Azura's Star [NA] - The Second Coming

Darkmage1337 · September 2014

Our second 30-day campaign is finally here!
The best 2 out of 3 will own Thorn and Azura; who will it be?

Make it red!

Translation: Which side will run away to it and turn it a buff server

Dleatherus · September 2014

you mean like certain 'elite' guilds do with haderus?

EHJ tried to turn it into a buff server but failed because 'the noore' came and turned it into a buff server, the end.

Correction. EHJ tried turning it into a buff server but stopped on the last keep before emperorship because they wanted one of their own crowned (and not me). So they just ditched the server because I left them in the dust when it came to AP.

Then a big yellow group came and rolled the server.

Some blues are planning to do attacks against the yellow. No sign of reds anywhere.

ZOS_TristanK · September 2014

Just a reminder to please keep the discussion to events on the Azura's Star NA campaign rather than previous campaigns. In addition, while we fully expect players to recount the events of the campaign, take care not to name-and-shame players and guilds. As a reminder, here's is what we consider naming-and-shaming as stated in our Code of Conduct:

Naming-and-Shaming: We do not allow posts or threads that are created for the purpose of “naming-and-shaming” other community member(s). “Naming-and-shaming” is the act of creating a post to call out an individual or group by name, and making them the subject of public accusation, ridicule and/or shaming. Generally, naming-and-shaming involves an in-game situation and/or Terms of Service violation, which the ESO Community Team is unable to assist with. A certain amount of rivalry and competitive razzing is healthy for any game community, especially one with PVP elements, but naming-and-shaming goes well beyond that. It typically elevates to a point where the subject feels legitimately harassed. We believe that naming-and-shaming posts and threads can be abused and are very harmful to the community. We also don't feel that publicly calling out or accusing others by name on our forums is in spirit of the game or our community. If you genuinely believe someone has violated our Terms of Service, you should report them in-game via the support interface — do not bring the situation onto the official ESO community forums.

Thanks!

Translation = You were farming ap while <said guild> was taking keeps, and so they didn't feel like crowning emp. U mad?

I'm not even slightly mad. I'm a loner with no real guild ties or affilliations. I was the first person on the server and racked up a decent lead before said guild even showed up.

Then they do show up and start doing their thing and don't even attempt at getting me or the other few guys who were on involved. So I just went ahead with my usual play style and ran around solo killing people.

Let's be honest here. The only people who get to be mad is the group that took most of the keeps and scrolls only to stop because ONE guy didn't play ball and allow them to start the typical emp trading parade.

Case closed.

BRAIDAS was not involved and had no interest in such matters, but from your comments on here, and in your guild chat, you sound a little mad. If you like to play solo, then go solo the keeps. When you realize you can't do that, but still want emp, find a guild (or a player of BRAIDASian skill) to play with. Don't whine about another guild not doing it for you.

That said, if you were simply playing w/o the express intent of farming ap, and BRAIDAS had already gone through the trouble of capturing all but one of the inner keeps, BRAIDAS would've crowned you. But, some feel you were farming while they were actually working to crown and even claimed to have seen you doing so - in this case, BRAIDAS understand their position. If this is not true, and they were just butthurt because they couldn't catch up, BRAIDAS acknowledges their weakness.

Braidas, what I have told you about referring to yourself in first person?

That's for normal people.

BRAIDAS thanks you for the reminder

Guy_Hawksley · September 2014

Well since [AS] already a dead-zone on it's first day, one can only gather that it too will become a buffer room. There is another very remote possibility (and here is where it get's interesting.) Because, now as opposed to having downtime between factions (US downtime vs AUS downtime) it will be non-stop, persistent capping between US/EU/AUS. The faction with the most combined EU/NA pop will cap it. But this is contingent on which faction has the best communication between NA/EU guilds obviously and also get the jump on [AS] first.

If indeed it becomes competitive for PVP buff control then we're back to a ctd situation again. Could this have been fixed by just closing Haderus and BoS and shift populations into existing campaigns as opposed to a NA/EU 30day? Who knows. But if [AS] as an EU/NA combined campaign is any indication of further PVP merging to answer the population deficits it's gonna get pretty crowded very quickly.

Agrippa_Invisus · September 2014

Also, I think folks should understand that PVP populations are going to be lower over the next few days as everyone checks out Upper Craglorn and grinds out VR14 and then replaces their gear.

I don't expect full pops until at LEAST next week.

Decent lead you had a 1K lead on me maybe 10mins into the patch cause I only had 1 quest to turn in. Then we were 500 apart with only roe to go when you suddenly jumped to over 20K lead then you started asking for help to flip it.

I actually don't mind crowning dc emps, have helped flip plenty and even if it wasn't EHJ in the lead we would have helped you if you had helped take the rest of the keeps instead of just farming AP solo.

Btw we in no way wanted to turn it into a buff server just needed ways to get AP and we had hoped grabbing the scroll would actually bring the few EP on out to kill.

Like I said I'm not mad or whining. I just stated the facts. The group had no intention of doing anything but crown emp and since they couldn't get one of their guys crowned they ran off the server.

Me on the other hand, I had a great day on that campaign leveling up pvp rank and VP.

But.. most importantly.... I Had fun.

Thanks. I initially was following them around for the most part and putting down camps/repairing walls.

As soon as I saw that instead of capturing the last keep for emp they went to capture the 2 home keeps and middle keep for EP, I knew that they had no intention of crowning me and wanted to pass time. So I left them and began killing EP and AD

Sakyo · September 2014

Also at the time Roe was the last keep no one had the 50K ap needed to even crown emp yet so why push it then?

WRX · September 2014

Had to start posting on these forums.

Not sure where you guys were?

But in all seriousness, myself and Decibel have no intention of turning this into a buff server. Only reason we did what we did yesterday was because certain blue guilds went about their typical business of day capping essentially undefended keeps. Shocking. SO I dropped my homework, got the team on, and proceeded to roll the map all the way back on blues side (leaving Arr, Farr, and KC blue so red knew what happened, and hopefully encouraging red to play of this server). As we left we asked zone not to run all the scrolls, but I'm sure the state of the map is pretty bright right now.

It'd be great to see the top guilds from other factions on this server as well.

I had the 50K needed and began to push for it, but that group pretty much told me "good luck, we're out". Also I believe you can still get the keep and then whoever gets 50k will get crowned.

When you guys eventually showed up the DC guild had already left and me and a few guys I ran into were the only ones still trying to fight back.

WRX · September 2014

Yeah, however there were a lot of dB defending Roe (I think?) aganist whichever guild that was while I was away. Seemed to still be 20 and maybe more blues against our 8-11 when we attacked though.

I can say that you were indeed at our emp keeps atleast, helping to take them. dB said you were always the last one standing lol

Asgari · September 2014

So is this thread going to hit 60+ pages of the same repetitive blabber?

"You day cap PvE losers"

"You night cap zerg balls"

"My guilds more tactical than yours"

"My epeen will surly crush you"

"I'll clam slam you into oblivion"

There, just saved you all 60+ pages of wasted nets

Feel free to fill in anything i may have missed ...

We were actually closely matched for a little at the last keep. but then a lot of DC left to grind as they didn't see any hope in sight. Then we lost the keep and four scrolls really quickly.

It was a lot of fun though! I like small battles like this because my FPS stays capped and I don't usually crash or run into lag/delayed buttons.

Cody · September 2014

[Moderator Note: Removed moderated quote]

the name and shame policy is a complete joke. I would not blame you if you just decided to quit the forums. its pathetic.

Cody · September 2014

please don't tell me its a buff server......

guess ill find out when I go there

GRxKnight · September 2014

Here's hoping everyone will fill the campaign when they hit v14 and turn this into a fair and balanced campaign. No undefended keep taking or unapposed fights because let's be real...no one wants a chillrend 4.0

Braidas · September 2014

[Moderator Note: Removed moderated quote]

then its as BRAIDAS thought, thank you for corroborating and appropiately shaming said player

decado0024_ESO · September 2014

Yep we are trying to keep Azura's star legit. Please keep the cheaters off my server.

Huntler · September 2014

Just curious, what do you consider cheating? I can't keep track with people on this forum. Apparently everything is an exploit or cheating even when its completely valid, not bannable, not prevented by TOS, etc. At this point there are people saying using impulse is exploiting.... (note I am a healer so no impulse

)

From what BRAIDAS has gathered, cheating is when you win, skill is when the other guy wins.

Huntler · September 2014

Thought so

bitaken · September 2014

We were suspicious when you jumped 20K AP in 15 minutes. Made no accusations - but at that point we were not going to flip the last emp keep. We capped a scroll - and went back to Thorn for PvP. I hate PvDoor - we were kinda hoping this could have been DB 3.0 but it did not look like anyone was going to try it out.

Then..we caught wind of some kind of AP trading going on...and said - yeah let's go to Thorn.

It's funny that people have so much butthurt that they have to whine and cry and point fingers on here though.

Once in a choke point myself and 2 others oiled the entire EG raid 2 times and got about 15k in less then 2 min.. Its possible.
