    It's not lazy or selfish not to res someone when they can easily res themselves at the nearest FC. If you want to blame anyone for being lazy and selfish, it was actually those who waited for someone to res them when they could have been back in the fight three minutes ago.

    With the removal of FCs, I expect the attitude toward ressing people will change, don't you worry.

    I just want to relay the echos throughout the PvP community.
    Had so many talk about this.
    Everyone is so psyched. Well done, and thankyou, ZoS!
    If your group is bigger than 6 members gain 75% damage reduction.

    Write this on the back of your box and see how many sales you get!

    You won't get any new PvP players until this archaic AoE crap is fixed.
    I for one won't resub until:
    1.) You fix lag.
    2.) You remove AOE caps we voted against.
    3.) 12 months have passed (this is how long we've waited for you to 'get with it')[/b]

    well in theory couldnt people still refuse a rez and just lay there dead leeching ap from combat ontop of their dead body? i noticed ap ticking when i was waiting to see if my group was gonna push back to my body or not lol

    wrong, ganking is going to be a very viable tactic...small group PvP will be fun too. Just need 7 or 8 to take a resource, with other factions not being able to respond as quick as before.

    So few rezzed back when fc's weren't used as much. It was so annoying to hear the "Oh, I'm out of soul gems, sorry". They actually thought we believed them too(they never owned one). When I got below 50 gems, I started looking for more and sometimes wouldn't go below 100...

    Ok if they are taking FC's out of the game, that is a pretty big blow to any offence are they doing anything to lower the defensive side?

    Defense is hurt even more. Once the keep shows as under attack, they cannot respawn in it/transit to it, which means any sneak attack against a keep deep in enemy territory will automatically succeed since defenders will have no way to get there in time.

    They may sell empty soul gems for that much, but not full. I can sell a stack of full Grand Soul Gems on the spot for a lot more than that. A full Grand Soul Gem costs 900 gold at the NPC merchant. That's 90k a stack.

    If you are in the middle of a fight in Cyrodiil and are in desperate need of soul gems, which are you going to prefer? Empty soul gems that you have to go fill, or full ones that are ready to go?

    True, but many players are to lazy to fill the gems them selves and just want to buy full grand soul gems so will pay more.

    I don't think this is going to make pvp more fun, unless you really enjoy running from place to place. I think a lot of people are going to get frustrated when they run for 10 minutes to get to a battle, die, and are faced with another 10 minute run only to die again. Time will tell but this doesn't seem like a recipe for more enjoyable PvP...

    Yes make it so you can use the dead person's soul gems to rez them. Only use yours if the other person doesn't have.

    There are two craftable sets that their bonus is in regards to reviving. A fair amount of gems drop from dungeons and mobs, not enough maybe to make it always cost nothing, but there are drops out there.

    I left a pvp guild for its excessive bloodporting and hardswitching and a day later they do this....
    This will not end bloodporting, but limit it a little. Die > revive at wayshrine > transitus. I think it's a good move to remove FC's.

    Glad I'm ready for this, still feeding my fast horse Flash and Fatroll is always there for pve and resource gathering. :)

    There is the Assault skill for some speed. I still haven't morphed mine but already on one of my wykyyd's outfitter skill loadouts.

    I started this weekend with 300 soul gems, I still have 240. Did quite a bit of reviving. Also dinged v9 and my plan was to make an alternate purple armor set for reviving. Now I have to decide do I want the one that speeds it up or returns 2 soul gems. *ponder*

    I've seen some in guild stores, what happens to these if not trade-able?
    Whoever placed the Forward Camp into the Guild Store will be able to remove it.

    Thanks for making the ballsy calls, there is DEFINITELY hope for ESO's future :) Now please bite the bullet and REALLY (not superficially) nerf bat swarm and impulse and AD's extreme overpopulation(limit their pop to DC's pop +/- 10%), you know it needs to be done, just getter done plz.

    Thanks again for your wonderful changes!

    Will have to wait to see how it plays out but one thing is for sure this will slow down game play in Cyrodiil drastically. I know something had to be done with fc's just not sure this was the best option. Time will tell I guess.

    Well not sure I like this change but I will see how it plays out. They really need to make rezzing more viable without forward camps.

    - cut the single player time of rezzing by 1/3.
    - Add an new skill under Allliance War Line - Support that allows you to rez yourself once every half hour.
    - Add an new skill under Allliance War Line - Support that allows you to rez 2-3 players within a small radius.

    Without improvement to how players currently rez, this will make defense too easy. Also, seems like it will kill questing in enemy territory.

    I can just imagine all of the WTB rez spam.

    I only think they completely removed them because they couldn't get it so you could only respawn at them if you die within the radius. That would have been a better change but whatevs

    In any case the removal of forward camps will be a good and bad thing. The assault of keeps will all have a higher chance of failing. People think its all a good thing but will be back here complaining they are out of gold from buying soul gems and they don't get enough from reward mails. But now that it will be harder to oil kill anyone it may be better for the assaulters when it comes to running through a breach and taking flags.

    Also zerg balls that just can't be killed will also achieve higher success at attacking or defending a keep. They didn't do anything to curb those yet. We'll see.

    We'll see what happens this week.
