What's annoying about IC at the moment is that you can no longer leave a character there. If you log out in IC (or in Cyrdiil) you log back in to the game at your last location outside of Cyrodiil even if the campaign you were in is empty.

Before that only happened if the campaign was full.

So you could leave one of your characters there and log on to them when you wanted to continue working on whatever that character was doing regardless of how much time you had. Now you need to block off a chunk of time to make the trip worth it.

Been a while since I've been in IC, but theoretically, couldn't this be used to farm stones, log out and not have to worry about making it back to a safe zone to deposit said stones?

Edit- nvm, just got my answer above lol.

Yep, you should have the option to teleport straightly to the city rather than galloping through your alliance's entire zone to get there.

This ^^

In multiple other threads I lay out some ideas...

-Imperial City-
Should be removed entirely from the Cyrodil campaigns and be accessible via a PvE and PvP version.

I still think some campaigns should trigger access in the ways they do but that's for player choice.

Cyrodil needs to have a PvE non-campaign version but more of being broken into 3 parts for PvE only (still keep the PvP versions tho) and in a background sim that resets a few times daily, each PvE faction should be able to go in and play a castle siege with other players and NPCs to gain access to Imperial City.

I just think that makes sense......

Within Imperial City, you would keep the way it works for PvP and perhaps also have a PvE version but major adjustments need to apply

PvE version of IC and Cyrodiil? Wandering in an area that is supposed to be torn by warfare for the ruby throne and not seeing another opposing solider (or seeing them and not engaging in combat).... immersion broken

@VelociousLegend

People seem to read PvE version of Cyrodil and create some other concept.
PvE as in today when you're not in Cyrodil.....there are NPCs that you fight. The same would apply in a PvE version of Cyrodil, it would be more akin to Imperial City experiences minus other players...which would actually make more sense because no one has an account locked by factions whereas being at war with the same NPCs prior to One Tamriel made sense.

That concept, not yours

lol

There are plenty of other places to PvE without worry for getting murdered by other players. How about they fix the current PvP content before making new PvE centric versions of it...

@VelociousLegend

No where did any of my comments above suggest they should do what i commented because I’m hoping to avoid getting murdered.

Also perhaps you don’t comprehnd that a large part of the Cyrodil PvP issue is that it’s too much other stuff going on in the zone.

The actual solution would be to remove ALL PvE from Cyrodil literally as step 1.

Step 2: has to do with truly separating the cause and effects on any and all skills and attributes in PvE vs PvP.

Step 3: is going back to some of the original character designs where we were suppose to need others as some form of support as well as being required to not go 90% in any one focus....I think it was around 70% or so before you hit overcharged.


The game in terms of PvP has issues due to very poor developer decisions and a few influential devs leaving early on and the existing devs trying to change things away from what did work well

Imperial City was supposed to be like Darkness Falls in Dark Age of Camelot ...a PvE zone unlocked as a result of PvP where PvP occurred but only to flush out others.

Instead they changed that....a mess still in what they did.

I would love to see a pve version of city (mostly just to finish a damn group quest for skill point). They could also make it that person who goes to cap the flag becomes pvp killeable.

I am perfectly fine with 50% reduction, but they should increase loss from monsters then. (to make it a bit challange)
Cp version would have it reduced, while non-cp version would be for low lvls.

Now the reason why pve version? There are people araund that will group up in zerg and just go araund the city, wiping anyone on map. Personaly they should make pvp version more rewarding when solo and huge drop when in party of zerg. For example:
1 player = 50% of enemy player stones
2 players = 10% of enemy player stones split to each person
3 players = 3% of enemy player stones split into 3

I'd love to be able to transit directly there without having to connect through a Campaign first. The Imperial City should have it's own instance, and the players inside shouldn't take up slots in the Campaigns.

Plus I'd LOVE to be able to PvE there in peace for once..

Yes!

It needs its own population counter that is separate from cyro.
