Just choose a number that makes sense, such as divisible by 120, or 30 or something. These cap numbers are weird.

They're not. You can divide them by 3.

I like the CP System. Keep raising it ZOS.

Each build? Possibly, but there are numerous builds. You don't have to follow guides to become viable. There are more ways to distribute according to your build and there are many builds to try out.
The problem is not CP but lack of imagination from the players.

Been at the cp cap for a while now, and I tried out the non cp campaign. Now I can never go back. Even though the same problems exist (healing still too strong, damage without alchemist/hundings/julianos too low), I feel like people are actually punished if they make mistakes instead of just vigor dodge rolling to full health and having their crazy regen bring them up to full stam right after.

Such an insightful rebuttal. Masterful, really.

Thanks

And when they'll stop raising you'll do a post "ZOS we don't have progresion anymore, give us back CP system".

Agreed with you,

Trollers are everywhere and will not stop by one or another way..

In fact, I urge you to lower it back to 501 or even lower. Character customization is nice and all, but the way CP stars work, each build has one ideal/viable CP layout with zero variation. Raising the cap does not change this -- it just numbs gameplay.

PvE content is becoming easier and easier. PvP combat is becoming duller and duller. Skill in both PvP and PvE is shallow. If this is what you intend, then you do not have the long term health and profitability of your game at heart.

The CP system is at the heart of this, but general stamina-magicka imbalance (damage and item sets) and removal of skill based mechanics also contribute.

I have to disagree with most of what you say. It seems for you viable means ideal but thats not the case you can split up your cp as you want depending on what benefits you lile to have. This is mosltly from a pvp or non dd pve perspective as does are not necessarily geared towards only 1 thing to do. (Need more survivability - go more into healing points or whatever) To furthermore advance this, I don't know why people can't stand the fact that if there are multiple ways to do something there will always be on most effective. Wouldn't it be dull for you too if choice didn't matter and you will get the same output no matter what you do?

I agree with that most pve content becomes easier and easier but the core problem to that is nerfs not cp. You can see fhis with the new dungeons/ ic dlc in the last few months. Most people don't want a challenge they just wanna faceroll burn everything without regards to mechanic. BUT if you want hard content go play trials on vet mode including dsa and maelstrom. Those are prettymuch untouched and still have you follow mechanics mostly with vmol being the hardest content in the game.

For pvp its the same its the cp too but not mostly. The real problem are overperforming sets like malubeth/ transmutation/ reactive/ blackrose and many more. Those sets are the real problem of pvp not cp, also if you don't want to play pvp with cp go play on azura.

Also the last point is wrong the stamina - magicka imbalanca comes from sets (vma daggers and bow mostly). Cp are pretty much the same for stamina and magicka.

Your math teacher must be so proud of you now XD

Its simple, you earn and you spend..

Trollers are not going to stop spending CP...

The CP cap is divisible by 3 which makes complete sense due to the CP is placed evenly between 3 areas. Requiring it to be divisible by 30 and especially by 120 would not make sense.

As far as OPs comments, he really does not explain his position well other than he is against raising the CP cap. With that I completely disagree with the little he offers since the devs have delivered us some worthy challenges in the revamped vet trials. Most groups will be, are, very challenged as it is, though all the content is doable.

Additionally, OP does not consider what Zos has taken away from us with the last 2 DLC patches. With DB we saw increased cost of skills and with the recent DLC we saw a reduction in our regen. This reduces sustainability and the added CP does not come close to balancing this out. This is just one example.

Geez, I already knew they were divisible by 3... That wasn't the point... What is 177 in each branch divisible by? That is the point. Yay, 27 left, just shy of another 30 point passive. The number is weird.

ZOS has to keep raising the cap and having new content. People need something to work toward. If they capped CP forever, some folks would quit playing or move on. The donkey isn't going to keep moving down the road if you remove the carrot from the stick. Also, there are two campaigns with no CP, so your point isn't terribly valid.
