When epic battles occur in Cyrodiil, all the doors magically seal shut.

Cathexis · July 2015

Dear Zen,

The lag in Cyrodiil is totally unplayable. Earlier this evening, Azura DC tried to take Chalman. It was the last keep we needed to dethrone ep. We successfully downed the outer and worked the inner down to 27%, despite the fact that at 50% inner we could no longer place seige. EP arrived, and started repairing the outer and then the inner while we were seiging it. DC damage completely stopped registering. At 27% I was no longer able to fire my trebuchet because of the lag. I watched as the inner began to slowly climb back up to 90% before DC forces called the siege a loss.

We should have dethroned emp and taken that keep. We easily had enough players. Even when we were down to only 2 functional siege we continued to smash down the wall.

The lag gets so bad that damage stops registering and certain actions and skills become unusable (charges, snipes, siege). Doors all over Cyrodiil became unopenable.

Zen, you have to fix this.
You have to fix it soon, not on update 7.

Its not playable.

Zen knows; Zen doesn't care.

When I can't enter keeps... I do a little dance.

Escape, weapon swap, /reloadui, and sometimes I run away and get ported in...

Lag is stronk with u my little padawan..

Imagine inside IC - 2 blobs spaming purge/healing springs muhaha - that will be the true lagforce, and they said that they tested it with 40 bots, 40 bots shoting single target spells which no1 from zergers ever will use - impresive

That's still not as bad as losing siege equipment you try to place.

THIS. THOUSANDS of AP wasted on siege. It hurts so bad. Go to place siege, wait 5 seconds, siege magically appears but is unusable. You can see the siege there but you do not get the command to use it.

Three separate times we almost had the emp dethroned but were foiled due to not placing siege. At this point, we aren't even attacked while sieging the inner. They just repair the outer and wait for the lag to kick in, then repair the inner even while we are hitting it. Then the keep unbursts and all hell breaks loose. Five separate times we tried sieging a keep but it became unburst while we were inside trying to fire siege. Every time an emp keep is sieged abilities and siege stop working. This is getting worse by the day and is a complete sh*t show at this point.

Add to the list of complaints how when they come for a scroll with 90+ people, it doesn't matter how many siege and caltrops are on it, someone just picks it up and runs.

Twice last night when defending scrolls vs the red zerg we all (16 in group) crashed. Came back in a few minutes later (long load screens during lag) to have missed the gate tick and see our scroll far, far away.

I believe this is due to the fact that there is so much lag the damage from the caltrops don't tick until after they have collected the scroll. It is sad that anytime there is the last emp keep or a scroll to be had it comes down to who plays the lag game better. I saw Mojican get dethroned last week while he was still standing on the back flag. Even his OP jabs, stellnado bats couldn't penetrate the lag. Although I was happy to see him dethroned, it was sad to see him lose the last keep that way.

PvP has been getting worse by the day.

For starters don't spam caltrops that skill is a big perpetrator of lag

Spamming caltrops is one thing, but putting a layer of caltrops on the scroll is a smart tactic to prevent someone from picking it up, when it works properly.

You can apply a smart tactic label to all the abilities that cause lag.With most people running immovable pots, caltrops do not have much utility other than proc'ing valkyn scoria and causing lag. Caltrops carries a lot more checks then most skills.

There're so many skills that are broken and/or cause excessive lag that they should just remove our skill bars and gives us all pool noodles.
