Battleground match (death match) what kills you the most?

also to the cc, 4-8 on 1 thats what kills me the most

You can CC break it and get 6 seconds immunity to CC. Was told you in the Tutorial.

No you can't. In an ideal world, yes. The reality is though, that doesn't work most of the time. I have been CCed over and over and over by talons, rune cage, and Gripping Shards, unable to move until the CC party resulted in my death, even in spite of Unstoppable pots and a full stam bar.

Yeah that does suck, wish cc immunity worked better.

Usually comes down to team dynamic for me. If I'm running with a good team that sticks together then I hardly die at all. If my team ends up being more loosey-goosey then I inevitably find myself up against a 3-DK premade or at the very least another team that CAN stick together, and I just get outnumbered and die, which is completely expected and not really what I would call bad balance. There's definitely no one ability that overwhelmingly contributes to losses, though that sorc execute definitely pops up more than often, albeit because it's a "killstealing" delayed execute and not specifically because it's OP on its own.

Generally a good strong breeze is good enough to take me down. It used to be a light breeze but I spent some time in Battle Grounds trying to get my Caltrops available and any other PVP skill. Now I have them for when I want them and so I will likely not go back.
PVE all the way.
... maybe if I get all the PVE achievements done before they put out Elder Scrolls 6 then I might try more PVP, but I am happy for now.

This and infinite beetles. I don't know where all these stam wardens are coming from, but every match I die at least once to some beetles popping out of the ground.

RedRook · October 2018

Stambois. Although sometimes a magsorc steals it with fury, which I have to admit amuses me.

Lag

A lot of my deaths are my own fault but the only ones that truly *** me off are based on lag.

I.E. Bar doesn't swap fast enough, fps drops because too much AoE on screen, desyncs with Snipe that you can't do anything about, etc.

Bolded part really REALLY makes me salt my pants.

Case in point what kills you the most, meant to add more (goofed up my bad : P ) but just describe what kills you the most or attributes the most to what gets you killed.

The CC/stun crap is usually what kills me. The classic CC and pile on tactic that pretty much dominates every MMO PvP system I've seen. Which is one of the reasons I was excited when this game first came out, since it had reliable CC immunity from immovable (or maybe it was unstoppable, I can't remember) and I thought I was actually going to get to move around and play my character. But like most cool things, didn't take them long to nerf it.

I'll never understand this fascination with killing players who can't move, or why developers (and many players) think it's such awesome game play.

It’s usually pretty good players that are DK’s or Wardens. Never had any trouble against sorcs, sure as hell won’t now because there won’t be any in pvp.

It is a way some people are cheesing some really tough and very great pvp players while being incredibly weak and using cheap tactics which requires no skill to use. It doesn't really showcase the full capabilities of what a person can be or achieve. It doesn't promote the motive to actually learn the game.

In any other MMO, CC is used as a defensive measure.
You throw a CC on someone, and it prevents them from fighting. And if damage is done to that person, it breaks the CC.
Sheep (the cc spell used by mages in WoW) is a great example of this. The player is out of the fight for a timed duration, but if hit, it cancels the CC.
ESO is the only game I know of that uses this for offensive purpose. Even that wouldn't be such a bad thing if break free and cc immunity actually worked, instead of mashing break free repeatedly before half your health (or more) is gone and you get jumped by the rest of the opposite team.
With passive dodge gone, battlegrounds are going to be CC nightmare, even more so than now. Immovable potions only get you so far..

WeyounTM · October 2018

This one mostly dies due to this one being old and pretty mediocre in PvP. But yeah, those reasons in the poll might help a bit at times

It's the same concept, just in reverse.

Turn one player into a sheep so everyone can pile onto the other player. Though at least the guy getting gang beat can move in that example. And WoW had plenty of CC like abilities that were used offensively. For example: you're lucky you never had the pleasure of being loaded up with damage over time effects then feared over and over again by warlocks while your health melted away and you were unable to control your character.

It was quite annoying.

Why are these polls never have an option that the other player is just better. Always assuming brocken sets/poisons/lags or exploits. Lol. The typical gamer excuse. "Wasnt my fault!!"

that's definitely why i die every time. there's no way around it, no doubt about it.
but after about 20 months of trying my best to learn about PvP, i've at least learned to identify the thing that most often gets me. yeah, if you didn't show up with carry-over skills or inborn talent, you might spend the first 18 months in PvP getting wrecked so fast you can't even figure out what hit you, but after trying really hard for a long time you might be able to get a little bit specific about your weaknesses.

i'm still too often surprised getting hit more than i expected by more people than i thought would be hitting me, and after spending a while tuning my configuration and sets of responses for my survivability and that of my teammates, i'm now sure that my magplar only dies when his magicka drains faster than i'm using his skills.

that must be from poisons, right? please someone correct me if i'm wrong.

(i'm also still too dumb to use poisons myself. no point in correcting me there; i already know i'm wrong there.)

It's definitely poisons, and they're becoming useless for anyone but healers next patch, so you're fine. Keep your reagents for potions.
