This is not an issue for me, but I'm a little saddened by one aspect of this event. I was derping around with one of my friends that needed AR for vigor and caltrops yesterday. He is a PVE tank in 5 ebon, 5 histbark, and 2 EG. None of it is impen. We took a resource in Xerxes, and he called out some yellow in voice. Well, "some yellow" ended up being 11 people. Here's the weird part.

I'm not a great PvPer. I'm kinda a scrub tbh. Me, my friend, and a passerby DC (halfway through the fight) killed all eleven like something out of a Fengrush video. None of us ever went below maybe 75%, the other players melted with one or two jabs, and the whole thing lasted maybe 45 seconds.

I felt like crap.

For many, this is their first time out in Cyrodiil. There is ONE non CP campaign, and it is pop locked. Maybe we impliment a campaign for anyone under alliance rank 10 so that these noobs don't get absolutely massacred? I dunno, my tank buddy really enjoyed it. It's good that people are trying this event too! But it feels like the even somewhat experienced players may make this a bad experience ( not their fault either- you're all walking AP :p).

Thoughts?

    I have alts that are under 10 alliance rank.

    Not saying I would, but people would certainly roll in such a campaign on alts just for easy kills.

    probably, lots have separate PvP characters.
    Will take my level 48 warden to Kyne today, I will bring end game gear for then I hit 50, she is mostly an healer so I will focus on leveling healing skills in zerg.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    It is easy and fast to gain rank 5-6 these days. Used to take time invested. Now one can sit in a keep under attack and get it pretty fast.

    Further, there is not much weakness in being lower lvl in alliance rank. The players you defeated so easily were not geared well and that is a choice. Having a campaign you suggest offers no actual benefit since it is the players build and their skill that make the difference.

    I hadn't even considered this, and now I feel silly.

    The only consolation is that an individual would only be able to stay in that campaign so long, and even with alts I don't imagine the whole campaign duration. That said, yeah...maybe back to the drawing board xD
