This would seriously be the last straw with me ... No new PVP content for a year + and now this???

It literally took me 2 full days of playing to get this and to have it ripped away because a few bad apples abused your not so good system is just wrong!

Will anyone else be unsubbing because of this change? Seriously, this is one of the hardest things to do in game if you're not in a Zerg blob guild
(the real problem you need to fix).

This is very not cool ZOS. The day you implement this is the day you will cease to receive a single penny from me. (I've been fully subbed since early release)

So I ask the rest you legitimate former Emps out there, Who's coming with me?

    I'm definitely not unsubbing. This makes the Emperors who got it through little to no work (such as yourself) meaningless, and the work you put in is your reward, not the silly buffs.

    I haven't paid them in months.

    If your former emperor passives was the only thing keeping the money flowing, then that's just plain silly.

    But, seriously, this is an insignificant thing in the list of those things that this game has failed to deliver on. This one at least makes a modicum of sense, unlike the ridiculously low TTK.

    Oh boo hoo, your little, almost insignificant passives are going to be taken from you. How will this game ever go on?!
    The emp passives are the least of my concerns for getting emp, I want it for the color and the excitement of being emperor if anything. I'm still going to go for emperorship at some point when I have the time just because of those reasons. Those passives don't make much of a difference with the new undynamic ult gain.

    clearly not for some people, including all the people who farmed it.

    I got emp repairing walls, so I have no right to complain about the loss. I couldn't unsub anyway because I'm not subbed and I can't imagine there are many left with a sub given the incentives.

    I consider the sub to be just another package on the crown store because I don't think they are counting on it for revenue anymore than the rest of the stuff on the store. If that is true then it won't matter that much that you are unsubbing. There isn't even an exit poll/comment when you unsub, which you would think there would be if it mattered a lot.

    As an old school Emperor who actually earned his Emperorship a half dozen times over I'm happy to see the change. I enjoyed the minor perks as much as anyone else but it rarely made a difference and TBH you could spend far less time grinding champion points now to far greater effect anyways.

    As others have said, there are far worse issues in this game right now. A change that balances the competitiveness while promoting people to play the way the game was designed can't be a bad thing.

    I'll still remain unsubbed however until ZoS gives me a reason to desire to support them again. This wont be the first time I've had ZoS get my hopes up only to crush them again shortly afterwards and I'm sure it wont be the last.

    This is easy to do? I was the first one on last Haderus campaign for a week while soloing/smallmanning, some random peeps from zerg guilds tried to catch up but failed which led DC being under populated, since none of the zerg guilds came into campaign to play... since.. why should they if someone not from their guild is 1st? lmao. I kinda liked it.

    The extra 2% regen to magic and stam can be huge though. Especially when you add CP and drinks on top of that.

    I was never under any illusions of ever becoming Emperor. So loosing that buff isn't something I will even notice, seeing as i have not and will not ever have Emperor rank. The vast majority of players operate without this, and you can do it too.

    Having been an unaware victim of a buff campaign early on, I am stoked to hear the buff servers are in the firing line. The idea of 150000ap to change campaigns scared me a bit, until I saw the great reduction for switching at the end of a campaign. If you ask me, for a casual player just looking to enjoy the action, this is all GREAT news.

    They can take away my passives but they can never take away...

    The First EP Emperor of Blackwater Blade

    (also the emp with the highest score for EP in that campaign)

    Was a little ruthless >_>




    That being said, as a non-farmed worked my tail off with a hostile faction I had just changed to being guarded about crowning me... i am a bit disappointed to lose the perks I legitimately earned.

    Scrub clean the Celarus farmers, leave the rest of us be >=/

    That's the part that is upsetting. The EMP buff is NOT that big of a game changer... why go after those people while there are people running around with 500 CP (a good chuck of which was obtained when CP was bugged those first few weeks.)

    Why not take away CP from those that "earned" it by grinding stuff that Zos did not intend to be grindable?

    I'm just saying taking away earned bonuses b/c Zos didn't intend for the consequences of their system is a slippery slope. Why stop at EMP buffs?

    Sound like most of you are unsubbed already, I'm sure you all had a big ole farewell complaint before you unsubbed. This is mine. That little buff was a nice reminder that I did something in game that a lot of people couldn't do, and I didn't do it on an empty server. Taking away even a small part of that sucks, and I would like zos to know that that's all.

    See you all in the unsubbed line, apparently I'm late to the party.
