What ruins pvp for you?

Vilestride · September 2017

Rewards all useless.

Zergs how dare zerglings zerg. How dare people group up to take keeps and seige and participate in large scale warfare. What do they think cyrodil is? Some massive open world environmet intended to accommodate war like combat? Fools

Things that ruin PvP for me :

Perma blocking
Stam regen in mist form.
being able to flip flags with opposing alliance still alive, stood on them too.

I think i'd be in a happier place if something were done to address the permablockers in PvP, if they can't do it then perhaps they'll shift over to damage, which will make the game much more 'fast paced' and 'engaging' imo

Well... to be honest I only play PvP for... skill points. That is right. Skill pints. I don't care about alliance rank, titles, dyes, unique PvP gear, unique furnitures or end - campaign's reward or even golden PvP jewellery. There is simply no fun and enjoyment in it. It is a grind. And to be even more honest - grinding AP (unlocking Grand Overlord Grade 2) to get all 50 Alliance war skill points is just feels like a bad Sheogorath - style joke.

From a perspective of a solo player - unlocking those skill points is just painful.

But to the point: What ruins pvp for me ? The fact that when I (some day) unlock all AW skill points on may main I will probably don't set a foot in Cyro ever again. It is simply not worth it.

As for the reason.. it is simply a mixture of all of the above (or even more)..
Unbalanced skill, lack of class balance, enormous population disproportions, re-loges (team switching), population exploits, you name it... If I would make a list I might as wall start a separate topic on that...

Getting kicked to console screen. XBOX NA. Also this does not ruin it. It is very annoying.

Rickter · September 2017

poor sportsmanship. Ive had people exploit, teabag, run a scroll carry into the IC moat, stupid player driven stuff like that. kinda kills it for my team.

nothing gameplay wise really "ruins" pvp.

there are inconveniences and frustrations. But nothing powerfully "ruining".

insta heals and the fact that i can, without stealthing, sneak up on an opponent hit him for 1-2 seconds and that character will then beat me down by firing off 7 attacks in a third of a second.

lots of stuff 'ALL OF THE ABOVE" except zergs = i zerg, solo, small group....its all good.

Honestly, the pvp community is the worst part. Pvp attracts the salty ones.

I would say the tank meta is kinda annoying going up against heavy armor players with sword and board who still do crazy damage.

Also pvp is kinda stale, Cyrodiil is just a huge map, yet we are made to always hang around the hot spots (keep,s resources). How many times are we going to take back the same castle fifty hundred million times. It gets really boring. ZOS should add some random events into Cyrodiil to keep it interesting, use the map more it's so huge, but most people will only ever see 20% of it.

SASQUATCH0 · September 2017

Or all of the above..?

The fear of crashing every 5 minutes. And then crashing. RIght before a big tic.

The ability to stealth outside of pots, cp passive and cloak. Get rid of crouch in pvp!

I never cared for stat discrepancies in pvp. Probably why Ive never really enjoyed pvp in mmorpg games. I get that its important to progress your character, but pvp fights should be even and fair, imo. I mean at least in the battlegrounds. Open world pvp, yes anything goes. If thats what we are talking about, then zergs, again because of the unfair advantage of numbers.

Arthg · September 2017

Those doors and gates that JUST.

WON'T.

OPEN FFS.

AND YES I FORGOT TO DODGE-ROLL BEFORE BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO MMMMKAY?

Miswar · September 2017

I could those cancerous heavy armour builds but in the end of the day it boils down to 3 words ZoS

What improvements have they actually done in Cyrodill or IC? Also when was last time someone actually bothered commenting regarding PvP? It has been very long time.

Watched Fengrush last stream today and he pretty much sums it up. If any developers are reading these and than go watch it. Then pause and think... if you don't give a crap than at least balance your servers... anyways the answer is ZoS. So much potential and so much waste of potential due to ignorance.

ZOS. They let gamebreaking bugs linger for years, they don't invest in new AvA content, and they sacrifice PVP balance and performance for PVE-centric design. They don't properly mitigate cheating like memory hacking or discipline cheaters.

They can't even be bothered to close empty campaigns used exclusively for emp trading.

A dedicated Retreating Manuevers spammer for large groups.

This skill needs to be nerfed into the ground. The idea people can literally just run around with perfect mobility at no cost to themselves while doing damage (because it was activated before rapids applied) is absolutely ***. Solo players or small groups have absolutely 0 impact versus large groups because they simply cannot isolate anyone for no other fact than the larger group moves faster with a larger source of immunities (which makes no sense) than the solo/small group.

Also, how are AOEs LESS effective versus the more people you target? Why does a 6 man group going up vs and 18 man group already have it's potential AOE damage literally cut in half?

yeah pretty much this

this is everything wrong with pvp right now. cyro is a joke due to retreating maneuvers, it gives any organized group spamming it a tremendous advantage due to their permanent cc immunity. members of their group cannot be immobilized and focused down like they should be. if you get "caught", you shouldn't just be able to zoom away because someone in your group is spamming an ability nonstop.

Groups of shieldstackers and fagplar BoL spammers. Yesterday we were sieging alessia and on the wall there was a fight, 3v3. Enemies were 1 templar healer and 2 shieldstacking sorc. Fight was going on for ages. At one moment I timed by burst from cloak: heavy attack+incap. Got the templar to about 5%, then he just instantly BoL to almost full health and proceeds to pop shield ult. These kind of fights show the pathetic state of balance. Neither team could kill anyone. Absolute, horrendous pvp.

I log out every time i get perma load screens.

No real reason to win the war/campaign

Perma blockers, perma dodgers, permaspeed (unsnarable/unrootable) guys.

Also totally unbalanced Soul Assault ultimate.
