I took about 2 months off ESO after being really hardcore into it (school and all x_x) and now whenever im about to launch it the thought of *ughhh I bet im soo behind on champion points, I wont even bother* goes through my head. Anyone else feels this way? I love the champion point system <.< feels like a burden when you take time off T_T

(people will say otherwise but in my mind I look at it like this. -2 CP a day, 60 days passed im 120ish points behind- if its a casual player im about 60-80 behind-) and the bonus EXP for CP only stacks up to 4 days :/ so I cant even catch up.

    All I really do is login and use up enlightenment up to not fall behind but i'm losing interest w/o any decent rewards for pvp, new content, or even working features and zones we had to play only a few short months ago are now not worth the time to grind in with reduced experience and no new itemization.

    I think the people with 120 CP are still trying to catch up to you.

    You're hardly behind. I bet most players have ~120.

    Geez, I thought you had close to none.

    I'm only at 143 :( I guess i'm trying to catch up in both respects.

    Being behind isn't that big of a deal imo. I took a break too and I've been doing fine regardless.

    I would say with 170ish your probably still in the top 25%. i know i have 130ish, and most people i talk to are around that number. Dont worry your fine m8 =)

    Some people in my group are at like 180 or something and an another one is at 190 now.

    But most players are between 120 and 160 :D

    It stores up to 12 days of enlightenment.

    I don't think many people are going to feel behind by having *only* 170ish CP.

    I think CPs have made the game less enjoyable. People are all like, "CPs CPs I need moar, I only have X need moooaarrr nao" while at the same time kind of hating the stuff they have to do to get their temporary CP fix. So they're not just playing the game for the fun they get from it; they're playing to keep up with the Joneses, or better, to oneup the Joneses, but doing it without much personal pleasure. To me, it's a strange thing to pursue, but I can understand the conundrum-- if you fall behind you become like a wart on a molerat's butt: anemic, alone, and unworthy.

    I dont like having excuses, I dont wanna be forced to say *I'm dying because I have less CP* or someone else to feel that way

    Huh, thats weird. You took 2 months off and had 170 points when you left? Strange that because its only been about a month and a half since we got the Champion System. Something doesn't add up.

    I haven't hit 100 CP yet after taking the first month off on holidays.

    The trick to the champion system is to not worry about it. It's only a grind if you make it a grind, and grinding anything ain't fun.

    TTK is now so low that the diminishing returns of higher champ points is rarely going to be the deciding factor in a fight until people start unlocking the OP high level passives. which will require at least 360 CP invested.

    Plus you were clearly OP, so just see it as a self imposed handicap!

    I came back to the game not long ago after a really long break and only have 90, so don't feel bad. I don't grind and just pvp or play low level alts. I really don't care about it. Oh damn, that guy has a 1.8% better dodge roll than me!

    I play 14 hours a day and have a champion rank of 160. Don't I deserve more then players who log in and out and are bored and don't like playing that much? Don't I deserve 1,5 % more stamina regen, witch is nothing but still makes me feel good?
