is very easily achieved in less than 5 minutes. Just find a keep that is under attack and set some oils on the ram and surrounding players. It will take only a minute or two of oiling and you will have done 800k damage to players.

    It’s damage, not kills, so very doable even if you’re not good at PvP. I ended up doing over half the endeavor yesterday just doing a few Battlegrounds.
