Will Vengeance be the new PVP model?

    Skill and good builds should be rewarded not restricted, with a dose of common sense of course.

    Do those things go together though? If I wanted to know which of two players is more skilled I would have them both play the very same build or at the very least the same build options. I would most definitely not allow one player to bring better gear to the fight than the other.

    Your builds and your ability to play them are part of skill.

    What you are talking about is 2 people's ability to play the same build.

    "Your" builds are irrelevant during Vengeance. You play "Their" builds...which is not the ESO I personally enjoy. Making my own builds is 90% of the fun IMO.

    Indeed.

    If we wanted to play a Hero Shooter with template builds then we would be playing Marvel Rivals, etc. But that's NOT what we want to play and it is definitely not what is appealing about ESO.

    Making builds is of course part of the game. There are so many possibilities, and how to solve the build related performance issues? Making the game simpler could be a solution. Maybe classify gear differently so that not all combinations are possible. Now too often builds are overpowered and can't be trusted. Having to deal with that should become history.
