You don't get it. A CP cap increase is NOW a gear increase to. They need new mats, weapon sets, etc. Increasing CP cap is the same as adding more Vet ranks. Want VR20, how about CP 200?

I disagree completely.

The current cp cap is 501.
The gear csp is 160.

There is nothing linking those two to imply raising one means also raising the other.

What i would like to see is creating an ability to SPEND cp for stuff.
Allow you to lose cp but gain other currencies such as AP or tel var or maybe a dpecial CP vandor ehere you can spend cp.

SHADOW2KK · May 2016

552 currrently, was looking forward to spending some more CP`s with DB but well that is not gonna happen.

And to be honest, the survey on the forums here, really ultimately means nothing, only a very small percent of the overall playerbase even comes here to the forums.

Lenikus · May 2016

I thought everyone had at least 600 by now ... ?

Eshelmen · May 2016

about 375 right now and hoping to have around 450 when DB comes out.

DjSolJAH · May 2016

These results... Yet there is no cap increase with DB. What a shame

The curve is illustrative of 1 of 2 things.

1) ZoS forgot to tell new players there is a forum
2) this game has very few new players coming in.

Or 3) Those of us that lurk around here all day are much more into the game than people who spend their time on facebook or reddit and as such we tend to have many more champion points than the average player.

ThePonzzz · May 2016

The forums represent such a small number of actual players, these polls don't really highlight where people really are. But if you want to see where the forum community is at, by all means.

I have 460 so close to cap just not their yet I'll get it by the time Thieves Guilds drop.

You will get another 40 cp since your vet levels will be converted to cp, so you could stop to grind if you want.
Also i think you mean Dark Brotherhood^^

Can you explain a bit how that works? I thought the extra points was just a small boost so people who had for example V16 but champion points below 160 could still equip Rank 160 gear.

I have a couple V1s as well as V3, V8, V10 and V16. If I'm at Champion Rank 460 or so when DB drops, are you sure I would get the extra 40 CP you mentioned?

ZOS has said that they are going to give out 2.5 cp for each vet rank on your highest level character when VR is removed (this is in addition to anything they will give you so that you can continue to wear the same gear). It appears to be a little bonus for all the people convinced that they are losing something when VR is removed (I've never heard of any other explanation at least).

Is this the case for players who already were at max veteran level before the champion point system was introduced?

iam117 · May 2016

i have more than the current cap, i wonder if they will bring the armor up to the current cap before raising cp cap or start bumping both up while keeping armor well under cap as it currently is

From what I've read the 2.5 cp per vet rank is entirely independent of when or how you earned those veteran ranks, or the cp we got when the champion system was introduced or anything else for that matter.

Tholian1 · May 2016

Only 4 votes for "none"? That must mean that most new players don't bother with the forums, or this game really is dead.

I still don't have 300 yet, but have been busy leveling a new character.

I'm sitting at like 147 right now or somewhere in that range. Really trying to get to 160+ before dark brotherhood comes out, but I level slower than a snail on weed.

If you have a v16 you automatically get 40cp at launch

Anyone know if they will reward the bonus 40 CP even if you're already at or above cap? Like I recently said, I am presently at 734 CP...

They should, but do you really care? You could quit playing for over a year and still be over the cap.

phaneub17_ESO · May 2016

So I'm guessing there's about 600 posters, that's about all the votes we got in. If you're a forum goer and haven't voted, please do so. We can figure how many people actually do come here, its an important measuring tool not just where you're at on the list.

I don't think that works they way you want tho. Increasing the cap doesn't make us stronger when we hit it.
It's just more points with greater diminished returns so that really doesn't fix anything unless it's raised 300-400 points.

It will be a couple of more % of dmg, since every point is increasing your resource stats as well. I for example with 100 more cp, would have maybe 10% increase dmg, and all my dmg scales with buffs like warhorn and combat prayer. 3dd's with 10-15% more dmg, is alot in a 4 man dungeon.

Yes. But you won't be able to use them

ADarklore · May 2016

I'm very close to 400... I don't pay too much attention anymore since I'm working on alts that don't earn CP yet anyway.

GeertKarel · May 2016

640 ish, and with the 40 free point we'll get I might be at 700+ when dark brotherhood releases... And even I don't grind nonstop or whatever I just play the game >.<

Master_Kas · May 2016

700ish. But I've grinded multiple chars both stamina and magicka, and helped friends to grind aswell. Reason I have those c-points :P

Pangnirtung · May 2016

Apparently the cap cannot be raised until 99% of the player base is over 500 CP.

phairdon · May 2016

Approx 420.

60% of voters are 400+ wow. It would be good to know what percentage of the actual playerbase are 400+. Doubt it's anywhere near the same percentage. Just goes to show that forums don't represent most players and are generally the more dedicated types.

Explains a lot why the forums often seem to be very opposed to some of the changes the devs make. They make changes based on metrics we will never see.

Well forums users are probably not even 1% of the playerbase, so....

I know it's always like that in MMO's. I think it's maybe even worse here, as console players seem to be very rare here, but are quit a sizeable portion on the playerbase.

Console and PC players should never have been in the same CP "bracket" to begin with.

yeah, I am at 521 and I am on ps4. PC players had the game for a year and a half before console players could even log in for the first time, so most of them have a good bit more than me. I get frustrated that I get CP I can not use....I am sure some PC players are ready to explode from stacked up useless CPs. PC at least should have had an increase by now. I am still kind of frustrated that there is no CP cap increase with DB but I feel like it is a slap in the face to any PC players.
How do they plan to keep people around if there is no progression?

G0DS_DEMON · May 2016

I just hit the 400 champion point marker...

Champion points did not exist on PC for most of that extra time.

vamp_emily · May 2016

Zero, and still having fun.

ElliottXO · May 2016

About 190 on my highest VR8.

Started in beta. Hit VR1 and quit the game. Now I got to VR8 by doing daily random dungeons, which I find fun as a tank.

4) Since ESO is a B2P now, all accounts are 'active'. So all the people that have stopped logging in may still be part of their data collection programs. How many people stopped playing after a few months that have no or very few CP's, but are still lowering the bell curve.

Here's Rich from last year explaining how they ran the calculations to set the CP cap:

ZOS_RichLambert wrote: »

The averages I posted were calculated from active accounts that have at least 1 VR character. (i.e. - can start earning CP) An account is only considered active if it has been logged into in the past 30 days and played the game for a period of time.

One would assume they would use a similar methodology to define "active" players when looking at raising the cap. It's not perfect since it might include people who just pop in to check things out once in a while, but I can't imagine they'd just hoover up every account ever created when running the numbers.
