Lowbies and CP People in Cyrodiil - Give Lowbies a Break

Even though there is a Cyrodiil campaign dedicated to low level people, you will still run into them in CP campaigns. Even though you can't tell how much cp they have, you can tell how new they are to the game by armor, mount, or the way they fight. I run into them on occasion when running in Trueflame or Haderus, and I can quickly tell if they new people or just alts. I don't usually engage unless they attack first, then I wreck them if I can (scaling can be a *** at times). However, if they don't fight and just want to grind, quest, or explore, I either help them or go on my merry way. I don't see many other high cp people doing the same, which is a shame. We have a major advantage vs new players, and it hurts to see a poor lvl 15 newbie be wrecked.
With this, I ask any other CP players to do a few things with little babies running around in Cyrodiil:
- Tell them to go to Blackwater Blade, where it's safest for them.
- Leave them alone if they're trying to flee.
- Don't be a jerk to them by harrassing them. They're just babies compared to a capped player.

    If a lowbie is running in a zerg, they're fair game. If they try to attack me, they're fair game. If they have attacked me before and I'm alone and they're with several others...my memory is long and they're fair game. If they're just trotting by on their horse I generally don't attack from stealth.

    I agree with this. If they're looking for trouble like this, then by all means, fight back.

    It seems like every time I give some lone lowbie a pass, they turn up later in the night with a mob. Still, I try to be nice. Unless their faction has annoyed me that day.

    Ahhh see I would love to do this, it's just...I tend to hate everyone in Cyrodiil :lol: But on a serious note, I usually try to avoid lower levels when ganking (unless I know it's an alt). Yet, if I gank a high level in a group and it's the lower level that sends hate tells...well, their days of pve zombie farming in blue's sewers are long over ;).

    Chances are if I see you in IC or the surface of Cyrodiil, I'll either attack you or evade you, depending on how I feel.

    But if I see someone in a delve, I won't attack unless attacked first, that way someone can get their skyshard without being bothered.

    I have only very rarely encountered kena, so I have no idea. I wasn't really taking a shot at him but the 'farm randoms, ap/hr, taking candy from babies' mindset of competitive ESO players.

    Personally, I get more enjoyment from wiping a group with randoms than wiping randoms with a group.

    In my day, when one reached the point of owning public servers in an FPS, it was time to join a clan and value was based on success against other clans. Public server achievements were meaningless -- no one talked about pubs because no one cared.

    I'm disappointed competitive GvG has never really manifested itself in ESO. At least not in NA. Instead it's 8 hours of "let's see who we can goad into this choke (like we have been doing for 2 years)!!!!!!!"

    Let's see titles, rivalries, public bragging rights, etc... I'm sure 'friendlies' happen on occasion, but those are meaningless skirmishes. It's not a match unless something is on the line.

    Let's face it. Generally speaking, competitive ESO players prefer to shoot fish in a barrel. It's been that way since I started PVPing in Aug 2014. Perhaps I missed something awesome before then, but I doubt it.
