yes, i play every night. Snipe monkeys are pretty easy to kill. reflect, stun, etc. I kill them first with my bow. No, I am a NB, Also snipe spamming doesn't lag out game play.

I like when you spammed snipe at my nightblade on the Ash mine tower, while the impulse spammer blues took the point, yet somehow I got back to Nikel with my hide intact.

I strongly disagree with this. FCs made bombgroups reappear faster - but it also meant that the people who got killed by the bomb group could be back faster.
If both had to /rel and come back to the fight, the bomb grps will use maxed light horses and definitely run faster then the pugs, small mans, guild grps (or in short, all players with less organization) and will just waltz through all people trying to stop them on the way.
Add the effect that as long as the bomb grp has some numbers left they can move back on their path and "hoover" up all dead players.
With a camp in the keep all the people maning the outer wall who got killed by the rushing bomb-grp can come back and try to continue the fight. Now they have to /rel, reorg (against all those Legolols) and run back. By that time the bomb grp has captured the keep 5 times over.
bottom line: if you didn't win against a bomb group using FCs (on both sides), then you definitely won't do so now.
Theres no reason to assume people that aren't in bomb groups dont have fast horses or maneuvers. Bomb groups have less casualties than non-bomb groups, that hasn't changed. Healing didn't suddenly become unimportant, Barrier is still powerful, and 3+ batswarms running through you with impulses and whatever other unblockable aoe will still put you down if you get caught in in it. They haven't done anything to the aoe cap nor have they implemented those new Alliance war skills yet that would help put a damper on bomb groups. They can still do what they did prior to FC removal and the 'disorganized' will be the primary ones running back on horses. My own alliance is still bomb grouping and taking keeps.
The non-bomb groups wen't through more FC's than the bomb groups did.Edited by demonlkojipub19_ESO on November 10, 2014 2:07AM0 -

I think hes doing something wrong. When I spam Lethal arrow the target ends up dying.
I was hitting a WW for 1200 non-crit. Poor guy. Either way my lethal arrows still hit for a good amount, and for 1.1s cast time I don't need to use anything else save refreshing the poison arrow dot. Killing people with bow is easier than in 1.4, you just can't expect any powerful stealth attacks anymore.0 -

Highlights:
1. 1:32 the zerg arrived. 1:35 you can see the Ping rocketed to 800+
2. 2:40 I started swinging and slashing. You can see on the add-on that nothing's registering with 300+ ping.
3. Again at 3:20 I'm standing behind an enemy, swinging, slashing, everything.... nothing. I was bashing my keys too and I'm not moving my sword at all...
(in glorious 1080 60fps YouTube nonetheless!)
Thank you for the video, very entertaining. I like how that killing blow was me bashing you to death. bahahahaha

decado0024_ESO✭✭✭OK guys lets be honest here, all factions have the zerg balls that spam impulse all them, yes including your faction. There will always be fails who don't know how to custom build their char and will sit back in the assembly line and spam bats -whatever.
The issue is not spamming AOE , the issue is ZOS literally hemorages money any time they make any progress on cyrodill. The original program developers were too expensive to keep on the team. The fill in guys are useless and all they can do is put band-aids on. ZOS is a corporation that is here for one thing only, money. The reason they care so much about PVE is its cheaper. They don't need to deal with server loads and balance issues in PVE. PVE content can hold however many ppl that are playing it with no issues. PVP can only handle a few hundred at a time depending on the campaign ur on. Be glad we get anything. Be jaded that crap is still broken and just hold out for something better.D'ecado V12 Nightblade

FayaSDL✭✭Sadly the "lag is not in pve" is not true.
I left cyrodiil after AD got low pop bonus with equal pop (and 1 more bar then blue) just to find myself in a pve area and still my latency was over 300.. spiking to 999+..asked a guildy whats going on and he confirmed, mass zerg battle.0 -

Actually, we aren't. If you were going to take the colloquial term we'd be more ape than monkey, but really we aren't either, since neither of those terms is used in taxonomy. About 6-8 million years ago we shared an ancestor with today's apes, such as the African Gorilla, and like today's apes we are classified as hominids. However we have never been ape or monkey, since those are colloquial terms used to describe varyious primates, and have very little to do with today's biological classification. Along with orangutans, chimpanzees, gorillas, and bonobos, we belong to the Hominidae family.

It's still possible with the right skills and skillbar setup.
I can regularly crit for 1.6k+ with snipe and can launch 2-3 before the first lands. Unless they're extremely alert and block/dodge-roll before the first one lands then it normally bye-bye before they can figure out where it comes from.

✭Impulse monkey spamming should be like chat spamming. Too much and you get kicked to login.
I was swapping skills and assigning skill points when the game kicks me out saying "YOU'RE ABUSING THE MESSAGING. STOP SPAMMING."
so.... not sure how well that's gonna work.

because it's a bow, the only thing its capable of is blocking and shooting arrows.
