Is it possible to do battlegrounds or PVP content before 50 ?.

I am lvl 29 NB and would like to access Vigor at the earliest and I have heard that you can get access to that spell only by participating in PVP

    Yes. If I remember correctly, Cyrodiil opens at level 10 so just pick your campaign and go crazy.

    I strongly recommend it. The non vet campaign is some of the most fun I've had in a game. I've leveled several toons exclusively there after level 10, and it's a consistently active campaign, at least on PC NA. Not sure about the other megaservers.

    If you decide for some reason you don't want to play non vet, I advise picking the non cp campaign. As a low level, playing against vet enemies with max CP will probably be more discouraging than anything.

    Fill ya boots. Blackwater Blade is for you, group up and don't underestimate the infant zergs. you're sharing the campaign with people about to level into reality and they're salty.

    Thanks mate.
    Will I still be getting points if i play in either non-vet or non-cp campaigns ?
    My objective is to get access to Vigor

    I would say that its actually better and more even if you get into the under 50, as long as the CP are banned from there.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    Well, the I recommend you not go to Blackwater Blade. It is as fun as described but if AP gain is you sole interest, and not the Alliance War or learning PvP and coordinated group play, only Trueflame is a good place to earn AP (PC/NA, anyway). Sure you'll be ridiculously underpowered compared to others but even if you had a max CP character you'd lack good gear and no matter what you'd stand no chance against experienced players. Even if they were the ones with sub-level-50 characters.

    Don't worry about dying. Go where the action is and defend keeps under attacks. You get part of the accumulated AP earned from kills about a minute and a half after all combat has ceased in a subzone - for instance a Keep or resource like a Farm, Lumbermill or Mine around the Keeps. The rewards are larger in general than conquering a resource. Small towns (the ones not connected by transit lines - Bruma, Cropsford and Vlastrus) and Resources are worth 1500 AP to take and Keeps are worth 6000 AP. You likely won't be able to solo these, even if other players don't intercede.

    Join a group. Watch and learn rather than worrying about killing others or dying (which in PvP has no penalty, no armor repairs - just a long ride back). In Trueflame you can reasonably expect to get Vigor in 2 days even without having the slightest idea what's going on as long as you stick where the action is. Group with others as then you share AP rewards.

    Step 1, get a restoration stick.
    step 2 get mutagen + healing springs.
    step 3, queue up the most active campagin, in our case Europe: Trueflame
    step 4, type "healer LFG(zerg)" or just find fights at keeps/outposts.
    step 5, spam ur mutagen and healing springs on anything, even npc it dousnt matter.
    step 6, Profit, tons and loads of AP.

    You can enter any Cyrodiil campaign at level 10+, and I recommend you go Blackwater Blade (under level 50 campaign).

    I joined PvP before level 50 and before I even knew what CPs where. I was an annihilated. That's when my love for pvp began <3

    Yes, and it is much easier and faster leveling in PVP these days than it was at launch when it took me several months to level up from 10 to veteran ranks in Wabbajack campaign. Now you can reach 50 in a couple weeks just playing the game normally in PVP.

    Note if you want to hold your own against other players, then I suggest to craft a new set of purple gear every 5 to 10 levels or so. The way that the battle leveling for lowbies works now, it is greatly affected by the quality of your gear and how close it is to your current character level.

    Blackwater blade is the campaign for you, as Champion Points are disabled there.

    After you hit level 50, i recommend Azura's star, as it is open for everyone and that campaign also has CP disabled. That way, you are narrowing the advantage gap to players with maxed out CP

    NB enthusiastic:
    1. Woodhippie stamblade - DW hard-hitter / PvE
    2. Know-it-all elf Magblade - Healer / PvE & PvP
    3. Hate-them-all elf Magblade - Destrostaff AoE monster / PvE
    4. Cyrodiil-Refugee stamblade - Stamina Tank / PvE

    Go dominion or go home
