    Most likely 2 players will con-sensually agree to fight each other then scream at each other in zone chat after the fight for the next 30 minutes.

    I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.

    I hope there is a 'permissions' system, to prevent stalking & ganking, with the claim 'It was a duel, man, get over it'

    massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining, and a source of
    mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it. ”

    82. Victory laps after killing the dragon with my 1d2 bow is considered in poor taste.
    83. My gnome does not like big butts and he cannot lie.
    84. Not allowed to talk my fellow inquisitors into buying a 220lb pull crossbow.
    85. Not allowed to talk my fellow inquisitors into buying an industrial strength flamethrower.
    86. Not allowed to make a superhero with a 99% chance of dodging even after the -10 penalty for a successful called shot.
    87. There is no such thing as a dwarven katana.
    88. My bard does not get a bonus to perform if she is obviously not wearing anything under her tabard.
    89. The elf's name is not Legolam.

    Not a fan of 1x1 but I hope they also implement an arena with leaderboards and allow people to watch and bet! I think would be a superb addition to the game, lore correct and appease all audiences. Duels should have an auto decline feature for those who don't want to be bothered by the system. I'm on the fence whether we should allow duels in the towns. I can make crowded places even more laggy or disturb roleplaying for some.

    Not looking forward to this (especially if in cities)
    I'm not against duelling but I have participated in 1vs1 in ESO many times and they can go on indefinitely (more often than not)

    It's a fail on pretty much most mmorpg's.
    ESO is definitely not the only or infact worst mmorpg I have seen AC being an issue.

    I don't want this in the cities. Imagine how the area around wayshrine in Mournhold would look like as people already spam mystic orbs like crazy all the time...
    If outside the city walls, I don't really care. I don't like it and I won't be doing this for sure. But as many have wanted this to be a thing for so long, so be it. But stay away from the cities.

    I like how people are complaining about animation canceling or "ruining my mershun" when the biggest issue is going to be either a lack of battle spirit so one shot builds will reign supreme, or they'll introduce some form of battle spirit into PvE and suddenly all the content becomes a lot, lot harder.

    I don't mind if dueling happens in cities; however I hope that duelists have to deal with the guards if there's any collateral damage. I vote that instead of being killed or having to pay a fine, the duelists get to spend time in the stocks ... and we can PvP rotten egg and tomato throwing at the afore-mentioned characters for the next 5 minutes .. as a mini game perk for the PvE & RP crowd. :smile:

    Even have a town-crier read out the list of grievances ... "<insert player's name or this dirty rotten scoundrel> has been found guilty by the municipal fathers of <insert name of city> on the charge of willfully disturbing the peace and roasting Amelia Hostia's pet chicken with a stray fire bolt .. she-he is to be put in stocks forthwith and to be pelted with rotten eggs for being so careless ... etc, etc."

    Just my thoughts. It should be a setting. Default set to non-duel in pve. When set to duel, other players can send a duel request to that player. If accepted, the two players can duel. There. Easy as pie and no one who doesn't want to be bothered with thousands of duel requests doesn't get them.

    This is the only logical way it cold work, though 30 minutes is a little long, probably more like 3-5 minutes and it becomes a draw if neither are defeated in that time. There may be some safe zones. Outside of that idk since dueling always seemed silly to me, buy hey, some like it.

    Arenas make more sense. Hated those other games with dueling where people with big epeens spam duel requests everywhere you go.

    The timer they spoke of was not on the actual battle, but on the amount of time they spend after the battle talking smack to each other in zone chat.

    Well here comes aimless ppl waisting time in places. My hope is that dueling is not allowed in towns which would push ppl outside and not create crowding in towns

    Other than that....have at it

    I used to play a MMO where dueling was allowed to take place in certain inns in every city.

    The dueling area was always separate from the main bar area and a prompt always came up if you entered the designated space, informing you that this was a PVP area,

    You could then either choose to just watch or access a menu which gave I think 3 different types of matches you could participate in.

    I think something along these lines would keep everybody happy. :)

    Duelling is not really the issue - perma griefing is, if there are no permission locks put in place.
