What I think when I play PvP Nowadays.

(Not a flame post, just posting what goes through my head when I play PvP)

My Thoughts When I Play PvP:

Why do I not have CC immunity after being CC'd?

Why are my abilities not responding?

Why is dodge roll not responding?

Why did I get hit by Crystal Frag when in Mid Dodge roll animation?

Why does my ms spike so high?

Why can I not enter the IC Arena just because someone inside keeps placing Caltrops on the gate?

Why are my attacks not even registering against this person?

Why the F*** did I choose to be a Vam- DEAD

What is going on?

Why do I sometimes miss like 6 attacks in a row against someone who isn't dodge rolling?

Dark Cloak says I'm not meant to take Dmg from DOT's, why do I take damage when standing in Caltrops and get revealed?

F** it, I should just go around with a Zerg or something.


What generally goes through your heads when you try to PvP nowadays?

    My thought would be "do I really want to play something, where I will encounter a bunch of freaking squirrels, immature and smack-talking, who do not enjoy what I enjoy but are just up for the kill?" - and my answer is - "no, I do not want to do that".

    More or less the same. However I started playing in non-CP campaign so lag is somewhat gone and PvP is overall more balanced and fun.

    Yeah, I will try this, because I think it will keep the "1337 kiddies" away - I really dislike them.

    honestly I am having the most fun in pvp I have had in a while after this update. forward camps alone have allowed for some of the prolonged open area fights we used to get back in the day. I still run into the problem of I feel like everyone can kill me and I cannot kill anyone but that might just be my imagination.

    game got too disappointing.

    They are there in every other game too. Just ignore them.

    I think that is the nature of pvp - if you get killed less often than you get a kill done, you are already a good player. But you remember being killed for longer than you remember your kills - and this leads to this feeling you have.

    Here's what I think when I PvP...

    Why is it never nighttime in Cyrodiil?

    Why am I so hungry?

    Why didn't I eat breakfast?

    Why didn't I eat lunch?

    Who invented mayonnaise?

    Why is Dancing With the Stars still on television?

    Why does this guy keep coming to this part of the sewers when I've already ganked 2500 coins from him today?

    If I leave this Monstrous Tooth under my pillow, will the Tooth Fairy bring me crowns?

    Are cigarettes really more addictive then heroin, or is that just hyperbole for the sake of making a point?

    Why is this guy standing in the middle of this field by himself. I'll just gank him real qui---

    Why am I dead? Why did I fall for that?

    CCs seem to be even more broken than ever. When I get feared into a WB or a WB into a WB, my blood boils.

    Dodgerolling, for some reason, is VERY unresponsive this patch. Ran into a DK and WB went straight through it. Even his fully charged heavy attacks were hitting through. This has happened numerous times...

    DoTs also bring me out of cloak 80% of the time.

    Those are the things I relate to on the list. Something off the list?

    Lag is the biggest problem, macros aren't really worth using with the pretty simple (but amazing) combat system ESO has.

    When I'm not running with guild mates, I'm wondering...

    1. Why am I the only one with a siege weapon while everyone else is standing around?
    2. I like revealing gangkers with Mage Light. Don't run! Come back!
    3. Wow I killed someone 1v1 and I'm a Templar. Thank you CP!
    4. I've got 250K AP. Yay I can buy one motif.
    5. Why are AD and DC attacking EP even though we don't have any scrolls and only have 3 keeps and DC has Faregyl and Brindle? Ah yes Green Alliance in PS4 NA Azura.

    Haha, exactly - been the case for ages. Especially in situations where I know I can win easily, but all of a sudden that lagspike hits and *** - death by skillbar swap attempt.

    Yeah, had a situation like that today where I got double-wrecked in midair, my poor keyboard suffered for it sadly :S But luckily - all the keys fit back in. *phew* (yeah, I do get my nerdrage moments)
