An opinion against current PVP

Let's keep this topic constructive please.
In fact, if you can argue against what I say I'll be happier, since I intend to play this game for the years to come lol
Anyway.. When I'm Cyrodiil, I have the feeling I am, generally speaking, dying too quickly. In this game, you 2 shot someone or you get 2 shotted, you zerg another zerg, you get zerged by another zerg. All in a few seconds.
The armor doesn't matter, you can survive for more than 5 secs only with a shield and possibly weapon swap with resto. I'd like to have more competitive battles, where you have to use more brain and skill (your skill, not the skills of the trees lol).
I hope you got what I mean.. Help me like the game more please.

    some things I learned is, if you see a zerg, get out of its way. everyone can block to a degree, a combination of blocking and rolling can save you sometimes. if a zerg death is inevitable, try to take someone (preferably an enemy) with you. when attacking from a keep, pull back every couple shots so that you don't get sniped and when you do start getting hit, back up and heal then go again don't just stand there and die when you don't have to.

    It sounds like you need to change your approach.. role playing really helps here.. if it was a real battle and you were that untested, would you run into the vanguard?

    Probably not... hang back and be more opportunistic until you gain some confidence... or change to a support role, which tends to keep you in the back of a pack.

    I dont think that is what OP is talking about.

    Everything in pvp takes long to get to, and then if u do a small group either you or the other dies like in 2-5 secs

    Same with Zergs

    its not like we have like a real pvp fight, where we have to keep at each other for like 2-3minuets before finding a winner.

    Would be awesome to have like a Arena like place where all our attributes somehow get boosted to 50k health and no healing skills work, that way we can go at each other like insane and see who is left standing.

    Yeah, I do think things are way too far apart in that zone.. but still don't discount being tactically careful. I see people go running off all by themselves constantly... well, they're sitting ducks most of the time...wait for back up. How many minutes spent running to ones death could have been better spent just waiting for others. Or better, wait until you see the clashing battle icon that lets you know that there are probably some team mates there when you get there.

    The Blackwater Blade campaign is supposed to be a non-VR campaign, yet the NPC's are too challenging at VR5 and need to be lowered in my opinion.

    Yeah, I was speaking generally, if you die, you die in 2 sec, if you kill, you kill in 2 sec. Maybe in keeps you can hide for a bit and then go out, but that's the only available strategy thing.
    A suggestion above is to wait an enemy that is alone... Well, guess what happens if you find one? The battle last 2 sec lol (unless you aren't 2 tanks). This isn't competitive, this is just who hits first than spam a few skills.

    PS: sorry for this 2 secs thing, I'm trying my best to explain, consider that I'm not english pls lol.

    I took my lowbie into BB and go a whole 60 extra health. I tried relogging, rejoining.. same thing. He can die in record time and can get off about 5 skills before he's out of all resources (against VR5 trolls). I'm so glad they added that campaign. It was really packed too. I saw a total of 0 people whilst I was in there.
