That might, possibly, seem like a good idea in a duel. Maybe.

Throw that into a Battlegrounds, and you get something worse than CP BGs, where you can't effectively kill your opponent in a decent length of time.

In Cyrodiil, what would happen is that an organized raid with coordinated healers now has 50-100k health each, constant healing if they need it, group buffs, and now more damage. Their opponents are still unorganized zergs, with more health, but no more organization or teamwork than before.

Everything would just take loooonger because you've increased health by a much higher factor than you did damage. That sort of knock down, drag em out fighting is one of the reasons CP BGs got reverted.


If this is intended to respond to a perceived problem with ganking or a low TTK, honestly...you need better situational awareness, you need to be healing proactively in fights, and you need to practice more until you can recognize commonly used skills which will increase your reaction time. Much of PVP reactions are less "I see this, I use this skill in response" and more "I see X skill, so my opponent is a sorc, which means their next combo is Y and Z, so I do A and B right now." Or like ganking - I get hit on my mount and don't think I can outrun it? Block, roll dodge, heal - immediately, without waiting to see my health bar drop.

It does take practice. When I was learning to PVP on my healer, I wore Plague Doctor, running around with 45k health until I learned how to survive. Now I run with 28k health in light armor and have about the same survivability...because now I know what I'm doing.

So if you need to learn how to survive, fight, and learn to recognize common tactics and your response to them, by all means, go tanky. But I think trying to make all of PVP get tons of extra health is not the right way to do it.

Structured Entropy would become a near-mandatory frontbar skill.

My God, how long would every fight take?

ZOS would increase siege damage once again

Would it eliminate health bonus food? What good is another 5k health added to 70k when your other stats could definitely use more of everything in a longer fight?

TTK nowadays is in alltime high I dont know why you re even suggesting it considering we are in such a Tank meta already. You just have to get good.

You’re looking at this backwards. TTK is at an all time high because everyone is forced to spec like a tank (unless you’re a sorc with broken burst).

Tanks are supposed to have a hard time killing anyone, instead it’s the status quo for almost all classes. PvP for almost all classes is tank up and wait to try and burst someone.

Take away the weapon damage buff on sword and board, change battle spirit to a 10k health buff instead of 5k and add a mundus stone for crit resists and bam. Problem solved, and pvp is more accessible for pve players because they don’t have to collect a full set of impenetrable gear.

100k is excessive, but changing it to 10k makes sense.
