    @Takes-No-Prisoner I made this because it can be distracting and annoying for some people and there are times when people invites someone duel and they don't want to do it

    Do you avoid quests with armies sparring?

    No, but it should be stopped in all busy areas, lag, and annoyance (or at least get the guards involved)

    Yes, remove dueling from cities - everywhere where player does not have to wait 10 seconds to log out (safe zone) dueling should be removed or at least, city guards should kill on sight people who duel within city area.

    Guards should not kill on sight , there's no good or lore reason for them to. The combatants have agreed to engage in an honorable fight to the death.

    Also, if you're one of those that just doesn't like dueling for the noise/visuals, welcome to MMOs, where you're going to encounter other people that do things you can't control or hide.

    You can turn your effects sound down while in a city. Problem solved.

    If it's at a wayshrine, how long are you hanging around a wayshrine after spawning that it annoys you? Just leave. Problem solved

    If it's at a merchant hub or undaunted enclave, turn your effects sound down. Problem solved.

    If for some reason it's at a merchant in the middle of nowhere, you're not going to be there that long so just ignore it and leave.

    You people calling for this removal/change really have no leg to stand on. The impact dueling has on you is very minimal unless you've got a garbage pc or garbage internet. In that case don't try to take content from us because you can't run it.

    Although as I said in my other comment, if it's on console then that's something that should be considered for console only since you can't help it.

    I would kind of like it restricted in where it can happen so that the wayshrines are less crowded. I know I am not being hit by duelists if I walk through the middle of them but I would think they would be irritated by people standing in the middle of their duel so why set it up at a wayshrine, or crafting spot or in the crossway between the foot of a bridge and the only path away from said bridge, all of which I have been in the middle of.

    Removed ? Definietly not.

    But if there would be some arenas outside cities on certain zones like 1 for each alliance , with daily quests for example "win 10/20/50" duells with some AP or gold or set piecesd rewards that would be nice and would remove many people from duelling inside cities which is sometimes annoying.

    Nope. Not at all. One of the most fun aspects of the game is dueling with friends for giggles. Especially if you pick unusual spots. For example on some random cliff where if you fall off, you're dead from fall damage. Most fun I've had recently was dueling a friend in her house. Rules were that you had to stay on the upper level of the home.

    Well, if people like doing it, then ZOS should _definitely_ remove it. You have proven your case!

    I think one of the most annoying things about dueling is you getting ready to go into a dungeon with your guild and this idiot usually a dude in a dress starts bunny hopping around you spamming

    Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!! Duel ME!!!!

    Duel ME!!!! COWARD!!!!!!!!!

    You report him but nothing happens, you mute him and he logs in with one of the 10 alts he bought for six bucks on the humble bundle and continues where he left off.

    It should only be restricted. Ideally dueling should only happen in dueling arenas where you can spectate, bet, and compete in leaderboards for items or gold. Though I can understand people's frustration with dueling when a few duelers end up crashing ESO for half the people in mournhold.

    The combatants might have agreed but the citizens did not. Disturbing of public order it is.

    Not gonna comment on rest of your arguments since its like telling someone to change bus/train if they dont like when someone is blasting trash music through their phone speakers instead of using earplugs.

    One way to get it out of busy locations would be to allow for the duelers AoEs to hit nearby NPCs and trigger the justice system.

    I think it's silly for a guard to just walk through the middle of a duel inside the Wayrest Bank Arena.

    @TamrielSaviour215 crafting mainly, it's just that when I see someone dueling I forget to craft or look into my inventory

    So they should remove part of the game because it distracts you from looking in your inventory? Really? This is sad

    Here's the fix for it, make it so that players have to be at least 110 meters away from any given wayshrine to be able to duel. Why 110 meters? That's well above the draw distance for things.
