From some of you on Trueflame that play nightly is this how it is normally or did I just do some pvp on a bad weekend. There's a ton of players out there, I know a lot of them are in groups, but no one's inviting.

For two days this weekend I spammed LFG and I got one small group that broke apart in 30 minutes.

You add herding a group of cats from point A to B and I've instantly got more stress than work. I want to know..why is it an act of GOD to get a group in PVP?

I'm here to crush our enemies or try (NBs I'm looking at you!).

Run with a guild, you'll pick up knowledge exponentially faster than solo or in lfg groups. Pay attention to your raid lead and how/when he/she makes calls, then try leading yourself. If you enjoy it and are moderately successful, feel free to continue with the guild, run lfg, or start your own guild.

Without a lead, being in a group is utterly pointless for lfgs. Few want to raid lead, few are good at it, and most losses are on you. This is compounded when you have randoms that don't listen, run subpar group builds, are inexperienced, and unbalanced group comps. That's why you don't see lfg groups.

Start with pick up groups, if they require TS... Just get TS. You don't have to talk, plenty in my guild type only.

Pick up groups are basically your junior high school dances, it's where you wind up meeting people, have a little more freedom to figure out new skills, understand the broadest strokes of group basics.

From there inevitably, someone gets tired of getting hit in the face over their jello pudding, and goes into the "high school" phase, where they make their own guild... Basically of friends they have made in PU group, that they trust are decent enough players. Those friends invite their friends (because at this point they are all in 5 guilds) and then you get your HS click of mid level players that still lean on numbers a little more than skill which is where most of the map is won/lost.

From there we enter the college phase where people start experimenting, small group, making their own guild, dueling, basically any weird pvp scenario... You'll see someone with purple hair doing it. Some still cling to HS working at their faction Applebee's. This seems to be where players start to "come into their own," claiming they understand the world because they have been to their gates and behind the enemies gates and completely understand where and what pvp should be.

By the college level of PVP, players more or less understand in what direction they want to go.... And then real life pvp happens. They have either become their own boss and have made a thriving/flailing pvp guild struggling to make money in a debt driven pvp economy trying to put their khajiits through private school so they have a better life, or they have made it into a cushy big firm, with a luxurious spa and amenities like recognition as map winners and ap bonuses, or you have the professional athlete guild who still runs large enough to get *** done, but small enough to be marveled and declared a model for redguards across the land to look up to.

Then you have your super small group/1vx people.... Who are basically the gopro wearing extreme sports athletes, who only drink redbull... And have been wearing DC sneakers, backwards Pact hats, or Eagle Earrings, since they earned their sponsorship when they defeated more than 3 people, by themselves, and have been searching for that heart pounding fun in game ever since.

Then you reach a level of pvp maturity. Where you can take part in any pvp community, people ask about your build at the 4th of July BBQ while you wear those salmon colored shorts and yellow cuffed button down shirt. Your hair is a little receded from that damn blood spawn helm you wore for years until you decided it was time to hide it in the settings menu.

Long story short, pretty much everyone has to some degree followed this path, learn to be ok with failure, make sure you learn from it, and at the end of the day, never come to the forums and complain that no one is adding you to their group when you have an invite button yourself.

Have fun in Cyrodiil.

Telel has never let their incompetence keep them from leading groups. In fact they have never let their incompetence stop them from doing anything that they demand others do for them.

No, the only things that stop them from doing that is the selfishness of the people who claim they wish to be led, but then refuse to listen. Such people make an already burdensome task most unappealing.

Also this one is already accused of having fleas, and can do without more obvious parasites latching onto them.

But as khajiit requires team speak for any random groups they may lead this results in them very rarely needing to deal with such selfish children. Any that happen to make it past that filter are dealt with swift by means of battle field execution. AKA, right click, kick from group, and then put on ignore.
