At 7:30 pm EST every night it’s usually anyone’s guess what ability is gonna work... so.. there is your variety.

There are a lot of different play styles you can partake in within Cyrodiil.

• Solo
• Small group
• Medium group
• Large group
• Kush

What you can do in your group size then varies pretty heavily but falls into multiple basic objectives.

• Scouting
• Backline defense
• zerg surfing
• counter siege
• capture keeps/resources with just your group
• defending
• being a *** in zone chat
• 1vX
• guild v faction
• suicide bombs
• farming
• scroll running (can turn into pretty awesome fights)

You'll see a lot of recurring situations for sure.

• DC constantly floods Chal
• AD constantly floods Ash
• Back and forth zerg fights between two unlit keeps
• Guild groups completely rolling all players in your faction while you just /facepalm from the sidelines

Maybe PvP is a little better on PC, but I really like the freedom to sort of go anywhere and do whatever I want in Cyrodiil that you don't really get in PvE.

That seems like a lot of options on paper, but in actual game, under circumstances like this:



.. it boils down to:

1) Follow or join either 'Nikel" zerg or "Chalman" zerg.
2) Lurk at DC.

EDIT: and that had been perhaps one of the better states, because it then developed into this:



...with options shrinking to:

1) Lurk anywhere and then rush to roflstomp (because entire faction, unable to pretend that it cares about scrolls anymore, has nothing else to do) any sign of uprising.

Slaughterfish lol. The true Emperor of Cyrodil will forever be a slaughter fish. They are undefeated.

I definitely do like the RNG on visual lag or zoning lag in Cyrodil though. Just winning a big fight is extra satisfying knowing the other side probably has 60% of their players having to restart app.
