@ZOS Zerging across the tops of gates and blobbing in towers is dumb.

    I have no idea how many EP were crammed on that little ledge spamming AoE, but it was a lot of them and that was dumbest display I have seen lately.

    Even Dee Tick could not smile upon that tactic and they were defeated.


    What... da... Eff...?

    Why would you even do that?

    They do s#!t like that all the time. It's like a challenge to see how many they can fit in ever smaller slots, spamming aoe the whole time.

    Well, I now finally see what has been alleged for the last few days on the forums.

    That's... just BS. I'm sorry you guys have to deal with that.

    I don't worry to much about them, aoe caps getting removed, they'll pretty much all quit because they are pretty awful in solo or small man fights or when they're spread out.

    I cant wait for the zerg busting ability to come in.

    I'm no expert but I'd say that's not working as intended .

    Take 10 players and push for another castle?

    I thought PVP was "dying" and that there weren't enough players left in Cyrodiil, yet people still complain about zergs ...

    Going from multiple full servers to barely filling one with another nerf to population cap would surly show its dying. This has only increased the need for zergs and caused what few raids are left to mass together on certain keep pushes.

    Strange way of looking at things.

    Server caps steadily increased so that everyone could play on the same server, because that's what most people wanted to do, play on the biggest one.

    Caps were increased too high. Performance issues ensued. ZOS lowered them. There were queues before and there are queues now. As soon as one guild breaks 2 more replace them. So many new names everyday, I can't keep track.

    That's the way I see it anyways.

    Fine, I'll defend my mugshot.

    This tactic was suggested by an AD player who stated their guild used to do it. I knew about this ledge from seeing AD do it a hand full of times, but never employed it myself. Personally, I didn't care for it but went along for the ride.

    The plan quickly fell apart, and I think it turned into a troll more than anything.

    As far as I know, zero AD were harmed in the making of this screenshot.

    What were we complaining about again?

    ...You say they took up 3 hours of your time for 2 nights?

    At any point in those 3 hours did you stop to think "Maybe I'm being farmed, I should go towards another keep/faction so I don't have to deal with that" or "I've been getting farmed at this gate for like 7 deaths now, maybe I should go around and come in from the back"
