i dragonleaped them dead, gota upload the vid, was fun thought

When mister @ZOS_BrianWheeler explained how they would process with the new Double AP week including keeps, outposts and ressources, instead of stopping only at killing and healing players, I asked in Twitch chat to @ZOS_GinaBruno a few times "Are there any plans to counter the outpost trading that is going to occurs on less popular campaigns?" The question got ignored and I managed later on to ask one of my contacts who knows an important ZOS employee to ask that person the same question. He got told that there were no plans in place to counter such measure.

Here we are today.

What can we learn from this? As much as I agree with the first though of our PvP lead on testing Cyrodiil performances, I think he could have listened more to advices from active pvpers before increasing the AP gain for capturing objectives. Only doubling the AP for killing and healing players would have convinced people to PvP and engage each other, probably even more than including objective captures on top of that.

As a future reference, I suggest the following system to make it work without any problem. First of all, reduce the overall base AP gain for capturing objectives from the Homestead patch from 1500 to 1000 for ressources, 6000 to 4000 for outposts and 6000 for keeps.

Then, make the amount of AP given to players linked with the objective level (1-5). 1 being the least amount and 5 being the most. Finally, make the amount of AP given scale with the amount of players in the area when the objective flips.

For example :

• If one player flips a ressource level 5, that person gets 1000 APs.
• If 10 players flip a ressource level 5, they all get 100 APs.
• If 4 players capture an outpost level 5, they all get 1000 APs.
• If 8 players capture an outpost level 5, they all get 500 APs.

• If one player flips a ressource level 1, that person gets 200 APs.
• If 10 players flip a ressource level 1, they all get 20 APs.
• If 4 players capture an outpost level 1, they all get 200 APs.
• If 8 players capture an outpost level 1, they all get 100 APs.

Then you add the APs related to the amount of deaths in the area while the objective was contested.

This system discourages zerging, encourages players to hit objectives less contested and stops exploiting.

yea lets just boycot anyone who farmed years for Grand overlord and got Gold thorught aps.
as anyone can just make enought aps in a week. im sure any Long therm pvp Player is happy that there hard work and proud just punched in the face twice.
