Why am I being forced to PvP?

While we understand others may not agree with what is being discussed attacking one another and being rude is not appropriate. Please remember to be civil and constructive when posting.

First let me thank @ZOS_JohanaB as this was not a rant thread, I can do rant threads and have read a number of them, they normally do more harm then good...

I would also like to thank those who posted information, for example I was not aware the crafting locations are safe zones (if they are), I had not thought about the Invisibility Potions and Dark Cloak (I am a StamBlade, I know, expert floor decoration)

As for the DLC's I own all but Homestead and am a ESO + Member so had access anyway...

I may give it a try for the next one and see what happens, and yes, I am intending to get attunable stations for the hard to reach locations, it's why I got the house I did...

Heck, if it works out, I may try to get the Skyshards too...

Dear god, what a crybaby.

We can port directly into Imperial City? I did not know that.

Unless it changed with the housing update you cannot port directly to IC.

Edit:- Also you can no longer "port to a guildie/friend" to leave IC.

RIGHT?

So it's not about PvP so much really ... first you have to join the PvP server, ride your horse halfway across Cyrodil, then into the Sewer Base, then up the ladder, then down the road to the crafting station. Then find a sewer grate close to your sewer base, then into the sewer base, ride halfway across Cyrodil again, then port bck to Craglorn.

That's like 15 minutes of BS for me if my alliance owns the map. If one of the areas are enemy controlled it could be double or triple that time.

Just for a crafting writ?

A couple things wrong with your story. First, when you leave the sewer base, it ports you straight back to your gate. Second, you are better off entering a secondary campaign that isn't pop-locked which you can do from IC and it will plop you right at the gate in that campaign.

There are even sets that have much worse requirements like doing the fighters guild or Mages guild questline. Now those are really bad, because they force me to do hours of completely useless and stupid PVE just to do one master writ. Mind blown!

Or... you could just bank the writ, and pull it out on your main crafter. Granted, that requires you plan ahead, and not simply accept the writ quest when it gets tossed in your face...

Ugh. This made me so mad. I love being able to port to a friend from IC. I spend all my time in there and I hate when a friend asks me to do something and I can't join him without walking allllll the way back.
