To all the people that have issues getting the 50 Killing blows...

Zordrage · July 2017

Sieges....

realy thats all...

how you guys have issues with this archivement i have no idea...

i did it on my healer my tank on my 2 DPS and even on my experimenting char that is so badly build right now that it barely can even hurt people or survive anything lol...

and i wasnt even going after this archivement its just pop up that i finished it....

seriously how the hell you people have issue with this ?

the only way to not get this archivement if your the Person that just joins a group goes to a keep under siege and AFKs for free AP while watching a movie....

And how many hours of play do you get to play? This achievement does not reward team play and if you are on when there is not much happening or you don't have that much time to play, this is a hard achievement to get.

I have been playing on 2 characters for the event and would only have 50 kills between them. I am usually the stupid schmo doing the team thing, putting up the siege weapon to either knock down the wall of a keep or try and destroy the attackers siege weapons.

The only hope for my characters is to siege or defend using only a cold fire ballista because under normal circumstances in a siege I do not get the final shot in and this is the only weapon that does enough damage to kill someone on it's own.

I did that achievement in third day of the event as Stamblade zerfling, not a big deal. It may be hard for no damage healers.

Remag_Div · July 2017

I got my last few in a BG. Seems like it would be much faster grinding out kill there than in Cyrodiil.

itehache · July 2017

Even though I can't really understand the point of your post, I agree with you. I got my achievement without even realising it, the first afternoon playing around 4 hours with my friends.

I did get them all that same afternoon except the BG because it was bugged. Did not play anymore until that got fixed, and that same Monday I got all the achievements.

I am not very good at pvp (not terrible either) and I did not have that much time to play this event (due to work reasons) so I was pretty sad, I thought I would not get this achievements xD I did not expect to get them all so quickly.

I'd say the main problem for people who cannot get these achievements is the lack of a guild/friends. We run a Spanish pve guild with plenty of different events, and these 2 weeks we are holding a special PVP event to help all of our guildies get the achievements. So, even the person who never stepped in cyrodiil is getting the nice achievements

I also do the siege stuff xD It is not stupid, how else is your team going to break the doors?

Something the battlegrounds taught me is to STEAL kills. I know it is mean, but, as a stamina NB little I can do face to face hahah. I pretty much walk around hidden until I see someone almost dead and BANG poison arrow for him. If I had a DK I'd probably be braver

I am not terrible at normal Cyro face to face but to get the kills for the achievement is better to steal muahaha

It depends on class/build, and whether console or PC.

On console you can sneeze and get a killing blow. On either console or PC, if you want to grief, you can steal almost all KBs until the door goes down as a sorc. I do it to my friends all the time, drives them nuts.

Lol, console has much bigger groups of higher cp, higher skilled players. Watch a console vs pc streamer sometime and see who find groups of cp 200's only light attacking.

Beardimus · July 2017

People are complaining? Really? Event is way too easy to get. This should have been 200, make those laurels rare.

Everyone will have them now. Everyone

Actually play on both sides of the house and you will see the difference. I personally don't think it has anything to do with skill. I think it's due to PC macroing being much easier than console. If you look around the forums, healers talk about how they can dratically increase their HPS with macros.

Both console and PC streamers typically look for a group of the worst or lowest level players they can find. You know. For the "highlight reel." So, not a good example,

Why not bring in RNG - you get the achievement and open a chest for a .01% chance of a Laurel - every 50 kills you get another chest.

And BTW, I think gold is too easy to get, lets quadruple the price of everything you want to buy.

Smmokkee · July 2017

This was like one of the very first ones i got. Solo. 50 kills is a joke.

ExcaliburESO · July 2017

Got 50 kills in first 3 bg games! xD

Yeah man, I got this achievement in the first day of the event just from spending one evening in battlegrounds

Unfadingsilence · July 2017

I play solo Stam nb and got the 50 within the first 2 hours it was not hard L2P

Vercingetorix · July 2017

Spam your class execute from the back of a zerg. If you're a DK or Warden, sucks to be you. It's really quite simple.

if your counter seiging with cold fire (attacking their seige) how have you not got 50 kills yet? when i attack an enemy seige machine it causes AOE damage -while competent people are able to 'get out of the stupid' most people dont!

if people dont have access to battle grounds they arent going to b able to complete the event anyway- so does it even matter?

BlazingDynamo · July 2017

I found playing battlegrounds to be the easiest. Or just cheese it and get a buddy from another alliance to let you kill him 50 times..

max_only · July 2017

I couldn't get this achievement by siege. People were sitting behind their siege and not pushing into a keep that had 2 breaches! That drives me nuts lol I guess I'm too much of a team player to just sit behind siege and spam it forever, I feel compelled to capture keeps! Since I always play medic/healer, I can best accomplish this by supporting damage dealers.

Battlegrounds was the only way I got this achievement. There are low odds that you will win a BG when you are in a random group going up against Premades, may as well just go in for the kills.

Stinkyremy · July 2017

Actually forget sieges for the achievement.
Just do battlegrounds.
I did PvP in cyrodiil for a day and had 25 killing blows for the achievement.
Did 2 battleground deathmatchs and got the other 25.
Just dropped caltrops in the big battles.
Even if I was dead the caltrop kills counted.

Ch4mpTW · July 2017

On my MagDK, I got it the achievement from siege (probably). On my MagSorc, I got the achievement from using Mage's Wrath and wearing 5pcs. Vicious Death. I got those 50 kills with the quickness on my MagSorc. As in approx. 25-30mins. Implosion and Mage's Wrath is some cheese with VD. Especially VD paired with oil siege in those large keep battles. Lol.

coop500 · July 2017

Not everyone is a master player with super fast reflexes, I tried siege but everyone I shot at was smart enough to not just stand there and let me shoot them.

In Battlegrounds I had horrible luck, I kept getting stuck with only 2 teammates, so it was always 3 vs 4, once the other two teams find out as well they seem to group up and pick on us, making it a 3 VS 8. You can't kill stuff when you are basically being zerged in Battlegrounds.

I got it today finally, abusing my WW form for that bleed, fear CC and fast powerful attacks but it's not a easy cakewalk unless you're a long time player. PVP or PVE

Chelo · July 2017

Almost got 30 kills in just 1 BG, just use your executes

Thank you for your narrow mindedness - this thread is simply about the 50 kills achievement.

FloppyTouch · July 2017

Idk I got it in one hour was really easy

Knootewoot · July 2017

I had it done on the first day, and mostly I was spamming mutagen and purge because everybody was to busy trying to get kills instead of heals. Took me about 3-4 hours to get it by occasionally cast a meteorite or hurl a boulder from a trebuchet into a keep.

wolfie1.0. · July 2017

To be fare lag and other issues mean its harder for some people than others.

Rahotu · July 2017

I much prefer to give out free killing blows.i'm generous like that
