Would farming a million ap in less then 24 hours be considered an exploit

    Lol are you serious? You must be talkin about aoe caps. Hes my buddy and we racked up insane ap with 6-10 of us in a group. The blue pug zerg is just awful. I put up 650k ap in maybe 8 hours playing with him last night. Gaining ap is so easy when youre a capable player and playing in a strong group. And no were not even farming. We run from keep to keep killing 40 man zergs in the breach.

    That is freaking awful . Whenever i play solo i usually gain that much from just 4 hours of playing. I just dont think you played in a strong group before.

    Love how people make *** like this up lol 20 days into a campaign on pc and highest is almost 8mil. And these dues who have 5mil plus play all day.

    Xbox NA's main 30 day campaign is usually 14m+ for 1st place. Pick your game boys

    That only equal 500k in day..

    They go hard for a few days then disappear

    Of course not. But when you have vampire magic templars and proxy bombing nightblades it can turn the tide real quick.

    Anyway back to the topic, yes its definitely possible to gain a million plus ap a day. Several of my guild mates have done it but it requires no lifing it for like 18 hours of playing. Ap gain is much easier on a magic build. All the grand overlords on xbox are pretty much magic builds.

    It's not up in the air. I used to be in a guild with a guy (no longer plays) who played solo and made around a million AP in less than 24 hours. He regularly topped the leaderboard by a large margin.

    Made 600k in a 8 hour run defending patricks emp on azuras pc na about 2 weeks ago.

    That would be 1.8 mil in 24 hours if id been on the whole day and it had stayed that busy.

    All told I went from rank 16 to rank 21 in that week, so about 2 1/2 million AP for a weeks effort, playing 6-10 hours a night (especially the weekend)

    Possible, sure it is, but time investment is investment.

    What zerg r u talking about, please, enlightened me. For almost 14 hours team purple fought each other of one castle. How do fight over a castle for 14 hours? Why would u? Then when yellow decided to go after one of their scrolls, team purple decide to push yellow back to they home castle. Though once yellow counter they push, they went to that once castle.

    Being FED AP is legit against the ToS - i saw someone feeding a guy AP at Dragonclaw on Thornblade just to keep me from getting emp (you know who you are ) and that was straight up [SNIP]
    Other than that, people farm AP all day errday. there are no restrictions on AP gain rate that i know of so anything goes. if ZOS has a problem with it, it would be easy to implement an AP gain cap.

    When I see a couple hundred thousand piling up in the first few hours of a campaign with little to no activity on the map, it's fishy. You can get a crazy amount of AP legitimately playing the game, or you can get even more if you want to devote time to all the sketchy ways of working the system.

    On Xbox we got ninja nerf on AP, especially when in groups. Dont need a cap, just increase on capping stuff and lower AP on killing players by 20%.

    Or utilize some of the statistics ZOS says they have on the game to determine rankings rather than just AP. The results probably wouldn't change much in something like Haderus NA X1, but everyone would feel better about it.

    Getting emp should determine on how u help your faction, not by farming AP. What does ap prove, nothing. Emps should reset every campaign, u should have timer on how long u can have emp. 24 hours max, dont log in for 12 hours you forfeit your emp to second person on the list. Once u earned emp once, climbing the list should be twice hard. I've seen too many repeated emps on Xbox. Its not fair to people that want the title and Xbox achievement.

    I play a few hours a night, and a bit more on weekends. I don't see Emp in my future, but I wouldn't say it's not "fair". People who have the time, have the time. But, I do think the criteria for rankings needs some changes. Either way, if there's a way to exploit it, it will be exploited over and over.

    What zerg? LOL how did you not see the massive horde of low level blues zerging aleswell and failing to take it. Its funny because the green alliance was a popular subject but now youre accusing blues and red of helping each other lol. AD is irrelevant in haderus latel because the better players are in scourge now.

    As someone frequently hiding on the fringes of said Blue zerg, this is true. I don't know what they're doing. And no, Red and Blue are definitely not working together from what I've seen. Red has a strong Emp in Haderus in a coordinate group, based on what I've seen so far. Which is a relief after the last gap closer exploiting swarm of the previous Red emps.

    Lately its been team purple, wasn't around for team green. I have nothing against alliances helping each other, its part of the game. But when u have a huge map why stick to one castle, counter attack. They push one castle, u counter attack and defend at same time. No one does, everyone wants AP, thats all cyrodill had turns into.
