Maintenance for the week of December 29:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – December 29

Why does Midyear Mayhem require 50 killing blows, rather than 5000 kill contributions?

    It's easy if you're a sorc. You don't even really need to do much fighting. Just spam Mage's Fury on enemies that others are fighting, and steal kills. Such a dumb system.

    I don't get why the devs obviously never learn... this has been a recurring problem in many different situations. Unbelievable.

    Because kill stealing is literally only a problem in 1 game mode in battlegrounds.

    I'm a little confused what the problem is here. 50 killing blows is pretty much child's play no matter what class you're on, and when you account for a large influx of non-PvPers it becomes even easier. If it was just 50 kill contributions people would just roll with a zerg and get the achievement in 10 seconds.

    Of course it will be easier when a lot of non-PvPers will be there.
    For PvPers.
    And if you are one of those non-PvPers? Who didn't PvP before and will not PvP after, but wants achievements/something that those achievements give? That sounds not so easy.

    For me this event sounds like a lot of suffering. Not because doing something unusual for me, that's not a problem, but because it would be really hard and absolutely not fun. And, yes, that's something not right with my build, because it is not for PvP and killstealing. Damn, that's even not some normal build, but it's enough for quests, exploring and doing public dungeons solo, and usually I don't need and want more. And changing absolutely everything, from skills and attributes to armor, for only some days and never again... that would be stupid and I don't have money enough to waste like this. PvE events could take some time, but they were not difficult both for PvE and PvP players. Not very interesting, maybe, but not difficult. And this event...

    Oh man, that so triggered me..

    Look, not all events are for everyone. As a die-hard PVPer, I have had absolultely no interest in every other event we have had since I started playing. Did I complain about them? NO - because I understand that there are people who play the game who like doing different things than I do who will be enjoying them.

    Now we get one, ONE event aimed at the PVPer and the salt from the other side is unreal.. Oh noes, its gonna be hard, My build isn't right, I'm not gonna have fun.....

    Ok, so here's some answers to those concerns.. These answers are total common sense and some are based on doing the same thing I did with other events.

    1. Its gonna be hard.. Well, its gonna be harder if you don't have a decent build for it, you don't know how to PVP, if you don't want to try, to learn, to challenge yourself. But damn - 50 kills over a week, for a real PVPer is a ridiculously small number (remember who the event is aimed at).

    2. Your build isn't right... If you want to take part and do well - GET A NEW BUILD. I understand that unlike the average PVPer, many PVEers are quite cash-rich. I mean all you really need to do is change some gear and skills. You can always change it back. I mean I have to use a different build to do PVP stuff to get gear so I can PVP..

    3. You're not gonna have fun.. Well, only if you decide you're not before you start (ie going in with a closed mind) - and don't put any effort into trying to do well (ie getting a build, learning a bit about PVP first)

    And the biggest bit of advice which applies to all 3 of the above - ESPECIALLY 3 - is that if you don't have fun - don't do it. This is what I did with the other events we've had. Running around from A to B, back to A, now to C, back to A.... noo - bored with that now, back to PVP. Yeah, I didn't get the achievement, some of the rewards etc... but so what? I had fun with my time doing what I like doing.

    Simply put - Not every event is for everyone - if you don't like it, simply don't do it instead of pissing on everyone else's parade.

    I havn't played the halloween event but the other 2 could literary be done in 1 hour even with a level 3 character. What is there to complain about? This event will be super painfull and take extremley long for all non PvPers...

    Why will the event take super long.

    The main achievement people are crying about e.g. 50 killing blows can be done in a hour via firing fire trebs at zergs.

    It will even out over time, its probably killing blows as 50 assist will go 10x faster.

    I have had keep defenses net me over 50 kills firing fire ballistas into the breach. This achievement should take an afternoon at most. Also, if you want a quick way to get it, jump into a no-CP campaign.

    Ohhhh, PvP = Player vs Player, how you expect to kill that player as a tank or healer?

    Go in Trials if you wanna tank or heal, both are useless in PvP if you are full spec on one, you need to be a mix of dps/tank/support on both healer and tank, not just one, PvP is not vMol.

    Not even that. My healer and tank simply go to the non-CP campaigns by default, since I don't want to redistribute the CP every time for maximum effectiveness. They stay in the optimum configuration for their PvE role, and then change only the gear, mundus and consumables. The DDs go to the CP ones.

    Oh man, that so triggered me..

    Look, not all events are for everyone. As a die-hard PVPer, I have had absolultely no interest in every other event we have had since I started playing. Did I complain about them? NO - because I understand that there are people who play the game who like doing different things than I do who will be enjoying them.
    I also didn't find all previous activity most interesting part of game. I did it because I needed something from it. I'm speaking not about interest, I speak about difficulty. As a PvPer, you also could easily do previous events.

    Now we get one, ONE event aimed at the PVPer and the salt from the other side is unreal..
    It's a time like other events, it's in achievement section of other events, furniture for this achievements sells holiday achievement vendor, not that one from Cyrodil or somebody else...
    It looks like a holiday event, it smells like a holiday event, it tastes like a holiday event, in game it IS presented like holiday event for everybody, not pure PvP event!
    And, yes, I want that achievement furniture skeletons, and I have to do this achievement, because, you know, they are only such skeletons I've saw in game.
    Biro123 wrote: »
    But damn - 50 kills over a week, for a real PVPer is a ridiculously small number (remember who the event is aimed at).
    I'm absolutely sure it's easy for real PvPer. Not so easy for others.
    Biro123 wrote: »
    I understand that unlike the average PVPer, many PVEers are quite cash-rich. I mean all you really need to do is change some gear and skills. You can always change it back. I mean I have to use a different build to do PVP stuff to get gear so I can PVP..
    Many, but not all. For many it's not just like throwing away few coins, it's a lot. I know people who didn't even see 50k!
    Because having a lot of money needs a lot of time and farming.
    I have more, but still not enough to change all for 10 days and quickly buy good armor. That would be just senseless.

    Well, only if you decide you're not before you start (ie going in with a closed mind) - and don't put any effort into trying to do well (ie getting a build, learning a bit about PVP first)
    I tried Cyrodil and found it a most empty and boring place in whole TESO.
    PvP for me have two modes: "die quickly" and "fight ridiculously long, until someone will get bored and run away".
    That's not "before you start".

    Simply put - Not every event is for everyone - if you don't like it, simply don't do it instead of pissing on everyone else's parade.
    PvP has own achievements. I don't complain about not having them, and I understand that I can't have some alliance furniture.
    PvE has own achievements. I know I will not have much veteran. It's normal.
    But this is damned holiday event, it should be for everyone!

    Understand me: I'm ready to spend time. I'm ready to die a lot. But these achievements are made in a way, that doesn't guarantee that my time and attempts will provide any result, and it is for limited time.

    Im just going to wait for the complaint threads after the event when people realize that unless youre in PvP all the time and youre also a regular PvPer with a PvP build. Youre likely not going to get 50 kills and anyone trying to be a completionist will not complete this in time.

    pretty much. anyone who pvp's regularly don't realize or think its an issue because they . . . wait for it . . . pvp regularly.

    If you can't collect recipes in time - you can at least buy them.

    Guys, if you haven't figured out that you can gather a couple friends from different factions and then go to some far corner of cyrodiil on an underpopulated noCP campaign, then take turns reviving and killing each other... then I don't know what to tell you.

    This achievement sounds easily cheesed for those who just don't like pvp or who normally run builds that don't kill things.

    Don't make such a huge deal over something like this. Don't come back and say, "UNFAIR I PLAY SOLO AND DON'T HAVE FRIENDS TO CHEESE ACHIEVEMENT" because at that point... It's used a bit too much, but if you are adamant about never grouping or playing with anyone, then you pretty much chose the wrong game.

    Getting the killing blows isn't as difficult as I thought. I'm just a healer and got 12 KBs in about 4 hours. So getting 50 in 10 days seems doable.

    Pay me 70m and 1 potato and I'll stand there and allow you to kill me 50 times.

    I see a business opportunity here... we can go into some remote delve and have customers queue up at the door, with a reviver standing by.

    July 20th -31st.... 11 days...50/11=4.5

    That is less than 5 kills per day. If you cannot get 5 kills per day you do not deserve an achievement.

    Executes are still garbage if the target is above 50% health, this changes nothing about PVP.

    Good luck if you are a DK.

    If you can't get 50 kb's in 11 days you don't deserve the achievement.


    I fired a cold fire treb as well as a few fire trebs into a zerg for like an hour and by the time i bothered checking it already had the achievement.

    Is it possible to grind through duels? I know the boxes can't be obtained via duals but maybe kills can?
