BGs are basically broken.....

Duukar · June 2018

Double CC.... Have fun getting CCed then 2 seconds later after breaking free apparently getting CCed by incap again???

Sloads galore.... Worst idea in the history of the game..

Players using as much cheese as possible. See above - and add mag sorcs X 4 with runecage spam with meteor... Smart there is no counter play there..

Crazy weird lag or something.. Break free wont fire and skills dont fire then you are dead. i dont even get what this issue is....

Basically BGs need looking into BIG TIME..

It really isnt fun to play them anymore...

Seems like a severe case of premature skyreach carries resulting in terminal case of L2p . Id say u have about 2 months to ctrl alt delete

TBH i'd say worst idea in the history of gaming would be having nuclear silos that gamers can take over and shoot anyone on the map randomly..

Just saying..

I always have good scores in BGs. My best was 27-3-16 on my stamblade. Hundings and spriggs and validreth with sword and board.

Atm this isn't about L2P it's about L2deal with stupid imbalance and server performance. Teams of 3 and 4 sorcs spamming over load with runecage and meteor and sloads.

Literally 90% of my death recaps include at least one instance of sloads.

Does anyone have any idea wtf is going on with CC Break and just CC in general? It feels way different and worse than it ever has.

The 5 minute loadscreens and players you can’t target are much more annoying.

Yeah one guy had sloads on a dk with zaan. He pm me as to why I tbagged him when I killed him. I told him bc ppl like him ruin the best part of the game for me which is small scale pvp.

I always lmao when I see someone tea bagging me. I just picture Nicholas Cage playing eso.

Mr. Cage will be the one tea bagging people because of some random slight that he noticed but no one else cares about. Poor Mr. Cage takes everything so personal and always loses his *** over it.

LMAO gg Mr. Cage

Suck it up, find a way to win...obviously some people are still winning, so its possible. This is what PvP is...finding a way to win.

So he had sloads and zaan, and you killed him anyway. Then you break out the tbag, even though his sloads/zaan didn't kill you? I guess I don't see the problem with sloads since you won anyway.

in this case "yes" i agree and have to say "well said" to your comment.

every patch i have to adjust my build and change things slightly to stay a contender, as do we all.
somewhere along the way we have all been fooled into thinking it is normal and balanced and "ok" for 1 person to be able to fight an entire zerg and an entire group of people.
that idea is not only foolish but it also promotes elite-ism, and just plain destroys a game intended for ALL people to come and have fun instead of Death in 2 seconds from overpowered bad build.

Drawing at straws, yes? I didn't tell you how many times he killed me with that setup did I?

WreckfulAbandon · June 2018

I've been queuing for BG's since ZOS added motif pages to the daily rewards. 6/11 toons a day is all I can stomach, I build for CP but 6 have setups which aren't terrible in no-CP. The drop rate is abysmal, and fact that they are singular styles (light/med/heavy) is an utter slap in the face even if I enjoyed BG's. Which I don't at all. My stamplar is pretty much perma OOS and I always get matched with the one or two guys who decided to que at CP level 25. And when I manage to get second place with a team of potatoes and a mountain of effort and don't get the daily reward, it really pisses me off.

The only thing fun about BG's is when my magsorc gets a deathmatch... and that's not good as it's merely shifting my frustration onto others (including teammates sometimes

)

redshirt_49 · June 2018

Yeah CC immunity and break free in general has been broken for over a year now. And it is not isolated to PvP, it's not working right across the board. Only thing for it is to pop immovable potions like candies I'm afraid.

Ankael07 · June 2018

How is any of this specific to BGs ? All of them have been occurring in Cyrodiil even before BG release

I dont see problem with tbag any people wearing stuff like this
if you finally win with him then its good point to show him how much he is disgusting pvp if tbagging player will tell him for what it was

that was same like years ago with cancerblades proc meta or tankremorcancer meta, everyone of them deserved tbag just for this "exploiting" stupid sets destroying any part of fun on pvp

at all yes I can also wear those stupid sets but you know what? for me its not fun and no any pleasure when my armor is killing people, not me and especially if killing someone less skilled without these cheese sets I just felt very bad while I was using these sets to see how is playing with it

That’s not only inaccurate in terms of OW Cyrodiil, but this thread is specifically about Battlegrounds. There are no “entire zergs” in there. And yes, a 1v4 or 1v5 is pretty normal when the 4 or 5 players are below average players. Of course it’s ok for one person to take on 4 or 5 other players and win. It has nothing to do with the idea of “overpowered builds”. No “overpowered build” whatsoever will enable a bad player to 1vX easily. You’re just defending crutches to overcome skill gaps.

AgentOrangeR · June 2018

Sorry, but what does cheese and tea bagging mean in this context? I'm trying to learn the lingo

MakoFore · June 2018

yeah BG highlights how imblanced the game is in so many ways- they havent addressed any of the complaints poeple have had- just swap arbritrarilay bertween cp and non cp- they have no idea of how to blanace this game- how to addreess the combat issues- let alone how to improve them.

the CC imunity is so broken. as players we use the CC immunity as a reference of when to attack- when to burst - and when to conserve , etc. time and time again- i ll get CC'd, then think- great- i can go full offensive for a few seconds- only to be CC'd again. these guys are the defiinition of incompetent . what else would u call a game company that hasnt improved combat in 4 years. new players will enjoy everyting- as its great- but endgame is worse than ever- where performance matters.

ArchMikem · June 2018

Whats best is when a team targets you and you get hit by a flame reach, a frozen weapon, then a shock reach and a *** ton of force pulses in between. Knock back, immobilized, knock back, dead.

Cheese = a setup that utilizes unbalanced or bugged set items that are known to be overpowered (example: Malubeth monster set when the heals could be up to 14k, Viper when it damaged instantly and from ranged attacks).

Teabagging = trying to infuriate your victim after you killed him by moving over his body and crouching rapidly. The finer art of teabagging uses emotes such as /shovel or alternates. A lot of people find teabagging to be offensive because of a) the inherent message that you are a scrub, b) it’s the punishment for using cheese (see above), of even c) it somehow resembles a sexual connotation.

There is also the epitome of showing you’re a scrub: That’s teabagging someone after you Xv1‘ed him and the teabagger did nothing in the fight at all.

not sure if serious, but I'll fall for it.

this set "sload" is seen as a "cheese".
(Origins of the gaming term “cheese strategy” vote 22. 2. In a gaming scene the word cheese is used to describe strategies or ways of playing that are really powerful and do not require much skill from the players side at the same time)

because sloads is good for both magicka and stamina builds (first 4 stats hit both). but also the proc does oblivion damage, which cannot be ignored/blocked/countered. makes it a very powerful set.

proc sets are powerful in pvp, because normal damage is nerfed a lot, and burst damage is key. so a set that can proc a damage skill is often of advantage, as it fires on top of damage the player is already doing. monster sets like zaan, and selenes are popular for this reason. i also rate caluuns legacy, but the difference is sload can be custom made as it is craftable 6 trait set.

and tea bagging is once again crouching repeatedly over the enemies corpse to represent the sexual act of placing ones "nut-sack" in anothers mouth repeatedly in a fashion mimicking a teabag being dipped in and out of a cup of hot water.

AgentOrangeR · June 2018

yes, the question was serious, as I'm just getting into PVP and am a noob. So thank you both for the explanation!

100% justified and worthy tbag. I absolutely love fighting players and having to really struggle to figure out what they’re wearing—instead of just seeing the usual debuffs and fire-beams.

What’s most irritating is that people told ZoS, when each of these sets were introduced, HOW HORRIBLE they were. Yet here we are.
