been doing ICS and IC quite allot recently and at some times its completely unbearable due to the players on opposite factions.
here are a few reasons pvp can be bad for imperial city
1:being ganked whilst fighting. Say your just farming some clanfears and dremora which can be tough on the stam and hp at times and a nightblade just teleport strikes you and starts killing you right when your low on hp and stealing your telvar sometimes if your lucky the mob will get the last hit but this is not always the case all classes can do this but I find the nightblade to be the most noteworthy of this kind of thing .I find this heavily interferes with the pve aspect of IC.
2:player farmers these guys are literally everywhere you go but in extreme cases they are even found in the locked axe campaign staying inside for weeks on end to gank players trying to farm there. Axe is closest thing to pve in IC you can get atm and even that is being polluted by abusers and trolls which really annoys me.
3:this is more in general to the way IC works but the lose of telvar on player kill is downright absurd why not make it so instead of losing that much telvar you gain a certain amount on player kill maybe 100 this probably wont work for some people but I say stuff it so sick of this happening to me and my friends and I say put an end to it or at least make a campaign where this is not the case or there is no pvp AT ALL.
I for one hate losing progress and hard earned work especially to a guy with 501 champ points I clearly don't stand a chance against and it irritates me more when they try and seek out the players worse off then them to farm just seems so scummy.
And to speak ahead of time for those people who say you don't like pvp don't play it. Why? I should be able to play a dlc without this kind of insufferable crap. I know for one Bethesda likes to appease to everyone so where is the love for the Pve community in this cause I certainly don't like pvp being shoved down my throat its different in cyrodil but this is just plain wrong ik that there is orsinium for the pve but why cant there be both pvp and pve in imperial city sewers or at least a less brutal telvar loss system.
