Best in Slot - for style

one of these days I need to level my undaunted on some characters...

you must've run through just about every dungeon in the game by now...

How easy it is to game the population is game breakingly bad.

Yep. But the problems run much deeper than that. This is probably my last campaign for a while... I'm just done trying to fight against an absurd number of AD players, and the latest AD-DC push to drop EP to last place yet again. I'm demoralized beyond repair.

Why is EP so hated on the PS4NA server? I seriously don't get it. I'm not usually a conspiracy-minded person but I have to believe what my eyes tell me. The past 2 days I've watched several instances of DC and AD players working side by side in EP resource towers and around EP keeps to kill EP players and hold ground, and the effect it's had on EP morale is devastating.

I have plenty of other games to play and other ways to spend my down time, so I'm not really salty about it. But it's strange to me that the developers have designed a game that is inherently unbalanced and have done very little to address that in the years the game has been out. My faction hasn't won a campaign in more than 8 months. So if I want to win a campaign, I have to roll a yellow like so many other EP players have done? Is that it?

How does that help balance the game? What's my alternative if I want to keep playing? Remain a punching bag on the underdog team and get the least amount of gold for end-of-campaign rewards for the 9th month in a row as a thank-you? Well, no thanks.

If everyone switched to the winning side, Cyrodill would be pretty boring for the dominating faction - there'd be nothing left to take and nobody to fight.

I fear a mass exodus of EP players has already begun. Zone chat tells the story. Long time EP players are few, and tired, and I fear that for many of them it's just stopped being fun. I loved the excitement of battles and I'm sad that it's so uneven now.

I don't hate EP, I just wish their guilds would actually participate in prime time . PVP should be a three alliance war, not two.

I'm sorry for EP not playing guys, it sucks to see you guys feeling that way.

yea, campaign ends today and it's payday for Vivec...unfortunately because it's a new campaign I'll miss out on the 3.3k "loyalty" bonus for each character, but, I'll still collect about 115k (plus 15 epic pieces of jewelry) for all the characters I have in Vivec...

not a ton of coin, but, it definitely helps get me back in the black for my bank...

speaking of coin...since i filled out all my slots for three different guilds i've been able to notice that the guild which i donate 2k (starting this week gonna bump that up to 5k) a week to, the guild which costs me 5k a week - both sell at the same rate as the guild i invest 15k a week in...

ugh, a bit of a dilemma...since i can first remember figuring out what giuld stores were - i had always wanted to be a member of an "elite" trading guild - which is what i saw Back Alley Trading as...unfortunately though - from a merchant perspective - it just doesn't make much sense kicking in 15k a week - when i can potentially sell twice as much for about 10k a week (for SVER True Bloods and Morning Star, both exceptional EP guilds)...

had both of my new wardens just hit level 20...i was going to speed up their level process by using all training traits on their gear and grinding them up a bit...i've decided now though to try to slow their leveling pace...once i hit 100k AP with them in Vivec - i'm going to start playing them in Kyne...i'm interested to see what it'll be like to pick on folks closer to my own level

I will be there for sure.

just thinking about playing my low level characters in Vivec makes me smile - I have to imagine it freaks out/surprises some folks when some low level player comes at them super aggressively (one of my favorite zerg v zerg tactics)

I can still remember the first time I saw something like that it kind of caught me off guard...even more so when I noticed the low level player was doing pretty well...

I notice it all the time with my low level characters - enemy players always seem to try to target them...normally I'll do a bunch of blocking and dodge rolling backwards to drag those enemies back to some allies and things won't end well for them...

I get it though - once you have someone in your sight that you think you can kill - it's awfully hard to back away...

howdy all

having an absolute blast fighting at bleakers - EP has chalman and AD has aleswell and I'm putting in work for our "very underwhelming" king emeric...

in all fairness to my breton liege lord emeric - it has been a while since I've gone through the daggerfall storyline...

hard to compete though with a statuesque altmer queen and a true warrior champion nord...

at times both of the other factions have been inside the outpost - at the same time...not sure what group or other randoms I've been here fighting with - but, they were most definitely defensive siege proficient

last night was on my stam blade...he uses 2H and bow...found a really nice perch to defend from at chalman mine - the rocks northeast of the flag...his bow is pretty buff, so he's able to take resources fairly easy (up to level 3, level 4's and 5's take a little longer)...

eventually - somebody better always comes along though...had a chance to stay there and fight for quite awhile...made me think about finding some other "ideal" resources to defend/snipe at...

4 out of the 10 characters I use rock a bow...i don't really think of it as that great a pve weapon, but, in pvp - it does wonders...

well - the evil red horde has come and taken my spot...

@genosocal in vivec my magplar and stamina sorc are there !

update from my little happy place - Vivec...

as of now - we have a yellow emp, sanj...earlier in the day though red had it with nikoli...

with 19 days to go in the campaign: AD up with 12.2k points, DC next with 11.7k, and EP with 11k...

high score is sanj with around 11 million - that's just mind boggling...happy to say i haben't helped contribute ...haven't run into sanj recently while I've been playing blue...

congrats to @reiverx for getting up there on the big board - 5.6 mil...very nice...you and the missus must be having quite a bit of fun

what type character are you using?

I had a few days off last week so was able to put some time into making some AP. I'll probably fall off the leader board this week.

I'm halfway through Grand Warlord grade 2 with my mDK. When I hit Grand Overlord I'm thinking about switching to a mag sorc for a change of pace. I have one fully leveled. All my other characters except for a dungeon/trials tank aren't above level 25.

I re-did my stam Templar

With continuous attack, SPC, rally she sits ontop of 4000 weapon damage, 1700 stam recovery And 35k stamina with 22k health(24k with emp buff)

She was fun to play yesterday mind gaming people with PoTL is fun when you're surfing zergs

those are some beastly numbers @Takes-No-Prisoner ...are you still playing out of Shor???

the queue times have mercifully decreased quite a bit in Vivec since Shor went live...

had some absolutely epic battles against AD yesterday...tried unsuccesfully 4 or 5 different times to capture faregyl...once even made it to the flags before getting wiped

Edit: I like using PotL along with radiant oppression on my stamplar - some skills are just too much fun not to slot - number one being the jesus beam, followed closely by the javelin knocking folks way the heck back

I did see you at Fare Farm yesterday around 2pm EST. You were with a couple of other blue trying to get back to Fare but we had people sticking around to push back. I tried focusing you twice but you ran back into the sea of smurfs.

right on - I try to keep an eye on my death recaps to see if a friend shows up

The Story of SerJustinIAm visit to Vivec PS4 NA


There once was a DK, from AD whom decided to visit Vivec Ps4 NA, for 1hr before going back to PS4 EU. SerJustinIAm wanted to see how bad was lag, but sadly same as EU.

SerJustinIAm however was well pleased to be used again, more or less. Since he was the original character from PC before switching To PS4 NA, with that 1 platform time switch long long ago.

He has yet to get married sadly, but SerJustinIAm was well pleased all the same. Henceforth SerJustinIAm has a story to tell of interesting things he saw "besides being teabagged twice during his short visit, lol"

SerJustinIAm meant someone, or something, named * Bradley D. *Bradley D, was and is an *Active Player, whom was *eating nachos. Sadly *Bradly D was interrupted and *Da.it" *Bradley D cried afoul with a fist in the air. Or if *Bradley could?


*Bradley D started to go in a keep, after putting out a sign outside, saying "*Nobody Home" SerJustinIAm thought it was very strange, until he saw the reason why when he saw the *Army Of Pharaohs came a knocking; while holding *Salty Lemons.


Behold then came 2 newcomers. * xxChampionsxx of Cyrodiil and The *Southern Blood Wolves. Both of the new comers stared at each other with glee. Some Dedra might call them *Inglorious Bast...s and or *Ebonheart exploitation*.

Many Dedra Might agree, but SerJustinIAm later dismiss the claim. But before the. * thrassian plague, came and went. There was a group called *Thunder Slugs. SerJustinIAm was very interested to see what they have. So he took a look.

The *Thunder Slugs was in a *back alley Trading, to be more precise, they had *Damaged Goods from *Wal-Mart. *Wal-Mart! SerJustinIAm explained allowed with confusion. "Of all the places, Cyrodiil has a *Walmart! It couldn't get any better!"

But turns out it did, when SerJustinIAm became even more speechless when *Fox News Network showed up, reporting this mysterious *Wal-Mart. These where the, * Happy Times; SerJustinIam remembered before he was gone alas. To *F.U. Blues. Which SerJustinIAm thought it meant Fun University Blues.
