    I'll come back to the alliance war when the devs give me a reason to. As things are now the rewards are too infrequent, and not good enough for me to bother, and AP is next to worthless now as well.

    But.... Tbags????

    I can still Tbag people in IC ;)

    ...I can't actually, they respawn too quick :'(

    So maybe there is some reason to go back to Cyrodiil after all.

    I've had my full legendary v16 glass arcane prismatic etc set finished for almost a week now with 2.5mil gold profit on top but it almost feels like there is no point fighting in cyrodiil when all of AD is still in imperial city. Was locked AD pop earlier and like my 6 man group was the only AD on the map... They need restricted IC access now, not in 2 months time. -.-

    that's not gonna fix much of anything. there is little motivation to PvP in Cyrodiil right now, that is the issue.

    1. Emp is hard to get... but they've taken the former emp buffs off. so it's really not worth the time and effort.

    2. with Buffs no longer applying outside of Cyrodiil people aren't caring as much about what is happening in cyrodiil unless they are planning to go to IC. I'm in that same boat, 1.6 i was always interested in what was happening in Cyrodiil. Now, not so much.

    restricted access Is not gonna make a difference, they need to add incentive to Cyrodiil again and i don't think that incentive is gated access.

    Our guild raid visited 3 different campaigns yesterday and all of them had a basically deserted Cyrodiil. Even more surprising was the fact that even though certain factions had a locked population, actually finding any members of said factions turned out to be quite the challenge.

    And yes, Cracked Wood City is a huge pile of wasted potential.
    I dont know what the ep queue for azuras star is but ep could need some support in cyrodiil here. And dont worry, finding enemies wont be a problem during prime time.

    why are you surprising of cyrodiil emptiness? pvp population that remain in this game are mainly farmers, so they will farm new content as much they can and after orsinium release they move there, In time cyro population recover a bit. there will be like max 2 active campaigns and deserted imp city or opposite(depends on where new patch get new reward)

    ZOS also need to add the PvP quests to the Imperial City. Killing 20 enemy players, having to go back to home base, map is 1 color of enemy alliance and you have to ride all the way back to the sewers.

    They should make that teleport stone also of use outside the city but have a cooldown like /stuck has.

    Completely agree. First, I was super disapointed when I went in the sewers through the EP side and discovered that I had been ported to the DC safe zone. And even better, if you want to go out of IC to defend a keep, your only option is to get back to home base in Cyro :/

    As for districts contributing to the global score, that wouldn't work because it's a DLC and people who didn't buy it would be at a disadvantage. There should be a local score just for IC though, that would encourage PvP in there.


    Thanks! Also, I'm not sure we have ever disagreed in these forums.



    I know right I was thinking the same haha

    Why are you in IC?

    Gotta get all that sweet ass gear bro to pvp!

    (later) Got all your gear yet?

    Yup, got everything I wanted, but I'm just focusing on getting the CP up a bit. You know, for the pvp's!

    (more later) You coming to pvp yet?

    Yeah... I will be tomorrow, I need to make some more gold man. I spent it all with upgrades, trophies, repairs etc

    Wheeler, get your ass up here and pvp, we are a keep away from crowning Firor

    Its so beautiful down here... and its.. so bright up there.. and so wide. So much space.. I don't know man. I like it down here.. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DAMN YOU

    As long as you can continue making 4K stones(50K gold), 50 crafting mats (25-30K gold), 2 CPs, and 20-30 trophies(5-150K gold) an hour while grinding (plus AP and bonus stones from open world PvP) why would you go up top and lose gold to gain AP doing PvDoor or PvZerg?



    VR16 Lich gear? :tongue:

    i want to pvp again but the loot system in IC sucks

    TV stones take too long to grind
    agi trophies dont drop nearly often enough
    RNG on stats is still stupid design

    it's been 2 weeks and I still don't have a single piece of gear.

    Well, we casually dethroned Magica de Hex in one of those campaigns, but nobody really showed up to try and stop us. And it was at prime time.

    Erm I've taken a week of vacation and yet I still have my gear and over 50k stones, without even trying to grind that much. 1 week to get max gear, is way to easy imo

    Get the grind spots to yourself and be good at PvP. Play for 3-4 hours a night for a week like this. Bingo bango you got your stuff.

    Or if you need stones and aren't EP, just bring yourself and a couple of buddies on over to Chillrend. FENGRUSH, Essa and I banked over 50K stones in a couple hours of soliciting EP for "Donations" last night. Some amazing small scale PvP and a lot of fun to boot. It beats fighting giant zergs running you down over land. In the sewers a man has a chance.

    Unless you're a magicka build and your stamina buddies aggro a sweeper and then abandon you to sweeper aggro plus EP zerg :'(
