KRBMMO✭✭✭✭I would be happy if we had both CP and no CP BGsNon-CP and under 300 CP will just be slaughtered.
Interesting thing is that's basically why I went from WOW to ESO. I had zero chance in WOW battlegrounds unless I had a Max level character. Everyone kept telling me: "Put 1,000 hours into the game and THEN you'll have fun." WTF?
With CP battlegrounds there really is no reason for a person under CP 400 to buy Morrowind at 4x the price of the Base Game. Unless you just like to spend all your time in battlegrounds respawning.Edited by KRBMMO on October 18, 2017 1:20AM5 -
HEBREWHAMMERRR✭✭✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPNon CP offers the most competitive environment for BGs. Adding CP is going to litter this cyrodill-safehaven with the same unkillable cancer builds that are all over cyrodill. It’s not good for the game. I hope they relook at this.2

✭✭No! It should stay No CPTanks are tanky but not unkillable in no-cp, once you reduce their block and break free costs and then throw in all the extra mitigation things just become that much more obnoxious.
Additionally I don't like the fact that anyone between cp10 to 690 will be grouped together. Right now newbies get spanked for not being very good at PVP, under the new system they will get double spanked by the fact that they don't have access to the additional power that CP brings.Lord and Savior of the Association of Serious S***posters.

✭✭✭✭I would be happy if we had both CP and no CP BGsI'm just gonna say, I can't wait to farm the scrubs that think CP are gonna make them good in BGs. When you've got people that build a group comp from the ground up with the CP system you'll be able to do incredibly broken things.

✭✭I would be happy if we had both CP and no CP BGsI'm sorta indifferent... I think non CP is less fun but it is generally more wholesome. But I like CP becuae that means I can customize my character to my play style, I tend to dodge a lot even on a magikca character, CP enables me to do this without drastically changing my play styleFlawless Conqueror ~ Grand OverlordShe/Her ~ PC/NA | I record things for fun and for info1 -

Wellfitted and some stam regen are a lot more effective for that than a couple more CP in the dodge cost star. And on no CP it's actually quite easy to get that stam regen with one of the sets that offer both magicka and stamina regen.
I understand what you mean, of course. Though I've also got to say that the way the CP system allows for customization really isn't the best one should be able to think of - mostly static bonuses and a big base stat increase on top of that.
You'd think something that's meant to customize your character to your playstyle would be focused on changing things, maybe giving the better perks some serious drawbacks even, not simply make everyone stronger by increasing the stats they already invest into.DAGON - ALTADOON - CHIM - GHARTOK

✭No! It should stay No CPI'm amazed that anyone thinks CP-enabled BGs are a good idea from a long-term perspective. Does the, "I earned my CP, I want to use them!" crowd understand just how long it's going to take a newer player to grind out all the CP necessary to catch up to already-maxed players? If you were primarily/exclusively interested in non-zerg PvP, and had ~200 CP, would you keep playing? I can 100% guarantee that I wouldn't. Requiring that one spend a tremendous amount of time doing an exceedingly boring PvE grind, just so that they can PvP on a somewhat equal footing, is a bad idea.6 -
JWillCHS✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPThe premade I ran with last night just made me realize how broken this game can be with CP. It was funny........but not fun at all.

HEBREWHAMMERRR✭✭✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPI’m really not looking forward to CP enabled BGs for the same reasons stated. I know how broken it is and my build is going to be damn near unkillable while kicking out some nasty damage
I know anyone sub 690 is not going to enjoy what they’re up against and probably will kill off any chance of growth BGs might’ve had.
Unfortunate, really. I’m sure we won’t see any consideration for a reverted changes or choice between NonCP for another major patch. I’ll probably shelf the game out of boredom...1 -
Vanzen✭✭✭✭✭Problem with the new cp cap is that its really now possible to get multiple op passives and high stats all accross the board w/o sacrificing anything.
690 cp is really a turning point.
I feel for those with less cp in BG.0 -

haakira✭✭✭I would be happy if we had both CP and no CP BGsI'm sure people that are not at cap CP (myself included) would prefer to wait on a longer queue while doing other stuff than wasting 15minutes respawning over and over.
Both CP and No CP options should be available.0 -
DeHei✭✭✭✭✭I would be happy if we had both CP and no CP BGsI like CP more then no CP, but best solution would be to give both.
But generally i think CP BGs are better to handle with a team of 4 guys.

bubbygink✭✭✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPOne of the Wardens I typically queue with is like 250 CP. He does very well in no-CP BGs. What is he supposed to do now that he's going to be at such a disadvantage going against players with 400+ more CP than him? Totally unfair in a small-scale PVP environment. In Cyro where things are more dynamic and the victor in a fight is often dependent on the size of your group, it isn't a big deal to have low-CP. But in 4v4v4 it puts your team at serious disadvantage if one of your 3 teammates only has 250 CP. These players will be left in the dust. Such a travesty IMO.
Those of you saying "I want to use the CP I've earned" are being so short-sighted. You won't be able to use "the CP you've earned" at all when BGs are a total wasteland because all the non-max CP players quiet them.

TarrNokk✭✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPAfter playing about 30 BG games since yesterday I feel bad with CP implemented. For me it's no more fun. Bye bye BG minigames.1 -
MopeyHat✭✭✭✭No! It should stay No CPCasual battlegrounding is pretty much dead.
Played 3 battlegrounds today, each a different mode. The same all-tank, two-templar premade won all three, with the only real competition being in the Capture the Relic game. Deathmatch and Chaosball were a joke.
Used to be even a random group would have a good chance against these people. Now they have complete statistical advantage. And there's not many people queuing so you end up against the same *** every time.

They should simply take a page out of the only MMORPG that has got even near competent instanced PvP (GW2) and give every player max CP for BG.

Yeah. The populations did not see a dramatic increase. I was watching Jules solo queue in BGs while playing them myself. Played in 5 back to back games with her, Noble, and a few others.Edited by JWillCHS on October 27, 2017 6:35PM1 -
