    Don't understand some reasoning in this thread. Who cares how you got your CP? If you have more than most players, it's an imbalance. A seasonal cap is no solution, but better than what we have now and it might make the game a bit more enjoyable while it is dieing anyway.

    Agree here.

    Next, CPs were acknowledged as a huge imbalance problem by basically everyone. I'm not sure anybody even likes the CP system. Not sure why people will be upset. If you hit 500 CPs early, congrats you'll be on a level field with everyone. That's what we want in pvp. Balanced fights.

    And as a continuation of that "level" playing field thought, pve leaderboards will have more competition since people will be on the same spot CP wise.

    500 is a fine number. I would rather have the cap on the low end than the high end.

    LOL @ the tears for an even (more or less) playing field.

    Right now for this patch it should be 300 but think about when this cap will be introduced.
    For new content and DLC, 500 cap is perfect. A majority of players are below 300, if I'm not mistaken.

    People complaining that the cap is too low are people who care more about themselves than the overall health of a sickly game.

    People with low CP complaining about ppl with high CP are caring more about themselves than about a healthy game with longterm progression goals for every player.

    what drew me to this game was the fact that it wasn't like any other generic MMO i've played and hated. with this cap, ESO is another step closer to becoming another generic MMO i've played and hated. You may call that selfish, but i don't really care. if they're gonna take things that originally drew me to the game away of course i'm gonna say "screw that" what else would you expect?.

    when i reached veteran rank 14 back few months ago and found about the real advantage of high CPs holder vs new player i cancelled my sub immediately when i realized its impossible for me to catch up, now however, i am considering renewing it again(well i made a 6 months sub so talking about next year)
    also, plenty of my friends no longer plays the game when they understood the champion system, i am talking about friends i made while struggling to kill a world boss on level 16, friends who started to play when TESO became buy to play

    Everything you just listed is PVE. I PVP for 3-4 hours a day 6 days a week and I'm barely hitting 350. 3-4 CP is a problem for the active players that don't want to lower themselves to grinding NPC's & doing the same dungeons/trials for over a year.

    Then I'm sorry, but you don't PvP efficiently. I didn't grind anything, I have not been playing 3-4 hours a day for a while (more like 6-8 hours a week atm), and I have 370 CP just from PvP. That's only from small scale.

    I guess coming from daoc i´ve been socialized with a system where there was no balance bc you had infinite character progression with the RA system. Still the best pvp to date in my opinion.
    I don´t want an even playingfield. I want a fair chance and character progression with goals to work towards in pvp.

    I understand this perspective. The players that post here on these forums are top couple of percent. Yes, we will lose some of our effort. Just like when I lose my gold gear on level cap increases.

    The big caveat is the following:

    At least on NA, pvp needs fresh blood. There are players that have been hanging around which will have these CPs. Lots of players have quit that should be encouraged to return. New players need to not be handicapped. A catch up mechanism and seasonal cap addresses both of those.

    Well what speaks against adjusting the curve for cp then and implementing a hardcap that makes it actually impossible to optain every perk

    Just adjust the CP curve so ppl get like 350cp by the time they´re finished leveling to v16 and hardcap cp at 1500 with the last cp taking something like 30million XP.

    I wouldn´t mind loosing CP to an adjusted XP curve that punishes grinding.

    I mind a seasonal cap that takes away from the progression i´ve made and takes away any progression by normally playing for my character until that cap is raised.

    +1 to everything Derra Said in this thread.

    its a good thing for the game's overall health that players over 500 CPs quit, yes i hope you all quit. this will revive the game and pvp and balance everything with no exception, however, the people crying here about quitting are actually logged to the game -stuck by loading screens and grinding for more CPs

    I'm gonna go ahead and call you out for blatantly lying. There's no way in hell you're at that without grinding or farming. My 350 includes levelling an alt (~50 CP) and I find it very hard to believe you make more AP/hr than me during raid nights (which is 6 days a week)

    Just callin' it as I see it. 6-8 hours a week isn't gonna get you 370 CP by only PVPing, small scale at that.

    There is hardly no reason why it wouldn´t be capped. Only ones who might get salty are the ones who grinded like crazy to get over 1000+ CPs. If PvP gets interesting (balanced, no lag) we might see some of the gone-for-now players make come back.

    So here i am with ~700cp (few due to ic grind i could live with loosing those)

    But i was above the cap before IC hit. My guildmates were too. We did this by pvping in a grp of 3 or 4 people and being successful doing so. What the cap does is taking away CP i´ve earned by beating other players and it takes away any progression for me for MONTHS to come.

    What´s the point there. They´re not punishing grinders the cap is so low they´re actually punishing everyone who dared to earn more than 2cp (with one being enlightened anyway) a day. That´s 500000xp per day being penalized. They punish players for having played the game daily on a reasonably timed manner. 500k XP were about two hours of pvping (and 20minutes of grinding mobs).

    Sorry i´m extremely salty about this cap and i don´t consider myself a grinder at all. I´ve played the game and i´m being punished for ZOS releasing of a broken system they´re now trying to bandaid fix.

    False. You did not get to 700 by pvping. *** flag

    We were avaraging ~300k to 450k XP/h with our small grp for all of 1.6 in pvp. It took about 3 hours of pvp per day to get more than 3CP every day.

    No need to call people liars just because you´re obviously on a level of incapability where the possibility of someone outperforming you exceeds your imagination.

    It is completely possible to make that much xp in pvp, but as Derra said this is in a good small group. With emperor on an active campaign it was completely possible to make 5-10 cp a day in a competitive campaign.

    Yeah. i have low CP and am not a grinder and hate this cap. so, why don't you get out of here with your false preconceptions hmm. and a good deal of players with over 500 CP are not actually grinders either, but people who have been playing for a long time and subscribe, their departure would not be good for the health of the game, so yet another false preconception on your part. the game being stuck with players like yourself is what's bad for the over all health of the game.

    Didnt you level a few alts with LDK ?

    Leveling alts equates to less than 10% of my champion point pool. Leveling alts is not nearly the same as grinding champion points, in the sense that all players leveling from vr1 to vr16 will have earned exactly the same amount of champion points in that time frame.

    Don't forget that you earn Zero CP from L3 to V1

    You do realize that many of the top PvP guilds are inactive after 1.6 CP system was introduced. I can only hope that the damage inflicted to them will be partly repaired. I hate to see guildies leave the game because of the forced CP rally.

    You do realize that the majority of the players in the top PvP guilds would all be sitting at 500+ CPs right now had they continued playing? This change does absolutely nothing to bring them back. They left for (reasons)....primarily the horrible lag, not because of CPs.

    500 is a lot. It should be 360. I play almost everyday and I have around 250. The average is 1 CP per day. I started with 70 and for 6 months I got around 180. As you can see 1 per day. Now I have to play half a year just to reach the cap. Probably only 1% from the population are over the cap.

    You've earned less than 1 CP a day since the launch of 1.6. It has been 216 days since March 3rd 2015. If you started with 70 you should be at 286 CPs right now. This means you only earn less than 100K experience a day. Most active players earn 100K exp in about a half hour of PvPing or doing PvE content (or 10 minutes of grinding).

    Everything you just listed is PVE. I PVP for 3-4 hours a day 6 days a week and I'm barely hitting 350. 3-4 CP is a problem for the active players that don't want to lower themselves to grinding NPC's & doing the same dungeons/trials for over a year.

    Then I'm sorry, but you don't PvP efficiently. I didn't grind anything, I have not been playing 3-4 hours a day for a while (more like 6-8 hours a week atm), and I have 370 CP just from PvP. That's only from small scale.

    I'm gonna go ahead and call you out for blatantly lying. There's no way in hell you're at that without grinding or farming. My 350 includes levelling an alt (~50 CP) and I find it very hard to believe you make more AP/hr than me during raid nights (which is 6 days a week)

    Just callin' it as I see it. 6-8 hours a week isn't gonna get you 370 CP by only PVPing, small scale at that.

    OMG.. 1.6 was released when? On 3th March if I am correct.. so till now its around 217 CP just from enlightment.. And we started with 70 CP, so in total its 287 CP just for using an enlightment daily which takes 30 minutes of gameplay, right? So if som1 played every day just for 30 mintues, starting from 1.6 release he/she should have min. 290 CP..

    @Etaniel has 370 CP, so 80 CP more than uber casual should have.. playing in so called "big groups" aka raids won't provide u with good amount of exp, but small scale which perfom abovementioned will do.. U can esly get with 2 - 4 ppls tons of kills and at the same time get insane amount of exp + killing qsts/scout qsts which provide also nice amount of exp.. Which in most cases is much faster than grinding, cause u can get esly 2k exp or more from one kill, especially if u play duo..

    And u dont need to play 5 hrs daily to get 370 CP amount, seriously.. Its only 80 CPs more than uber casual should have till now.. Just sishhh... Imo 2 hrs or so are enough if u are lucky to hit 370 CP till now if u played daily.. Good kill = nice exp, nice AP and those days nice telvars. Its all about efficiency, u dont need to grind like a moron to get tonse of CPs, especially not 370 CP! LOL

    You people are as bad as the people who accuse people who kill them in PvP of exploiting or using Macros.

    286 CPs just from Enlightened. That is 100K Exp a day.

    If you have 370 *Today* That means you averaged 255,555 Experience a day since the launch of the CP system.

    If you can't understand that then I hope you're playing this game on Xbox because a PC is too technical for you to be using.

    Pretty sure this cap was made for console players. This is too low. I didnt think itd be anything below 600, and I thought that was low. I was hoping itd be 800-1000, and Im at about 570 right now. Ive not grinded, that is just from PvP, and includes roughly 3-4weeks out of game since the CP system was released.

    Keep in mind, this cap is coming in a month, and will last much longer than that. That is 500 cap for *awhile*.

    This system needs to make sense. I was again hoping for 800-1000 which is something we can PURSUE in the future until the next season when its raised. The people who havent even been grinding but have played very active are literally being capped under what they have now and that will last for a long time. They have nothing to pursue or look forward to in this department going forward.

    My main concern with CP system is having a more sensible catchup system. How are we supposed to get new players in the game with the CP system if we dont have a steep scaling catchup? 1-100CP (5x) 100-250 (3.5x) 250-400 (2x) 400-600 (1.5x) something like this, just pulled it out of my ass while posting. But it already looks better than what we have here.

    Ofc, that wasnt always the case, but still.
    You had a nice battle there and got some XP but you cannot do it constantly in 3h. The average XP that you get from a kill is 1k. It means that you have to kill 400 player per hour if you want to reach these numbers. That means you have to kill lets say 6 player every minute. Not possible.

    So with xp pot you would have exceeded 500k. 450 was even an understatement. :blush:
