What do you think about CP in PvP?

    I think CP could've been designed in a better way.

    I feel offense should be more rewarding than defense which creates a much more healthy PVP environment. CP kind of works against this

    as long as magsorc is in its current state, I can't really talk about cp and balance in the same sentence.

    There is no point in having them in PVP other than that players at level cap feel they deserve the advantage over lowbies. Either put everyone to cap or remove them please.

    Look at the non CP campaigns...

    If you are a magicka build that is outside of zerging and not on a sorc or nightblade. You are just fodder for stamina based builds. Which actually speaks highly on the inherent imblancments between stamina and magicka builds in PvP.

    Since ZOS has been balancing the game around max CPs. Just taking out CPs without a huge and tall balance patch. Would more or less effectively delete most magicka base builds outside of the zerg from PvP.

    Also CPs is not the only culprit. Don't believe me look at some of those heavy armor gear sets. They have no place in this game because of have completely overpowered they are.

    Then let's not even forget to comment on the server issues with lag. Lag sometimes get soo bad that people mistake the poor server performance as CE abuse in progress.

    But yeah lets us all just blame PvP problems on CPs. Till ZOS gets rid of them in PvP. Only to find out the issues are just as bad if not worst afterwards, because build diversity would have been effectively killed off.

    Makes PvP (when its not laggy af) way easier, generally speaking. Dont like it for requiring less skill to be succesful in comparison to non-CP and enabling all those ridiculously strong builds.

    Having said that I do understand why people see the appeal in it. Its 'easy' and gives you that ultimate badass warrior feeling much faster. Taking your maxed out char from non-cp to cp is like having your char on steroids, cocaine and khat.

    Some time ago I completely switched from CP campaigns to nonCP and I will never look back.

    I don't agree that the whole game is built/balanced around CP. It's otherwise. In PvE the power creep of CP chars is real in both overland and dungeons. In PvP CP campaigns are just filled with cancer/unkillable builds ruining all the fun for those who don't use them.

    What a pity that this trashy gameplay found its way into BGs...

    Easy fix : eliminate both cp and non co campaigns,open 3 or 4 new campaigns with a lower maximum players cap and everyone inside would have the same cp (200,300,690..whatever some theorycrafter woulf find the most balanced).create a new cp menu for for your "pvp cp build".


    This way we would reduce the lag..and put everyone at equal cp.

    As an add d bonus it would probably get some mmo pvp'rs to try/re join the game since the pvp cp grind was gone.

    I like this idea. I too have contemplated what would happen if there was a campaign for each hundred champion points. Then we’d have one all cp campaign
