FACT: More people have beaten VWGT and VIP than achieved Emperor
Therefore, what's required to achieve Emperor needs to be nerfed. Instead of conquering the ring of keeps, all a person should have to do is take over a resource. After all, it's not fair that an individual must work so hard for something. It should be acquired with minimal effort.
They better not nerf ways of getting emp. It depends on the campaign, who you're competing against and of course a good guild to back you up. I got mine 4-5 hours after campaign reset.
I've come close a total of 3 times. I'm not an AP farmer so me coming close this often is a surprise even to me. And each time I have, someone whose sole purpose is to AP farm to high heavens has screwed me out of it. The last time I was in first place was when Trueflame was added to the list and I was on the road to becoming the first Empress of Trueflame. Then a certain person whose name is related to that which you must "STACK ON" *cough* *cough* came in and in an instant demolished the leaderboard and snatched it from me. Granted, I still love the S.O.B, but that definitely was a kick in the face after having already come so close twice before and being screwed in exactly the same way. Long before these AP Farming methods were ever shared and were still some big conspiracy secret organisation type thing lol.
Nope. Was once very close. I was second in DC in Blackwater and we were close to getting emp. I had to go to work and when I got back he was miles ahead and emp already.
The closest I ever got was 7th in line on Blackwater Blade with my magic based Templar but I had to be in PVP almost every waking hour to get that close.

Closest I ever got was 8, but was close enough in running that I could have pushed it. I was in a guild that wanted as many emperors as possible, so they would have helped get it. Just wasn't a huge desire of mine. I was actually shocked to see myself 8th, and kind of proud to get that high up considering I was not trying.

No, but I have gotten pretty close a few times on my nightblade. Thinking it will happen if I find a good group to run with as I have been pushing solo mostly.
Never really tired pushing.I tired once and was in second place behind a friend of mine but before the reset a group of DC took over the map and crown their own emp.later on that night a DC guild came in and farmed AP and knocked me and my buddy to 8 place.
Yes in the 2nd or 3rd week of release on ps4 (wasnt a pc player before though) knew it would be so difficult later on so went all out for it at the start.
Me and 2 other friends all went for it. 2 of us managed to do it thankfully i guess
the regalia was the best thing about it imo and at the time the 5% decrease in ultimate costs (still dont think they should have taken that off tbh)
Almost on non vet, I was 2nd and the guy that was first left so I became first but I had already hit VR1, so I couldn't leave so I stayed in then my game decided to crash

I don't pvp much at all, but there was that one time when I decided to try out the majestic Axe of Belharza campaign on my Redguard and ended up tenth in line for Emperor after a single daring scouting mission deep into Dominion territory, where I saw absolutely nobody along the way .
I moved to a more populated campaign after laughing way too hard when I saw my position!

I had the worse time getting my emperor. DC was dominating and we had an emperor already but no one was able to usurp her even though everyone agreed she was the worse emperor in ages. I had over 500k AP lead and still didn't get emperor till they usurp'd her and I got it (All while being a solo player with no groups might I add).
When I was Emperor as a Stam DK I would insta kill everyone with my leaps; zergs tried to flee but all they heard was my dragon like self flying then BOOM! Everyone dead.

I got first on the leaderboards in Blackwater Blade once a couple of months ago. Was never crowned though since one of the main guilds there wanted one of their friends to get emp. At the time though, I didn't mind it. I wouldn't have been able to take full advantage of emperor due to lag.
This commemoration is for the class that has constantly been plundered and dismantled by designers for no obvious reason while other classes continue to have coherent skill lines and feel both powerful and cool.
I've been #1 once... about 2 minutes after a campaign reset and I got a random tick. That didn't last long. I'm happy when I get a gold bag for the amount of pvp I do.
unfortunately the dev team didnt take into account of their players having a life, or it seems that way. emp is a flawed system and not reachable by many. an achievement many cant afford to get.
Im not that much of a PvP'er to put in the effort of gaining Emp, nor do I play enough in general to obtain it. If it was easier for the mortal man with a fulltime job and what not, I might go for it.
Only Emp and Fishing PSN Trophy are left. Dont know which are worst. Lol
