50 points is equivalent to a few VR levels.

This was a pretty reasonable pace previously about once per year when we went from V10 to V12, V12 to V14 and then V14 to V16. Now if I'm not mistaken it will be a quarterly bump instead of yearly.

I see some are asking for an increase of 250 points at once all the way to 750, but this seems much too high. We would end up with perhaps a bit too many players grinding a lot to catch up.

A major appeal of the new account wide champion system is there is not much need to grind unless you are far behind. People who are close to 500 at the new update will be able to get to 550 without really grinding, earning a couple CP per day.

I have CP's somewhere in the low 600's right now. I would love to see the cap raised by more than 51. 17 more CP per tree is crap and means nothing. It has been a long time and I want to be able to use what I worked hard for. Will it make me stronger? Sure it will, but I rate most of my strength on my playing skill. You can have 1000 CP, but if you suck as a player, then you will still suck and the extra CPs might help you live just a little longer in PVE or PVP.

I enjoy playing with new people and helping them do dungeons. I am extremely bored with the game and this gives me something "rewarding" to do. I love being able to walk people through things that they could not do on their own. Bring some noobs through an SO run and let them see what it is like while giving them a taste of some shiny new gear. It brings something different to the game for me. I have completed every quest in this game and have over 16000 achievement points. Going back and helping the noobs with old content is kinda the only thing I have to enjoy in this game anymore. If anything, raising the cap would help stronger players play with noobs who have very low CP. It could help make up for the lack of skill they have while being able to work a little harder with my own skill to help everyone get through the content.

As for PVP, I have played the non-CP campaign and it is fun, but I would rather play with the points I've earned. I am just as strong in the non PVP when it comes to fighting other players. I am far from being the best, but I'm good enough to hold my own and I still rage when people kick my butt lol. I would love to be able to play with a higher cap now. It would bring something fresh for some of us. 750 would be nice, even though I am at least 100 below it. I love the challenge and I love improving my own skills. I would love a nice sized cap increase.

It would be really cool if ZOS added another PVP campaign for those who were concerned. Raise the cap to 750 but add a 300 or 375 CP capped campaign. That way players who fear the increase could play somewhere they feel a little safer.

Just because I want more CP and you don't doesn't make any of us wrong. It is our opinions and we should be respectful of each other. I expect someone out there to troll part of my post because that is what these message boards are filled with anymore. If you disagree with someone, don't make it personal. Share your opinion and leave it like that.

Besides, we all know that ZOS doesn't care about what we have to say anyway unless it is something that bashes them. They will move the CP cap up by 51 and we will just have to deal with it.

I miss being excited when I earned a champion point.

Cap PvP at the current 501, give pve no limit.

I could also go with this solution, but implementation would be a little tricky. How do you decide which of the 501 points to count, or do you have to set your 501 every time before going into PvP?

I would say 600. I still see people below 501 and lots of people that havent passed the 501 mark.

I see two directions, either raise it by smaller amounts more often, or by bigger amounts less often. So really it depends on how long until they raise the cap again after this first time, if they wait as long to raise it again as they've waited already then they should up it to 900 or something, but if they'll raise it every few months from this point on then going up to 600 and then 699/702 and so on every few months seems about right to me.

I'll vote 750 just because it's in the middle ground, but it's a more complicated question with a more complicated answer than the poll permits for given no mention of when the next raise after this will be, or how much that raise will be by.

And also I don't want to see the gear increase too often, it's a given in this type of game that you will periodically need to obtain and/or create new gear for your maxed out characters as the game progresses, but it shouldn't be too often, and every few months is too often. I'd rather like to see it only increase every six months at the most frequent, if not less frequently than that, but then I don't enjoy grinding for new things, I like most playing the game after I've obtained them, and having to obtain new things too often reduces the time I have to actually use the things I've acquired and enjoy the game in the process.

I'd love for it to increase no more than once a year at most, but other people will likely disagree, so six months seems like a reasonable compromise. Having the gear increase too often also puts off people who have less time to play most especially, and would be harmful I think to the overall health of the game.

So, they're updating old sets to 160 but raising the cap...

Will existing sets be raised or left to one side like previously?

Makes it limitless! For p0werz!

There will be no gear cap raise. Only the max amount of CP you can spend changes

Let the grind fest begin !

3600

I would like to see the cap at 585 for 120/75 benefits. more is OP in my opinion.

What I would like is a system where I can assign all points in sets, eg. when I'm at 720 I could save 2 sets with 360 each for separate healer and dd build or max out one build at 585 and use the remaining 135 points for a secondary build.

Since no-one reacts to my suggestion I will do so myself

There is already an enormous performance gap between low cp and high cp players and raising the cap too much make the stronger players even more OP imho.

Choosing active skills, distributing skill points in certain passives and being forced to choose the most appropriate CP distribution for your build is what makes working on your build and playing it interesting.

stored CP sets, combined with the flexibility of armor and skill sets we already have gives a meaningful way to spend all of your hard earned CP. e.g for my tank I can choose between a full mitigation/support build or change to a more aggressive build for easier content or certain bosses. Or a dd/healer character can change builds based on the role for that moment.

The maximum of CP that can be used is 3600 and when enough people reach this limit the developers are forced to come up with new trees or overhaul the system completely. It also is against the core design of this game where you have to make choices when developing your character.

Raise it by 10... every month. From now on.

Except you'd need it to be 9 or 12. And at 12 a month, it would take over 20 years to reach the 3600 cap.

12 a week would be better. That would still take 5 years to max out.
