Why leave the 3 7day cp camps on??

olsborg · September 2017

I tought they both Kastav and Xarxes would be removed after the ap event, but they are still there, and now as a result of it they are all 3 basicly a buffserver and pretty much dead for good pvp, why wasnt they removed? Preevent it was only Shor, and it had great pvp there during prime time, becasue as we all know, vivec is F unplayable during primetime.

Well, Buff Servers do not exist in this game any more as PvP Buffs do not exist out side of Cyrodiil.

As for their existence, it makes PvE alot nicer up there, so in my mind they can leave them in place.

They use them mainly to farm telvar, wich is alot easier if your group is fully buffed by all keeps and scrolls and emp bonus, and even easier if the emp is in your group or you are the emp. Go check out each camp, they are all one color 99% of the day.

I bombed a group of EP Telvar farmers as emp the other day in Xarxes.... 42k Telvars rained on me.

I sigil'd away ASAP lol.

PVP campaigns should never exist for the purpose of PVE. That diminishes the value of PVP rewards. You're supposed to have to fight for them -- or at least deal with the risk of PVP.

With that said, I imagine they've been left up for: https://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/26175?Liberate-Cyrodiil-During-the-Imperial-City-Anniversary-Event-and-Earn-Bonus-Rewards!

Yet watch only Vivec be full and yet the overland be sparsely populated while IC takes up the space.

OMG, just imagine the bombblade mania IC is going to turn back into!

Yea, probably Telvar. I don't farm Telvar so that did not occur to me. If it was not for the Explorer Achievement, I would not even be in Cyrodiil.

I'd say they have left them open for the IC event and then hopefully they will take them down. They are really not good for the PvP population who want to play on a 7 day CP campaign.

They should bring back the ability to use that code to jump into any campaign for the event. Not much point in having event-friendly extra campaigns available if it's cost-prohibitive to switch guest campaigns to use them.
