Each time EMP is killed, he/she/it loses 10% current campaign AP to killing player and counts on leaderboard.

Your thoughts?

    Bear in mind most emps have twice the ap the next person below them has it'll make no difference. They'll turn up at next siege hoover up a zerg and back to enormous ap levels anyway.

    How so?

    I do understand that Emperorship changes with capture of the six keeps.

    The problem might be the guys who seem to do nothing else but PVP all day every day building huge amounts of AP thus not allowing anyone else a chance at it that might not be able to dedicate so much time.

    INB4 mods remove those comments

    Also once you get EMP you should be removed from the leaderboard/can't get EMP again until the reset to let more people get EMP

    SO many times I spend the first day gaining AP the non cheat ways only to say *** it after someone shoots up the board from farming in just a few hours

    For you geniuses this is how it might work.

    Green hunts down red emp reduces his AP and leaderboard position.

    Green players have influx of AP increase individual leaderboard position and a better chance at emp. and greater motivations to dethrone current emp.

    So on with Purple vs Yellow and Orange vs Blue.

    Well for one thing, there is the question of fairness. Why is it fair to take 10% AP from someone because they were killed while being emp?

    I know it's a lot of pressure - but, I'm gonna be looking to you to keep coming up with these comical threads (sure, I know it may not have been your intention for this thread to be a joke - but, sometimes you just gotta go with the flow :) )...

    keep up the great work - you're helping to make my day go by faster at work and keeping a smile on my face...

    If the goal is to cycle through emperors, suggesting something like only being able to be emperor once per campaign duration. This would give 2nd, 3rd, and so on a shot of making it.

    But then we'll likely be back to emp grinding for guilds.

    I don't think it is fair. A lot of emps now have 4 million + AP and them losing 10% of that per death is ridiculous. What happens if said emp runs out of AP? What then?

    Okay...I see your point let's make it 30%. That should do it don't you think?

    So you're saying only couch potato players should be emps?

    The point of the game is to become emp. You do what you have to do to get there.

    Exactly then do what you have to. Simple as that. Only thing I see here is jelly people that cant get emp bc they cant/ dont want to be dedicated enough to get it.

    This is not the special olympics, not everyone will get a trophy. If you want to be emp, then expect it to be an almost impossible quest. Think about it this way, the queen, king and muppet have been trying to get the throne since the game was released and they still dont have it :smiley:

    I could agree with a 'story mode' campaign of Cyrodil where as 'your' alliance leader wins and you can get some buffs (if it is your 'Home' campaign), after a quest or some generic non-pvp earned manner. IMO: it shouldn't have the same prestige as PVP emp, but good enough in the other ways.

    Sorry, but even as much as i hate the PVP here, i dont think punishing someone based on their availability or making an exclusive title easier for the part time / casual player, is the right action.

    Besides, anyone willing to spend their free time in something that almost everyone thinks is broken in one way or another, should not be punished to favor of the player who plays less. They suffered through it, hence they earned it.

    Yes...some of us actually have family, children, responsibilities, jobs, and livelihoods to tend to. This is just a stress relieving and entertaining hobby or pastime for us. So no matter how good I might be or how awesome my gear and build are I might never achieve emp unless I can time the start of a campaign with my game time on the weekends.

    I am not one to have it handed to me by some guild grinding or trade-offs with players being bought out to leave the campaign.
