The fact is, I'm not a PvP player, I don't like pvp per se.
I've been collectting the indrik feathers in the last 4 events, and now the only way to get the first berry for evolution is pvp? : /

I hope the Morrowind celebration lasts long enough and give enough tickets for 2 berries, because I won't be doing the Midyear Mayhem.
Pvp, just don't feel like it really -.-

    Berries are only available DURING the Event on which they are first introduced. After the Event they will be removed from the Impresario NPC.

    So IF you want the Indrik, you have to participate in the Event, doin a PVP Daily scout quest is actually very easy....time costly but easy ;)

    To get the 4 feathers requiring 40 tickets we had 80 ticket opportunities between the 4 events I would expect the same will occur this quarter.

    Of course, if you want to earn tickets this event it does seem likely you will have to do some PvP, but that is a choice, When this quarter ends we will have had a total of 8 events for the indrik and all but one have been PvE. Pretty good ratio.


    Especially since you do not have to participate in every event which means you do not have to do anything with this event as long as the overall design is like it was last quarter.

    The dailies that can be gotten in the towns require no pvp. They are the same as quests in any other zone. They just happen to be in a pvp-zone so you could run into othe players.

    I'm honestly hoping that influx of other people who don't normaly pvp will give me a chance to finish out that stupid BG kills achievement for red dye. I don't like pvp. I tried it more then once and what I realized that the only time I had fun was when playing with people I enjoyed in voice and even then, it wasn't the pvp I enjoyed, I still didn't like it. it was people.

    part of it is becasue i'm terrible at it and no I don't have any interest in improving as I just don't enjoy the entire concept of pvp in a first place, which would be the other reason why I tend to avoid pvp. hopeful with a whole bunch of is in it for the indrik, it may not be completely terrible. or.. it might still be terrible in which case... fml

    if it goes anything like imperial city did - there are going to be pvp trolls out in droves pending all their gaming time camping pve players trying to do their town quests.

    I mean... every time I've gone for skyshards inside the gates of other alliances in Cyrodil there was at least one person stealthing there with express purpose of killing you before you could finish grabbing that skyshard.

    Yeah, both skyshards and town quests have fixed places you have to go, so it's quite easy (and lame) to camp those places waiting for unwary players.
    Scout missions are safer cause you just have to get near enough to the resource and stand there for a bit (less than ten seconds).
    So IF you want the Indrik, you have to participate in the Event, doin a PVP Daily scout quest is actually very easy....time costly but easy ;)

    It's way better if you have maxed out mount speed training.
    Just look at the full map every now and then to make sure that you aren't crossing any ongoing battle and you can easily make the whole journey without meeting a soul.

    Kyne in off-hours?

    I mean if anyone takes their sub50 character, beefs him up and sit all night... well to be honest they deserve the gank B) .

    I mean, what you say might happen, but I find it just as likely that each alliance will own one campaign and it will be farming simulator for the duration of the event :)

    never ran into that but only did that then it has been very slow hours.

    You can also go as an group if in guild, but if all needed is on quest like an town daily or an recon mission I would just go for that. Note that joining zergs to earn some transmute crystals is also an good idea.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    If you can get to Bruma easily, it has some quests that are VERY easy to do after you arrive. My favorite is the one that can be completed in less than a minute inside the same house where it's given to you.

    Note: Bruma is in the north, about halfway between DC and EP base cities.

    middle of the night. afternoon. just about any time of the day. and that was outside of events. events for some reason seem to bring out the worst in people. and no, zerg is not protection either. a lot of the gankers just love top pick on stragglers falling behind. and following the zerg, means they don't have to do much looking.

    i'm hoping very much that with extra added campaigns it won't be as bad, but I'm not holding my breath here.

    thank you all for general suggestions of recon missions. still super time consuming but might be actualy doable with a bit less frustration.

    @ MaleAmazon. all my characters are 50 at this point. I've seen this type of ganking happen in vivec, I've seen it happen in shor and I've seen it happen in Sotha Sil. I tend to play during odd hours sometimes and occasionally a call would go out in guild that a gate is open if anyone wanted skyshards. very rarely would I manage to get those skyshards unmolested by gankers.

    honestly, this is probably why I don't mind BG as much as Cyrodil or especially imperial city. at least in battlegrounds you are going in with one express purpose. to kill other player characters. you are all there for the same reason, its fast running back to the spot where you died takes a few seconds instead of quarter of an hour it could take in Cyrodil, and no one is there to specifically ruin your playtime by preventing you from completing specific pve tasks.

    Ye... Only this is a complete bull.
    It's absolutely obvious that most of the time the reasons why players don't like PvE and PvP are completely different.
    PvE could be grindy and therefore boring for some players. But that could be easily overcome by most players because it's MMORPG. You just don't play MMORPG and expect to completely avoid any grind at all. People that can't stand it don't play MMORPG usually.
    But most people don't like PvP because is stressful, unpleasant, demanding. Because it's kind of the aim of PvP - being a maximum level problem and pain for other players. Of course some people can show a little restraint, but still a conflict is a core of PvP. While for PvE it's some continued process or even cooperation with other players.
    So no, it's not even closely the same thing and problem.

    It's a PVP event so if you want tickets, you do pvp activities just as any PVP player who wanted tickets during the PVE events had to do the rather dull quests for the basic Indrik.

    It's that simple.

    Comparisons between PvP players who have to PvE and the opposite are absurd. PvPers find PvE boring and tedious, but they don't have to contend with people who make it a full-time hobby preventing them from completing PvE objectives and they don't have to contend with the sort of hideous lag that Cyrodiil has. I WISH PvP was boring, I would take boring in a frickin' heartbeat over gank-trolls and lag and thousand mile rides to get back to one's spot.

    I don't PvP because I suck at it but I want the event tickets so I'm going to take someone in and see what happens LOL. If I get killed a lot oh well so what. One way or another I'mma get my tickets! Should be interesting to say the least.

    That is because your alliance attacked and opened the gate to start with and are an enemy in their territory.
    Most will let you grab the shard before killing you some will not.
    Suggest you stealth and use detect pots to make sure it is clear when approaching a shard inside a gate.
    Remember you aren't wearing an I am a PvE'r sign. lol

    You’re assuming that “some continued process or even cooperation with other players” is always a positive thing.
    Pve is painful to me cause I don’t want to cooperate with other people in the few hours I can play videogames as I have to do it the rest of the day. I want to play at my rhythms, not having to wait for others . But I completed almost every pve content cause I had to. So stop with that carebear attitude every time you’re forced to jump in pvp cause I don’t see pvp players complaining every time a trial drops some useful item.
