I am not getting double AP in BGs. I checked 3 battles. Two i came in second, one i won. I got the box for the win, but my AP gains are the same as they always have been. Am i missing something or did they break this like they literally do to everything else?

    Did you go to Cyrodiil and pick up the scroll. If so, is it active in your character screen?

    You also do not get the AP bonus when turning in BG quests. Still the lame 2k per.

    Nott stupid mental tasks. Just following the simple instructions provided.

    I do not see the need to get upset for not reading the post about it following the simple instructions.

    FYI, every single ESO event requires you do to a short quest (and follow simple instructions) to gain the benefit. Zos does not do things the way they do it in those old game. The ones we no longer play.

    Edit: forgot to mention I provided the link to the instructions above.

    That’s bull. There are several new campaigns alone, you cannot look me in the digital eye and truthfully say they’re all full. Nice try though

    Let’s say hypothetically they took over 3 minutes to get into. Every single one. That definitely beats the previously stated alleged 2 hours. You simply were wrong and got mad that you were wrong. It’s not the games fault you didn’t know.

    @Mattock_Romulus

    First of all I'm not the OP. Also, i don't have any issues with the quest. I'm not mad either. I'm calling bs on someone guaranteeing 3 minutes or less to log into a campaign during Midyear Mayhem on a weekend.

    Your claim that apparently all campaigns are *full* and have a queue at the same time is false and you know it. Either way, I’m done pointing out the fact that more than one campaign exists to people on this forum

    I get into campaigns instantly...

    I did this by going to campaigns and finding one that didn’t have 3 bars. Which is all of them except Shor and Vivec.

    I'm sure the queues are fast. My experience is seeing the long line for Vivec...deciding to load into a lesser populated campaign...disconnecting. Attempting to log back in, disconnect again...login finally get to the quest giver, get the scroll buff then finally go to the bgs with the AP buff. This was last night, it took about 30 minutes of fighting with the servers.

    Again, I'm not the OP. I don't mind having to repeatedly attempt to load into a campaign and crashing just to get a buff to play in the bgs...but it took more than 3 minutes.

    Bs. Go to a random guest campaign.

    This stuff is not hard people. So many of you have so much difficulty solving very basic problems.

    You mean these very obvious instructions...

    *We can plaster ads for crown store sales all over your screen but we cant bother to put up any information on an event that is running.

    *Hope that you read the launcher news which is useless most of the time, when it does load, then...

    * Follow launcher news to a vague article which gives ZERO indication that you have to do anything other than show up, then...

    * if you manage to find the tiny bolded part under the picture... it tells you how to start the quest, then...

    * You log in and get the quest from the crown store which only gives you a marker in cyro, then...

    * you have to faff with getting in the campaigns... so you can travel to cyro. Hope you dont get a queue. THEN....

    * you have to go to the quest giver do a stupid and pointless quest, THEN....

    *i have to use a buff scroll every 2 hours.

    Why do i have to do all this?

    Because ZOS is incompetent. I dont know about you but ive played dozens and dozens of MMOS. I have never had to faff so much for events than i do in ESO. If a game has an xp event they just crank up the xp globally for the event. You dont have to A, B, and C so you can X and then do Y, and Z so you can participate in the event. Its absolutely ridiculous.

    I shouldnt have to go to cyro to do the AP event. I dont do alliance war. i do BGs. Why cant they park the NPC in Vivec? The only worse place they could of put the NPC is in IC.
