I love dueling... but this is why everyone hates duelers.

No serious dueling guild would duel in a place like that, nor would a respectable dueler *** and moan like in the screenshots. Don't associate organized and serious dueling with that mess.

Kena you know me better than that. I'm not talking about duelers who do this daily and do this in more appropriate locations, I'm talking about the randoms like my example above.

Oh I didn't even look at who wrote the post. You right bae.

On PC EU you get duels outside keeps and outposts all the time lol. The only people who interrupt are the new pvpers (who soon learn to not interrupt) and leaders of certain guilds (who funnily enough can't pvp without at least 23 people backing them. Funny when they get wiped by 5-6 man groups after interrupting but yeah). It's normal. Looks like PC NA is more zerg infested and full of more idiots I guess. I saw a few duels at that very location only last week.

It is not the common for duels to happen right outside of keeps or on well traveled paths on the most populated campaign there is. There is constantly traffic going through these areas and most people will kill the opposing faction regardless of duels.

Happens every single day on PC EU Trueflame, the most populated campaign.

Not our official daily duels which happen 3-4x a day, we move to lower pop campaigns and out of the way for them, but you'll find we're regularly dueling outside emp keeps/outposts when we're deep in enemy territory and there's enough members of each faction from our guild to duel. And if any small groups or zergs try to interrupt? We just wipe them and carry on. We don't cry in zone chat/whispers though, that's just silly, not sure what they were expecting.

I am getting to the point to where I just DGAF about "duels" in Cyrodiil. People seem to think duels are some respectable sport, uhh, you're dueling inside our gates. GTFOutta here.

Being rude in whispers comes natural for some people it seems. Messages like that usually give me a good laugh, but I can imagine some people don't really care for that.

Still not convinced cross faction chat in Cyrodiil was a good idea. People that like to communicate with buddies cross faction, can use voice comms / external programs or join the same guild and talk in guild chat.

I don't mind the cross chat. What annoy me is being able to whisper someone while in offline mode or if you have someone ignored.

I have seen some impressively stupid choices of places to duel before, but that has to take the cake. Should be zerged down for sheer stupidity alone.

I've seen worse, and have seen the yelling in /say and it's usually by the guy with two unpronounceable names who's a total idiot. Only reason I mention it is because it's always a really stupid location and the idiot is always all caps yelling about it.

It's usually being done by the "WERE DUELERS OMG" types that can't duel anyone but other idiots.

The yelling is always the most entertaining part. The grammer, the nonsense, the stupidity... just entertaining.

Okay, so... Trueflame the most populated server. Surely you can find a great place to duel friends, rivals, and randoms the like? I mean we have this huge open map where you can go anywhere. This is especially true if you're using FC's right??

Like this example here:

This is obviously the most logical place to duel! Who cares if a group of players heading between the keeps kills your, friend, rival, rand om... maybe lover? All you'll have to do is respond as such...

If only I could name and shame.

But seriously. This is why people get so fed up with duelers. You pick awful choices to duel and then get mad and start word bashing the players who are actually there to pvp and not duel. Don't get mad because people see a different faction and go in to kill... especially during well traveled paths. I'm all for dueling and what not, but pick smart locations.

Next time, put them to ignore and zerg them again and again also T-bag their cropse.

So, that they will know not to duel areas that are hotspot for combat.

Duelers should duel in some other campaign, where there is no siege/zerg battles taking place or the population is extremely low in all factions.

I've always wanted to know, how much room do you need to duel? Is there no strip of land near the water surrounding Imp City that could be used as dueling grounds? No one would really go there unless they were derping around or were on a quest.

If you check earlier in the thread, someone actually posted a really good map with some good dueling locations.

I love going into sewers personally. You can find a lot of small scale pvp there.

Came across some guys dueling in Cheydinhall of all places like why would you be their dueling when you know players are going to come here to quest.

Obviously my group wiped them and they were pushed back to their gate so they never came back.

Another thing with Duelers why is when I attack you not knowing you are dueling then back off holding block as a form of apology, why do you feel the need to attack me as I'm walking away from you?

this has happened to me MANY times on any of the campaigns ..... ill be traveling toward a keep that is being attacked on a well used path and ill come across one of my faction members fighting another .... no others around and no signs of it just being a duel ... so id rush in and help kill the other faction member only to get hate whispered about it .....
when ever i duel someone either just for a duel or to test out a new build idea on a friend ( who is in another faction ) i find a place out of the way so neither them nor i will have to worry about being attacked from others

Sadly, I see this occurring a lot. I just found the comment from this user particularly funny.
