    I disagree. If you play on PC/NA there is only 1 primetime. North American prime time.

    In general, I agree with Stridig (90% of the time, dude has a good grasp of human nature). You Oceanics, though..... that's a damn mess. NA or Eu? Ping difference, gotta be a toss up. Still, If you're going to play NA, you've got to look for pop surges based on east coast/west coast times- simple numbers.Same on EU.
    A lot of disingenuous back and forth goes on here about who night caps and why; the Aussies always end up in the middle....because they're literally in the middle. Until there's an Oceanic server, that's just the way it's going to be. I don't follow the EU forums, but I bet Aussies get the same grief there. We all tend to look at things from our own perspective without checking our ego and stopping to think what it would be like if we had started "over there".

    Honestly, idgaf about night capping or pvdoor - those are population/time zone issues. Gate camping is BS, no idea what to do to discourage it (discuss). Aside from that, people just need to get over themselves. Some folks are going to be team players, some are going to do their own thing, and some are going to do both.

    FFS people, we do this for fun

    Can we get a room?

    All of us?

    You haven't seen hot until you've seen a middle aged man rock himself back to sleep trying to get out of bed because of his big round belly. Now that's hot.

    Alright what is up with keep degradation?
    We seiged Dragonclaw a while back, took all resources and the wall health was still at 600k+. Is this just a Dragonclaw thing or am I understanding keep degradation wrong? Would appreciate it much if someone explained ...

    They're completely borked.

    They don't behave with any semblance of intuitive logic, so if they are working as designed....that's not great.

    A keep door in Vivec stopped taking damage at 27% despite having tons of siege on it. Posterns flicker in and out of quantum entanglement. People have fallen through walls out of the map.

    I feel ya An-An... flagging those outers (Drake is same) takes forever now...

    Here is what the PVP dev said about it in that thread linked.
    Walls are sometimes reporting above their intended 305k (at max upgrade levels) that matches prior update max HP levels. We are looking into this issue along with the HP rubber-banding at level 0 to level 1.

    Still got postern bug on the daily and instead of patch even addressing that, it’s ignored and more buggy walls introduced and keep recalls stones added... go figure :|

    The keep walls phasing in and out in different configurations gives Cyrodiil a surreal quality these days. It's like Sheogorath has decided to mess around there for his amusement.

    Yeah watched the wall's health at Chal fluctuate. Does zos test anything or is it just PTS?

    Do they listen to feedback? Do they cherry pick to push out content opting, to later, try and fix the bugs that they deem a secondary or tertiary problem?

    Also, good to see an AD presence in Kyne again. The AvA was getting old, nice to have AD back to mix things up.

    I'm one of the old-school who simply doesn't faction-flip... Don't really know why, but that's just how I play it.
    AD really has some issues with large guild leaders with even larger egos - that's why a load of decent players swapped factions. My choice to remain, and I'll live with it. However, there are still some really excellent AD players out there who can hold their own with anyone.

    Most of the time when I log-on the map is usually blue, and on rare occasions when it's not, it's half red/blue. Got on last night and reds were gate-camping (you know the fella, sounds like a Brazilian martial art) and a few prevented two of us AD from attempting recapture. This struck me as odd, as DC had most the scrolls, and were attacking an EP home keep at the time. We got it back. All's fair in Cyro - I'm not a hypocrite like others.

    I have no issue with any of this, as it's AvA, and as stated earlier it will allways change. It allowed me to earn a ton of AP and have some great fun during the night! What was amusing though, was the salty whispers from EP toons when we ignored DC and chased them all the way back to their gates. Had even more fun running a scroll and a small group beat team purple to get it home... tight group of six AD which included two really new learners.

    Keep up the activity, and remain salty - it's great fun trolling the thickos.

    I do not have the money or the mats to craft cp 160 gear for myself every time I want to experiment with new builds and classes , so that’s the biggest reason I reroll in Kyne.

    Plus I hate having to grind for dungeon/trial gear for that Proc sets advantage...

    I am a terrible player. Ball zerging is the only way I can get anything done.

    Edit: In all seriousness, I happen to enjoy all types of gameplay, be it large or small scale :)

    The key is to remember that WW heavy attacks are hugs, and hugs are peaceful.
