PVE Imperial city

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.

    IC was flagged as a PvP-DLC. Expect PvP in a PvP-DLC. Even if it has some PvE aspects. You bought it out of your choice, knowing what it would be like. Don't demand changes just because it doesn't suit you.

    How would you feel like if PvPers were asking to make Wrothgar a PvP zone?

    Play in pvp zone, tries to pve, gets killed by pvp, complains.

    When will people realise thats it's a pvp zone it won't change, if they change IC in pve then i want orsinium to be pvp.

    it was marketed as PvEvP not PvP content nor PvE
    IC is a troll/loser/*** infested dump that promotes douchbaggery on a grandscale. 3 factions have their own farming servers, those who gank are the ones who cause misery for those who are not PvPers, chasing questers ffarming AP harrassing ppl is not PvP.
    IC was a stupid idea to freshen up cyrodiil. apart of lore i undeestand that but this dlc is not pvp. still better than orsinium though.

    Seriously op....?

    ....... do you even L2P or just QQ about decent content? Sewers have been more than profitable and I don't purposely gank people. Mats are useful, exp, stones (if you are not ignorant) and AP at times.

    Bolded the part that made me laugh the most.

    It is a PvP area. If you don want to lose stones then group up. If you still cant succeed, then l2p, if that doesn't work then go back to PvE land where everything is scripted and happens over and over again in the same order.

    Wouldn't be a problem if the nightblades brought stones of their own. Fed up with frying these noobs to get a poxy 11 stones everytime...then to respawn thinking "he's got stones on him now...get him...geeeeetttttt hiiiiiiimmm" and then constantly come after time and time again. City districts are perfectly safe. Tons of space and a boss just around the corner. Sewers just stay near a ladder and put the laugh emote on if you can't defeat them. If your sustain is good just invisibility pots and as soon as they turn up vanish to a ladder. They'll stand in the open waiting for you and just rush him / her, take their stones, bank them and repeat. So easy to make

    lol... Is this thread serious? Surely he's just trolling??

    If you are a PvE carebear, don't go into a PvP enabled area. Go farm nirncrux in Craglorn or something.

    First of all: try NOT to care about Tel Var Stones because:

    1. You find lots of v16 stuff for deconning
    2. Keys for vaults
    3. TV are only needed for a small chance at a polymorph

    So there you have it, TV are rlly not needed. It's nice ofc when you can gather some, I mean I always go bank whenever I ganked killed someone and got his or made like 500 from farming, but in the end I barely need them. Just for v16 Runes

    And another thing: the DLC is set in a PvP-zone. You actually tell me you go out in there to farm with a PvE setup instead of equipping PvP skills and gear to prepare yourself against them? Or any anti-gank skills (Radiant Magelight, Caltrops, Flare,...)? That's rich, LOLZ!

    So yeah, when entering the IC, be prepared

    Seriously? Go farm in a pve area if you don't want pvp.

    Since I have all my vr16 stuff so I no longer care about stones and Cyrodiil is too laggy during peak hours to even weapon swap properly, I intend to a do lot of pvp in IC.

    Been having way more fun there.

    So if I see you OP, you're having it

    To me this seems to be a typical case to team up with friends when you want to do some PvE there, so that any aggressor will have to face several opponents. It will not really help against an ambush, but an ambusher will risk to have to fight and not just stealth kill and disappear again. If there is more risk involved for him, he will think twice about it.

    Sorry to say but I really dislike the OP. Read the first paragraph and immediately got disgusted. Another complainer who doesn't like the way things are so he/she has to have it their way. Please, if you don't like it, find somewhere else to grind or PvP.

    For the love of God, do ANYTHING except start whining on here. It's called a PvP Zone for a very good reason. If you can't handle the heat, don't play with fire.

    wow this thread is turning to crap its not like im proposing to remove pvp entirely FFs I merely ask for more of a chance to farm without these trolls harassing me if you took this with a sea of salt then your clearly just an under aged *** or some sort of over the top gamer who clearly needs to smell the roses once in awhile. get over it I didn't make this thread to have people come onto it and blasphemies it. merely to see what people think on the matter either way say what you want it does not matter really your just proving your maturity with these comments..

    Again, get used to playng IC and PvP. It's clear developers want to bring PvE players into PvP since IC is the best way to get mats, PvE dungeon gear is being opened to PvP players so they don't have to PvE. PvP players get to make a ton of gold selling runes and mats to PvE. Just join the L2P u Nub spazfest until you get what you need.

    I also don't see why PvP players get so upset, when someone asks for a PvE IC. Why do you even care? Can a PvP player answer that question? I sure don't care if they have a PvE instance of it.

    The IC is already mostly PvE, which makes PvE players crying for a PvE IC a travesty.

    [PS] PvP players I know go to Wrothgar to farm mats, not the IC. They are not rich from selling mats because playing PvP does not get you any mats, meaningful rewards or decent amount of gold. Maybe you are playing a game that's not ESO?

    Around 95% of what you will encounter in IC is AI controlled mobs, not players.

    1. Imperial City is PvP not PvE
    2. Then the PvP players you know are doing it wrong. In fact, I call BS on you stating that they farm for v16 runes and Ruby in Wroth. PvP does give you mats a lot of mats very quickly and the most meaningful rewards. You just don't know what you are doing or stating BS.
